Brazil's worth the entrance fee this morning. He's now saying that if the Daily Telegraph don't publish the names of the 8 premier league managers to which they have been referring this week, then the Premier League should sue the Daily Telegraph. Good luck with that one Alan, suing a newspaper for something they haven't said ..

BigAl (quote) "likes Southgate but what has he done to deserve the England managers job?"
Some might ask the same of Sam Allardyce. Saying he likes him but, is Brazil's way of saying I don't rate Southgate, I don't want Southgate I want my Sammy back. ![]() ![]()

Even "Quinny" has changed his tune and ditched his support of Sam. He can see the tide has turned and its a losing battle.
He gave some reason that it was not good for the up and coming young England players.

I think you're right he'll not leave Arsenal for another job. I have little respect for any Premier League manager at all but with Arsene Wenger I respect him immensely for his achievements on the pitch and the way he behaves in the media and that's why I said I would happily believe in him as England manager even if he is 66.
I keep thinking and with all these apparent shady deals going on to facilitate big transfer moves I wonder if it now puts a new positive angle on Arsenal failing to 'buy big'? Maybe they're trying to do things right ..... |

Will the next applicant for co-presenting the breakfast show please enter the door.
[tap tap] "Enter" "Please sit down and introduce yourself" "Good morning I'm available to start any time you want" "Tell us why you think you'd be suitable for the breakfast show" "Well, I like the gee-gees, I love a pint, I'm controversial, love the smell of cash and can mispronounce names with the best of them" "Ok Sam the jobs yours" |

The interesting thing about this for me is that not only has Allardcye been caught red-handed, but also look at the other people the Telegraph have caught. Obviously they're talking it up and making it sound as big as possible, and based on what the agents are saying it's quite possible things have gone on behind the scenes which can't be proven.
But look who they've named today...the assistant manager of Barnsley, the owner of Leeds, who was already a hugely compromised character anyway, and the manager of QPR. Okay, the last one is a fairly big deal, but it's still not a Premier League manager. Not exactly Guardiola and Mourinho, is it? I suppose I should reserve judgement until we hear the whole story, perhaps they will reveal something later this week. But it seems to me that Allardyce is the only major figure stupid, greedy and immoral enough to get suckered this way. I'm sure they will have tried to get other Premier League managers and major figures in the game, but seemingly they got nowhere. Not to defend the assistant manager of Barnsley, but it's perhaps understandable why he might be tempted by an envelope full of cash (although he is well paid for what he does by any normal standard). If you're tempted when you're already a multi-millionaire and on a £9 million contract...stupid, greedy, indefensible. That should be obvious because no other major names have gone anywhere near it. |

Brazil not got a clue about how the press works.
They are not going to name everyone in one hit but let the story gather it's own momentum and release new details when they see fit. They have set it all up for a big reveal on Sunday which is the traditional day for big stories. Alan ranting on about the EPL sueing the Telegraph is stupid. |

Alan simply hasn't a clue. At one stage Micky said " Sam's agent told him not to go to the second meeting but he still went " Alan replied " Oh,did he".
In other words Alan doesn't read up about the main item on his show and just blathers off the top of his massive bonce. On Sunny Jim's show there's some old hack who is defending Allardyce tooth and nail. The way he's talking it'll be only a short while until Allardyce is appointed a knighthood or a lordship. Talksport are taking calls from alleged supporters who want Allardyce as their manager ( Villa and Sunderland at the fore). Apparently Allardyce received half a million wages for the 2 months in the job, plus another million as a pay off, plus it cost the FA £3 million to get him from Sunderland. That's £ 4,500,000 ( four and half million quid) for 67 days and one game.What a shambles. Allardyce himself said he should be sacked, and took the dough and got out of the country "tout de suite". Rest my case m'lud. By the way. Allardyce had his fingers in many other pies, apart from the England job. He was a part owner /director in quite a few companies covering a range of activities so he was getting lots of money apart from the £60,000 per week from the FA. did the FA know about these?? |

Isn't it absolutely appalling chucking £4,500,000 away on employing that guy for 67 days 'work' when you think how hard up the NHS is for instance. ![]() Sky TV and talkSPORT are all over the story but it's Sky's money that's causing the temptation in the first place I'm not for a second suggesting we go back to the Jimmy Greaves days of 20 quid a week but my god it's gone completely MAD the money in football. |

Barnsley FC have now sacked assistant manager Tommy Wright so it looks like the Telegraph have got that one right as well, it doesn't bode well for the as yet unnamed premier league eight does it I bet they're sweating profusely right now.

Incidentally [I forget to mention earlier] why is Alan Brazil making reference to "the so-called interview" that Allardyce participated in? The interview's on tape for the whole world to see, how much more classification does he need?

Well if they have taken a bung then quite right too ... But not to worry, we all know that "Defender of The Faith" Mr Alan Brazil will be screaming "stitch-up, entrapment etc etc .. " on their behalf on his morning show.

I actually think.....no probably hope is a better thought....that this is a watershed moment for the ABBS....that's IF the Telegraph do have the proof to name the 8 managers in yesterday's report.
Alan is correct in that if they don't/can't etc then people like him and Cundy will just go on about it all being a set up with no real sbustance apart from the "entrapment" which they are moaning about. Allardyce was a strange appointment in the first place and said some odd things, especially about Rooney that say if Wenger had said them they would have denounced as piffle. This whole thing is odd....I just hope the Telegraph have other names....but is it in their interests to print even if they did. I am sure that if the Sun or Times had this info as they are part of the Murdoch empire it wouldn't see light of day as it wouldn't be wanted to be out there If they do/can print then Alan will have to backtrack and he doesn't seem the personality to do that |

On Durham s show he is saying how it was wrong for Allardyce to make fun of Roy. What about Goldstein and Jacobs who have both been ridiculing Roy about his speech impediment?
Talksport continually guilty of hypocrisy. I await the day when Hadrian says he always thought Arsene was a great manager.🤔 |

Ray Parlour needs to stop being condescending towards Celtic. There are twelve points still to play for and that's the target, not hoping to scrape third place.
Not saying they'll get twelve more points but there are four games to go and any team worth their salt should aim to win all four. Hail Hail. |

Just added to the charge sheet really - Allardyce even made a point of saying he was wrong to criticise/take the mick out of other people.. Its why I don't think they will give Hoddle another go - just very bad PR wise at a time when football generally is trying to have better access to matches for the disabled. And of course not many employees would get away with criticism of their employer in a public manner ( of course he wasn't to know that I guess!) |

Hoddle is a dinosaur. I spoke to a leading sports journey a while back and he said that Hoddle will not get a go for these reasons:
1. Unpopular with players in the past 2. Didn't pull up any trees as a club manager at the highest level after England 3. Been out of the game for far too long |

The Telegraph will want to get max value out of their story BEFORE they give anything to the FA which leaks like a sieve. Brazil is just an apologist for football and footballers. He'd condone anything. The trouble is that the authorities never take any action. In the USA the FBI got involved in doping cases and FIFA corruption and people were put away. Have a listen to Tom Bower on Kick off last night or listen to Paul Hawksbee just before 4pm today. Clearly the game is rotten. |

The Telegraph will go with the names if their lawyers allow them to. Alladyce threatened to sue the BBC after Panorama but never did. Go figure. He wasn't prepared to risk losing and was worried about what might be said in court.
I'm sure this sort of thing was endemic, but I doubt it is at the highest level now because they all make millions. I'm sure the odd manager at the lower end of the Premier League could be tempted, but it would be extremely surprising to me if one of the established, big name Premier League managers was involved because they're all worth tens of millions. That's what most surprises me about Allardyce, his estimated net worth is £10 million, he was on a £9 million contract, he was reportedly on exactly the same salary at Sunderland, he has other business interests, he's 61 years-old and is unlikely to go hungry, he will get other jobs in football after England is over...it is just abject greed. |
