July 13, 200916 yr duno when it came out but its in waterstones in hardback so guess its pretty new anyway...flicked through the bolton bit sadly, its shite no background to the dual manager bit and apparently when blake signed he scored a few in that first season i thought his first goal for us was in division 2 but by the by maybe a couple of goals passed me by anyway, biggest bugbear, our striker was john mcginley surely thats basics?

It has been out for a while and is littered with spelling errors and also factual errors, the best part of the book is where Todd gives his 10 most memorable matches as a manager and 3 of them are with Bolton, not bad considering.
July 13, 200916 yr A few years back I bumped into Colin Todd in Bolton town centre. Had a good chat with him and he was pretty open about everything. To some extent it felt like an interwiew. One thing that sticks in my mind was a comment Gartside said to him in the early years. "As long as I'm in charge, no Bolton player will ever be paid over 10 grand a week in wages!" How times have changed eh ?

Someone'll correct me if wrong ...... but I think his first goal came at Spurs in December when we came back from 0-2 for the point that took us to a magical 10 points. Think he got one more that season. Nope .... shocking memory. Old age and all that. That was his debut. Only one goal that season, I think; at Boro in February. Edited July 14, 200916 yr by Rembrandt
