Big Sam’s in position

I HAD to chuckle when I saw Sam Allardyce at Selhurst Park at the weekend.

This international break is football’s equivalent of Easter, given his annual resurrection.

First Big Sam tests the water with Richard Keys and Andy Gray out in Qatar.

Then he drip feeds himself into Sky, BT and talk SPORT saying: “Here I am, the batphone is ready and I’m waiting for the call.”
