Some Bolton thoughts: http://www.boltonbanter.com/forum/view_topic.php?id=9928&forum_id=2

Id stick a tenner on Gary Speed to get the Bolton job like.

Always seems highly rated and I think a  team like Bolton would be better taking a risk with someone like Speed who would have a chance of being really good, rather that going for some established mediocre manager, which is probably all they could attract.

Cant see Anelka sticking around for long either.

TBH.

 

Maybe Fulham? What's the "surely he's off to Citeh" comments based on?

 

And aye, i'd bet a decent amount Gary Speed got offered it.

[Dave]

It'd be nice if Speed came here with Allardyce, as a coach.

Yep, he is one "jobs for the boys" signing I wouldn't mind taking a risk on.

Surely Pearce is a dead man walking - their fans have had enough, he's clearly not got a clue what is going on.

 

He's probably jacked it in now, knowing that the comments about leaving at the end of the season have made it impossible for him to carry on. It may also be an attempt to avoid situations where he's going to be asked about Pearce's job whilst Pearce is still there.

 

The only confusing thing is the state of the Citeh takeover, whcih is obviously still in very early days. If he's staked it all on Ranson winning, then he's in a tricky situation. Although it could be like our takeover when all interested parties agreed they wanted the same man for the job, maybe.

 

I dunno, at least it makes the end of season more interesting.

[Baggio]

Coleman to Bolton IMO.

[Yorkie]

Sam Allardyce

Sammy Lee

Glenn Roeder

Gary Speed

 

... is a decent coaching set-up. I've said this before and i'll say it again, because i stand by it - Roeder's not a very good manager but i reckon he'd be a very good coach. Because i think he's good on a one-to-one basis. It's the crucial matchday decisions where he falls down - and that's the manager's job. On the training ground however, i bet he'd be a valuable member of the staff.

[Dave]

Would Roeder accept what would effectively be constructive dismissal?

[SEMTEX]

No. Its our official manager disease. Managers must pretend for the good of the club that they refuse to resign and plough on with their regime. Money grabbing cunts.

[S.S.R.]

Didn't Gullit do the decent thing and walk away without claiming a penny?

[danny_nufc]

Coleman to Bolton IMO.

 

He was a guest on football focus and he said he wasn't interested.

[brummie]

Coleman to Bolton IMO.

 

I agree.

[Guest Knightrider]

I don't think Roeder's job is safe at all, never has been, never will be because he is nothing more than an interim appointment, that's why he only got 2 years and why, if rumours are true, the club and he have the option to review things after 12 months.

Review... REVIEW GOD DAMNIT.

He didn't, he laughed it off when he was put on the spot.

[Guest b0f]

www.allardyceforthetoon.com anyone?

 

What is Roeders contract situation was he signed on one year or two? Can't see him being cast aside,

although i wouldn't mind.

[Guest WalkervilleMag]

well if the papers are right that we are to bring players in as soon as the transfer window opens,  that does not sound like Glen will be sacked.   

What about Sidwell already signed apparently 

[stozo]

Firstly I don't want it to happen, secondly I don't think Fat Fred will be too keen to sack Roeder and thirdly I don't think he has the money to sack Roeder and his staff, bring in Allardyce and his staff and then fund this summer's purchases.

[Guest Knightrider]

Every Toon manager since KK have been sacked not long after spending good money, means nowt at Newcastle and even then, there is good reason to believe at United, the manager doesn't get much of a say as to who comes in or who gets sold anyway.

Boom! You'll be in trouble for that!
