Sam Allardyce
« Previous EntriesBarton Charged With Misconduct – UPDATED
Thursday, November 11th, 2010Joey Barton has been charged with violent conduct on a alleged punch to Pedersen in last night’s loss to Blackburn at home. The incident happened around the beginning of the second half and was not seen by the referee, Mike Jones, at the time. It would now mean that Barton will most likely miss the [...]
Joey Barton Suspended
Tuesday, May 5th, 2009Barton hit the headlines yesterday and again he”ll continue to make the papers by being suspended by Newcastle until further notice. Thankfully, this maybe the last we’ll see of one of the worst players we have had for the club ever. Since Allardyce brought him in, he’s been hit by jail time and injuries. I [...]
Blackburn Stick Three Past Stoke whilst Table Shifts Again
Saturday, December 20th, 2008Sam Allardyce made an immediate impact for his first game against Stoke this afternoon. Blackburn Rovers were already two up after three mins thanks to Gardner and Taylor. It echoes Big Sam’s own scoreline debut when he faced old club Bolton when he managed us in 2007. They’ll still be in the relegation zone but [...]
Big Sam Allardyce Moves In On Blackburn
Wednesday, December 17th, 2008Confirmed and ready to go, Sam Allardyce has made a big return back in to top flight management to rescue league strugglers, Blackburn. As we’ve heard the unrest generated in the backrooms and terraces by Paul Ince’s shaky management style, Allardyce is bought on board to make the most of the rest of their season. [...]
Roy Keane Calls It Quits For The Mackems
Thursday, December 4th, 2008Roy Keane made the dramatic announcement that he had resigned as manager of Sunderland this afternoon. Sunderland have struggled to gain many points since beating us almost a over a month ago and that left them hanging in the relegation zone this weekend. Although the situation wasn’t as bad as it looks considering how tightly [...]
An End to a Season of Mediocrity
Wednesday, May 14th, 2008As Manchester United lift the Premiership Cup for a record tenth time, Newcastle United stutter at Goodison park to let Everton take the UEFA place. With key players missing, we were unable to replicate the performances of past games. We just couldn’t play the same with Viduka and Martins missing which blunted our attack. In [...]
Updates: Alan Smith, Allardyce and Liverpool
Friday, March 7th, 2008With Newcastle teetering on the brink of relegation, a usual feature of the club is a player coming out and firing up the troops for battle with Alan Smith being the most recent. Out of Allardyce’s recruits, I’m the most disappointed with Alan Smith. He’s had plenty of appearances throughout the season but I don’t [...]
Who’s Next On The Managerial List?
Wednesday, January 9th, 2008The race to get the manager position filled began promptly as soon as the shock news that Allardyce was sent packing. Sources that are close to Shearer say he’s ruled out a move to St James’ Park which is good news to me simply because Shearer is not ready for such a job. Maybe later [...]
Bye Bye Sam Allardyce
Wednesday, January 9th, 2008Reports are coming in that Sam Allardyce has left Newcastle United. This shocking news means that Nigel Pearson will take control of the next game against Manchester United. The full story is yet to emerge, however, Allardyce has left on ‘mutual aggreement’ with the club. Chris Mort has stated that no new manager has been [...]
The Tabloid Press And Newcastle United
Monday, December 31st, 2007For some reason, the press think that only Alan Shearer could come in and take the club places from the get-go. Over the weekend, I’ve seen 3-4 page spreads about Newcastle United all saying roughly the same thing: “Club in Crisis!”, “Sack Allardyce!” and “Alan Shearer is the saviour of Newcastle”. They take the same [...]
