God bless you Nat, Heaven has taken a true gentlemen and a football and Bolton Wanderers legend.

I second that, but a similar second half to the season will only highlight Owen even further to the new Anfield board. I only hope now Kenny wins 15 out of the next 18 !!!!

Read this it appears they were battling between themselves and throwing seats from the upper to the lower tier on their fans http://oatcakefanzine.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=Potters&action=display&thread=138705&page=1

Cant big Phil get Jenny in to do the half time draw, imagine the fat scouse gits face if he was to run past her in the tunnel, then he's met with a rendition of 'you've only come to see your girlfriend'!!!

Caldwell was on Talksport saying Owen had spent the day ringing players saying thanks and goodbye, Burnley chairman bleating on SSN. There is no way he wont be our manager!

Your right its been a long day listening to all the Leeds fans!!

It means anyone who's had a decent bet at less than 1.2 is now laying off at 1.2 to guarantee a nice little windfall!!

If you click the stat bar next to Owens name it will tell you exactly what bets have been placed, biggest bet a min ago was just over 1K at 1.4ish

Watch out for ?2000 to be layed at 1.4

I would advise real caution with these markets, its a done deal when hes sat next to Phil Gartside at the Press Conference. Too many people in these markets trying to make their screen green which seems to think people are ITK when in reality they are trying to make a quick buck. I think the usual average on betfair is around 4 managers to go to around 1.5 in the length it takes to appoint a manager. Heres hoping we reverse those stats! Mr Harry Redknapp is the master of inflating these markets in his managerial merry go round!

If you had layed every 1.1 new manager on betfair in the last decade you would now been in a mansion! Not saying it wont happen but the nature of betfair means these markets go crazy due to the fact you can bet and lay. With the age of internet forums rumours spread people go in for a quick buck then immediately lay so until the bubble bursts on that name the trade goes down and down!! I hope the above doesnt relate to Owen Coyle as I think he will most defintely unite the club both players and fans and also if he is to leave Burnley for us Uncle Eddie must of promised him a windfall!!

I wonder if they want a big following to welcome the new coach, if so could be popular with Coyle unveiled? http://www.bwfc.co.uk/page/General/0,,1004~1919978,00.html

Megson found us at the bottom and 2 years later and God knows how much money and how many rubbish players he is returning us to where he found us. PLEASE GET SHUT OF THIS IDIOT BEFORE ITS TOO LATE!

Sat with Ricky myself last weekend, glad to here he's been released. I am currently in Jamaica so will try and get to see the game some where on Sat!! Only one Gary Cahill!!

Dont think he could say to his new employers I aint doing 10-20% of my job?

No idea about the others but Utd brought at least 1800 less this season than last!

The Nandos is on the Reebok right on the first roundabout you hit on the complex near Focus end!

Just to think the week started with Megson stating he's backed by the board to buy who he wants and was after Veloso. Come Wednesday we dont have the funds and come Friday quite possibly the captain is being sold to Newcastle. Considering Megson has stated we have a severly weakened squad and there are no signs of anyone incoming. I can only see a club in distress? Thoughts??

I only wish he wouldnt associate us all with that moronic element. Believe it or not Gary not everyone thinks what they chant!

Taken from tribal apparently from the Mirror

More Reports today :- Bolton Wanderers boss Gary Megson is offering a club record ?12 million for Sporting Lisbon midfielder Miguel Veloso. A delegation of officials from Bolton have been in the Portuguese capital this week, according to reports in the Mirror, to negotiate a transfer for a player who has been the subject of interest from Everton and Manchester United in the past. Should Bolton be given permission to talk to the player they are convinced they will be able to bring him to the Reebok Stadium before the end of the month. Should they be successful the deal would represent a massive coup for Bolton who, after a difficult start to the season, have shown improving form of late. However, signing Veloso would still represent a remarkable move and would eclipse even their audacious signing of Nicolas Anelka.

Great article, cant remember the last time I read that one of our players actually enjoys playing for us!

Cant see Denilson mixing in the Bluebell (Atherton)

Nolan didint play well today but there was a lot worse. Personally I would of rested a few at Anfield and played the kids in preparation for the Pies game. Then again didnt we try that last March?
