    Better get used to Coleman then 😛 Sounds very out there, and so random a thing to "fall out" over
  2. Bolton shirt does have a mosque on the back... They're laughing with this though,charge 125 quid, if people don't buy it, blame the far right etc.
  3. We hit the playoffs relying on loan players and very little squad development. Progress is hitting the playoffs with our own squad, against opponents that have also progressed. There's a pack at the top, and they will start to become a mainstay at the top.
  4. anyone elses feed really jumpy and laggy?
  5. Sorry, misread what i meant, I mentioned that there was no racism as there was nobody to be racist to, the migration hadnt happened by then, but things were a lot worse. In the book it mentions one migrant, which is an italian bloke who threatens them with a knife, threatens to cut their eyes out if if they stop kicking the ball against his fence. We needed the migrants and invited them over, in turn allowed things like kids getting an education and women rightly so, being able to go to work. One of the highlights of his youth he mentions is being given a pear, which was an absolute luxury, but some people look back on these times with the pre mentioned rose tinted.
  6. People longing for the rose tinted spectacled view of Britian before the onset of improved communication. Reality is much different. Just re-read "My pal Spodger", having read it as a kid, based in Bolton in the 1920's. These people long for these times but reading the book as an adult, shows how bad things really were and people didn't know any better. Granted there js no racism in the book (which was written in 1960's), as there wasn't really anyone to be racists towards. An era where kids had to go to work in dangerous cotton mills because there weren't enough workers, and the vast majority of houses from then have been pulled down as part of the Slums act.
  7. They'll hang in as long as they can, extra 6 months is a hell of a salary.
  8. Got it down to 800 now through Compare the market.. That'll do.
  9. My lads walking round singing "WE ALL DREAM OF A TEAM OF NICKY HUNT!".. Only 9 so no idea where that's come from 😛
  10. annoying thing, I've got 20 years without a claim, hastings have capped it at 9 years !
  11. Renewal time.. Good grief, Policy gone up to 2400 a year!! Rang them and after 2.5 hours on hold (kept getting cut off), they have it down to 1700 for both cars. Can change to Esure and it will come down to 1150 for both cars, but that includes a huge payment upfront.. Still 50 a month cheaper. Absolute farce atm! They even had the cheek to say "If you can get a cheaper quote, ring us and we'll try to beat it".
  12. let him, he needs to put himself in the shop window as I can't see him being with us next season, did well today, can't fault him, and hopefully he proves himself worthy of an extension.
  13. Going for the Hatrick 😛
  14. grat deflection from collins
  15. 4 defenders on the bench, sign of how tight its getting player wise

    Bit gutting really, Sithole has played in league 1? granted not many games but surely it's worth benching them and using them if needed. Sonny Sharples looked to have potential when he played earlier this year (although I'm a bit biased as i used to teach him)

    Said it earlier, but what's the best team for? Surely we should be looking at one of these to step up?

    Our luck.. sods law..
  19. Bad photshop blend of two images, one hands in focus the other blurred, Shouldn't have edited, or should have said it was, really is a "nothing to see here"

    Get sitole from the b team.. Otherwise why are we wasting money on it,
  21. childish is the word I'd use.. would have looked even more an arse if RW hadn't scored the re-bound.
  22. Can't have a captain on 18 yellows. How do you change club captain when your near top of the league. Maybe a summer transfer has to be one of those types, toals got potential, iredale has the drive, but they're all lacking.
  23. School boy / Sunday league esque scrambling for the ball. 5 strikers currently injured, every defender except toal injured at some point, and a key midfielder who's a shell of himself since wigan (morley). Oh and keeper out. We've had a bad season injury wise. The fact we currently have 8 players out sums it up (baxter, johnston, Taylor, Dan n, Charles, gomes, Victor, carty Personally I don't think we will get promoted, I wouldn't fancy playoffs atm either.
