Big Sam spent eight years in charge of the Lancashire club during their most successful period of recent history taking them to the Premier League, where they stayed for 11 seasons, and to European competition.What he achieved at the formerly-named Reebok Stadium is still regarded as one of the most intriguing stories since the Premier League was formed.2

Bolton became an established Premier League club, played in the UEFA Cup and went to the League Cup final under Sam Allardyce’s rule

And now, with his old club faced with going bust, Allardyce is saddened by how their affairs have crumbed off the field.It depresses me a huge amount, he said on Fridays Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast.What Im hearing from within is that real problems are mounting up by the number of debts Bolton are acquiring. I hear there are winding up orders being delivered left right and centre for debts that are owned.Unfortunately there is a massive problem at the club and if theyre not sorted very shortly one of the things we havent seen for a long time may happen that they go under and Bolton Wanderers are made insolvent.I think that would be an absolutely tragedy for the town and everybody around here in Bolton.
