Bolton fan in peace, just coming here to ask, what can we expect from Hill and Flitcroft? |  | | |  |

Pink trousers and promotional cross-dressing. |  |

Our best ever manager, if he has he mojo back you could yet stay up!
Expect some strange interviews, formations and selections and don’t criticise him for god sake!!!
Good luck to you. |  |

Where to start??
If he's back in the mood he was 12 years ago - but with added experience - it could be a match made in heaven for Bolton
If he's carrying any of the weight of the past few seasons, expect tantrums and some very odd team selections
Give him plenty of scope and take his comments with a pinch of salt
I think the vast majority of us Daleys wish him luck for what he did for us |  |

Lots of team changes and a goalkeeping carousel. But if you get the old Keith back, you should be well pleased! |  |

In his first spell and at the beginning of his second spell we played excellent football, but during his last 18 months it was dour and not enjoyable. At times he tried to over complicate things by playing round pegs in square hole and some of his team selections were questionable. He also rubbed up some supporters the wrong way.
I think it depends which Hill you are getting, the earlier or later version. He will still be the best manager we have had, but it is interesting that under BBM were have started to see players who had stagnated under Hill blossom. |  | | |

You won’t stay up but if you give him chance to rebuild next season you’ll soon be back up the football ladder. I wish him well. |  | | |

Purple away kits. |  |

Keep him away from the media!!! Expect any problems to be the fault of the supporters. Don't sit any critical supporters near the dug outs..... Think that covers some of it [Post edited 31 Aug 2019 18:53]

Yeah, true about keepers. Major weak point for Hilly is signing a keeper he has faith in. | |

The best manager (and assistant) that we’ve ever had. We played some fantastic football under Hilly and he took us further up the league(s) than we thought possible.
Things went wrong toward the end of his time with us, Hilly just didn’t seem the same character and the team suffered.
You’ll see many fans say it will depend which Keith you get. He’s had time out of the game, will be refreshed, and has always been a proud Bolton lad. I think he’s perfect for Bolton right now. |  | | |

(Not that he had much faith in him)

Really hope he does well but the magic had well and truly deserted him by the end of his tenure here. | | | |

Thanks guys, sounds like he needs to be loved by the fans, which he will if he has us playing decent football, after the last mon we had, anything like football on the ground will be enough to endear him to us, gonna be a busy time for him between now and Monday night | | | |

I think that's a shrewd appointment. | | | |

Great appointment for Bolton.
Turned sour towards the end with us. Because he was our most successful manager and we was punching above our weight I think he felt he was above any critiscm from supporters. He should be coming back refreshed and deserves the opportunity at a higher profile club. | | | |

Really hope he does well. My worry for him is he's been brought in as a cheap option to manage them through the inevitable relegation before they bring in a bigger name next season. | | | |

I think relegation is a given this season, I'm thinking he's been brought in to give us a chance next season. | | | |

It's up to him to make it almost impossible for them to replace him then - like he almost did with us | |

Expect a red/white/black away kit and Man U anthem "This is the One" just before the start of every home game. |  |

We played the best football in the lower leagues for a decade under Hill, before he changed his philosophy and became far more caged - the football was dour, slow, and not entertaining. We went from having two promotions and numerous League One play-off challenges to fighting to avoid relegation over the course of one summer.
Some things remained the same throughout though - he never could take even the slightest bit of criticism and he usually always managed to say the wrong thing in interviews.
One thing that should serve you well is that he was always a great advocate of youth. We had some brilliant youth players come through the ranks because of him. |  | | |

Best appointment possible for Bolton. Great working knowledge of the two lower divisions, great experience, great success at Spotland on a comparatively low budget. His mate back alongside him and I think it's a fantastic chance for them both to replicate the success they had here.
I wish them well. Bolton are in safe hands. |  |

I wish him well personally, but I dislike Bolton so I hope they get more points deductions, we beat them and they get relegated. Then I hope he gets them back up, and we play them with a clean slate next season. |  |

Signed by parkin and sold before hill became manager.
I will give hill half the credit for Murray though. |  |
