What a load of over exaggerated shit. We’re still alive and we’re competitive. We’ve got 1 point from 3 which is more than some league teams. Yes the kids look knackered but if you’re telling me they’d rather go back to playing in front of their family and a few dogs on Saturday rather than 2,000 fans who will back then whether they win lose or draw them you’re mad.

We’re in the shit; we all know we are. We’re holding things together by a thread, but we still had 2,200 fans in an away end backing the club for the afternoon. That’s all that matters. I want the takeover to happen, I want us to be competitive, but for as long as it doesn’t happen I will pay to watch these young lads play for Bolton. I don’t care if we lose, I will cheer a corner and free kicks like a goal and a point feels like we’ve won the league:

If we’re in league 2 next season but have FV as owners then so be it: We’ll take thousands to Salford and show them what a proper club is all about. Just be patient and give the kids as much support as you can for now.

I'm glad somebody gets it!

He’s getting fuck all just like you, this ain’t 1964 and those kids aren’t franny Lee, who incidentally had old pros around him to bed him in, these lads are being asked to prop up BWFC because FV can’t decide what they want to do and because the EFL won’t make a call on suspending our games, under the games duty of care this needs stopping now, Tuesdays game should be off, if FV can’t complete then a call needs to be made.

So you’d rather we go bump?

It's time for a bit of REALISM Mounts, this is far from ideal but it is what it is! When you finally come back from Spain & get back in the bubble you'll remember those Shite collapsing days of the 80's. You can choose, like then, to get behind the troubles we are having or live in la la land of previous expectations & call it a day!

I know you're not like that. If you can get past the hurt of the last couple of defeats & face adversity face on & give the support the club & town deserves, you'll feel a passion again thats not been seen for many a year.

What do you really think calling games off will achieve? A lot bloody worse than battling through with the current situation.

 REALISM! you can whinge & moan about shit you have no control over, or you can accept what it is & celebrate even the smallest triumph like a 0-0 against Coventry at home, the choice is yours

Realism? The reality is that it cant go on like this. There is no way such an inexperienced team can go on like this until the end of the season.This 100% effort stuff wont last beyond the end of this month. Injuries already kickng in who is next up Junior Whites ? You are literally talking about 0-6 and worse every game! Its simply not fair on the young lads and makes a mockery of the integrity of the competition .

If the takeover doesnt go through this week its Barzini or bust. 

Mounts is spot on.

So you want to call it a day do you?

Feel free, I for one won't.

 I see time again on social media.... If they play in the streets, we'll watch from the pavements,  OINO, Passion not fashion etc etc. Let's see who backs that up, current support would suggest plenty.

I've already said it's not ideal, it's far from great but it is REALISM. Accept it & support is all we have left, there's Fook all you, I or any of us can do about it other than support!. As for a mockery of the integrity of the competition! Behave. I've lost count of the many times the integrity of the game has been ruined by money clubs. Get back to basics & get behind your team in whatever guise it currently has. If you don't understand that, then you've already nailed your flag to the mast & quit

Same.

Driving back tonight after the game, Junior asks whether we're going to Gillingham by car or by train.
She didn't ask whether we were going or not, just how.

Not knocking the enthusiasm but it will get boring soon unless something is done

You're doing a good job with her

They are playing 90 minutes football not going over the top.

Need to take a little emotion out of it. There’s not a safety issue here IMO, there are lads that are for as fleas.

Bit of a pain getting dry bummed every game, but there we are.

 

I disagree. Kids are being asked to do a job some of them aren’t, and some of them will never, be able to do. It’s about safety to an extent, but there are other issues too.

Can’t be arsed posting again so I’ll cover it here - I thought it was a red, and I think Breightmet Boy is in the top five proper bell ends on here.

COYW.

Cheers, but she's costing me a fortune.

Drove today, though, so it was a cheap day out.

My eldest is back to the desert next weekend so I can start saving up

When you back

For Peterborough was the reply

I don't think the kids are any more at risk than any professional player providing the ref does his job and these kids have been playing 90 minutes for years so IMO the duty of care argument is bollocks. And if we pick up a few injuries - as is normal - a) they're likely to mend a lot faster than older players anyway and b) we have a load more kids that will be gagging to step up and get bummed every week.

As for "it can't go on because the fans can't take losing every week" ...a) it might/will probably have to and b) what fans are going to stay away when there's always the possibility that they might actually win one day?

They're certainly on the steepest learning curve imaginable, they're costing the club f*** all, they're giving the fans something to be positive about in the grimmest of times, they're attracting new younger fans to support BWFC and we may end up with a decent team in League 2. Personally, in the absence of money, I can't think of a better way of rebuilding our broken club.

If we do end up signing new players I only hope they're kids with promise who have the same desire to play and grow rather than the mercenary has-beens looking for a final payday we will probably be able to afford.

Utter madness? Maybe, but it's low-risk, low-cost madness with a huge potential upside.

I reckon Jake Turner and Luca Connell are sick as parrots right now.

Men against boys after the first half hour but another great effort by the kids.....& great support again with nearly everyone staying to applaud them even after a 0-5.

I don't get the throwing in the towel stuff......as long as we're putting a team on the pitch, even as hard as it's getting, we live to fight another day.

Tranmere are all over social media claiming bolton ran😀

Talking to one of the chaps on the photo tonight & he said that it didn't go at all well for Tranmere

& what horrible cunts Tranmere are.....the despicable foul on Brockbank that should have been a red card,  the twattish behaviour of their keeper & their soppy fans acting up from a safe distance.

It was always going to happen - the young lads in the lions den.

but we can’t just stop playing, we need to keep going until it’s sorted and try and scrap for everything that we can.

we have a club, we are breathing and yes we are getting beat, but we are trying our hardest, but it will get better.

all we can do is get behind them and show everyone that Bolton will never die.

Parky emailed the Football League asking for it not to be played

Why doesn’t he just Fuck off, the cretin 

I’d rather watch the kids running through walls get beat every week 5 or 6 than what he swerved up last season with pro’s who didn’t give a fuck 

Why do we need a senior manager if we are playing kids? Fuck off Parky
