West Ham boss Sam Allardyce is planning for the new season without Scott Parker as Premier League clubs continue to track the midfielder.[LNB] Allardyce, who replaced Avram Grant in June, expects Parker to line-up for his side in their Championship opener at home to Cardiff on Sunday.[LNB]However, the former Bolton boss admits the player will leave should the right offer come in and as such his plans for the new campaign do not include the 30-year-old.[LNB]"At the end of the day, Scott's position is delicate because at any one time, someone will hit the numbers that we would value him at," Allardyce told the Sun.[LNB]"If that's the case and it's the Premier League - a place where he wants to be - he will be gone. It would be wrong of me to plan with Scott."
