Admittedly this isn't a very interesting topic of conversation, but there is something about what's going on at Bolton that has me wondering what the **** they are doing.
When Gartside gave Sammy Lee the job he said he was going to be a better manager than Allardyce and that Bolton would start playing a better brand of football.
Yet after such acclaim, support and praise they sack him after 9 games. No doubt they got twitchy because of Bolton's poor start coupled with Sammy's lack of experience and that he has no track record as a manager.
I'm sure they are concerned that Bolton might go down.
So what do they do? Do they approach proven, successful managers? No - they go after Steve Bruce, Chris Coleman, Gary Megson, all of whom have been either relegated or sacked or both. Seems bizarre to me. If you're going after such sketchy managers, why not just give Sammy a fair crack of the whip?
