Allardyce, Stay or Go?

[SwedishBaggie]

Go.

[phild]

I want him gone, bye

[calvinboy]

I want him gone. I'd be delighted with Wilder. I'd be pleased with Bilic or a reasonable facsimile.

I have a hard time seeing us going straight up. We are severely lacking at fullback, midfielder and striker. I hope that I'm wrong.

[Barrera]

I would keep Big Sam - if backed he will bring us straight back up. The one thing he has proven is he can spot decent players and deal in the transfer market. If he goes Wilder could be a good (but not exciting IMO) option.

If alladyce stays we'll go up as champions any one else coming in and we’ll be middle to bottom

So alladyce to stay

With Fat Sam we can defend our way out of the Championship rather than needing three goals every game to get a result.

With him in charge we’ll win a lot of games 1-0 and 2-0 next year rather than always needing to score to get at least a point.

I think that the team needs to be rebuilt and if that takes more than one season, then so be it. The first question, though, is would Sam want to stay? If Lai intends to sell off our most valuable players and pocket the proceeds, then I expect that he will decline the ‘opportunity’ to put a team together with little or no money to spend. The Telegraph today reported that both Burnley and Newcastle are interested in Kyle Bartley; should there be any truth in that, then he will be gone, leaving another hole to be filled.

Unless Lai and his pals commit to putting appropriate resources into a new team, the question as to whether we want to keep Sam is academic.

FOL

[billsbest]

Definitely keep Sam. He knows our squad and where we need improving.

[DaveP67 is back!]

Under the circumstances with our owner we should keep Allardyce, Lai will rape the club in the next transfer window.

[TipperaryBaggie]

Totally agree with Ketts. What's the point of keep going up and down like a whore's drawers? We need to go through a proper rebuild and stabilising period and, if that takes more than one season then so be it. When we go up next time, we need to have a team in place that can be competitive in the higher league.
