'Good luck'?! He's shafted us out of millions of pounds in compensation! There's a right way and a wrong way to leave a club.Bench wrote:Good luck, Sam.
Dunno about the compensation.enrdentw wrote:yeah it's official, will he take nolan please? do we get any compo from this, i heard we get a couple of mil..?
He'll have to change his style. The Geordies won't stand for the long-ball tactics. Just hope he doesn't come back for Anelka...officer_dibble wrote:Hope it works out ok ish for him, but that they always finish below us...
The bright side.....daxter15 wrote:I wanna wish him luck, but I want us to finish above them every year so...
Just hope he leaves our coaching staff and playing staff alone. No doubt the gossip columns will be full of it.
It will be interesting to see how he does there, big test for him and a big chance that he does deserve.

How is selling our best players 'very good for us'?!Bench wrote:The bright side..... Big Sam does come calling for any of our players, we won't be selling any of the ones he'd want cheap (i.e. Anelka, Nolan, Diouf, Davies, Faye etc). Has he'll a warchest the size of the national debt of a small African country (why else would he have joined?) he'll probably have to pay a premium. Which may prove to be very good for us.
Something tells me that invitation is not in Phil's pocket tonight!!!!!!!!!!trotter58 wrote:From tonight's B.E.N:Soldier_Of_The_White_Army wrote:Still think he'll chip up for a wave and a jig on Sunday?
'Allardyce, meanwhile, is expected to turn down a chance to say his goodbyes to the fans he left behind at the Reebok.
He has been invited by chairman, Phil Gartside, to attend Sunday's final match of the season.
But Allardyce, manager for the last seven-and-a-half years, is unlikely to accept it.
He has told friends he has no intention of being at the Aston Villa game or at the official Player of the Year event at the Reebok on Sunday evening.'
I wonder why?!
He needs four new defenders and that's about it.Bench wrote:Could see it coming to be honest (if that's true). None of the other 'big' jobs are available and Sam said last time that it was the right offer at the right time. Good luck, Sam. It'll take you three/four years to build something half decent with that crock of shite - so you'll need all the luck you can bleedin' get.
In terms of having more money to spend.trotter58 wrote:How is selling our best players 'very good for us'?!Bench wrote:The bright side.....

a lot depends on keeping owen fit, otherwise they have an excellent keeper and a very decent striker in martins and the midfield isn't half badBench wrote:Duff - a crockEpitaph wrote:He needs four new defenders and that's about it.Bench wrote:Could see it coming to be honest (if that's true).

Owen - a crock
Ameoba - shite
Can't even remember the rest of the squad. Think he needs more than four defenders.
