On Tuesday, Telegraph announced the findings from their sting operations finding England head-coach Sam Allardyce guilty on multiple grounds. The former Aston Villa and Sunderland manager used his position as England manager to negotiate a £400,000 deal and offered advice to businessmen on how to “get around” FA rules on player transfers.
A few hours later, Allardyce was summoned to Wembley before he was eventually sacked, after spending just 67 days at the helm. He coached the Three Lions for just one game and ended up on the winning side – becoming the first England manager in history to have a hundred percent record.
Football fans took to Twitter to express their displeasure about Allardyce’s antics:
The main defence of Sam Allardyce appears to be ‘assumed it would be worse’. Which is a wonderfully damning indictment.

Rumours Paul Gascoigne has turned up at Wembley with cans of lager, some chicken & a fishing rod, claiming to be a friend of #SamAllardyce

How could FA be sure that Big Sam was speaking facts when he was seriously drunk or high. #SamAllardyce

Good on the FA for sacking #SamAllardyce as England Manager. In just 67 days l, he showed his true colours of being corrupt.

While many saw Harry Redknapp as an apt replacement:
What England needs is a manager of impeccable ethics, whose financial dealings are always above board. Harry Redknapp, anyone? #SamAllardyce

Looking forward to FA unveiling their next candidate, a whiter than white individual who no newspaper could find any dirt on: Harry Redknapp

Fully expect Harry Redknapp to pull up at the FA in his car with the window rolled down.
