Dougie Freedman - New Manager

[boltonboris]

PPG comparison between Coyle and Dougie means feck all when the other teams in the league are consistently chalking up more points than we are. 4/5 of our regulars need feckin' off right away. Feck these bleep tests and cotton wool wraps. We need points and we need people to step up and improve us otherwise we'll continue our slide. I don't fancy sitting in a ground watching league 1 footballers for my £400

[boltonboris]

Over the last 10 games only two teams have taken fewer ppg than us and neither of them is below us...

So in half of Dougie's games we've shown the form of the 3rd worst team in the league?

That's fvck in worrying, considering how fantastic people think he is.

There's no sugar coating it and looking for positives. We're STILL not keeping enough clean sheets and now we're not scoring enough. I'm struggling to take any positives from our league form and I'm also struggling to see how other people are.

we'd probably score more if ngog and sordell and another forward played instead in a 451 .

its definately the scoring. the defence is 'near enough' for now.

ricketts2:homesickboogaloo cannot do it on his own

People have faith in Freedman because he talks a good game. They are attracted to buzzwords like "sports science" and things like that. However, despite talking a good game, the results aren't proof that his tactics are working. Certain people quote every press conference, reacting like he's a mini-Mourinho and when it goes wrong, they blindly refuse to criticised him. When we win, it's because Freedman is great and when we lose, it's because the players are useless.

That's the worrying thing. People keep quoting his 'ppg' over the course of his time in charge but the reality is that over the last ten of his 16 games in charge, we've taken less than a point per game.

[Wandering Willy]

He's .08 ppg better than Coyle.

Great that is.

Yeah, we banged in 10 today without Kevin Davies starting.

I did - as I pointed out to postcode - say it wasn't good enough.

Calm down.

I was agreeing with you.

Since you mention him, the buffoon brought Kevin Davies on when we needed a goal.

[Hoboh]

Never mind when super Duggie has had has long as Coyle, we''ll be reet!
The signs have been there for a while and dont rely on his journeymen signings to improve us

Game in hand against Peterborough. Squeaky bum time for Eddie Davies. Wonder if he's tempted to give Nigel Adkins a call?

Can't see him paying off Coyle....then Freedman.

Personally, don't think we'll get relegated..

I think you might have said this last season too?

I'm now officially worried.

Bring in the Yorkie AB the footy will be shite but we will be alright. That rhymes.

Yes, I can clearly see the similarities between Manchester United in 1989 and Bolton Wanderers in 2013.

I can. A manager making far reaching changes behind the scenes at a club, not getting immediate results and being berated for it by impatient short-sighted fans. Then said changes kick in and club goes on an amazing run of success.

Not saying this will happen to Bolton under Dougie but I can see what he's trying to do (unlike his predecessors since Big Sam) and I like his confidence and honesty. Let's give him a chance.

[bobo the clown]

Facts are we can rate his early results or not, we can 'understand' what he's up to, or not ... but he ain't going to get the boot. Garty has always been over-loyal, if anything. It would take some doing ... or things behind the scene.

Even if you are someone who never wanted him in, suck it up coz it ain't changing anytime soon.

'matching them for an hour' ....oh glory be.

[CrazyHorse]

DOUGIE Freedman is not entertaining the thought that Wanderers could slide into a relegation battle in the Championship.

That's the spirit Dougie. Bury your head in the sand.

better lock up this thread - Dougie doesn't care what any of us thinks!

The difference is that Fergie had a track record of success before he took the Utd job. He'd won league titles, domestic and European cups at Aberdeen. If you're seriously saying that Freedman's record equates to that, you're talking bollocks.
