Sunderland frustrated by wait for Sam Allardyce news following England talks

Sunderland are growing increasingly frustrated at the wait to discover whether or not they will need to find a replacement for boss Sam Allardyce after his talks with the Football Association.

Almost a week has passed since the 61-year-old held discussions with the FA over the England manager's job, which became vacant when Roy Hodgson stepped down after a disappointing Euro 2016 finals campaign in France.
