West Ham away, possibly. Spurs possibly.

However, if his immediate *impact* is like the one he had with us, you could expect City to put 10 past them

Leeds have far, far better players than we did.

Their fans seem to differ on that

Leeds have 4 games left and Allardyce has a record of not immediately turning things around, he normally needs a handful of games before things improve.

Considering the sums of money involved in the premier league, the competence of football management above coaching level is distinctly amateurish.

His record with us was W4 D8 L14, so he completely failed over the course of 26 games and his record was only marginally better than that of Pardew and Styles. Them aside, no other permanent Albion manager has done worse.

Quite frankly, I'm staggered that Leeds are contemplating this.

Tbf Shabby, we’ve had our fair share of coaching level staff that have been distinctly amateurish too

I was thinking specifically of the premier league and this season.

So many clubs making bad decisions  no discernible strategy. Sacking managers, with no idea of what happens next...almost as if just sacking the current manager in itself will improve results and performances.

There was a spell with us I felt he wasn't far from getting it right , Burnley away with 10 men and 4 clear , clear cut chances killed it .
Another month and I don't think we'd have been far off as much as I don't like him.

If we had a finisher I reckon Big Sam would have just got enough to keep us up. A few games we had multiple clear cut chances and failed to convert any of them.

Done deal according to Fabrizio Romano and very rarely is he off the mark.
