Samba will quit if Allardyce quit

BLACKBURN skipper Chris Samba has vowed to quit the club over the axing of Sam Allardyce.

Big Sam was sacked as boss last week by the club's new Indian owners, the Venky's food group.
But Samba, 26, raged: "If this is the way the club's going to be run from now on, I don't want to be part of it and I want to leave.
"As captain it's very difficult to say this but I've thought long and hard about it. Nobody in football understands the decision to sack Sam."
Samba reckons Rovers chairman John Williams was used as a stooge in the whole affair.
The Congo defender said: "I'm sure Mr Williams would not have made this decision. He's a football man and respects what a great job Sam has done.
"We could have been relegated last year and Sam saved the club, so how can he be treated like this now?"
Samba also cannot understand why the new owners acted without knowing who Allardyce's replacement would be.
Caretaker Steve Kean - one of Allardyce's former coaches - is being tipped to get the job.
But Samba added: "The players and fans need answers about the club's future. Unless we commit to who the manager is, how can we attract big players in January?"
