Communist- Never heard of him, Big Sharps is actually a good poster so i sence this guy is a wum. Natasha- i wouldnt piss on her if she was on fire.
If it is any consolation, I don't think that you are a wind up merchant.

I think comparing Commie to Natasha and Nutty is a tad unfair!

I really think this should be moved to the politics thread, as its cast-iron proof that stupid initiatives like care in the community don't work. Or do. I s'pose its keeping him off the streets. Hmmm.

You're asking us to look at figures quoted in the Sun and calling them facts?

If you can remember rightly, you might have remembered correctly.

If you can show any sort of correlation between the Sun and Burnden Leisure's actual (factual?) accounts then please lets hear it.

Otherwise stick to the tits on P3? you'll be in good company.

You my friend are a complete nice person! We can say that about everything, you know all them loan signings Big Sam did! have you included all the embarassing Bungs what made our club a laughing stock, you know them quotes you keep popping up with now and again from articles, can i get a voice recording from the actual person and a signature saying its him.

If its not the true figures why are clubs not sueing the Sun?

Let me get this right. Just to be sure.

How many bungs or otherwise shady dealings were Allardyce or Bolton found guilty of, either in a Court or by breach of FA or Prem League rules?

There's a different set of spending figures here.

http://www.transferleague.co.uk/

They're different than the Sun so why's no-one suing them? You may also notice that West Brom are quite high up in that table - someone there spent a shitload and couldn't even keep them in the division, because they're actually a shit manager. I'd be surprised if West Ham and Wigan weren't below us too. Although West Ham spend big, they've made some huge sales too. As have Wigan.

One thing you will notice, is that if you take off Megson's spending from Bolton's total, then Allardyce managing 4 top 8 finishes was pretty impressive on sod all transfer money. And before you bleat on any further, player wages went up whilst Megson was in charge (even as a proportion of Revenue)

I'm unsure of what point(s) you're actually trying to make in respect of Megson. Over the last couple of weeks, you've asked me to

a) Compare Megson's record of wins, to the last half of the season under Allardyce and been pointed to the fact that Megson never managed a better record in his last 18 games in any season.

b) Asked me to list the ages of the players we have, to find that whilst Megson's most regular 11 were half a year younger on average than Allardyce's, the squad he left was actually half a year older on average.

c) Blathered on generally about the same three signings - Cahill, Muamba and Lee, who I hope, should we sell them, we make a healthy profit on. However, Elmander, Cahill and Muamba cost more than Allardyce spent in his whole fecking time with the Club and we're already £2m down on Shittu. If you look at the total profit from players that played under Allardyce, it's about £10m. That doesn't take into account people like Davo, Stelios, Campo, Youri, Speedo, etc. that we got a good few years service out of, finishing in the top half of the division that cost us nowt.

So in summation, Allardyce made a profit and got us decent league placements (way above our spending power). Megson has this array of multi-million pound talent and couldn't get us higher than 14th - and left us in 18th. All points to being a bit shit to me.

I might be a complete tw*t, but at least tw*ts are useful, which is rather more than I can say for the complete crap you talk most of the time.

If they're not Megson - Nutty doesn't like them!

Are you his son? As you mentioned 'getting your dad' on a few of us in the past :D

As for the bungs........BSA and twitchy Redknapp got 'done' on the BBC for it. And now both are being talked of as potential England managers when Fabio does the decent thing (and leaves, to build a house out of his earnings), so I'd argue that most people don't care about it.
