champers Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Crying shame really. Freedman had to go after Wednesday night but not altogether sure who could do any better. As a Wanderers fan, Id like to see Sunbed or Moose get the job (that's Phil Brown or Mixu Paatelainen, for non-believers). It's been downhill all the way since Big Sam left. Biggest problem at Bolton? In 25 years the number of players coming through the youth system to establish themselves in the first team is a paltry 3. Repeat: 3 in 25 years. Bottom of the division, £160+ Million in debt. Things aren't good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

champers Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Bolton confirmed their bottom place by losing at home to a team down to ten men for most of the game. Not a good start. Two weeks now to find a miracle worker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naboo Posted October 7, 2014 Author Share Posted October 7, 2014 Over the weekend, Beppe Sannino quit as Watford boss. Apparently he didn't get on with the players. His replacement, Billy McKinlay, leaving after two games in charge. 3rd in the table, what's going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 ^ Coyle? Very doubtful. He could never get to grips with sorting out the defence and was held largely responsible for our biggest humiliation in years when Stoke hammered us 5-0 in the FA Cup semi-final. Did some very good work with Sturridge and Wiltshire when we had them on loan, but it's dogfight time now and I don't think that's his strength. Phil Brown is looking like the warm favourite, but the club is taking their time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really a gambler, but I'm passing Mr Power's place tomorrow and I might have a look in. Perhaps I'll have to back him EW if 16s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naboo Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 Lennon's not very good with stress..... The Celtic job was never very stressful, probably the easiest job in the land these last few years. I don't think Bolton will go very well for him.

champers Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Yes, but only in training sessions. He can ban them training in pants for me, if he can actually get them to win a match. Not a bad start against Birmingham away whose dreadful home form isn't as dreadful as our dreadful away form, but still, Brian, the lads could do good.

champers Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Neil Lennon is a football genius; Bolton won 1-0 away at Birmingham, and missed a penalty too. NL did manage to get himself sent to the stands by the ref, blaming the "different rules in England". Nothing to do with his over excitable behaviour.

Er, salty old son, have you ever asked yourself why Martin O'Neill from a similar background never had these problems. Could it be because Lennon was known for being a visible, voluble and enthusiastic attender at Sinn Fein/PIRA gatherings. That and being a horrible git.

Martin O'Neill never played for Celtic unlike Neil Lennon. You are the only person I know who connects Lenny to the IRA. This does not surprise me given your periodic anti Celtic rants. Neil's "crime" was to be an RC from NI and sign for Celtic. Sure he was and is an abrasive character but then he would have plenty of managerial company in that regard. It is interesting your "outrage" does not extend to sending parcel bombs and bullets to him in the post. Presumably that is okay because he is a "horrible git". http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/may/25/neil-lennon-persecution-shames-scotland-celtic-manager#start-of-comments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Methinks good old 'arry has lost the plot He also criticized Redknapps training methods and lack of tactics claiming theres more to it than "going out there and running around a bit." The lad seems to have a point. Its about time Redknapp called it a day. Writings on the wall when you publicly slate your players and i've also noted Redknapps fundamental inability to shoulder any of the blame.
