West Ham United boss Alan Curbishley says Bolton Wanderers didn't give Sammy Lee enough time as manager.
"The people above see fit to make changes but in the last few games, which includes when Sammy was there, Bolton had gone back to being Bolton again. It was a settled side and the one people were used to seeing.
"And no matter what happens in the Premiership you are never really stranded even if you find yourselves in the bottom three. For those clubs in the bottom three, one or two wins at this time in the season can change everything.
"Bolton got a decent point against Villa and looked settled so perhaps that is the key for them."
