More seriously, he stopped giving interviews to the BBC at large, following damaging allegations by the Panorama programme. Allardyce threatened to sue for libel but, curiously, the threat was never carried out.

No mention that Fergie has maintained that stance with the Beeb as well...

I really despise the media, I do all of it.

Yeah strange one that, possibly because the much vaunted programme was a complete damp squib and didn't actually contain anything damaging to sam?..................................

:rolleyes:

So you finally made a decision then! :rolleyes:

Just two points from me.

1. Calm down - it's only Stoke City.

2. Regarding Allardyce - I told you so!

You'll stay up now.

Merry Christmas! ;)

Sam's next two fixtures are wierd in the extreme:

Sunderland away- up against long time colleague whose break into the managerial big time has now been publicly tied to beating us and their next opponents. If Sam inspires a win, he breaks his old mates dreams and ambition but probably gets him to Ewood when he gets sacked. Just to add to the twists are Spit the Diouff and the risk that Sam might spoil a huge winning run in the north east that is 12 (?) games long in Cup and League that even Paul Ince didn't manage to screw up.

Man City home- former manager and favourite Sparky returns to Ewood for the ultimate defenestration? Plus it could be a game literally for the heart and soul (well £20m and what shirt to wear) of Roque who may or may not be on the field knowing he has to score to sink his potential new employers deeper into the relegation soup in order to impress them enough to offer the dosh.

Sigmund Freud et al, eat your heart out.

Sbragia mentioned in his press conference today that he spoke with Sam on Saturday night (to congratulate him on the Stoke result).

It will be interesting to see what happens with the Sunderland job. Clearly Sam puts so much emphasis on having the correct backroom staff, therefore I am interested to see who next be brings in. It appears he wants Sbragia to join and he is holding out for him for now. Sbragia seems unsure on taking the managers job at Sunderland full time. Worst case scenairo for us is that he is appointed caretaker manager for rest of season.

Deep very Deep, and I love "Spit the Diouff". I wonder whatever happened to "Spit the Dog"

Could be a smart move to lure him away and have Sunderland back in a relegation tizzy until they wait for Hughes to be fired ;-)

Haha! Made me smile, which is some going today.

Why's that? Our head just informed us it's the worst day of the year for falling out with colleagues. No wonder when after 2 weeks almost child free you suddenly get groups of 30 kids appearing in your classroom ready to talk about their hols to the rest of the friends they haven't seen for 2 weeks and no at all interested in learning french. You just gone back to work too?

yep, but only for a week and a bit, I get officially binned a week tomorrow.

Motivation level is 0.

Think mine would be even lower in those circumstances. Even worse having to go back after christmas only to lose your job. Best wishes.
