If we win the 2nd leg of the play offs any fan attempting to enter the pitch after the game needs setting fire to. And any player drinking beer in the stands needs throwing down the stairs from WSU all the way to the dug outs.

Go on Charlie lad.

They were kicking him in the head because he had hold of a knife and had Just committed a terrorist attack. It was just a casual kicking with over zealous police. They were trying to control a terrorist by with whatever means necessary. Have you done much anti terror training? You speak like he's just some random piss head that's being restrained. He's an active terrorist with a knife in his hand wearing rucksack and had just attempted to murder the general public. They were kicking him to make him release the knife and probably knock the lunatic concussed to control the situation.

Beat Luton, beat Stevenage, beat Bradford or Stockport. Job done, no overthinking required.

I also don't really understand the seemingly visceral hatred for Starmer. He's a bit of a wet fart, but otherwise somewhat nondescript.

I ended up watching majority of that, I really like these full recordings of old telly, adverts are a great time capsule. Network premiere of GoldenEye, and Lock Stock coming to home video as well.

Got to be honest I hate the whole experience bar a brief spell on Wembley taking pics for the kids and the conourses are bang on albeit paying £15 a pint. Plymouth was special. Most others times just a wank expensive day out. It's one big fucking faff and hard work.

finger his arse, like you would do a ferret

I find it hard to comprehend that some people find that hard to comprehend...... in the coppers shoes i would have been more worried about the rucksack than the fucking knife!!...... but lets just ask him politely to put the knife down shall we?

Stabbing two people and attempting to stab others would definitely be up there. Hope that answers your question.👍

There are more countries in the world who have armed police officers than don’t. In most countries in the world he would have been shot dead. He’s lucky he only got away with a kick in the chops.

tbf to them, getting a load of coaches within a week and getting them filled is a task, not to mention if we play a local team, they'll be a scramble for the same coaches no big deal

He should have been shot directly through the skull never mind a few volleys.

I know Luton are on a good run of form and there is no downplaying that, but the teams they have beaten/drawn with on this run are hardly pulling up any trees, except Stockport maybe. Even then, Stockport have been iffy. i know we have struggled against the teams lower down the table this season, but we shouldn't be worried about Luton tbh. Strong team and decent performance and we win this.

I don't think it was proportionate.......they should have kicked his head into a mush.

Only done it once myself. Watford play off final. No shenanigans like yours but utterly fu*cking miserable coming back. I just wanted to be in a darkened room alone.

Yeh no issue at all. We fuck up, there’ll be bigger embarrassments and recriminations to face than some ribbing over booking coaches. Fair play for being organised and finding ways to maximise our attendance, A week is a short turnover to get it sorted. Its not cocky, it’s practical. Forward/positive thinking from all involved 👏

Yes he's down but the cunt still won't let go of the knife He got of lightly imo Police made a split second decision and the correct one Fuck him

100% agree on this. But, we didn't even win that game that night, which just made it all the more tin pot than it already would have been. It was embarrassing that.

He had a knife still in his hand and he'd just stabbed two people. The guy deserved shooting dead. Not sure there's much comparison to a bloke ballooning at a football match tbf.

To be fair if he was a football fan he probably wouldn’t have just stabbed two Jewish fellas as he believes in a different make believe thing to them. Maybe he shouldn’t have booted him repeatedly as it’s not a good luck but I reckon I’d be quite aggressive if a known stabber was close to me with a knife which they would likely use to stab me

I think we all understand by now that if you mention the strengths of an opponent, you're obsessed with them and fearful. If you criticise a Bolton player's performance that player is this week's whipping boy or maybe this season's whipping boy because Bolton fans always need one. And if two people praise a player they've started a "love-in". If you question a managerial decision or tactic you're a neghead or anti-SS, and if you praise a performance in a game we didn't win you're a happy clapper. if you quote any stats (guilty) you're creating a narrative. Let the subjective debates continue 😀

Fat Frank will be on the next episode.

Some massive over thinking going on here and across Bolton sites generally. Just turn up Saturday, play best team available and get a result. Then do same three more times. Trying to work most favourable or least favourable combination of results to give us most or least chance to get promotion is 100% subjective. worrying what happens if Stevenage win or Exeter are on the beach. V Bradford is pointless. After Saturday we need at most to win next 3, or maybe even a draw in there.

Absolutely. If they beat us they’ll be 2nd favourites with the bookies I reckon, and in a lot of peoples eyes (you only had to listen to the reaction to “our Jack” on Talk Sport this morning) their pick to win the play-offs. Its not being obsessed or fearful of them, just an acknowledgment that the the most in-form team, with high expectations and recent top league experience are a side who will/should be more dangerous than Bradford, Stockport and Stevenage. But it’s football, Bolton Wanderers and a subjective debate so I see all perspectives from, nobody will touch us, to avoid out-of-form and injury ravaged Stockport at all costs because they have a hoodoo sign over us. The reality, and probably what will make this Saturday and the next month exciting, is that anyone of us could beat/lose to each other. But it is our turn, I’m fearful of no one. Our attacking threat is better than anyones. Bring it on!

Just would like to see both Plymouth and Luton missing out; either would be a bigger threat than the three in the places now

I See the free speech warriors are proving to be the biggest fannies about again over a Jimmy Kimmel joke 🙂

I actually think Barnsley will be really up for this one being their last home game and also Hourihan’s as well. They’ve given County 5k tickets so I’d expect a big crowd and a good atmosphere and in fact my mates over here have invited me to go with them since I can’t get to the Reebok and I must admit I’m tempted. They seem pretty up for it actually to see off what’s become a really poor season considering the quality of players they have so if I was County I’d be very nervous. I’m split on it actually because I don’t want County to slip up and let Luton or Plymouth in although I do agree with others on here that if we play to our strengths none of the others will stop us anyway. It’s ours to lose.

I missed our away game so Luton a team I've seen play exactly 0 minutes this season. But there are half a dozen teams that are going to finish within about four points of each other after 46 games. And unless we win none of us will have amassed the amount of points it took to finish 6th last year. We're all inconsistent as fuck, and trying to pick which one is the best has been a fools errand all season. We're as good (or as bad) as each other and any one is capable of beating anyone else.

I think “good” is very much in the context of form. Lets be honest, other than Lincoln and Cardiff, form hasn’t been something that any other side in L1 has sustained - Luton just happen to be the team that’s showing it at the moment. Wary I would say, not obsessed. Would rather have teams there without that kind of form. Anyway, they didn’t look great shakes back in November and they’ve not come up against anybody like ACD and Kenny recently, so fuck em 😂

A draw might get them in if Stevenage lose! Let’s just get em beat and out If it! 😂

Surely nobody is favouring Luton or Plymouth in the play-offs to Stockport?! Luton’s 5 and 10 game form is fantastic. We need to put them to bed Saturday. The form, fitness, player availability of a confident and firing Luton is surely a more concerning prospect than a bereft and and out-of-form Stockport, despite the fact they beat us twice nearly a year ago and knocked us out of the FA Cup 5 years ago.

Also how good does Kane look with these players alongside him? Drifts wherever he wants, plays other forwards in. Meanwhile England will have him isolated up front and then taking corners or something

I just can't imagine celebrating any goal fully knowing someone has to forensically find reasons to disallow it

4 of our more recent injuries - EE, Simons, McAtee and Dempsey - didn't they all occur in training rather than a match? We don't need a match to pick up injuries, so let's just get on with it. Our attitude should be that the play offs start on Saturday, as we can help our cause greatly in 3 ways: finishing top 4, keeping Luton out of the play offs, and maintaining momentum and confidence of both the team and fans.

27 years ago and it looks a world away: No names on back of shirts No electronic board for subs The pitch is dreadful No hotel?

700 in London supporters branch. Not quite half but the Kernow Liberation Front exiles always help with the impressive totals we get at far flung midweek games.

Plymouth are one of those clubs who can summon a mass of neutrals/semi interested folk who fancy a day out as the only club in their county has made it to a final. Oxford was similar. Of all the players off contenders we'd only outnumber Stockport. Stevenage and Luton will also get a ton of day trippers who support other London clubs in the main but are local enough to fancy watching a match. Bradford will be the novelty factor as said.

All correct but the Plymouth bit. It's 207 miles to Wembley for us but 226 for Plymouth 🤔

Never known anything like it and I don't think Starmer is good either. In fact he's made some right fuck ups. So many Tory voters have changed to Reform and must have collective amnesia from 2019.

It’s a fucking terror attack lad what were you hoping for? a nice deescalation chat & a slice of baclava ?

Mad stat I heard yesterday that was every single FA cup final since 2016 has involved either Man City or Chelsea.

Got all my pictures through off Adidas and Manchester Marathon. All covered in their watermarks so you have to buy them. £35+. Grok dealt with it within 0.2 seconds and cleared them all kept the pictures exactly the same. Will come handy for those school photos to any parents out there...

Regarding the police use of force it will all come down to was it 'reasonable, proportionate and necessary'. In this case I'd suggest they have nowt to worry about.

Our hotel booked, and then, hopefully, another 4,000 mile round trip!

Ah didn't think about that. Forget my sneaky feelings, always shit anyway

Does this help?
