Statement from the Official Bolton site:

BOLTON WANDERERS Football Club, Sammy Lee and Frank McParland have agreed to part company by mutual consent.

Bolton Wanderers Chairman Phil Gartside states: "This has been a difficult decision for all parties but we have agreed that time is right.

"Sammy has played an important role in the Club's recent history.  We wish Sammy and Frank well for the future.

"Our efforts will now be to look for a replacement manager and to concentrate on the future."

The Club will be making no further comment at this moment in time.

Now Bolton are in the sh*t! I really thought Sammy would continue at the club despite the below average performances.  Good luck for the future mate hope you find another club soon.

Edit: There's that word again "Mutual" hmmm I wonder........

No he left by mutual consent no one gets sacked these days

There is a vacancy at Anfield...

Bolton have parted company with manager Sammy Lee by mutual consent.

Lee, 48, was promoted from assistant manager in April after the exit of former boss Sam Allardyce.

But he has had a difficult start to the current campaign as Bolton lie second from bottom of the Premier League with just one league win to their credit.

"This has been a difficult decision for all parties but we have agreed the time is right," Bolton chairman Phil Gartside told the club's website.

General manager Frank McParland has also left the club.

First-team coach Ricky Sbragia could now take temporary charge of the side who face a trip to in-form Arsenal on Saturday.....

I wish him luck really, he was a great servant for us and I was please for him to have a chance to managed a Premier League team, unfortunaly the catastrophic beginning of the season didn't do him any favors...good Luck Little Sammy Lee...

From LFC.TV

Former Liverpool midfielder Sammy Lee has left his post as manager of Bolton Wanderers by mutual consent. 
The 48-year-old took over from the departing Sam Allardyce at the end of last season but has since struggled to live up to expectations at the Reebok Stadium, with the Trotters currently languishing in 19th place at the bottom of the Premier League table. 

 
Bolton's general manager Frank McParland has also left the club.
 
"This has been a difficult decision for all parties but we have agreed the time is right," Bolton chairman Phil Gartside told his club's website.
 
"Sammy has played an important role in the club's recent history. We wish Sammy and Frank well for the future."
 

Just a bridge to far for the man. Good luck though, on your future endeavours Mr Lee...

Indeed...

Gary Speed was supposed to be joining Sheff Utd today (post fall-out with Sammy Lee) - has that Sheff Utd deal gone through?

If it hasn't could Gary Speed be made player/coach - with some one like Gary Mac (ex Leeds colleague) joining him within the Reebok management team - just a thought...

Then take the time.

What is wrong with you lot? Totally inconsiderate. Duplicated postings make the forums a pain in the rear to read through. It's not as if it's hard to spot a thread like this.

Good luck for the future.

I feel for Sammy today but I believe he may have taken on too much too early. Good luck to him for the future though. Hopefully he's learnt a lot from his time at Bolton and he'll use it to his advantage.

Would anyone like to see him back at Anfield?

I was just about to ask the same red....could he be our new No: 2, now that Pako has officially left us?

Came as a major shock to me. Just saw it on SSN now I can't believe it. Are they doing that bad

Good luck in what ever you do sammy it was always going to be hard filling in big sams boots at bolton

I think it was inevitable, he never seemed to have the support of his players.

^^^ thats not really true, it was the general footballing community who were not sure, the players insisted that they were fine with him

Personally I would love to see him back at anfield. Bolton are gonna get relegated this year.

No he left by mutual consent no one gets sacked these days

You mean he left to further his career
