This is Up Front with Simon Jordan. A show brought to you by William Hill that pulls no punches and tells it EXACTLY like it is.
Sam Allardyce is a name that is synonymous with the Premier League. Portrayed as a long ball specialist, branded a dinosaur and even renowned as a revolutionary, you simply cannot tell the story of modern British football without the man they call ‘Big Sam’.
Fresh from his short term Leeds United experiment, Sam joins the show to discuss his time at Leeds whilst looking back at the key moments in his career. Whether it’s his success at Bolton Wanderers or the pain of losing the England job. Nothing is off the table in this week’s episode of Up Front.

Who didn’t love watching Bolton with Okacha, Ngotty and Ivan Campo? I remember being in a cab in London 20 years ago and the driver going on about how he loved watching Bolton, but he was an Arsenal fan. That Bolton team had world class players and they were never traditionally a big club.

29.00 - I absolutely agree that a player who gets through all the levels and plays first team professional football has achieved the equivalent of a Masters Degree. That's a great point. My work colleague has the same theory about rugby. That the game is so complicated to learn, those who go on to become elite were probably going to excel at whatever they did in life (if coached properly) whether it was construction, farming, finance or whatever.

@@TubbyBrewster11 I actually think he would. Look at the split second decision making, the ability to "execute" a game plan that involved meticulous studying, and the huge amount of hours put into perfecting his craft right back to aged 8. That's the same as the 8 year old kid who studied non stop in school, got solid A Level results, did more exams in University, and then went into the world of finance, politics, or anything complicated where vital decision making and taking on huge responsibility with massive consequences is a constant. I guarantee you that if Grealish had put his mind to academic studies as an 8 year old, and graduated as a Barrister as an example, he would be top class as that's his intelligence and his mindset as he proves every week.

Big Sam is Sound. Old school type of fella. He's a decent enough Man. Just made a big mistake with the whole England fiasco thing. Should of known better but we Live and Learn and I'm sure it's 1 of his biggest regrets if not rhe biggest he has. But then again he can still claim the 100% win record for England 😂 These perceived managers like Dyche, Allardyce etc. Always get painted a certain way in media. I'd love to see what would happen if you gave them 2 full seasons at a top 6, top 4 club to see properly how they get on. As far as I can remember I don't think it's ever happened and that's a huge shame really.

Brighton seem to be flavor of the month at the moment. Their data driven approach to transfers etc. You can call this guy a dinosaur but he was using stats years ago to dictate how he'd play games, set his teams up. Think it was the opta index back then...... Maybe he's dated now but that happens to all of us. Definitely a character...... Need more of them

Being called Big Sam with a moniker as a dinasour, and being branded as a long ball merchant worked in his favour as some opposition teams probably expected to win easily, when in reality the football was not simply long ball, but actually really effective, which contiibuted to winning more games.

I’m no Jordan fan boy but his interviewing skills and getting out of the guest the answers to the questions we all want to hear nevermind bringing the guest to a level of openness we never get to see on the likes of talksport. Simon is someone I admire for how he negotiates his opinions. There’s no back doors, no walking the dog, just straight forward talking, often against the mainstream narrative, I don’t agree with him that much but I certainly enjoy how he handles himself!

Bravo! Thankyou Mr Jordan... as a Leeds fan I admit I hated (HATED!!) the prospect of Sam managing Leeds... but frankly he was the only choice and I applaud him. This interview was challenging and open and I have to say respect to Sam (and to Simon).. compelling conversation and shows you (I) shouldn't judge a book by its cover. As a northerner I can say that even Sam can come across as uncouth and brash.. and yet peel back the onion and there is intelligence, wit, humour and some regret in there... We all make mistakes in our lives and the England situation for sure I know Sam made mistakes.. but I see him from a different viewpoint now... and have taken some learning.. Thankyou both.

A good success example is how American sports are intertwined with the educational system even if the young talent doesn't make it, they still have something to fall back on. This model has worked for everyone involved in American sports from players, colleges/universities, high schools, teams/clubs, sponsors, fans etc.. 🏈🏀⚾🎓

It was a complete travesty that happened with the England job. The FA acted disgracefully! I was absolutely delighted when you got the job and equally distraught when they took it away from you. A true working class hero 🙏🫡 Also well done to Simon for sticking up for Sam on that issue.

Great at Bolton Wanderers both as Centre Half & later as Team Manager for 10 years at Top level in Premier League. Big Sam did a good job at Sunderland where previously he played. As Manager he kept Sunderland against all odds in English Premier League winning relegation battle with Geordie rivals Newcastle United (the mags) & Norwich City. Fans of the Black Cats were devastated when Sam Allardyce left to take England Job.

Great interview Simon have always liked Big Sam. He managed Limerick Fc here in the League of Ireland who now have just an academy sides in the League of Ireland. The new senior side is Treaty United which will play at the Markets Field where Sam would have managed. Sam is someone who I wish was given a chance at a bigger club. Would much of rathered him being United manager than moysie. What about getting Roy Keane on next?

Nearly 10 mins on him not really answering the question (put 3 or 4 times) on how he felt about being called Big Sam. I usually watch all of these but its flatlined already for me. He certainly was innovative but can't seem to express that, concisely. I was actually pleased he got the England job.
