    ‘Jealous, because that should be me there.’

    Allardyce said at the end of the England manager programme that has just finished on BBC 2. The bloke has no shame. Tried to play down what he said in the sting saying the FA should have waited before sacking him. God awful person who has no conscience.

    Appalling man, he is. Arrogant, deluded, hubris beyond belief.

    What a shithouse.

    I don't get the hatred for him. I also think he was set up and done up like a kipper in order to have him taken out of the England set up.
    Just my thoughts but the man has done nothing wrong in the overall aspect of the game.
    There's no criminal act, just perks of the game that more than likely most would take advantage of.

    The issue only becomes an issue when one or two people become the target of media manipulation, obviously on the back of a nudge nudge from somewhere higher up to discredit someone in order for them to be taken out of the equation.

    I honestly and truthfully do not understand the hate for Allardyce.

    Besides his family, close friends and cronies there's possibly only you and him in the whole country with those views.

    What about a conspiracy theory about what he was up to when he was appointed to the England job?

    Basically he got his fingers caught in the cookie jar. As England Manager you have to be squeaky clean and he should have declined the meeting.

    My view is that he is a dinosaur of a manager perfectly suited for the England job. Fan power got him ousted at Everton but he will find another job somewhere.

    Not that he needs another job the amount of times he has been paid off with huge lumpers but greed is a strange thing that’s how he got caught out with the England Sting he might be remorseful but he has nobody to blame but himself.

    Do you know what he was up to?

    O.K. Terry, you've hit the nail on the head. It's a conspiracy theory.

    Big Fat Sam gets himself appointed to lucrative long term contracts and then contrives to very quickly and under suspicious circustances get himself sacked.

    You must admit he's been very successful at it.

    I wonder if Ghost can theorise about his total payoffs in his wealth career. He must be one of the best paid managers for a total of bungs and pay offs.

    He should have. He fell for the sucker punch but he still done nothing illegal...just immoral if we have to go down a certain path.
    Then we have to look at Erickson and Venables, etc.
    My thoughts are, some people did not want him in the England set up because, maybe he wasn't a yes man.
    My own personal thoughts.

    Dinosaur in age or something else?

    Yep and I hope it comes back to seriously bite them, because the man was brought into do a job. He did that job and got scattered.

    Greed is rife throughout football. Allardyce may well be greedy but then again name me footballers that aren't...or managers, etc?
    As for being paid off with lumpers. That's not his fault. That's the fault of clubs who pay him off when he's under contract.
    People are finding ways to simply hate him and I honestly do not know why.

    He might be arrogant and he might bull himself up but so what. He gets the job done for what he's asked to do.
