Gary Megson becomes Hitler’s latest victim

The latest internet craze is a series of videos posted on You Tube in which Hitler gives his verdict on topical events.

So far the Fuhrer has delivered damning verdicts on, amongst many other things: Michael Jackson, Usain Bolt, Oasis splitting up, Cristiano Ronaldo leaving Manchester United and – in the ultimate parody – the video craze itself.

Your guide to all the pre-match Mystic Meggery and fence-sitting ahead of the Whites’ trip to Ewood Park

1. Big Sam Allardyce seems to be worried about getting booed by Bolton fans, which is why he’s getting his excuses in early by blaming his old buddy Phil Gartside . Of course, Big Sam isn’t squeaky clean in all this, as is pointed out here.

2. Meanwhile, Gary Megson has employed his own complex mind games… by yet again telling our opponents how wonderful he thinks they are.

Bolton Wanderers v Arsenal: The fans’ view

Sunday, September 21st, 2008 | BWFC People, Danny Shittu, Ebi Smolarek, Eddie Davies, Fabrice Muamba, Gary Megson, Gavin McCann, Kevin Davies, Kevin Nolan, Mustapha Riga | 2 Comments

The Bolton Wanderers match report you won’t see in the papers or on Match of the Day…

Here’s what the various Bolton Wanderers message boards thought of the 3-1 home defeat to Arsenal:

- We played OK but the fact is that we are now in free fall and the clock is ticking for Gary Megson.

- Our defence was a complete shambles. It was men against boys. After allowing Arsenal to come back again, Megson clearly has to go.

- Eddie Davies, who was at the game, cannot have been happy with the poor defending.

- Hallelujah! Megson dropped Gavin McCann! But he should’ve picked Mustapha Riga!

- Why did Megson bother buying Riga? He looks like a world beater and looked much fitter than Ebi Smolarek, who had a very poor debut. Fabrice Muamba and Danny Shittu also had stinkers.

- Alternatively, Shittu is getting an unfair amount of stick and is far from our worst defender.

- Kevin Nolan had his best performance in a white shirt for three years.

- The only positive performance was from the fans, who were excellent throughout the game. The atmosphere in the Reebok Stadium was great, even though the stewards seem intent on silencing the so-called ‘singing section’ in the North Stand.

- Setanta’s coverage was totally biased. After the game all they talked about was the Kevin Davies tackle with hardly any mention of the offside goal.

- It was a great tackle from Davies, even Mark Lawrenson said so on Match of the Day! So Arsenal fans should stop whinging about it.

- However, why did MOTD ask Nicklas Bendtner about it? He even admitted he couldn’t see it properly. Why not ask Davies himself?
