Fans took to Twitter and it’s safe to say opinion is divided on there.
One commented, ‘Can’t hate the man.’
Another added, ‘Vintage ? More old hat . He should be thankful people are daft enough to still hire him.’
A third said, ‘Big Sam oozes a man who came out of retirement for a massive pay day and a bit of a laugh.’
A fourth said, ‘Vintage Sam Allardyce being a complete and utter bell.’
