Sam Allardyce resigns from Crystal Palace and retires from football.

Following earlier media reports, Sam Allardyce has confirmed he no longer wishes to manage Crystal Palace, and has no plans to manage again.
Allardyce replaced Alan Pardew in December with the Eagles one point above the drop zone.
He signed a two-year deal, but the 62-year-old, led the club to eight wins in 21 games and 14th place finish
Alladyce Statement
“I have no ambitions to take another job”.
“I want to be able to savour life while I am still relatively young, and when I am still relatively healthy enough to do all the things I want to do, like travel, spend more time with my family and grandchildren without the huge pressure that comes with being a football manager.
“This is the right time for me. I simply want to be able to enjoy all the things you cannot really enjoy with the 24/7 demands of managing any football club, let alone one in the Premier League.”
