Blackburn were 19th, 5 points off 17th, and without a win in 11 games when he was appointed.He might not have been seen as a specialist when they appointed him, but he was certainly brought in to save them.
Mate its sam allardyce. There's litterally no dressing it up. He's not unknown and we all know the style of football he plays and his capabilities. There isn''t much blind hope to cling on to. This appointment has written off the next 18 months for everton. We will never win anything or qualify for Europe under him
he's managed some proper shite hasn't hedidn't realise it was him who brought Charles N'Zonzi to the Premier League though
Craig Shakespeare should be confirmed as coach later today with other staff to follow by the end of next week
Yes but that’s the same for most managers. They weren’t looking at him other than he’d done well at a similar club. But yes, aside from Newcastle (can’t remember where they finished in 2007), he’s started low.
Sammy Lee confirmed... this, I admit, is much harder to swallow.
Suspect we're probably at cross purposes a little here. He might rail against being seen as a survival specialist, but if he keeps taking those (no doubt lucrative) jobs then that's what he'll be seen as.I don't buy into everything he's said, but it's nice to see him talking about European places and cup finals rather than relegation.
