Allardyce Comments

You don't really expect much else from him really.

We should have bunged him a few quid to say something nice. It must be a while since he has had a backhander.

I loved Linekar's comment when Portsmouth played Bolton, had a shot of Redknapp and Fat head and he said something like

"These guys don't really talk to us any more, so just in case you forgot what they looked like"

[dww]

He's entitled to say what he wants. He said his team were tired, you can hardly blame him for saying that considering the amount of games around the Christmas period.

I don't care if people hate him, that's their opinion, i don't like him much myself, but there's no need to make a big deal about something as minor as these comments.

Nice to see some sense in a Bolton related thread. I know they aren't often that pretty but they have been excellent this season - even playing some passing football at times. I know that big Sam puts a lot of emphasis on set pieces but as he has added better players to his team their style has evolved. They are not becoming a new Arsenal or anything but a couple of times this season they have given attractive performances.

Big Sam can be his own worst enemy with some of his comments but the interviews after the game against us seem pretty sensible.
