Allardyce sacked

[shaunbhoy]

Greedy Fat Bastard, cut from the same cloth as Telly Vegetables and 'Arry Redknapp.

Brown envelope Brigade.

Now which overrated Englishman will inherit the post next I wonder?

[quackhandle]

As a chap on 5Live said why did his media people let him do this?

It's like getting the job of your dreams, then walking up to the CEO at lunch and calling him a c**t.

A new one for the lexicon in losing your very short job: "Ohh he's done an Allardyce."

BBC: Sam Allardyce has left his post as England manager by mutual agreement
Guardian: has left his position by mutual consent
Daily Mail: Sam Allardyce has been sacked as England manager

Only in the Mail was he sacked, even the Express, Telegraph, et. al. have all said it was by mutual agreement...

The kind of mutual agreement where he signed the letter of resignation they placed in front of him?

Big Sam, Big Scam, All Scum. See You Next Thursday!

Still 7 figure sum for working 62 days, not bad.

[NotAllThere]

Confirmed, he has been sacked!

£1M payoff. I wish I could be sacked like that.

[NigelJK]

£1M payoff.

BBC reported a '7 figure' handshake.

BBC reported a '7 figure' handshake.

So NLYUK has consoled him?

Corruption happens in football at all levels, there is a lot of money in the game to be made.

Personally, I think anyone who drinks wine in a pint glass deserves a second chance!

[minestrone]

They were better off giving him a complete public bollocking, accepting a groveling apology and letting him carry on with the condition that he drops all other types of work.

Having Southgate as manager even briefly should have been the last resort.
