Megson Watch

[thebish]

Now see this raises a question I have always asked.

Do you consider your team to have been formed in 1874 or 1877?

1874 - cos that makes us older than Blackburn!

Christchurch FC was formed in 1874 and became Bolton Wanderers in 1877.

I have seen merchandise over the years with BOTH dates stated as the est. date.

Do Manchester United count their days as Newton Heath? Or do Arsenal include their Woolwich days?

Whaddya reckon?

Ask bobo, he'll remember

And we count our woolwich years!

[Hoboh]

We are by far the oldest, there have been Wanderers since Adam and that Eve chick got the boot out the garden party

[The Axman]

I thought Bolton had won the FA Cup 5 times between 1872-1878

IIRC you had a relative lived there in dim and distant days? You should be a gooner!

Another one for the "You couldn't make it up" thread.

I'm sure that I can hear the sound of exploding Wolves fans - and I'm 50 miles from Wolverhampton!

[Hoboh]

So thats one relegation place confirmed!! Please Gary take the post! I'm booking my coach ticket tomorrow if you do!!

[thebish]

Just in case it happens, and just for the record...

BWFCi - do you think Megson would keep Wolves up?

[CrazyHorse]

If he gets the job, and if it's before we play them, it's nailed on for them to rip us to smithereens.

aye - true dat!

Wolves have denied it, though...

I should bloody hope so. Ex-Baggie & still has a few fans there, ex-Stoke too.

Nailed on for 10 games of sheer abuse if he took that. It would make his time with us seem like a love-in.

[Wandering Willy]

It's ruse by the board I reckon.

Fans didn't want Bruce - board still do.

Therefore tell fans they getting Megson = Bruce welcomed with open arms.

[Lord Kangana]

He's such a c*nt that he'd take it just for the chance to play us.

They f*cking deserve each other anall.

just for the record yes,not only that the warped fecker would thrive on the hatred he'd receive should he turn up there.

Megson, who has also managed Norwich, Stoke, Nottingham Forest and Leicester, is also ready to run a potential gauntlet of fan abuse to resume a largely successful career



Where did his largely successful career happen? I guess it must be West Brom, who don't even get a mention.

He's got a thicker skin than Sepp fecking Blatter.

That said, I have a bad karmic feeling about this...

Don't worry he's shite he'll lose then blame us feck him!

[ImposterSCFC]

All I have to say on this.

To be fair to Megson he guided us to our the highest finish in our history at County, complete with a magnificent victory of citeh and wins at Wolves and the Reebok.

Football may have turned a bit negative and dull - but he did do that for us.

That said I'm convinced had we been able to keep the 96-97 promotion/cup run team together that we'd have been knocking on the door of the Premiership the following year.
