West Ham boss, Allardyce gets text from Mourinho, kiss from Comedian for beating Man City

Has West Ham manager, Sam Allardyce ever been appreciated this much for winning a game in his life? May be not because, his team’s 2-1 beating of Manchester City at Upton Park on Saturday attracted a torrent of joy and accolades.

Some of them include Comedian and West Ham fan, Russell Brand, crashing Big Sam’s post match interview and kissing him on the cheek and then Chelsea boss, Jose Mourinho sending him a thank you text.

Man City’s defeat means that Chelsea could go six points clear of their major title rivals, at the top of the table if they beat Manchester United

 “Jose has just texted me to say “Well done big man”,’ Allardyce said, “This shows how important it was for him, never mind for us.

“He goes to Manchester United knowing his team will go and perform at their best and if they win it makes the gap even bigger”.

He however added: “The result wasn’t for him. It was for us and everyone at West Ham. It will benefit him if they go and get a result at Manchester United”.

After being smothered with kiss by excited Brand, Allardyce said: “You can see what it [the win] means after that, brilliant”
