Allardyce: "I Want To Look Forward - Not Back!"
"But actions speak louder than words. We played them off the park and won the game.
"That answers everything for me, rather than get into a fight.
"I would rather look forward than back. I have moved on and left Bolton in the best state it has ever been in.
"I do not understand his (Gartside's) thinking. He believes I have done certain things which I have not.
"He really should not. I have given them a great platform so I do not know why he is so critical of me.
"It has been a great day for me, bringing my side back to my old club.
"Your hope your players produce a committed performance, not just as individuals but as a team.
"That happened in the first 45 minutes and we killed the game off stone dead.
"Bolton put us under the cosh a little bit but we saw the game out extremely well."
