Allardyce: Reds have gone physical

[red g]

I found Rafa's reaction a bit childish too. It was understandable but not an ideal way to respond IMO.

The whole thing doesn't reflect well on anyone involved - Rafa, Ferguson and the media in general - but Blabberdyce has much the most to be embarrassed about.

hmmmmm its very difficult not to rise to the incompetence and stupidity......just look at you and fredo

At least I think I should be laughing...

Yes, I completely understand Rafa's annoyance but I personally think it would have been better if he'd deadpanned it, by adopting a "more in sorrow than in anger" tone. Easy to say from a distance I know.

I think its time for a new Est competition - best suggestion for something amusing to filter the word "Allardyce" to wins.... errrr, wins something that's slightly indeterminate at this moment. Perhaps Fredo's Est mug.

Or more likely something title/avatar related

I nominate 'Sam Blabber****e'.

Rafa shouldn't have reacted either, tbh I think Rafa needs to calm down a little bit, sometimes he acts like this in a, like you say, childish way. I love him, but he goes overboard sometimes.

obv i am biased - but i think rafa is very good at it, he is obv taking the piss, saying it tongue in cheek and he knows what he is doing - and it always get's an angry response which makes it even funnier - i kinda agree that it owuld be nice to not get involved - but rafa has had nothing but constant ****e thrown at him for like 4 or 5 years - the allardyce/fegruson thing last season was fuxking pathetic and for me, wasn't nearly as ripped apart as much as it should have been

Blackburn boss Sam Allardyce has reignited his war of words with Rafael Benitez, admitting he 'doesn't like' the Liverpool chief.

The pair have never seen eye-to-eye and their latest verbal exchange through the media saw Benitez criticise Blackburn's style of play following Liverpool's 2-0 home win against Rovers last month.

Allardyce admits he relishes playing mind-games in a bid to outwit his rival Premier League managers and he has often got the better of Arsenal's Arsene Wenger.

The former Bolton and Newcastle boss felt his latest row with Benitez drew attention away from what was an encouraging display by his side, though, after putting themselves on the verge of another season in the top-flight with back-to-back wins over Hull and Bolton.

Personal

And although old adversaries Sir Alex Ferguson and Jose Mourinho would famously share a post-match bottle of wine while they mulled over their latest clash, Allardyce insisted he does nothing of the sort with Benitez.

"He's always got personal with it for many, many years now, that's why I don't like him," he told Sky Sports News.

"The feeling's probably mutual but I don't get personal with him . I get into him, and under his skin, but that's all part of the game, is it not?

"The great shame is we didn't get a result - whether he becomes personal after that, there's very little I can do about it.


Tit-for-tat
"The outstanding performance we gave at Liverpool was obviously overshadowed by a bit of tit-for-tat between me and Rafa, which will be the order of the day, no doubt, until one of us isn't managing in the Premier League any more.

"I've always managed to psyche out one or two here and there, and that's the way the Premier League has evolved over the last few years.

"If you have a go at it and it rebounds on you then you'll get criticised, but if it works, that's fine."

He thinks he's a psychological genius. Comedy gold.
