I still think Browny would come to Bolton at the drop of a hat, the sooner the better so long as we can get the club moving with a long term strategy.

Now, this may go against the grain, and I may be on my own, but what has Pihil Brown done thus far that makes anybody think he would be a good manager for Bolton Wanderers?

He still lives here so I'm thinking he still has ambition to come back.

Don't forget our first season back up : coming back from 0-1 to draw 1-1 with 10 men in late September (to go back to the top of the Prem) ....... at Highbury.

And where were we come April ? Beating Ipswich 4-1 to narrowly escape relegation.

Long way to go for Hull & Stoke & WBA.

Correct, and at least 2 of those will end up in the bottom 3 places (I'm not saying that we won't as well)

Whether or not the following players are sufficiently good, most of them are in line with a long term strategy

 

Cahill

Taylor

Muamba

Steinsson

Elmander

 

Possibly, even Riga

 

Because of injuries (hopefully) they have only had a game or 2 together, they ought to be given a chance, as should Megson.

Well done Hull.

 

If we are gutted because one team out of 20 has got a result, it's a very sad state of affairs.

 

We need to look at ourselves, not others in September

As I said back in early August in response to a lot of people here who were patronising the Stoke fan, I am not too sure about that. Right now imo these 3 look to have more quality and togetherness than bwfc, fulham, boro, newcastle. Hull have made a better start than we did in 2001 6 games in.

 

But it is a 38 game season so things can change, but I cannot see any of those 3 being marooned without a chance come the last game which is worrying.

nah

 

don't accept that for a minute

 

don't forget his spell at derby

 

fair play to brown

 

but he has never been in a position to be our manager

 

so not sure how gartside has f?cked up

don't forget his PASSION and LOVE for our club and team and his determination to prove all his critics wrong.For me that would of been a prize catch

Brown managed Bolton for 5 games before Sam came think we won them all, he worked with allardyce for 8 years, knew the club knew the players, proved he was a decent coach, he is good at man management, knows how to keep the spirits up in the dressing room, tries to play a nice mixture of on the deck and long football, would have walked over broken glass for the Bolton job, need I go on, in his place we have megson, who to me has 2 redeeming feature 1 he is honest 2 he is reasonable at organising a team, but lacks charisma sparkle and loves to play with 3 defensive midfielders even at home against west brom, come in megson your time is up.

 

and?

 

all that may well be true

 

but

 

when megson was appointed, and i'm not saying it was the right appointment, brown had a failed spell at derby, before going back to hull as a number 2 and saved them from the drop

 

we needed someone with a bit more experience which megson had

 

maybe one day brown will manage us, but this time last year was not brown's time

 

brown has something to prove, at the minute he's doing it, but this time last year, he'd not achieved half as much as he has now

don't forget his PASSION and LOVE for our club and team and his determination to prove all his critics wrong.For me that would of been a prize catch

and i forgot gartside wanted a yes man .phil is not a yes man he is his own person from what i have seen. "bsa "maybe he was bent with his signings or not but as a club WE ALL BENEFITTED FROM THOSE SIGNINGS.and to add insult to injury look at the cash gartside has made avaliable to the last two cabbages.THE WHOLE SITUATION STINKS

The fact that Megson has fallen out with people at just about every club he's ever been at might not be one of his redeeming features, but it definately shows he's not a yes man.

 

Why everyones talking about Brown as if they've found a way to clone Brian Clough and he's it, is beyond me. Hull are one point ahead of what we were when we first came up (and we hadn't been dicked by an average side), and if it weren't for a journeyman German centre forward we'd have gone down that season aswell.

 

It won't last. And at no point has it ever been a viable option for us to have him as our manager.
