Realistically, Allardyce was just there to keep Everton up and was never going to get a second season with his tainted reputation. West Ham are deluding themselves again if they think they're going to get a better manager than Moyes who's better off out of there.

And that could offer West Ham the encouragement needed to make an official approach.
