Bolton with their impending relegation are looking to use our business model to get out of the 3rd tier and climb the leagues ......
http://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/spor...el_shows_there_is_a_way_back_from_third_tier/

If they look at our model very closely they'd also realise that we recruited the best players that were available to compliment our young academy players.
Players like Frazer Richardson, Radhi Jaidi, Ryan Dickson, Dean Hammond, Danny Butterfield, Lee Barnard, and several more, plus a certain Rickie Lambert, for example, were recruited with purpose. Not just some willy-nilly attempt at getting up the league. And they weren't cheap either. Our Academy crop were made whole by these good solid players. Some of whom went on to be greats in their own ways.
 
Sounds like a cheap plan B. I think they have a large amount of pain before the silver lining starts showing personally.

To a certain extent it reminds me of Lowe's model in the Championship when Jan Poortvliet was in town. It seemed we played the kids and barely anyone else. The poor things.

That actually hurt my head to remember that time.
 
BELGRADE (Reuters) - Dusan Tadic's Serbia career is over after the winger slammed coach Radovan Curcic for leaving him out of this month's friendlies with Poland and Estonia, said national team director Savo Milosevic.

:oops:

This was my favourite quote;

'I'd like to be more positive but a coach who has not been in charge of a top team aiming for titles does not have the potential, the authority or the knowledge to lead a national team to victories...but I wish him and the team all the best.'

Dummy spat by Dusan, but that's pretty poor to drop a senior player and not tell them
 
Poor old Victor. Missed connection due to French ATC, so had to sleep on airport seats in a Moroccan airport. Made it to Senegal and hopefully has got on his early morning connecting flight. Great preparation for his match. Try and get some rest, Vic, before the Leicester game.
