That's Allardyce for you. Let em play for England to see if they're fit to play in his team.

I would piss myself if he got injured. It would be second only to seeing BFSA choke on his own gum as he gets charged with corruption.

Owen played on Saturday - last half hour

Only half the ground bothered to stop to watch all his performance

I think they only stayed to boo the jawdees off

I like Owen, he's the only real world class finisher we have had in years.

But, aye, Owen and Smith jumping for the same ball!!
