Rather bizarre to have Sam Allardyce saying in the Evening Standard that his job has been linked with Rafa Benitez, David Moyes, Marcelo Bielsa, Steve Mclaren, Slaven Bilic, Eddie Howe and Gus Poyet this week. He also produces some Rafa style facts, including the claim that he would have been sacked if West Ham had had a bad run like this at the start of the season — though the evidence from last season suggests Gold and Sullivan tend to stick with managers mid-season. The sooner we get the managerial situation sorted the better as it's taking up too many headlines. Meanwhile there are rumours in the Mirror that Liverpool are trying to hi-jack Carl Jenkinson…
Terry and David, two of my relatives on my mum's side from Stoke, are coming down today to sample the full Upton Park experience of Ken's Cafe, the Central and Black Lion, so let's look forward to a dour goalless draw. Although today's Guardian says Peter Crouch needs just one headed goal to match Alan Shearer's PL record. Let's hope he stays on the bench.
