I bloody despair at our media.
I can't see many other countries going out of their way to undermine the manager of their national football team.
Nobody is going to want the job before long.
Utter, utter, short-sighted and f
kwitted wkers.
I disagree. Allardyce brought this on himself. The Telegraph went after him because he has form, gave him some rope and he hung himself. Entirely Allardyce's fault. I can't see many other countries going out of their way to undermine the manager of their national football team.

Utter, utter, short-sighted and f
kwitted wkers.The bloke is a stupid, naive, egotistical d
head who was never suitable in a million years of being the manager of the English national team. When this sting took place he hadn't even picked his first team! We should be thanking the Telegraph on bended knee for helping get rid of him before he ruined the national teams reputation even further. The only problem with this of course is that the same fkING MUPPETS in the FA who picked him in the first place will now be picking his replacement.It's an utter, utter f
king disaster.

Reminds me of Yes Prime Minister... The bloke is a stupid, naive, egotistical d
head who was never suitable in a million years of being the manager of the English national team. When this sting took place he hadn't even picked his first team!

Sir Desmond Glazebrook: They've broken the rules.
Sir Humphrey: What, you mean the insider trading regulations?
Sir Desmond Glazebrook: No.
Sir Humphrey: Oh. Well, that's one relief.
Sir Desmond Glazebrook: I mean of course they've broken those, but they've broken the basic, the basic rule of the City.
Sir Humphrey: I didn't know there were any.
Sir Desmond Glazebrook: Just the one. If you're incompetent you have to be honest, and if you're crooked you have to be clever. See, if you're honest, then when you make a pig's breakfast of things the chaps rally round and help you out.
Sir Humphrey: If you're crooked?
Sir Desmond Glazebrook: Well, if you're making good profits for them, chaps don't start asking questions; they're not stupid. Well, not that stupid.
Sir Humphrey: So the ideal is a firm which is honest and clever.
Sir Desmond Glazebrook: Yes. Let me know if you ever come across one, won't you.

I don't think they're going to be 'picking' his replacement, more begging and hoping there's someone out there stupid enough to take it on.The bloke is a stupid, naive, egotistical d

He's done nothing wrong, other than to place his trust in people who had been building themselves up as trustworthy for nearly a year.
I'm sure we've all been stabbed in the back by someone we took into our social circle / professional circle and trusted. That's exactly how Sam will be feeling today.

That is why we will never be able to win any major tournament ever again. As soon as a manager takes charge, the media will be on the hunt to bring him down.
