Whats wrong with these premier league managers/players (some of) are they not earning more than enough money without all this crap? If true then the FA need to stamp down NOW. Sack & ban all those involved. Greedy bastards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCulturalBomb Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 It writes itself doesn't it, no one in the game at the top is clean, all have murky dealings and a chequered past. I would do the job, but I have urinated In public before, so that rules me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Port Said Red Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Was always a worry of mine when they went with an "old school" option. A lot of these people who have been in the game a while seem to have baggage. We need new fresh younger coaches and managers, not the big and little Sams in the set up.

Stortz Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Well this is of no surprise whatsoever. Well done FA, well done. Someone had better send a corset to R Benitez in Newcastle, for I believe his sides have just split. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbored Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Allardyce was suspected when at Bolton for being a dodgy character where money was concerned. This kinda proves it. He gone I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorenzos Only Goal Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Hahaha that didn't take long, He was at it at Bolton, Preston, Blackpool and Blackburn none of the fans of those teams have much love for the guy. To be honest glad its happened now rather than in the middle of the qualifiers or a critical part of the international calender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lenred Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Although not great, if you get past the headlines and look at the details it's nowhere near as bad as its being made out to be. Advising on countries where 3rd party ownership is still utilised is hardly the biggest crime in the world and his comments on Neville, Roy and Wembley are hardly groundbreaking! Slap on the wrist I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidercity1987 Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Surely everyone knows Allardyce has a history for this. Im sure the likes of Ferguson were the same. I doubt he'll be sacked, if morals were a consideration he wouldnt have got the job in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodjias Wrist Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Im sure there are loads of other managers and agents up to no good but typical of our media to go for the international manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slap on the wrist I reckon. I agree. Hardly a crime to point out that Wembley is a needless financial burden is it? Or that the players are shot psychologically. It might actually help find out which ones are up for the fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1414England Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Not saying what he has done isn't wrong but the Press just hate to see England do well don't they, all they ever seem to do is put pressure on the players/team or try and f*** is up as much as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bard Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 The England Managers who've been hounded out for non-footballing reasons (Venables and Hoddle) were clearly doing a good job. It's obviously too early to judge Allardyce but what is really clear now is that he has some enemies in the game and in the media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Speaking the truth and speaking as the figurehead of the national side are two polar opposites. Would imagine he'll keep his guard and subsequently be far more non committal going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One that doesn't pander to them. If he's clever, he'll stoke footballing controversy with his next squad to divert attention from all this. Expect his next squad to not have Rooney or Cahill.
