Sam Allardyce born (October 19, 1954 in Dudley, West Midlands) is a football manager, who was a former footballer and defender for Sunderland A.F.C.. His spell with sunderland-the biggest abomination of a club ever to exist- lasted from 1980-1981. Ironically Sam Allardyce was the manager of newcastle united in 2007, with him being rightly sacked and forced out by the knowledgeable Geordie fans, who had suffered for too long. Of course, the Geordie fans were all in a coma when he had been sacked, due to the monotony of the "football" and Sam's ability to talk a glass eye to sleep when discussing his superior talent in the management arena.
Due to Sam being so brilliant, he has since enjoyed spells as manager of those footballing superpowers Blackburn Rovers (who sacked him for a balding bloke who looks better suited to being a doorman) and West Ham United, whose fans love him to this day.
Sam is currently sitting by his telephone, awaiting the inevitable call from Real Madrid, Barcelona or England. Apparently he plans to tell the FA they can "get stuffed" as they didn't recognise him for the worlds best manager that he undoubtedly is when they instead appointed that bloke whose accent changes whenever he steps into a different city in 2007. I think he was called Schteeve.
