it seems that we are getting o'neill as our new manager, rumours are rife that a deal has been done and the betting has been suspended with all but 2 bookies.

 

do you think this will mean that you lose sam to england?

  • Author
In a word, no.

 

 

whys that? who do you expect to get the england job?

Well, Sam proved on Weds that he is not tactically astute enough in Europe. We have conceeded in ALL of our 4 UEFA away games, Plovdiv and Guimaraes were inferior opposition.

 

I haven't got a Scooby Doo who will land the job, Alan Curbishly may be the safe option?

you could be right, i also think that the f.a may be afraid of sam speaking his mind instead of bending over for them?

 

you lot will be well chuffed if he stays! i reckon gartside is going to have to start flashing the cash though, or he may go for th enext so called 'big job' he is offered.

 

i would have loved him for us personally, if we didnt get o'neill

sams not a yes man so he wont get it

sams not a yes man so he wont get it

 

sven is hardly agreeable though is he

Mclarens a good bet is he still 8/1

I was chatting with Sams agent after the match in that Paddy bar (also Nobby's agent). He wasn't really giving much away. While I was grilling him, his body language suggested that Sam is going to stay put in the short term.

ITK for a change

Fernando Hierro will bthe next Bolton manager :-$

Not an issue on here. We had greater concern of Sam joining Newcastle but after it became clear he was not interested, it is obvious he is now happy to stay at Bolton.

There is no chance of Sam getting the England job due to numerous reasons; perceived style of play, speaks his mind, not affraid to ruffle feathers in high places, not won anything as a manager, not a quiet puppet that the FA can control etc etc

 

Your ex-Sowerness has more of a chance :D

i dont recall it being clear sam wasnt intersted?

 

no qoutes or anything? just your chairman saying the usual stuff??

 

if england had any sense, they would appoint him, he is the best man for the job in my opinion! but i agree, they wont have th eballs, in the same way they didnt have the balls with cloughy.

 

more fool them eh.

the ammount he has said he wanted the England job and he's said bugger all about wanting the toon job! so that shows he wsnt interested!

all i rememebr him saying is that he wouldnt egt involved in speculation, which is far from a refusal/turn down. i also think saying that you want th eengland job, is a different kettle of fish to admitting that you want to join another club!

 

its irrelivent anyway as we seem to be getting o'neill, who i would personally prefer. (thats not to say i wouldnt have been dam happy with big sam though!)
