Sam forgets his own disrespectful behaviour

This weekends Liverpool Echo has a great article written by Tony Barrett illustrating the hypocrisy of Sam Allardyce. Titled “Why Sam Allardyce is so big on disrespect” the piece goes on to draw attention to an incident three years ago. “With his Bolton team 3-0 up and coasting away to Watford in the FA Cup, the then Bolton boss decided to bring on youth team keeper Sam Ashton but instead of replacing Ian Walker in goal, he came on for centre forward Jared Borgetti and played up front.” Allardyce clearly has forgotten all his past discretions in the game and in his own mind re-invented himself as some sort of white knight galloping towards justice. Although its more likely he would gallop quicker towards an oven baked meat pastry.
