BLACKBURN MP Jack Straw has compared Gordon Brown to Rovers boss Sam Allardyce.
Justice Secretary Mr Straw said the beleaguered Prime Minister and Allardyce, who led his team to a 2-1 victory over Aston Villa on Saturday, both showed “good leadership”.
He added: “Neither of them are pin-ups.
“But people will see real quality.”
He was interviewed by the Financial Times at Labour’s annual conference in Brighton.
