So what's it to be on the 11th August for BSA?

 

for me personally it'll be a cheer

Could we have an "ignore him" option on this poll, please?

Neither...

Don't cheer him or boo him.

Ah the silent treatment, that may work

 

btw are you a woman compo?

Thing is, he did the bizzo but that was a two way thing - we also did the bizzo for him. We made him financially secure for life by giving him the 10 year contract. We gave him the tools to up not only our own profile but also his as well - and of the two his was increased more dramatically by far. He's gone from journeyman to household name - and in the end that's thanks to Bolton as much as it is to his abilities. But consider this - how many times has he ever thanked the club or the fans for this? By the end of his time here his ego had bloated so big that there's no way he'd do that. In fact quite the opposite - witness the debacle at the end of the season before last when his cringeworthy begging to get the England job resulted in a catastrophic decline in team form - but was that his fault? No - in "Samworld" it was the fault of the fans, who if disappointed to be served up relegation form in a Euro run-in were actually being "ignorant and naive". Mind you, maybe not as ignorant and naive as Sam's son or indeed Sam for letting that pillock anywhere near the club. And let's not forget, he said what he said on camera. Even if it was rubbish and bravado, the Allardyce family one way or another dropped our good name right in the shite. But the fans stood by him. In the world of the fans that was the thing to do - to show loyalty; in "Samworld" it just boosted his sense of self worth - we weren't being loyal against a potential injustice, we were worshipping at the shrine of BSA. And then of course he pisses us about and buggers, without so much as a thankyou to the fans who'd supported him both on the field (witness the 2-fold increase in attendance for the Sheffield United home match in his last season compared to the one in his first) and off (Panorama).

He gave us some great moments - or at least the players he brought in did. I'd thank him for that, if it wasn't for the fact that he'd already been thanked by a pay-packet I could only dream of and a launch pad to greater things.

Just a bit of thanks and humility, that's all I'd ask....then I'd have at least clapped him politely. But as it is, I'll spit venom at him. And that's sad - because it really, really should not have been the case....he probably deserves better, but then so did we.

 

Kin 'ell - nail on head

 

SG for PM

boo or cheer?

 

what about "who gives a fukc"?

i'll be booing,

scattered 'golf' applause i say, sure the barcode army will be making enough noise for the fat tripe anyway!

I can see you being the next one

 

you plonker

you plonker

 

 

Oh dear...........

Oh dear...........

 

why?

I would boo him,but only in a pantomine villian sort of way.

If he'd batted it out until the end of the season, and then said he needed a new challenge, or whatever, he would always have my respect. It's the way he did it; leaving with two games to go, saying he needed a 'rest', and then two weeks later turning up on the telly with a barcode tie. TSO is right, I personally don't do 'slapping', but I see where he's coming from. Boo the coont!

Edited July 27, 200719 yr by athywhite

summed up perfectly why i will not be slapping people i can not understand anyone who wants to cheer for him he is now dismantling our backroom team and although doing a fantastic job while here, he has undone some of that with his antics since does not deserve anything from us , he would like a good reception before he nips back to dismantle the team beware

why?

 

 

hopefully you will find out in the very near future

I will just be treating it as any other match. Although a chant of "Fat Sam whats the score? would be nice as Anelka fires in the third

Neither...

Don't cheer him or boo him.

 

Nearly 3,000 posts and the lad comes out with a belter

 

Spot on Kemps

i shall be applying my newly acquired 'how to deal with road rage' skills, and using them in a 'how to deal with a fat walrus who threw loyalty back in the faces of those who stood by him' way.

 

 

and then i'll probably boo

Boo the fat lying tw?t.

Boo the fat lying tw?t.

 

 

Ditto

Sadly my flight gets into London at 1pm so won?t make the game.

 

I fear him being introduced and coming on waving for the round of applause from the muppet hoards.

 

Hate the bastard

Does me fooking head in. Fair enough, everybodies entitled to their opinion. I am of the opinion that without his 8 years at the helm we would never have been in the upper reaches of the EPL and, quite possibly, not even been in the EPL at all.

Every reason under the sun trotted out - 'fat lying tw@t' 'media whore' etc. but the plain truth is it is just bitterness that he wanted to move on. Like an acrimonious divorce, you'll get over it one day and realise he did a lot more good than bad for BWFC.

Certainly nothing bitter here.

 

I wanted him to go for ages.

 

For me, the brand of football, no matter how high we finished was not justified.

 

Yes, he got us to Europe, that I thank him, but the long ball, 8-1-1 tactics, the arse licking of Man united and England, and the string of excuses each week including the "shit fans".

 

Sorry, the guy is a prick and it only took the rest of you several years to cotton on

You've only been on here a month, how do you know?

Certainly nothing bitter here.

Well said Tash!

I was in the company of a very reliable source within the club and he confirmed to me the real reason behind the allardyce saga. And turns out that he couldn't keep his d?ck in his trousers and let it slip into a certain chairmans wife. Now if that is the case, then he deserves booing for letting his own ego ruin a good working relationship at the club

Certainly nothing bitter here.

We also missed a trick when we appointed Sammy Lee, we should have appointed Glen Hoddle
