Just glanced at the championship table and noticed Bolton in the relegation zone. Then found out that they were relegated to league 1 a few years back.
Started thinking about some of the players they used to have, and put together this team which is all players they signed within an 8 year time span (not sure about the GK)
I might be wrong but I think they were all Sam Allardyce signings. He’s not a glamouros manager, Bolton have never been a glamorous club and the capacity at the stadium is less than 30,000. Their best achievement in that time was a league cup final, which they lost.
So just why did some of those players join Bolton? Who was the middle man getting some of those transfers done? And given Allardyce previous for what we will call “dodgy dealings” is there a chance something similarly dodgy was ocurring here?
Any input would be great.
