Bolton boss Megson: No problem with Samuel

Bolton Wanderers boss Gary Megson says there's no rift with Jlloyd Samuel after a row two weeks ago.

Megson was reported to have become embroiled in a dressing-room bust-up with Jlloyd Samuel during a half-time rant at his players in the 2-1 defeat at Wolves nine days ago.

He said: "What went on with Jlloyd at Wolves was a professional thing in terms of an incident I saw on the pitch on which I was proven right.

"Jlloyd didn't think I was right, but he was shown a DVD of it at the time, and I was proven to be right. End of story. Finished.

"I feel I've every right to say what I feel; Jlloyd has his right to say what he feels, as does everybody else.

"It happened again on Saturday against Manchester City. I had a go at one of our players I thought should be doing better, and it will happen again tomorrow against West Ham.

"But I've no problem with Jlloyd, I've no problems with any player, and they've no problem with me."
