Sam Allardyce

Sam Allardyce has left his post as England manager by mutual agreement with the Football Association after one match and 67 days in charge.

It follows a newspaper investigation claiming he offered advice on how to "get around" rules on player transfers.

Allardyce, 61, is also alleged to have used his role to negotiate a deal worth £400,000 to represent a Far East firm.




An FA statement said Allardyce's conduct "was inappropriate" and Gareth Southgate will take temporary charge.

Re: Sam Allardyce

I wonder what the driving force behind the reporters was.....honesty and integrity or a scoop to earn them £thousands.

Re: Sam Allardyce

Were those "bungs" allegations of 2006 true after all?

Re: Sam Allardyce

Agree Art ....I thought maybe he had more to him than this....im disappointed that he was taken in so easily.
