just look at the stadium yesterday

 

2nd highest gate in the division yesterday, not bad considering who we were playing.

 

I'd have him back in a shot. Sam took me to places I'd never thought i'd watch BWFC and mostly gave us the results to match too. He left because we didn't match his ambition, something that most people do at some point in the career in the real world. Bolton legend as far as I'm concerned.

did he just say we could of signed samuel eto!!!!

Big sam exclusive: saw him shopping a couple of weeks ago. I said " any chance of coming back and helping us out?"

He replied " it will take more than me to get you out of that mess!"

he couldnt persuade gartide though, 8 million euros

Eto fuck me mental - Sam is an extremely talented manager always has been always will be he's just got "it"

samuel fucking eto!!

 

nice one garty

Jules_darby -you must be spending an unhealthy amount of time on here to be able to know that!

It's fucking easy to bang on about folk we COULD have signed that have gone on to be ace

 

For every Eto there's 10 Sam would've fancied that will have gone on to be wank

 

To be fair to gartside he running a business

 

We COULD sign Ronaldo tomorrow

 

If we had a billion pound budget

 

It's all pretty irrelevant

 

I'm going off Garty big time, but he has to be diligent

 

Otherwise we'd be like Leeds and relegation would've triggered further relegation

 

Just be glad that our problem is only OC and his cronies; not having had to sell our entire squad....because of the way we are ran

 

And yes I know we are massively in debt, but we are about as balanced as we can be

 

Il give you another big sam exclusive

 

We could have signed Alan Smith for 6 million but Garty wouldnt let us.

So, if Garty had pulled his finger out we could have had a forward line of Drogba, E'to & Smith

 

Gartslime out, sack the board!

Sam was and is a very good manager end of

So that's Vidic, Eto'o and Drogba he has claimed. Any more?

this has just fuckin wound me up even more

Probably many more which is why it's beyond me why he wasn't backed and is why we are now mid table in the league we are with a clueless clown in charge.

You really believe every word? In hindsight its easy to say those moves would have paid off but it could have meant we have spiralled into massive debt, we only would have gone on to sell those players for peanuts anyway like we always do.

Pretty much my take on it.

He signed Oscar Perez. Bet he didn't bring that up on telly did he?

What pride!!! Are you proud of what we are seeing.

I think players have to be a bit scared of their manager, no ones scared of O.C.

 

Played under Sam Allardye when he was youth team coach at PNE, I was invited in for training & games, the kids were shitting themselves

telling me not to cheat in training drills to gain that extra yard, he ran a tight ship would dish the bollockings but his door was always open for

a friendly chat, without doubt the best manager I've trained or played for.

 

Oh yes what happened to Howard Kendal in his first & second time in charge of Everton?

He got pissed?

If you heard what he said, we could have signed Eto for 8 million euros and most likely sold him at a profit.

 

History now though and look getting rid has worked as our debt is gone and we are still in the big league !

We'll never know if Sam could have taken us further

 

 

We are unlikely to know whether he can save us again

Don't forget Allardyce is a massive self publicist and an Ego maniac he still thinks he should be England or Man United manager and his self promotion is an attempt to big himself up, I would take a lot of what he says with a massive pinch of salt.

I bet Fat Sam had a new signing he wanted to make every fucking day.

 

Samuel Eto'o would have been a young lad surely, had he come here he may never have developed into the player he did. He wasn't that physical was he? Chasing long balls and throw-ins.

I will forever be grateful for what Sam did for Bolton. I never dreamed we would be as good as we were under Sam and can't see us being that good again.Anyone who could get Bolton into 6th place with a record signing of £4 million as Sam did will understandably think very highly of themself.Without him it is possible we would now be into a 15th year outside the PL because we were in worse shape than we are now when Sam arrived.
