Mind you, better he's at Palace than in charge of the national side.
He's the only England manager with 100% record.

Outside of 3rd world politics, In what other job could you be sacked so publicly for something as serious as corruption, and yet re employed by a seemingly reputable entity just weeks later? In my industry you'd be finished for good.
I'm not someone who rants against standards in professional football normally and I know it's not the most transparent and respected industry, but I find this genuinely distasteful and I'm surprised there's not more of a moral backlash.
In fairness to Allardyce... What the Telegraph had on him was a long, long way short of corruption.Outside of 3rd world politics, In what other job could you be sacked so publicly for something as serious as corruption, and yet re employed by a seemingly reputable entity just weeks later?

Banking/financial services and tabloid journalism spring to mind immediately as two areas of employment where ethics don't play a huge role. And politics across the globe is riddled with crooks.

Ah, but Malky has been on a course and kept a scrapbook as evidence of how he's not like that no more mister.Very similar to the Malky Mackay situation - very publicly sacked for racism, homophobia, anti-Semitism and sexism - later given one of the top jobs within the SFA developing football.
Micky Turian scores with a diving backheel!
Will that be declared to the tax man, if they stay up? Or slipped to him in a brown envelope(or a suitcase)?Even though my misses and Adrian, plus one or two more, are Palace fans, I hope they get relegated as I just read that Allardyce has been offered £4 million (in addition to his salary) just to avoid relegation.
Did I hear right .He'd only been on the pitch for 4 mins and just back from a ban for fighting a team mateJermaine Beckford proves he is still all Leeds today
