What a joke, after 8 months he has been sacked. Do they not realise that a new manager needs to get the team to fit what he wants. He is an excellent manager, and I think Newcastle will regret this decision, they had a manager who could take them close to the top 3 or even into it.

Oh well, lets see who they get next.

It was always gonna happen. Time will tell whether or not it is the right decision from the clubs point of view, but I think most knew he was going to be shown the door at some point. Yes, a new manager does need time to get a squad playing his way, but I think a man of Allardyce's calibre should have been getting some more consistent results even in the short time he had.

Ridiculous decision!

If the Newcastle board had shown a bit of patience and faith in Allardyce then i'm pretty sure he would have delivered the silverware they so crave up there!

Instead it's back to square one for Newcastle - will they ever learn?!

Thats the 8th manager gone in the Premiership this season......disgraceful that to me shows how much money has taken over top flight football, people are so scared of loosing places therefore money they get rid of managers if they have a bad month.

I can't see who Newcastle are going to attract who is any better!!
