SACKED ENGLAND MANAGER TENDERS APOLOGY FOR HIS ACTIONS

Sam Allardyce says he is ‘deeply
disappointed’ to lose his position as England
manager after just 67 days at the helm.
Allardyce was targeted in a Daily Telegraph
investigation into alleged corruption in English
football, and the departure of the 61-year-old
was confirmed following crisis talks involving
FA chairman Greg Clarke and chief executive
Martin Glenn.
Former Bolton and West Ham manager
Allardyce said: “Further to recent events, The
FA and I have mutually agreed to part
company.
“It was a great honour for me to be appointed
back in July and I am deeply disappointed at
this outcome.
“This afternoon (Tuesday), I met with Greg
Clarke and Martin Glenn and offered a sincere
and wholehearted apology for my actions.
“Although it was made clear during the
recorded conversations that any proposed
arrangements would need The FA’s full
approval, I recognise I made some comments
which have caused embarrassment.
“As part of today’s meeting, I was asked to
clarify what I said and the context in which
the conversations took place. I have co-
operated fully in this regard.
“I also regret my comments with regard to
other individuals.”
