Leyther_Matt Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Bumped in to a couple of fellow Whites at work this morning. Been a long time since we’ve had reason to be smiling the day after the game. Probably a good job we aren’t allowed in the grounds or I’d have been getting home not long before I’d be getting up for work again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone pulled their weight and the underrated Tutte was excellent. I don't think Tutte is underrated by fans? Of all the regular 1st teamers I think the only two consistently praised from their 1st appearances have been Tutte and Delaney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For long spells we got stuck in our own half with no idea how to get out I know I’m jumping on the bandwagon here, but this is a ridiculous statement. Don’t you think the dictation of the game is completely different because of the scoreline? We were ahead for about 80 minutes of the game. If it was 0-0 late into the second half, I’ve no doubt we’d have had more shots on target. The only statistic that matters in the goal tally. Fuck everything else.

Aye And the clean sheet That's what pleased me most, because of the fundamental change we made to get it Can't see how you couldn't be happy with it Edited November 14, 2020 by ZicoKelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantra Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Credit to Baptiste yesterday, solid performance. Gethin Jones can nail down the LWB position I'm sure, until we can get someone new in. If Gilks, Sarce, Doyle, Delf, Santos can stay fit, we should be aiming for 15-18 points from our next 9 games, which would take us up to the end of December. Port Vale, Cheltenham, and Carlisle on paper are our hardest fixtures in that time as they're all Play Offs or higher. Stevenage, Scunthorpe, Southend, Walsall, Tranmere and Morecambe are all very winnable games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anonymous in the Mansfield game. I probably expected more from him though as he has played all his career at a higher level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted November 14, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted November 14, 2020 I’ve liked the look of Miller in his cameos, between the strikers we have, I think we’ll do ok for goals once all are fully fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter MickyD Posted November 14, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted November 14, 2020 I always said, throughout 45+ years of watching Bolton, that a 4-5 entertaining-as-fuck home loss doesn’t have the feel-good factor that a scrappy 1-0 win has. Entertaining football is way down the pecking order of what makes a football fan happy. Results are pretty much all that matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 3-4 home loss to Watford a few years ago (probably about 10!) was one of the most entertaining games I've ever seen. Proper VFM.
