""Dave Dean
Sports Rehabilitator
Dave Dean is part of the Wanderers' medical team and his role represents quite a career change, as he had previously spent 17 years of his life working in a bank.

Despite coming from a completely different industry, Dean does have sporting connections, playing rugby and volleyball and at one point he was the GB women's volleyball coach.

He was made redundant from his job at the bank which prompted him to go back to college and studied sports therapy at Thameside College for two years before going on to study in more depth at Salford University.

Part of the course at Salford included a two month work placement the Reebok and after qualifying he was offered a job in the medical department in 2008.

Dean’s job involves providing a wide range of massage routines to ensure that everyone at the club remains in peak physical condition.

The massages are not just for players who have picked up a niggle. On the eve of any away matches for example, Dean will travel with the squad and offer massages to players that helps them sleep, which is all part of the team’s preparation.

He also has to make sure all the stock of medical equipment we may need is readily available, help set up the treatment room and perform any last minute massages that are needed.""

Gotta wonder why he ever left the world of arse slapping and tight buttocks.

Im now understanding Burnleys utter hatred of Coyle ok he moved but he took everyone from the club, bar the tea lady.

Were's the head coach of the Ping Pong department? CV attached

Neither am I confident with putting faith in an Arsenal youth in such an important season. It remains to be seen what Ngog can manage at this level but I'm not holding out much hope. Though Klasnic has often been chastised by some sections of Bolton fans - without good reason imo - he at least was a cracking finisher who would score a bagful at this level. Whether he would have signed a new contract or not is speculation but there wasn't even an offer laid on the table - and apparently wouldn't have been had we stayed up.

For the last weeks I've been convinced that the squad is good enough to go up but the manager isn't capable of taking it up. Now I'm even starting to worry that the squad isn't good enough, owing to such abject performances. In this division you have to go on a run at some point, amass a load of points within a stretch of games. We just don't look capable of doing that. Conceding too many and wasting too many at the other end. I do still believe the squad is good enough but that the manager is taking them to the dogs. Out of all this, I am still worried about our striker's getting the goals needed.
I'd have given one of my kidneys to keep Klasnic around... He might not have been the hardest worker at times, but he could finish (if you don't believe me, ask one of those 17 year old girls...).

I'm sure he could have done some serious damage in this league. The fact that he was just sort of let go boggles my mind. Perhaps he wanted nothing more to do with the club, but I'm sure we could have cut something out with wages, even if it meant Owen couldn't buy a bunch of mediocre shit.

That said, we can go up, but not with Coyle in charge. A f*cking cactus in charge would probably do a better job...
Just read that one line whilst in office at work nearly died in laughter xD everyone staring at me although in fairness he was a good finisher klasnic lol

It's certainly a long way from Allardyce's team of hand picked expert individuals.

Even Megson didn't bring in his cronies entirely, and pissed Wolves off by poaching their youth team coach.
It feels a bit like Coyles team are just people he met down the pub whilst he was at Burnley....

I was intrigued to read that the Head of Performance Analysis has never played the game at a professional level. Mind you, his surname is Prestidge which suggests he's perfect for the pressure cooker atmosphere of the Championship.

well, Barclay's loss was Bolton's loss also, quite obviously !!!

A lot is explained by that cv.

That's basically an analyst who takes the prozone data and converts it into something useful. So not sure they need to have played football, and in all likelihood wouldn't be much use if they had.

Don't think the guy Allaryce used had a career in football either.

His performance director Mike Forde who had a more senior role overseeing performance hadn't either as far as I know!

That staff profile page is depressing. "X person joined Bolton in January 2010". We have systematically dismantled our edge in our last few years it seems.

And is that Head Of Performance Analysis the guy nicknamed by Allardyce as "fingers" because of his wizardry at a keyboard? :).

How has Gartside allowed all this to go on. No hand picked experts, no overseas experience, just a load of Coyle's cronies so he cn remain comfortable, not be challenged and avoid criticism. How has Gartside allowed us to get into this state after the leading edge resime of BSA

Because Gartside rightly, appoints the manager and leaves them to decide on footballing matters.

Its up to the manager who they want in, and thats how it should be.

Gartside is not an expert in football, and does not pretend to be.

His role on that side is limited to picking the manager, then letting them get on with it.

While I too despair at the backroom staff – and more pertinently the team performances they're designed to maximise - I have a question, or rather a nest of questions.

When we sacked Megson, how many of the backroom staff went with him (either resigned or sacked)? And how many went once caretakers Chris Evans and Steve Wigley were pushed aside for Coyle?

As BWFCi says, managers should be allowed to pick their own backroom team. I'm just wondering how many holes Coyle had to fill, and how many 'duplicates' were railroaded in – eg Cliff Roberts for Colin Harvey, arguably Phil Hughes for Fred Barber, etc...
