Its also a different game to the one it was back then. For us to finish 6th again, we would have to finish above Liverpool or Spurs and i can't see that happening.
Saying that however, the season we finished 6th, Liverpool won the Champions League and we got the same number of points as they did.
Surprised there are not more comments on this excellent article. Coyle has a long way to go to match the success of BSA.
Fat Sam was one of the most underated managers in the prem.
Everywhere he went he basically had little or no cash but, as the OP points out, he finds a style which may not suit a lot of people, but its a style which has often got results, allowing his team to not only survive but to compete.

No Bolton manager will ever achieve what BSA did at Bolton ...certainly not Owen Coyle ...you can bet your house on that, with complete confidence ....
