Skysports.com Big Sam eyes silverware By Alex Livie - Created on 13 May 2007 　　Sam Allardyce has revealed he left Bolton as he did not feel The Trotters could fulfil his desire to challenge for top honours. 　　The 52-year-old transformed Bolton's fortunes during his eight-year stay in the North West, but he claims he had grown frustrated by their failure to break into the top bracket. Big Sam 透露離開博爾頓的最大原因 是因為在Trotters的八年期間始終無法更進一步 這讓他感到很挫敗，所以選擇離開。 　　He turned his back on the club last month, but seems set for a swift return to management with Newcastle. 　　The former Notts County boss has held talks with The Magpies and reports suggest he will be handed the managerial reins next week. 　　Allardyce is happy with his achievements as a manager, but is determined to move his career forward before he retires. 作為一名領隊，Big Sam 對於自己獲得的成就很高興 但他決心要走向更高層次！ 　　"I've had a lot of praise for what I've done, but there's nothing at the end of it," Allardyce said in the Mail on Sunday. 　　"I want silverware - and I'm determined to get it before my days as a manager are over." 　　He added: "For me, the level we were at, what was happening, how we were going, I didn't feel comfortable with anymore. 　　"I needed a change. I started to think about me for the first time in eight years and said it's my time to go." --
