I think it's fair to say he did better than expected at Celtic in the CL, the rest was almost a given. His time at Bolton was blighted by the turmoil surrounding the club, the ownership situation, the 160m debt, the administration looming, no money to spend, other teams sniffing around players etc etc. They played some decent stuff and lost a lot of games by 1 goal. Sure they deserved to go down but were not the worst team to ever get relegated. In the end while it is on his record, the circumstances probably caused the relegation more than the manager did, so maybe he should be given a little bit of credit for his time there.
