Interesting question.

The lure of their brilliant stadium, brilliant training ground and living in London when you’ve got money is huge… the lure of going to a club that hasn’t won anything for years and you could be the ones to turn that around is huge… they’ve got nice club colours n’all (I don’t think I could manage a team in red)…

The downside is that they are one of the lowest clubs at reinvesting their turnover into their football team.

We don’t know what his relationship is like with Burnley though. He might be enjoying managing them as much as he did playing for City. He might live working under their boardmembers. He might think that he’s got a job to do at Burnley first before taking a job like Spurs. He might see them as a club he can take forward and achieve what Brighton and Brentford have in the Prem if he gets the them up.

Carla might not want to move away from the North West again.

Dyche or Allardyce. But Allardyce was about as popular as rabies in a guide dog puppy training centre when he was there. So he was never going to get invited back, was he?

It’s easy to knock Allardyce and all banter aside, when you’re in a relegation battle the pretty passing and tiki tactics go out of the window and what you really need is a bruiser who can scrape a few 0-0s and the odd snidey 1-0 robbery.

It’s ugly and boring as fuck but to be fair to fat sam he was the best in the business at that.

Back in the bad old days I’d have been desperate for someone of his reputation to try and keep city up.

I agree, 100%. Now, if you can show me where I knocked Allardyce in that post of mine that you quoted, please do.
