On Forbes: A Chance to Prove Their Doubters Wrong

Who got the last laugh, Venky's?

My latest post at Forbes examines the performance of Sam Allardyce and his recently-promoted West Ham United. The Hammers earned promotion back to the Premier League on Saturuday via a last-minute win against Blackpool that was decided on a thrilling goal by Ricardo Vaz Te. My analysis looks at how well Allardyce has done over the years, and what it might mean for West Ham's chances of not only staying up next year but also their chances of long term success given their manager's track record.
