Pavis was looking to sell up at the time Sam left, to the former owner of Doncaster Rovers who'd dropped into non-league and almost went extinct during his spell at the helm. Sam would have been crazy to turn the Bolton job down and stick with Notts. He left us in a far better place than he found us, 20 places or so higher. Bolton and the FL were the villains of the piece for us not being compensated.
