    yes he did but that was (in my opinion) because he said openly he wanted to try and improve the playing style of the team and move away from the SKD route 1 style (that we are still using to this day)

  • I'd say that we were far from "certain relegation" despite the Sammy Lee era; we still had a cohesiveness within the squad and the results under Lee were not reflective of our abilities. It was an ach

  • Can I be first to say.   I'd take him. He knows the league, plays attractive football and in my opinion is just as good as Pardew.   Shite lazy journalism though.

and they will be again.....one day......relatively speaking

 

Relatively speaking is how Coyle holds staff meetings.

chairman is shit

manager is shit

staff are shit

players are shit

fans are shit

football is shit

Give Coyle the job ............ 2 birds, 1 stone.

Sounds like Chorlton from Chorlton and The Wheelies!

Sorry but what the fuck??

 

We were dropping like a stone under that cunt and he was ripping the place apart. Wed have been relegated under him IMO and the players had no confidence whatsoever

 

He regularly brought our club into disrepute; that's the lowest of the low

 

Just because Coyle doesn't know his arse from his elbow, that doesn't make Megson an excellent Manager all of a sudden. Well maybe he is; I mean, he's picked up a top level job since leaving us hasn't he?.....oh wait.....

Oh yeah sorry, no it's the fans' fault isn't it?!

 

well i never actually said he was an excellent manager, i just said he did very well in his first part season and then again the season after, then he tried to get rid of SKD and it went to rat shit. Is that not what happened? Did he not do very well saving us from certain relegation and then finishing mid table?

Megson was an arse, who was well on the way to sending us down, with a expensively (in Bolton terms) assembled squad, with a huge chip on his shoulder about everything Bolton. He was still whinging when he was getting paid for doing Fook all. I find it hard to take any positives from his time here.

cant believe were going here again but anyway....

 

the only reason had a chip on his shoulder was because (a lot of) the fans where on his back from day one.

 

and that is a fuckin fact with capital F

I'd say that we were far from "certain relegation" despite the Sammy Lee era; we still had a cohesiveness within the squad and the results under Lee were not reflective of our abilities. It was an achievement to keep us up, but I'd say we'd have done it under Lee or anyone else for that matter. Post that season when it was "his team" we were wank and the whole club had an air of disillusionment

 

Homo, you're re-writing history; initially it was only a very small minority that were on his back; this was then enhanced as it would be under any Manager by his performance, manner and demeanor. It may be chicken and egg, but that's slightly irrelevant - he had the opportunity to change that but some of his behaviour was disgusting. Irrelevant of how he is treated, he had a job to do and part of that is getting the backing of the support as it enhances the club's chances of success on and off the pitch -like it or not. And he failed dismally

 

A success? No, a catalyst and pre-cursor for the impending disaster that the Coyle regime has been. And for the record I'm not blaming Megson for OC's woes, but has he contributed? Absolutely

 

Ginger cunt

 

Why hasn't he gotten a decent job since? Why didn't he last at Sheff Weds?

One more time...........i never said he was an excellent manager.

Either the Manager is to blame or he`s not, you can`t have it both ways.

You can`t say anybody would have kept us up when Megson did it and then Coyles a cunt and its all his fault when is going badly.

 

I don`t know why Megson was sacked from Sheff Wed but it wasn`t because they were playing badly, they were 3rd in the league at the time.

Maybe it was because hes a cunt, maybe he fell out over money? I don`t know and neither do you

Tue Feb 7 FAC 4 replay Blackpool Home Lost 0-3

It was about results.Megson was sacked after losing 4 matches out of 5.They didn't lose another match after sacking Megson.

so he was sacked for losing 2 away games and a home game whilst 3rd in the league. thanks for clearing that up!

Did they go up without him? Yes they did. I'd say that justified Mandaric's decision to give him the boot.

 

Any manager who refers to his team's fans as "that lot" doesn't deserve to be the manager of that club.

 

Of course, we've since been relegated since Gartside got shut of him, but we'd have been relegated 12 months before that if he'd stayed.

 

He's an utter cunt.

if megson got us relegated

 

did he get sheff wed promoted?

The Manager always has responsibility; but they don't always take entire credit or stick do they?

 

With both Megson and Coyle IMO they've not made the most of the situation they were in:

 

We were relegated because of Coyle, not despite him - of that I'm convinced.

 

Homo, I never said Megson got us relegated but everything that's ever happened before OC contributed in some way - the more recent, the more effect it has

 

Just as he contributed towards Sheff Weds' promotion; however, that was in Mandaric's eyes despite Megson not because of him; hence him sacking him as they were not matching his expectations. 3rd in the league wasn't good enough. Just like it wouldn't be for Citeh and Mancini for example.

 

If you think the future was bright at BWFC under Megson's helm then you are in cloud cuckoo land

if megson got us relegated

 

did he get sheff wed promoted?

 

Not at all. Megson failed to get them promoted the previous season and was sacked because there was a chance he'd fail again.Mandaric hadn't bought Sheffield Wednesday and spent big at that level to stay in the 3rd tier.

who did a better job, megson or coyle?

Megson keeps getting sacked so the club owners must think Coyle

Megson is a cunt.

 

But he is better than Coyle.

 

Coyle is just to nice to sack.

who did a better job, megson or coyle?

Fuck knows

 

Coyle has been better for brand BWFC to a certain extent, but of course he relegated us. Megson would have.

 

Don't know how relevant it is to anything though?

 

What is relevant is that neither were/are a success

you cant say megson can you.

 

oh dear.

 

 

 

i agree, they were/are both shocking

you cant say megson can you.

 

oh dear.

 

 

 

i agree, they were/are both shocking

No, because as far as I'm concerned he set us back light years

 

As has OC

 

Get it now??

 

Oh dear

you cant say megson can you.

 

oh dear.

 

 

 

i agree, they were/are both shocking

So why are you defending megson to the hilt if he's shocking? Megson spent more than any Bwfc manager probably will in our life time, took us absolutely no where leaving the club up Shit street and suffering as a club still today.
