He accepts he made a significant error of judgement and has apologised.However, due to the serious nature of his actions, the FA and Allardyce have mutually agreed to terminate his contract with immediate effect. "This is not a decision that was taken lightly but the FA's priority is to protect the wider interests of the game and maintain the highest standards of conduct in football.  "The manager of the England men's senior team is a position which must demonstrate strong leadership and show respect for the integrity of the game at all times. "Gareth Southgate will take charge of the men's senior team for the next four matches against Malta, Slovenia, Scotland and Spain whilst the FA begins its search for the new England manager."The FA wishes Sam well in the future."England won Allardyce's sole match in charge, a 1-0 World Cup qualifying victory in Slovakia thanks to an injury time goal from Adam Lallana. In a short video clip released by the FA, chief executive Martin Glenn, who oversaw Allardyce's appointment following England's Euro 2016 elimination, said: "[It has been] a very difficult 24 hours, in the light of the media allegations we have seen we've concluded and Sam's agreed that his behaviour has been inappropriate and frankly not what is expected of an England manager - discussing a range of issues from potential contravention of FA rules through to personal comments that frankly just don't work when you're the manager of England."</blockquote>
