Beginning of the season I was all for not having a keeper on the bench, the odds on a keeper being sent off or injured are very high, but now getting to this point in the season id prefer to be a bit more cautious. But I trust IE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Just get one on the bench we have wasted weeks of the season fannying about with that position plus other teams will no doubt be onto this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bolton va va Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I'm a huge IE supporter but this going into games without a sub keeper seems to be an unnecessary gamble.....if you're permitted 7 subs, why risk it ? If I was Forest Green's manager next week, i'd instruct my team to swing the 1st corner under the bar & get everyone to clatter into Gilks !!!

Could be wrong Think that must have been a factor at points, but he's not bothered with a sub keeper when on loan MM hasn't been in the squad either. Hopefully we wont get caught out.

Dr. Feelgood Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I wonder if IE bothers insuring his car or house ? It really is crazy. I think he intimated this week that he may review the decision & implied that some matches may require it more than others .... I read that to be play-offs if that was where we ended up.

masi 51 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 If it comes to the playoffs or say the Exeter game where the winners get promoted if i was Exeters manager i would be telling my forwards to be giving Gilks a dig at every chance......sooner or later it will cost us No need to have 5 winger/forwards on the bench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ani Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Tbf it has worked so far with the subs coming on making a difference. He often changes all the front 4. But still risky wonder if we have an outfield player who can do a job ? Although Crellin playing earlier in season implies not 😁😂😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJG Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Evatt said Brockbank is the backup. https://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/sport/19171395.bolton-wanderers-boss-ian-evatt-hints-outfield-player-emergency-keeper-option/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted March 20, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted March 20, 2021 Evatt said last week he'll carry on the same in some games but others where the risk is too great, there will be a keeper on the bench. I expect 7 outfield players today but Jensen on the bench next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" I'm happy with Gilks, but at his age , fit as he is, if he gets a knock we'd be bollocked without a reliable alternative. I'd sooner get someone in and have Gilks as a spare". This was posted middle of January. If I was opposition as soon as I saw Boltons bench I'd be on to my teams Kevin Davies equivalent and telling him to get into Gilks ribs early on. We've got away with it for ages but we'll come unstuck sooner or later. Baptiste and Santos can't repel all boarders for another nigh on 1.000 minutes. If you're reading this Matt I'm sure it will be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
