Dowie Believes Allardyce Would Be Happy With Spurs Match

The former West Ham United player, Iain Dowie, has said that Sam Allardyce would be very happy to face Tottenham Hotspur first up during the 2014-15 Premier League

The performance of West Ham United against Tottenham Hotspur in the last season was quite good. They had defeated the Spurs three times, twice in the Premier League and once in the Capital One Cup.

The win that West Ham secured against Tottenham at White Hart Lane towards the end of the last year was their first at that venue in more than a decade.

Now, the FA has given the Hammers an early opportunity to continue their good form against Tottenham by slotting their first league game of the upcoming season against the North Londoners.

Allardyce Future Decided Next Week

The future of Sam Allardyce as the head coach of West Ham remains unclear as there are a few meetings which are expected to place in the next few days or even weeks concerning the future of Allardyce and Stewart Downing is hoping that the English coach remains in his current position for the years to come.

“I hope that performance puts to bed all the speculation about the manager. When you lose games, the manager takes most of the criticism but I think he’s handled it really well, in difficult circumstances at times. “We would love him to stay, he’s part of the reason why I came to the club but obviously the owners make all those decisions’’.
