Comments: Former player and manager, Sam Allardyce was a big strong defender with no frills.

He was sold to Sunderland for £150,000 but failed to establish himself and was transfered to division 3 outfit Millwall the season after for £95,000.

He went to the States to play in the NASL followed with spells at Coventry, Huddersfield back at Bolton then onto Preston where he teamed up with former player Mick Bennett.
