  1. I remember reading Stig Toftings book, where he described Sam Allardyce when he was in Bolton.

     

    He said that if Bolton were behind at halftime, then Allardyce would spend the whole break yelling and screaming at the players, telling them how poor they were and everything instead of telling them what to do better :)

    “They come with big support but that’s about all really. They had a fluke result against Villa but if you look at the team, by and large it’s very similar to the one that went down.

     

    “There’s been a lot of hype about Andy Carroll, I’ve watched him for two or three years in the Under 18s and the reserves and to be honest I think for top class players like Distin and Jagielka I don’t think he really is that much of a threat.”

  3. He is fast becoming a heroic figure for me and is someone I am actually quite pleased to be associated with NUFC because he's a good guy, a football man and someone you just know who wakes up every morning with a buzz because he's managing Newcastle United, in a similar vein to Sir Bobby but of course for entirely different reasons. He is very knowledgeable and with it sensible which is how I'd describe his buys and team selections, he's a steady eddy and just what this club needs. To be f***ing honest with you what he has achieved and in the circumstances is some f***ing going and he deserves far more credit, far more. In a way though I'm glad its all low key because it keeps everyone and everything grounded. I'd love to hear a full crowd singing his name out loud like. Perhaps at the end of the season should we stay up?
