Sam Allardyce does not expect his West Ham contract to be renewed until the last minute — but believes only a change in ownership will scupper his chances of a new deal. Allardyce has overseen a stunning season despite not knowing if he will have a future at the club beyond the summer, when his contract runs out. No talks have yet been planned but Allardyce, whose previous two-year extension was signed in May 2013, insisted he is ‘comfortable’ to wait. West Ham manager Sam Allardyce is confident he will be offered a new deal by the club soon West Ham supporters displayed a 'Fat Sam Out ' banner during West Ham's defeat to West Brom in April 2014
