I'd rather have that than have players who look like they're not arsed or even worse, stomp off down the tunnel

Making those substitutions on 44mins was disrespectful to the players hooked and smacked of desperation. He makes that many changes to our starting X1 that it's inevitable that we have a bunch of players who no longer give a shit.

Out of Christie, Tutu and Dacres Cogley, i reckon Dac Cog is our best option in that position. He's quicker than Christie,he's a better defender than Tutu and he offers more going forward.

SS needs to ditch this bingo selection bollocks. Just play your best X1 every fucking week and 'if' or rather when we get injuries we'll just deal with it at the time. They are fit young men, they can deal with 4 games in 10 days or whatever it is. 2 points dropped today against a team that had earned 1 point from 18 going into this game.

20 points from the last 10 games. Thought Sheehan was immense today,he made a couple of misplaced passes out of about 100.

A trio of Morley, Randall and Sheehan are too lightweight for a game like this. Need Dempsey and Erahon in that midfield.

Schuey was saying we had a 100% fit squad, yet no Erhahon, Gale or Dac Cog yesterday and how does McAtee not even make our bench?

Ditto. He should be nowhere near our first choice starting X1.

You can tell ACD is absolutely loving being here, he plays like he's enjoying himself.

I very much doubt Randall would have scored the goal that Dempsey did yesterday, he wouldn't have got there to get a shot away. Said it from the start, Randall is just not a Bolton type of player.

That Christie interview is mint, he's got a good football brain and his experience will be invaluable.

I've watched us for a long long time, special times under Jimmy Armfield, Ian Greaves, Bruce Rioch, Big Sam, even Parky & Evatt and i'm getting that same feeling that we're on the verge of achieving something special. The blend is right, the defence has tightened, we're scoring goals. We can do it this season.

And at that time i was nicking his bird 😂. Reidy must have had a shittish winter in 1979 🥴

Back in the early 90's i was refused entry to a boozer in Didsbury cos i had trainers on. So a mate who was already inside the pub pushed his 'proper' shoes through the tiny toilet window and we swapped. Unbeknown to me he'd stepped in some dog shit outside and i had it all over my hands. I got in the pub though, so fuck 'em. It seemed a very long walk through a packed pub to get to the toilets & wash my hands.

I tuned in to enjoy Wigan suffer and although they were shite, Port Vale didn't muster one shot on target all afternoon.
