BITS AND BOBS

Last updated : 28 September 2006 By Editor

Despite rumours last night that yesterday's game between Bolton and Portsmouth was to be called off as Harry Redknapp was feeling bunged up and Sam Allardyce wasn't feeling too grand the only Premiership game of the evening finished 1-0 to Bolton. Meanwhile before the game Allardyce announced he is planning to sue the BBC.

He said: "I have had lengthy discussions with my lawyers and I am planning to sue the BBC over the false and highly damaging allegations."

"My lawyers have advised me that I have a very strong case in relation to the programme.

"I have therefore instructed my lawyers to prepare my case against the BBC."

Kevin Bond has been sacked by Newcastle after the allegations made against him in the Panorama programme last week.
