Defending Sam right now, my not be that popular, the weekends result and performance was indeed woful, however, I think it should be remembered that prior to his arivel, such performances and results had become the norm,
I know we are still not safe, but that was the mans remite when he was brought in, and I think there is every chance he will keep us up, the situation was so bad at the time of his appointment that had we gone for the watford manager we would not just be in the bottom 3, but tailed off last, and if he does keep us up he deserves at least one full season to see what he can do, before the vultures sweep in and attack him on style.

{Ed001's Note - are you sure about that? Only I seem to remember Unsworth was beginning to pick up results even before Allardyce came in.}

Good post that Mr Allardyce, can I please have a quarter of what your smoking. Silva had Watford playing football and had midfield runners running in behind the striker when he holds the ball up, our striker is that isolated he might as well be on an Arctic expedition! Then again when you persist on playing 2 defense minded midfielders and your most creative midfielder out of position, how do you expect to have these runners from midfield. Attack is the best form of defense, yet our attack is so blunt it couldn't cut butter! I bet you we don't play 2 strikers tomorrow, at home to the bottom side, then come back and laud over the gravy boat.

I'm baffled how people can still defend him we play the worst football in the league and he comes out with comments such as it's there fault the players have not done what we asked he is a shocking manager.

Agreed Ed001. He wasn’t needed then and he most definitely isn’t needed now. Paddington Bear could tactically do a better job. Unfortunately DU wasn’t given enough time as manager as the squad 100% wanted to play for the guy. He would have picked up more points than the fraud to date that’s for sure. Say it once and I’ll say it again whoever pointed Sam in the first place needs to give they’re head a wobble. Such a lame panic appointment. Sam Allardyce Out! Let’s at least give these players more marmalade sandwiches to chew on.

{Ed001's Note - that's what I don't understand, Allardyce felt like a panic appointment but you were not in a position for that to be time to panic. It is bizarre.}

I am with Ed, I thought Unsworth was progressing and soughting the team out.
