Sam Allardyce

[Eggsyblueskin]

Look I get it, you hate Sam Allardyce...

We won 2-0, any other manager you would be happy but it's big Sam...

Are you going to stay and applaud him next week?

Just listening the phone-in on Radio Merseyside and the first few callers are queuing up to defend him!

We’ve won mate, those same lads queuing up to defend him will be the first ones on the radio if Southampton beat us screaming for his head.

Garth Crook saying we have gall for wanting pieman out. That's the lowest this club has been in my lifetime.

Garth crooks hates us to

Garth Crooks always hated us as ta club - the fact he is praising Sam - he just wants us to fail in the future !

 

[bring the ghost on]

he's staying mate.

SIMPLE. AS. THAT

It's really not that simple. There is a very good chance he'll go. It's not guaranteed, but it's probably still odds on that he'll be replaced in the summer.

That’s the thing mate, a 2-0 away win, I should be buzzing, but it’s like, meh.

Haven’t felt this way for a long time, but the seasons end can’t come sooner enough for me, that’s the plus point after today’s game, there’s only 2 more games to go.

But Lou, any optimistic anticipation about next season, always a wistful summer daydream of mine, is almost certain to be taken away from us when we are officially informed he will be seeing out the final year of his contract.

Sigh.... I know as soon as I posted this you would say that.

I am not questioning your intelligence or anything I am saying that you must be about 3 years old if you think we have never had a manager in your lifetime who has not taken a defeat before a ball was kicked.

Were you not born when Moyes was here? Or Smith? We threw a derby under Moyes for example.

Make sense now?

Sigh... Don't post it then.

Ok, yes it's happened in the past, not on such a regular basis. We have always at least showed some passion and fight against the top clubs but this season there's just nothing there.

sam on the radio asked about him saying hes here next season,while i am very confident,i have never said that,never say never,,,on radio merseyside

There ya go....that is what we are up against

 

[Sy-]

Gotta admit, bringing on Funes Mori as soon as he saw them readying Depoitre was sensible, that could have ended very differently had he nicked a goal.

We have always at least showed some passion and fight against the top clubs but this season there's just nobody there.

I think you're suffering from memory loss.

Genuinely disappointed in some of our fans.
Look, none of us really want Sam Allardyce managing our club. There's no dressing that up. And you could argue as well that other managers could have turned out situation around.

But he was given a specific job to do and he's done that job. No, it's not been pretty. But when we've tried to play expansive, "front foot" football (as Unsworth described it) we've been absolutely webbed by crap teams.

Booing managers should be reserved for when they're doing a terrible job and endangering the club. Allardyce has stabilised us, made two very good signings, and got us into the top half. That's not a sackable or booable offence.

I hope he's gone next season. I do. But he's a million miles from being someone we should be angry at.
The football we were playing at the start of the season was horrendous too, remember.

Can we all just finish this situation off in a dignified manner? A simple, "thanks for trying Sam, you're not for us for the long term, but cheers" would be fine.

I think you're suffering from memory loss.

What I mean is even though we are generally gash, we usually at least pick up some points against them, especially at home, even sneak a win or 2 but we haven't even given it a go at all this year. So many children on here who like to insult people.

Its not my fault you couldn't work out what I meant! I thought it was pretty obvious!

When have we shown some passion and fight against top sides then? Moyes was well known for rolling over more often than not. Our record against the "big clubs" for the past 25 years has been an utter disgrace. It is certainly nothing new is it?
