Coleman and Andy Holt have been at loggerheads for a while.

Whilst the timing of the decision wasn't always clear, it was always going to happen by the end of the season.
Perhaps yesterday's hammering was the final nail.

[TrickyTrotter]

Coleman and Riddle seem to think they own the club and Holt's money has been incidental.

Think Holt's said he wants out.  Just need someone to put up the money.  Suspect liquidation (again) looms.

[Dr. Feelgood]

4-0 (as it was at half-time) away to Wrexham. Currently 16th. No danger of going up, or down.

Punched way above their weight for ages. 

[Lt. Aldo Raine]

Holt's now deleted his Twitter account (until he inevitably reactivates it in a few days)

Is the big rubbish bin some sort of Freudian message?

Since Sean Dyche left Vicarage Road in 2012, Gianfranco Zola, Giuseppe Sannino, Oscar Garcia, Billy McKinlay, Slavisa Jokanovic, Quique Sanchez Flores, Walter Mazzarri, Marco Silva, Javi Gracia, Nigel Pearson, Vladimir Ivic, Xisco Munoz, Claudio Ranieri, Roy Hodgson, Rob Edwards, Slaven Bilic and Chris Wilder and now Valerian Ishmael have also had spells in charge.

19 since 2012.

Amazing and still managers take the job possibly aware they will get a payout once fired .

Yeah I imagine it’s quite an attractive job as I think you walk away blameless and onto the next.

And straight after taking them in to a semi!

[Tonge moor green jacket]

Colin spoke about it yesterday. It was only ever a brief role whilst they appointed a long term replacement. That's what the plan was going off his comments.

Close to taking the game into disrepute tbh.

I think the plan was for him to see the season out but results haven't been good enough

Maybe. 

Just going off what he said: he'd made it clear to them that they needed to get on with the appointment, and reading between the lines, perhaps he felt they hadn't moved along that road quickly enough.

Certainly sounded like his heart wasn't in it for anything other than a brief period.

Any idea why ?

They're in a solid play-off place, won yesterday, & unlike us have never looked top two material.

Because they're in a solid play-off place, and don't look top two material.

The majority aren’t calling for his head just the usual moron minority who cant see how well Collins has done with what he’s inherited. Obviously after missing out last year some were hoping for better this term with the league appearing weaker but I think the realists and certainly the ones I talk to over here, believe they’ve done really well to be where they are. We’ve even got some of our own wanting IE gone and at Derby wanting Warne out so I suppose it’s just one of those things to expect. 🙂

I think if you're going to be relatively poor in home games you're going to get fans on the back of the manager.  For all our frustrating away results, no Bolton fan can say they haven't had their money's worth at home.  Barnsley have lost at home to Posh, Oxford, Pompey, Blackpool, Exeter, Lincoln and Cambridge.  Drawn v Fleetwood, Charlton, Wigan, Cheltenham and shockingly failed to beat us from 2 up😀

And whilst our home wins have mostly been comfortable and deserved, they've had a number of late and/or lucky winners.  They just aren't a force at home and surely they won't win a 2 legged play off semi.
