I don’t think I have ever seen a manager of our club sort his target signings out so early. I’ve got to hand it to Allardyce when he has a player in mind he goes in early doors to make sure he gets his man. Generally we have always been a club that has left targets way too late and lost out to them and missed out on others while doing so but Allardyce has changed all …
