Can see him not be as focused on tomorrow as the weekend, to stay up they have to beat Newcastle at the weekend, he targets games, he is known for it and openly admits it, his target will be Newcastle, he will give us a walk over

He'll block out the defence and try and nick a point. But you're right that Newcastle is their big game that He'll concentrate on.
 
Recalling his time at Everton, where he won 10 of his 26 matches, Allardyce said: "I would have liked to have seen where I could have taken it.

"I went there when they were struggling badly, rocking on the bottom of Premier League, and finished eighth. No-one at Everton expected that.

"In the end, they made the decision to move me on. I won't comment on whether they got it right. There have been more managers since I have been there and they have got it going in the direction they want to go - but it has taken a long time.

"As time goes by, as disappointed as you might be, you learn to accept it. I had the privilege of being there, even though it was only for a short period of time and I wanted it to be longer."

Genuinely though, "No one expected it" to finish 8th... behind the great, great Burnley.

I mean, to this day, I'll never forget the reaction following the defeat to Burnley, and the players just looking terrified at the away fans walking past, with Allardyce getting some fully deserved abuse... and yet he never even looked at us.

Tosser.

"I won't say whether they got it right".

Pretty sure we did. We have Carlo and he has continued to be a relegation manager. If he had done as good a job as he thinks he did, even a half decent club would have gone for him.

He shored up a terrible defence in the first half dozen games which was needed and then that was it. No attempt to make a go of it at all. Just dour uninspirational turgid football. Walcott and Tosun were expensive options to bolster the squad for a short term fix and we're still paying for them now. He managed to get us to 8th? Whoop de doo - with that squad, all he had to do was watch other teams implode below us. I am absolutely certain that if he'd have had the next season then we'd have been doing the same and then a la Bolton having half a dozen games when we were safe to play a bit.

Not Everton standard. A regrettable time for us.

We only got 8th because Leicester lost the last 2 or 3 game.
Amazing way utter rubbish managers can come up with
Took over when we were 13th bet Huddersfield 1-0 and went 9th and stayed there till the last day of the season
I went to the match against Newcastle.paid £6 for my ticket in the GS end right behind the goal and the 5 seats either side of me where empty and the row behind me was totally empty. So much so a girl was running back and forth singing and dancing.
Had he stayed on the next season the stadium would have been as empty as it is now

We did well in his first few games then gradually we didn't attack at all. If he wanted to stay in his job we could have averaged more than 1 shot a game. Amazing how he thinks we could have trusted him to stay on.
