Allardyce Wants To See The Old Fashioned 'Boot'!

Charles N'Zogbia (thank God) has other ideas, but Sam blamed his defenders for the defeat at East fields, simply because they didn't put a boot behind the ball.

Newcastle boss has a reputation for 'route one', but he received the backing of Sven'Goran Eriksson on Saturday.

"Sam does what he does best, and that maybe 'route one', but why sould anyone say it is wrong?"

Probably 50,000 Newcastle fans, if the truth was known, but the ex-Bolton boss wants to see more of "give it a boot"!

Sam Allardyce: "We committed defensive suicide.

"All our defenders have to do is clear the ball back up the pitch and we just didn't.

"After that, they contained us and played on the break, which was exactly what I had asked my players to do."
