It will have to be a big veil.

Good.

We've had all these supposedly top coaches do f**k all. About time someone like Big Sam was given a go. If he can get Bolton into Europe, he's got a chance!

Make sure you get the pronunciation right

it is 'all-er-dee-che'

not 'aller dice'

He has one ability, to save teams from relegation, not sure how that works at international level, its all gonna be down to how the media treat him, he will live and die on the back pages like every other England manager

Getting Bolton to the Europa League was hardly a relegation battle.

He's a very good coach; I'd rather have had him take over from Fergie than DFM.

And several consecutive top-six finishes in EPL. Happy BWFC days, now we're in the shiit-can again......

We've had these sorts of managers before though - Graham Taylor, Howard Wilkinson , Steve McLaren....

& Look where that got us.

I'd have liked to have seen Glen Hoddle given another chance. He should never have been sacked in '98 & it was only that Blair sticking his oar in that got him the sack.

I thought it was his assertion that disabled people were disabled because they'd been bad people in a previous life. Or did I imagine that?
