Allardyce Nowhere Near As Good As Thinks He Is!

But the fans are far from convinced, and Allardyce admitted the pressure is back on.

It took a last-minute Joey Barton penalty to see off Fulham and Habib Beye's injury-time header to beat Birmingham City. We carried the luck, but it ran out against doomed Derby and struggling Wigan.

Allardyce: "It's the same old story, isn't it?

"You lose a game and lose it badly and you are under the cosh, especially if you are the manager.

"I cannot blame the fans for what they were singing. We were not good enough and you don't need to be an expert to see that.

"They spend their hard-earned money and they want to see us fight and do an awful lot better than we did."
