Allardyce leaves job after Telegraph sting

[aguero93:20]

Still think that Beanie's making will be as England Manager.

Edited for accuracy.

Fucking LOL. This isn't about paying tax mate. But trust me, even if he's using a few tax avoidance tactics, he'll still be contributing a lot more to the tax man than you or me put together![/QUOTE im not sure about that,seems like the kind of man that waits till last orders in weatherspoons till he gets his round in ,if atall

 

[remember arthur mann]

Sorry Sam....

There's investigative reporting, which is important and there's newspapers trying to make news by setting people up. There's been all the fake sheik crap in the news recently which is a good example.

Some people will say and do things in certain environments that they wouldn't necessarily do, maybe playing bertie big bollocks or whatever.

Had I read something that Allardyce had said that was clearly dodgy then I'd have a different view. In my opinion he was a dick for going to the meeting, and yes, he's a greedy twat but what has he actually done wrong (other than being a greedy dick).

The fact that the paper haven't printed anything about the other 10 managers suggests that none of them did anything wrong either, but the paper have spent a fortune trying to get a story that wasn't there so embarrassing Fat Sam is better than nothing. They've got plenty of headlines so something out of nothing.

I think you will find that this is just a marketing ploy - they release the Fat Sam stuff day one, then drip feed the rest to keep the interest levels up.
Having spent 10 months investigating why blow the whole lot on one day when you can get days and days of headlines and attention out of it.
To be honest, I am far more interested in who the 10 managers are than the Fat Sam info. You can tell he is a sleaze without needing the Telegraph reporters to show you!

Yes but Kun can play football !

And Allardyce can manage apparently.

Looking at the betting for next England manager you wonder how many of them might get a special mention as they seem to think another 10 managers may be part of the telegraph investigation.
Love how the telegraph make the story and every other paper as long as it says daily telegraph can copy it word for word !

England could do a lot worse than a GNev and Giggsy combo if BFS decides to do the honourable thing and fall on his sword.

Give it Giggsy till the end of the season?

If someone was offering £400,000 for four one day events and his employer OK'd then why the fuck not?

Aguero gets £10m odd from us every year and still nearly doubles that from sponsorships etc.

Yet funnily enough, no one gives a fuck.

Pushing the rules and boundaries so you can earn more than the fortune you already get? It's pure greed mate, is £4,000,000 a year not enough? Aguero earns his money legitimately. I don't think it's the 4 day event that anyone is arsed about it's more the notion that Fat Sam has obviously earnt money down the line illegally and is showing himself to be a bent, greedy ****.

Why not? Restore some honour, decency and integrity to the national team together with a bit of that celtic spirit that has elevated the Wales team to tournament contenders.

Subtle sarcasm, nice

Looks like he's a gonner then. What a fucking idiot, waits his whole life for this job and then blows it within months purely through his own greed.

Can't understand it

Let's forget about the issues with money for a second; why on earth would he go around slating the FA to people he has never met before? It's absolutely stupid

He has made his position untenable through his own stupidity

 

[willipp]

Hearing he's gone

 

[cookster]

Hearing he's gone

Good, the greedy fat lump!

Not likely, I wouldn't say he's seen his sword in the last 30 years.

GOOD.

I don't disagree that he may be a bent greedy ****, but what's been released doesn't even come close to showing that.
