On the shortlist that PG has drawn up!

Although allardyce was a brilliant manager, I dare say without Davies we'd have had no chance as the whole game plan revolved around him.

 

I don't think with the players we have now allardyce would be able to achieve anywhere near what he did previously.

 

We need someone who can set up a 'passing' team as a unit. Which isn't allardyces forte.

The organisation he'd bring back would be just what's required.

He'd use Kev of course he would but he'd use him in the right manner when required.

I`m not sure, before he signed Carroll he didn`t really have a Davies style player in his team did he?

We all know Vaz Te struggles to stand up when theres a stiff breeze and Coles not really a target man is he?

 

I would say we are currently in the position we were in when allardyce first arrived. ie. bollocks to performances, we just need to get out of this league which ironically was what everyone became so unhappy about which led to the slide we have suffered which culminates in this scenario.

 

touch of irony in it all?!

Agreed Derek.

I'm not so sure he's an organised type. It's alright when you have the likes of speed and campo dictating things on the pitch, and getting the ball in the right place from set pieces.

 

Plus I truly believe to go forward we must go without Davies now. He's done great this season but you'd have to wonder how good we could have done with sordell and Ngog playing off each other.

 

And I'm not so sure there's any way of using Kev without using him constantly and bombarding the opposition before they finally give in.

this group of players is much better than the one he inherited last time

 

anyway, he's not coming back

 

nor should he

anyway, he's not coming back

 

I agree, I don't see it happening at all

expectations would go through the roof

 

and it would only end in tears.

and it would only end in tears.

 

They'd not be his.

Not so sure Allardyce was organised???

 

By fuckery the intricate detail he put into things being in place was his best quality

 

Sounds organised to me!

My exact thoughts when I read that bit too.

Cass Pennant just rang me. Said he was in the Blind Beggar when who walks in ? None other than than Big Sam,Arry Redknapp and Phil Gartside who's playing truant from this here meeting in London. After a few sherberts,a rousing rendition of 'knees up mother brown(she must have one big clout),pie n mash all round and a few brown envelopes stuffed into each pockets,Big Sam told Cass to get him a one-way ticket to the Reebok.

Our 'Arry is back on the manor and Sam is back up here quicker than you can say ''you lying bastard''.............just as long as he can have Colleen's brother as captain and Joey Deacon at right back....i kid ye not

 

 

Not a chance, we didn't have a pot to piss in when he left, we dont even have the piss now

 

Succinct and to the point.

I'd have him back.

Campo, Speed etc only came later- he would introduce some spine and belief- maybe even a few clean sheets

 

Can't see it happening though, unless Gartside used it as a leaving present, 'retiring' after appointing Sam

Well if he can tidy a desk fair fucks to him.

 

There's different kinds of organised...

 

Setting up to win set pieces and getting the ball in the box

 

Or

 

Setting up as a complete unit passing the opposition to death.

 

Big Sam can organise a certain way.

I'd love this to be true.

Yeah me too. He grabbed this club and dragged it forwards. He employed anything that gave us a winning edge- nutritionists, analysts, long throws, kidnapping top players like youri, okocha, hierro, standing in front of the keeper at free kicks etc. He left nothing to chance or blind faith like coyle. He was probably the most organising force our club has ever had.

made me laugh when Sepp Blatter had a go at us for ruining football with that freekick routine

I miss us upsetting all and sundry

 

It meant we were doing something right

watch when a new team gets promoted and gets patronised to fuck on MOTD
