It would seem they are looking at keeping him.Sad but that's how far down we have come.That would be a huge, huge mistake.
This will be the litmus test for me. If he is bigging up the club and making conciliatory noises to the fans then I think we are in bother because he'll be staying and we'll have a year on the bleach. If he carries on with his usual "me, me, me, the 15 fans on social media who don't like me are idiots" then he'll be on his bike and we can all have a cold beer.Be prepared for the big Charm Offensive from Allardyce .
I think it will be a big indicator he's been told by the club to tone it down if he has any hope of being kept on.
Personally I hope he carries on Wumming and Popcorning us ....then bye bye.

And that is top level coaching spread over >40 years ? I have worked all over the Nordic countries and believe me the level when he was there was barely professional, those leagues you mention are still at a very poor standard compared to the top leagues. Its the Sam thing he has been around for ages(and is English) therefore must be boss. Have you ever thought that he coached at these minor league because no decent league would touch him with a bargepole.
Sam can not and will not stay in charge, he’s lost the fans and no manager survives when they lose the fans, even Wenger went in the end

He's going to be here next season isn't he![]()
If you want a bit of a giggle, have a look at this little exchange with Everton Fan Services here, a few beauties especially the comment from Gary Shaw.
Well said my droogie!I think that year will just be next season, which he already had anyway, and not givin him a fresh contract that gives him the season after. Either way i can see this, the officials want results, and from the spot that Koeman left us to where we sit now they will see as a result. No other side who changed managers last season moved forward as much as we did
He won’t do that, windy.....magnanimity ain’t in his DNA.
He will continue to sneer at us whether he is on his last legs or not.
Unfortunately yes, IMO
And with a year’s contract extension I would bet![]()
