Appointed better managers. Unless you think it was a good idea to allow Owen Coyle to run up a £55 million wage bill which is what Davies and Gartside did.
Good comedy
The season Bolton finished 6th only 3 clubs in the Premier League had a lower wage bill. Newcastle's wage bill was twice as big as ours.Southampton were relegated with a higher wage bill than us.
Julian Darby, Paul Comstive, Steve Thompson, Stuart Storer was the midfield 4 that lost the play off final to Tranmere.Thats worse than the one we have now imo.
And it got Bolton into 6th place in the Premier League level on points with Liverpool and above mighty spenders Tottenham and Newcastle.
And that was without a goal scorer!
Nail on the head.There is no leadership from the boardroom and it needs to come from Davies because its him who sets the targets and decides when Freedman is sacked and who he is replaced with not Gartside.Gartside has the power to let Hughesy put his flag on the empty seats in the South Stand but not the major decisions needed to get the football club out of this depressing slump.
Blackburn, Chelsea and Man City have won the Premier League thanks to new owners giving them a load of cash. The owners weren't there to recoup money but spend it on their playthings.Then there are owners like the ones Man Utd have who have bought their clubs to make money.
It would be nice for Bolton to have one of the former type and win some silverware
I think that's Bolton but a bit later they weren't so keen when the opportunity was there. About 7.45 pm a mob of 100 Bury walked up that side of the road and stopped opposite the entrance to the pubs.They were on our manor giving it the big one outside our pub but sadly our mob offered as much attacking menace as Beckford and Wilkinson.Nothing happened and Bury were just escorted on to the ground.
