Holiday More Important To Allardyce

Last updated : 23 May 2015 By Covsupport News Service

Former Coventry City defender Sam Allardyce will learn if he is still the manager of West Ham United tomorrow.

However, Allardyce will not be attending the meeting with David Gold and Karren Brady and will be sending his agent Mark Curtis.

Allardyce is going on holiday with his family and is quoted by a number of media outlets as saying: “It will all be sorted one way or another on Monday.

“I am not personally having a meeting. But my agent will be available to speak to the owners.

"I want to take the only opportunity I have, which is half term, to go away with my grandchildren.

“I can meet the owners when I come back. I sacrifice all my family when I do the job.

"I have the opportunity once in the year to be with them, and be with them on holiday. They live up in the north west and I live down here and it is rare that I see them.

"In my career, I rarely saw my own children growing up so it’s always been important to be with them this week - and I have done that for many years.

"That is important for me. There is the whole summer to sort things out. I am hopeful it’s not my final game.

"But we will wait and see. The full situation will be resolved next week and we will take it from there."
