"I suppose I cannot achieve my ambitions here because if you want to be the best you have to have a bigger club than Bolton in the end. But we’re breaking some ground at the club that’s not been broken for many years. From my point of view the club can go farther than it has been for years and perhaps this squad can take it there. Then, who knows after that?"
"Perhaps we can get to a cup final and win one, which we have not done since 1958, and perhaps we can try to get into Europe. The club has never been there before and for me that would be one hell of an achievement as a manager. But in the end that becomes very difficult to continue with no real money to spend. Eventually, if the directors have as much ambition as I have they will go and find some money and we will get better that way."
