SAM Allardyce has launched a scathing attack on the way Wanderers have been managed since he left.
The former Reebok boss accused his successors of needlessly "trying to fix something that wasn't broken".
Allardyce, who guided Bolton from the Championship to the top half of the Premiership during eight years as manager, has spoken for the first time on Wanderers' decline this season.

He said: "To see the demise of a team that was put together over a huge period of time and then virtually all pulled apart, and I am not just talking about on the field but off the field, is quite sad and upsetting for me."
