Andrew 4748 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 In Dick Advocaat they also have a coach with a much better continental reputation than their last few (provided mrs advocaat can stomach staying there that is) Turns out Mrs Advocaat didn't fancy it. Sunderland now also looking for a manager. Here's hoping they don't make as smart an appointment as DA this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 42442 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 "For me it's time to get out, get away, think about me and only me and the family for a change." Allardyce could be back in management next season if the right offer comes along, saying that it "depends what the challenge is". "There's no desperate need for me to be jumping back into this game," he said. http://www.sportinglife.com/football/news/article/165/9863530/premier-league-sam-allardyces-contract-as-west-ham-manager-will-not-be-renewed Doesn't really answer whether he is or not though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most PL clubs know that if they appoint him they're getting a manager that is not capable of keeping fans happy for a long time, once the ceiling of ambition/resources is reached league position wise he isn't capable of making it entertaining enough to keep people content.
