Think the official line was the club wanted to go in a different direction or something?

It was Tower FM over the tannoy on Friday.

From the Bolton Nuts forum -

Tweets from Tunnster, the Administrator of our fellow site - Reebok Roar (Facebook) - if you've not already joined them please do so - and he's also obviously a valued member of Nuts.

First question, spearing? Waiting for value to come down. But its a poss.

Dawson, would love him back but...no money springs to mind.

Moritz deal down to money again.

Clubs future comes first.

Club captain will be zat knight. - Zat isnt aware of that yet.

Df says leave the past there, impression he wants the club to move on, leave big sam there. Thank you.

Holden. Df likes him. New contract has been signed. Was happy for him to go play for usa. Having scan at 9 uk time.

Standing areas still not on the agenda.

Difficult to find a good combo of strikers these days. Df keen on ngog, sounds like his 1st choice striker. (needs to be fit tho).

Df admits mistake with team selection against blackpool. Should have played 2 up front.

Df drawn to wanderers by the 'project', long term goals, values, vision.

High opinion of vela, giving the kids a chance.

Palace success took time, diff circs at bw, some players not suited to where he wants to go, or suited to the championship.

Wants to bring a proper structure to bring youngsters through. Too many at this club have vanished.

3-4 young players in dev squad df thinks can have a role to play this season.

Eager to get the club out of the div. But wants value for money. Not prepd to spend silly cash.

When df joined, fans were unhappy, connection lost between fans and club. Trying to get the fans back on board, appreciates boos stopped.

On Rhodes, old story/link from palace days. Not for money quoted.

Chelsea loan is available, but no players he wants at the moment. Would rather look to dev squad.

Mavies, given all clr to move on with his rehab and training. Window to rtn aug-dec, most likely end of nov earlt dec. Wont be rushed tho.

Nixon brought up. Df says cant stop rumours, but read between the lines with deals being touted. I.e a lot of its to sell papers.

Smoke bombs brought up, players focus on game. But can make focus drift. Says posh result showed how fans can help the team.


Meeting still on going.

DF says he is a role model off field for the younger players and has 4-5 leaders on the pitch. Assume he means he can get the dressing room together and shows the youth how to go about training.

The collective moan when Zat (Zak) Knight was announced as captain by Dougie was hilarious.

Well, he said ZK wasn't aware of it yet ... he has time to change his mind and no-one will know !!
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.
