I know it is a bit early in the day but I hope the board are looking for a new manager. Not that I think Allerdyce should get the sack but is a bit de ja vous as with Pullis. Brought in to keep us in the loadsamoneyship on our side and to get back into management on Sams side. If he keeps us up his standing in football returns after the England debacle,somebody will come calling. If we get relegated not sure he will want to stay on I don't think he will be able to replicate what is happening at Newcastle There will be another club looking for his Houdini act with more to offer than us. Hoping that he does the impossible but I think it is harder than the Tony Pullis challenge.

We shoul always be looking just in case, and we should always be looking for replacements for current players.
