Was thinking along similar lines 'maybe a bit bit blurred though, when I heard he'd quit CPSam Allardyce has left Crystal Palace making him free to become part of Gary Hoffmans consortium? No conflicting interests like before. Gets to stay in football without the day to day running of a team, which he feels too old for. Read his autobiography, loved his time at Cov, mates with Gouldy, loves a gamble. Watch this space. PUSB

If he came in as a co investor and also with a remit to rebuild the football side of the business that would be a great coup for us. I'd massively support that.
According to TalkSport has been personally affected by the Manchester bomb and needs time away.
why do you think he would give up a job in the Premiership to get involved with us? I'm not saying he wouldn't, just seems like a strange move.
He told the Palace chairman about his intentions on Saturday though.According to TalkSport has been personally affected by the Manchester bomb and needs time away.
The clue may lie in his resignation statement - says the full on 24/7 management "especially in the Premier League" isn't for him any more, wants to enjoy life while he is still reasonably young and healthy. But somehow you can't imagine him sitting around at home pruning the rose bushes.
So instead of the hamster wheel of steering clubs away from the drop zone, he could work for us in a more relaxed way; partly as an investor, partly as a different and less intense role but keeping his hand in within football, partly as a retirement project. It would give him the chance to work in a business he co-owns, and he'd be able to work on club development in a less "coal face", more strategic way - maybe not full time but certainly in a overseeing role where he could influence our longer term development which you can't do as a manager.
See my post aboveHe is a multi millionaire ffs and good luck to him, 62 years old, had a bit of a health scare a bit back he's doing the best thing imo, will still get the odd gig on TV/ radio as a pundit for certain. There's no pockets in shrouds.
As for working with us, why ??
Having to work into your 60s ?? Blame the lovable tories for that and their reasons ?? You are living longer !!"There's no pockets in shrouds". - You can request all sorts from funeral directors these days but it may be why I am where I am, having to work into my 60s but why Diego Costa would ever go to China for the money when he has accumulated more money than he needs already, hopefully Rooney will go to a club for the right reasons and not chasing more dollar.
In fairness, Grimsby play in Cleethorpes, Sam could get himself a lovely caravan by the North SeaYeah when he said he wanted to spend time with family and travelling, I also naturally assumed he was talking about to Grimsby and Yeovil as well...
If you are standing at the main road with the stadium behind you there is a set of traffic lights to your right. The other side of the traffic lights is Grimsby. Behind the stadium is the mouth of the river Humber. The locals go to Mablethorpe, Sutton-on-Sea or Skeggy and leave the holiday makers to the river that looks like the sea :dead:In fairness, Grimsby play in Cleethorpes, Sam could get himself a lovely caravan by the North Sea
Think Coleen will have something to say about that after his little escursion to the Casino"There's no pockets in shrouds". - You can request all sorts from funeral directors these days but it may be why I am where I am, having to work into my 60s but why Diego Costa would ever go to China for the money when he has accumulated more money than he needs already, hopefully Rooney will go to a club for the right reasons and not chasing more dollar.
