No for me. He is destroying us and had enough of excuse after excuse.

Simple fact is we went into this season with a worse off squad than last and that was after spending 20mill. Shambles.

I've voted to keep.

I have little faith that a decent replacement is out there.

I've always rated Malky but hand on heart I couldn't say this is the right job for him at this moment.

I suppose it just comes down to my feeling about it. I may be wrong but I would stick.

A week ago I was in the Yes camp but I've had enough of the fat one-emphatic NO from me.

I like Allardyce and i've been one of his biggest backers since he came to the club. I've always put our league position over our performance, last year for example 10th place finish i'll ignore the hoofball. But this year struggling and rubbish performances, strange team selections and substitutions are starting to get to me. Our squad IS good enough when all fit and I dont think he has lost the dressing room at all, but is he the right man still? Maybe not, definitely not next season.

No from me!

Could people who want him to stay not do the same?

Or do you think the type of people who want him sacked are the type without the patience to read all the way to the end of one sentence? You could be onto something there actually.

Yes from me. He is the manager you want in this situation and I could not see another manager getting more from our squad

Until recently I would have said ye but over the last few games I've lost faith in him so it was a 'no' from me. However I'm struggling to think who we can get in to replace him

I voted yes. My reasons;

1) There are no suitable candidates in the marketplace.
2) It'd cost between £2m - £6m to get rid (money which will presumably affect our transfer pot for Jan)
3) I believe the problems are more related to injuries and poor player performances, rather than Sam's tactics and selections

If he lasted today, he'll last the rest of the season. So we just have to get behind the team now.

I still think this is a completely different scenario to the bad spells we had under Grant and Pardew. Keep the faith!

I hope we are going to start a similar poll after a win. This seems rather cruel to do this when the blokes at his lowest ebb with injuries and suspensions.
