Match Day Thread 2017/18 Premier League, Cups & Euro Watch

The bookies doubted they'd win, as Limassol have a decent home record they had us at 18/5 for the win, which I gratefully took

Sensible decision to save the entire first team a 10 hour round trip imo. The official word on Sam himself is that he had a long standing medical appt..........

 

Yeh and Spartak were on an unbeaten 19 game run I read about the 'medical appointment but I wouldn't believe the bung taker if he said it was Friday.

 

Bung taker? When was he found guilty of that like?

 

That took a little longer for you to bite.

 

2006 secret filming with two agents who both confirmed they'd paid him and his son to make certain transfers at Bolton. Obviously he said it never happened. The man shouldn't be anywhere near football, he's dodgy as anything.

 

Bite???? I'm on here at roughly the same times each day

 

He was never found guilty of anything hence the reason he got the England gig.

That's libellous

 

Not saying it did or didn't happen. But was he ever charged, were the agents ever charged with making illegal payments? Sounds like some agent was rying to make a few £'s on the back of Sam.

 

Nice to see the Blues' view of Fat Sam has improved recently.
It only remains for them to start loving Mini-Me as well.

 

I want to see little Fat Sam doing a knee slide down the touchline at the pit after Rooney smashes in an 89th minute winner

 

Think he would struggle to build up the speed.

 

Not changed one bit. Be happy to see the back of him in the summer.

He could have sorted England out, we won’t win anything with the players we have. But at least we would have shown fight and spirit.

 

Maybe, maybe not. You did fall back on the "he wasn't charged" defence. Even with a lack of indictable evidence, we all know he's dodgy as ****.

 

It might be libellous but I bet the fat twat wouldn't attempt a prosecution.
No doubt Sam isn't just a receiver of brown envelopes he must have handed a few out back then, he's as bent as an Arabs dagger.

 

As if I was defending him! All I stated was the facts. Did the other two get charged?

 

Im sure lots of managers have done it, in the past and now.

 

It's normally the managers who have a high turnover in players, big sam, harry redknapp, rafa benitez

 

So Fat Sam and George Graham?

In Allardyce's case it was the agents word against his, the three involved included Fat Sam's son, not surprisingly he never grassed on his dad and covered his own arse at the same time.


"The case against Allardyce, a candidate for the England manager's job last season, will attract the most attention and centres on the relationship between his son Craig, a former agent, and Peter Harrison, another licensed football agent. Harrison is secretly filmed boasting that he makes payments to Craig in order to bribe Sam to carry out transfers. On film Harrison says: "If I say, 'Listen, Sam, I'll give Craig some money'... he'll say, 'Yeah, OK, we'll do a deal.'"

He negotiated himself a £400,000 deal to travel to Hong Kong to speak at a dinner telling agents? how to get around FA rules. And let's not forget he doesn't want to manage a club again ''I simply want to be able to enjoy all the things you cannot really enjoy with the 24/7 demands of managing any football club, let alone one in the Premier League''. £££££££££££££££££££

 

He's a legend for all the wrong reasons.
