and I think he's improved massively since someone at the BBC obviously told him he could say what he thought.
If only he could say it without having to repeat part of his previous sentence. Part of his previous sentence.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change? Crap!

He is northern. It's to be expected he don't talk proper like I do.

But would you disagree with them? They all said what we all thought. Would you rather they'd have said we were good? They're there to do their job and they called it as they saw it, what's the problem?
No I wouldn't but, the guys that fucked it up as manager at least gave it a go.

Won't be pretty but at least we will be able to take/defend set pieces properly and generally be organised in all the basic aspects of the game.
Might as well give an old school manager a go, the other managerial styles havent exactly worked

I don't have a problem with this....we've been that poor the last couple of tournaments, that getting back to the basics is needed. If Sam can get them able to take a corner and free kick, that'll be progress.

Your so wrong! Our kids will be watching that doctrine of shit and we've been doing that for years. 3/4 years of darkness. Fuck me he can't run a premiere club?

To paraphrase someone on Twitter, It might be long ball, but at least they'll know what to do!

I'm happy with it. As someone said above, he's old school. Back to basics, he knows how to make teams hard to beat. He plays to the strengths of the players he has, people forget some of the stuff Bolton played when he was there.

Oh come on, do you think we'd appoint Hoddle and we'd suddenly start playing beautiful passing football? If the players aren't up to it then they're not going to do it, it doesn't matter if we've got Big Sam or Superted. And this "won't somebody think of the children" stuff - as long as they don't emulate behaviour like unsporting behaviour and ref haranguing (thank fuck Terry retired) they will continue to prosper according to what they're being taught. And that's down to a lot of things, but it won't be Allardyce!

I think he's about the best choice available. I don't think he's as agricultural as people think, he's jsut not a Brendan Rogers esque philosopher who will try to play tiki taka if he doesn't have the resources. A lot of the clubs he's been at have, largely, been a pile of shite, particularly Sunderland most recently, so if the football wasn't great I wouldn't lay that 100% at his door.
That said, being able to organise a defence and sort out set pieces seems like a bloody good start as far as this England side go.
