Do we give Dougie? I am a big fan and I can't see us getting anyone better,but if there is no sign of his "plan"it's time to take a gamble on someone else.

 

10 games for me

Is there not a £6m or £8m cap on these "gifts"?

 

 

there is

 

i fear he may need to do that this year, tight fisted bastard that he is

Can we not just make him give us £8m?

To a) I'd say he's been better than Warbies were, or the various lunatics at Leeds United have been. But not as good as some on here paint him. He's no Steve Gibson or Jack Walker. How much of our success is tied to him and how much to Allardyce is arguable.

 

To b. we need to do something differently, starting with the manager, or we're heading back to the days we all thought we'd left behind. As I said, I would like to see a greater role for fans, whatever the ownership structure is. I wouldn't want us to become the plaything of some oligarch or sheikh. I get that it's complicated and none of us have all the answers...we should at least be asking the questions though.

This 'greater role for fans' you envisage.  I'm intrigued, tell us more..

The fans have a role.

Half of them are piss poor at it at present, when the club needs it most

I thought We'd set up something like that?

 

The upshot being their great idea of switching the TV's off after half-time, or so I was told!

thats what the new rules are trying to address, and the seasion ticket thing is just bullshit, now many at that price 1, 10 or 20000 without that information the point is mute, whats Boltons cheapest season ticket I bet its not far off Bayern Munich but then again thats for a kid

Everyone knows that in Germany a season ticket is EUR 10.00 and that includes a free stein and rollover bratwurst at every game.

How many managers have we hounded out?

 

I can think of only Megson. We're hardly serial hounder outerers.

I think him leading us to 19th in league helped his position become unattainable.

how about if you include the fee we got for anelka

Another classic name from the Facebook comments... Dougie Fuckman!

Nothing beats Druggie Greedman for me, genius!

I was sent a link to someone today who referred to Megson as Megatron! beat that!

how about if we stick to nett spend - otherwise i'll not give him the credit for eidur and jensen 

 

its often said allardyce wasn't backed

 

its utter bollocks

 

he was backed more than any manager in our history

 

and rightly so

How many managers have we hounded out?

....and it took till his 3rd season in charge to get rid of him!

 

Our hounders are shit.

 

They should do hounding out courses at Bolton Uni.

With the first lesson being how to spell the words you are painting on your bedsheet correctly.

A greater role for the fans????? that is a scarey thought

 

It is seen as an embarrassment to set up any kind of support (similar to palace) let alone get them involved in anything else. 

 

why not try and concentrate on backing the team and getting the "shit american stuff" going. it would generate atmosphere and more of a feel good factor.

 

whats going on at the moment is shit and i have no idea how it could change but as a group we seem to prefer to moan than support.

FFS tickets in Germany are similar to them in the UK bar about 10% of tickets (if that) which are cheap

The atmosphere was bouncing under the stand on Saturday,folk leaping about all over the shop singing ad spraying beer about.

 

Went upstairs for second half and you could hear a pin drop.

Judging by some of the top boys who can show em a thing or two i reckon the orange warriors would soon be running scared

Our biggest single loss was in the last accounts c£50m this occurred because we lost the huge tv revenue but still had premiership wages, again you could question whether wages should have drastic relegation clauses in but I am sure if this meant we weren't signing good enough players in the prem due to the clause you would also again be complaining.

Actually, Eddie, I think it came from a write down of overstated value of players contracts
