BIG SAM RETURNS
Finally, to round up this weekend, we couldn’t not talk about the return of Sam Allardyce, could we?
The 60-year-old returned to the dugout as Sunderland manager last week, and traveled to West Bromwich Albion with his out-of-sorts Black Cats side, who sit bottom of the Premier League pile.
His first game as manager ended in defeat, as Saido Berahino notched the solitary goal at the Hawthorns – next week for Sam, is a home game against local North East rivals, and his former club, Newcastle.
