Nahh, I'm not buying all this "Big Sam, toad beneath the harrow" bollocks. He's a bit like 'Arry, leaves the same quite agreeable impression of a chancer who'll always find someone else willing to put a roof over his head. No disaster will keep him down for long. He's not like Moyes, who I suspect may be fast approaching some kind of breakdown.

Good pic tho
