Samuel tells Bolton fans to lay-off Megson
Bolton Wanderers fullback Jlloyd Samuel has demanded the boo-boys get off manager Gary Megson's back.
Wanderers have slipped into the bottom three following a dismal run.
And as they prepare for Saturday's clash with fellow strugglers Wolves, Samuel is calling for a united front.
The ex-Aston Villa star said: "The fans, more than ever, have got to stay behind us. Them criticising us isn't going to help at all.
"We're sticking together, staying positive and have a game against Wolves to look forward to now.
"Every game is a big game in the Premier League because no one gives you an easy ride.
"But we have got a big December against teams in and around us, so we have to capitalise on that as best as we can."

Lay off Megson ????? if the dross you have served up for the past 2 seasons is the worst excuse for football i have ever seen.IT WOULD MAKE WIMBLEDON LOOK LIKE BRAZIL . Not one of Megsons signings would not be fit to grace any team in the Prem .42 MILLION SPENT ON WHAT??? 7 defenders who cant defend ??? you are a disgrace to football if you think that display at FULHAM WAS ABSOLUTE THUGGARY , THATS WHY I AND THOUSANDS OF BOLTON FANS STAY AWAY AND REFUSE TO PAY THE WAGES OF A SECOND RATE TEAM .i HAVE SUPPOORTED BWFC FOR OVER 40 YEARS , NEVER AGAIN WILL YOU GET A PENNY OF MINE
