Title: Allardyce Post by: red macca on Thursday, July 13, 2006, 22:50:34 Quote from: "dave_m_russell" Over-rated long ball merchant i used to think that myself dave.until last years opta stats proved that they were in the top 4 for having the most successful pass rates .i agree with you for once though i dont think its pretty but i suppose its effective.he has done a good job at bolton in all honestyTitle: Allardyce Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, July 13, 2006, 22:54:29 They kill a game off good and proper, but given the resources it's pretty damn good. Given more playing talent he wouldn't necessarily play like that I think
Title: Allardyce Post by: oxford_fan on Thursday, July 13, 2006, 23:32:38 definitely si, he can only work with what he's got and considering bolton's limited budget they play some decent stuff. it wasn't too long ago they were a div1 side.
£400k for hamann too! http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/b/bolton_wanderers/5177222.stm Title: Allardyce Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Friday, July 14, 2006, 18:41:09 Allardyce is a top manager, to do as well as he's done consistently at a club as small as Bolton is very impressive. I don't even think the football they play is particularly unattractive compared to most premiership sides, they're very physical but it works well for them. Shame he's not the new England manager.
