Fantastic post. It's precisely what I've been saying for weeks but my credibility on here is non existent because I was too harsh on Weitering and our slow intercept markers. Clearly I was wrong... oh wait. I was right.

But I should change tact, use more "green shoots" references and follow the club blindly without an opinion.

We are in big strife with where the game has evolved. We have no speed or aggression. That's the game now. Adjust or wither and perish.
Feeling a bit unloved?

Maybe your credibility is non-existent because this is your attitude to other people's optimism or patience. They're just as entitled to that as you are to your views. I guess whoever gets upset about it first is the worst off though...

Straight from the source - Bolton VERY miffed when made to wear a navy blue polo on team photo day. Wanted white to standout.

So he wanted to be the only one in white or all the coaching staff/players?
Wanted to be the only one wearing white. I haven't seen the team photos but I'm assuming the coach still sits smack-bang in the middle?

I've heard he's not well-liked by the group, coming from a current player, but take that with a grain of salt.

Don't you just love how all these rumours of disharmony seem to emerge when the team is performing poorly?

He wanted to wear white? I don't for a second believe this.

I think Bolton deserves a full 5 years before they even think of making a move - long, patient rebuild. Opposite of what they would have done in the past.
Totally agree. I've been following the Philadelphia 76ers re-build called the Process starting with a new coach. Today after 4 years they made the playoffs winning a record 15 in a row to get there, are favourites to get to the semi-final, have two of the most exciting players in the NBA (Simmons and Embiid) and have a stack of salary cap space and draft picks.

That's the model were following, there's no certainty it works here, but they will leave no stone unturned in trying to get there.

Hopefully “The King” makes his way there to top them off
