Sam LOLAllardyce

[Sidindaclub]

Just read a quote comparing us vs west ham, as fulham sitting back against man united. sorry they aint united, and we definately shouldn't be compared to how fulham play away in the premiership lol

"If Reading are going to come and sit back and sit in then you can't play a fluent game of football no matter who you are. I watched Manchester United and Fulham this week and there were spells in that game where they [Man Utd] couldn't get the normal flowing football that they wanted going. ''

flowing football from west ham??? has he seen them this year, long ball long ball long ball

Allardyce seems to play on the negativity surrounding the team and supporters quiet well doesn't he. Lets hope he's in for a rough ride tomorrow as he doesn't seem to be sending out the right signals. I'm not sure what his contractual terms and conditions are but he seems quite nervy.

[Zammo]

Fat Sam said in the Evening Standard last week that they've gifted Southampton the league.

My view.....if you can't turn draws into wins, then you aint good enough.

[Arch]

ALOLLOLardyce.

Get it right, lad.

[Mr Optimist]

Mr negative tactics trying to blame us in case we don't take a cavalier approach to allow his superstars to strut their stuff. The guy is a complete helmet. He was even trying to suggest the media are on his back, the same media who were putting him forward as a Ron manAager England candidate a few years ago!

[Rex]

There's only one Fat Sam
He manages West Ham
He likes to play lump ball
He is a pcunt after all

[SpaceCruiser]

sorry they aint united

Um, they are West Ham United. Maybe you should have been more specific and said "Sorry, they are not Manchester United".

[M-U-R-T-Y]

ALOLLOLardyce.

Get it right, lad.

ALOLLOLaROFLdyce, actually

Great point! I hadn't noticed that before!

You're like the Socrates of football forums!

[Badger Finger]

Their geezers (bosh) havin' a good old boo isn't a new thing. Just seen West Ham Vs Stoke from 1983, on the Big Match Revisited, a packed Boleyn, no away fans, the ball kept as high as sputnik. A 1-1 draw and Booooooo...

[Friday's Legacy]

Sounds like he's getting his excuses in early. Yesterday he was quoted as saying his side play like Swansea. I'll have whatever he's having please.

I thought I read somewhere that he was given a 2 year contract last summer and his remit was to ensure promotion within that timeframe. I reckon that when West Ham balls up their promotion campaign this time around, he'll be gone. They won't put up with him for another year will they?

No - I would concur with that.

When he's talking about Swansea he's clearly comparing them with Swansea Rugby Football Club.

Sam Lard-Arse can go to hell, he's signed what, 25 strikers and no midfield, says a lot about his tactical priorities.
His teams haven't exactly been playing "Keeganesque" football.

IMHO there is effective football - what we play.
Then there is ineffective hoofball - what they play.

In order for the direct style of play to have any real effect, passing has to be precise, and you need quick pacey wide players who can cross the ball. We have this.
They have a midfield packed with central midfielders, and none of them are particularly quick. In fact most of them are quite slow.
In addition they are not particularly quick to get forward. It's an advantage for the direct ball team, if they an play on the break. West Ham are incapable of this, their team of slow, lumbering has-beens isn't capable of really scaring anyone when it comes to pace.

All this is really immaterial though, I would just love to see them go bust, having gambled their finances on this promotion challenge.

It can't be that ineffective, they're 1 point behind us in 3rd.

Just like we can't be Fulham as we're second and they can't be Man Utd as they've bottled it in the run in and gifted the title to Saints and allowed us to come up on the inside.

He is a belmont of the highest order though.

[Ian Royal]

That's right Sam, pretend there's nothing wrong with drawing 5 games in a row and slag off the fans who disagree. That's how to win friends and influence people.

[Ian Royal]

It can't be that ineffective, they're 1 point behind us in 3rd.

If we had Carew playing for us, we'd make sure he got plenty of goals. They have not only him, but 20,000 other strikers, and none of them are scoring - why is this?

Couldn't give a monkey's.

[Mr Optimist]

Can't wait to hear Fatheads full post match interview. No longer in your own hands now lardboy.

[DOYLERSAROYALER]

The fat blob said on talksport ...."all Reading's goals were mistakes by us rather than great play by them"...

.....just a very sad man who never has been gracious in defeat and no need to think he will start now
