Big Sam Blunders : “Having just arrived he could be going this week”

Sam Allardyce has told friends he fears he will be sacked over sensational claims he used his job to land a £400,000 deal before giving advice to businessmen on how to ‘get around’ player transfer rules.
The England manager’s career has been thrown into jeopardy after he was filmed apparently dishing out controversial tips to undercover reporters from the Daily Telegraph who were posing as businessmen from a Far East firm.
Last night, as the bombshell claims emerged, new FA chairman Greg Clarke and chief executive Martin Glenn met for crisis talks and hauled Allardyce to a meeting where he was grilled about the allegations.
