Crystal Palace boss Sam Allardyce is due another massive windfall for guiding the club to Premier League safety.

Allardyce earned £2million for ­keeping Sunderland up last ­season and was given a £1m pay-off when sacked by England in September.

And victory over Burnley at Selhurst Park will secure their place in the top flight for a fifth year.

It will also see Allardyce, never relegated from the top flight, rewarded with another £2m bonus in the most lucrative and ­controversial 12 months of his long spell in ­management.

“A bit of a roller-coaster? It could be a series, never mind just a bit," he smiled. “I'm only delighted I've helped to guide Crystal Palace through a very difficult period, with lots of help from many people."
