desperado

JDB’s legs had gone. As good as Maghoma had been he’d become less influential. No need for CDM in Sheehan, Morley did well when he came on. And Charles coming on was, well, completely understandable wasn’t it? We all wanted to see him on didn’t we? And we carried on creating chances, some good ones.

He can have them every game. My MOM today 👏

That would be my view too. But instead, I’ve learnt, you have to let everybody have extreme viewpoints, for a balanced debate, even though extreme opinions (Evatt is Phil Neal, makes wrong decisions, makes poor subs, bought the wrong players. Bod is Shit. Vic is shit and so much more) are repeated ad infinitum. Just to prove some pre-conceived negative opinion, that needs reinforcing on a wanderers forum. Pathetic

This is the problem we have with our support Pretenders who think they know best. 2 conflicting opinions, who somehow think their opinion should be taken as some kind of reason for not getting 3 points. Yes post your opinion. But accept the fact that you are both so far off reality and your opposite extremes are going to be questioned Both wrong

Think he's got a point here @radcliffe white

Not sure about that pal. Is that a genuine assessment of the game?

Santos starts 👏 Hope he’s not risking an injury. More hoping it was false info.

I’m really not in the Blackburn relegation crew (unless we stay down which none of us are hoping/wishing/expecting) Would love to play them in the championship next season

Reckon your best bet @MickyD is take any spare then swap it for one of the (very few, looks like less than 10!) west lower ones

Surely you’re making your way over the Pennines for this?

@tomski thought you might appreciate some blue dots to start the morning! 🤣 Even if we sell no more in the South, it justifies our decision, we’ve got our own fans in there who wouldn’t have been there otherwise. One of ours just purchased, you can’t get two together anywhere else now. Latter days of prem had a cut off at 27k didn’t it? Was that with this level of segregation? Or would 26.5k see us sell out today? I reckon there’s a fair few of those going to go today. Portsmouth twitter fans put in their place over ticket allocation - good to see. 👏

Fuck me this is huge! But as @barrycowdrill says I can’t shake off this let down we’ve had on big occasions this season… Yes I can (hands over ears blocking out my internal negative thoughts). This is Bolton Wanderers, we produce big, special moments in promotion winning seasons and today is going to be one of them. Let’s get the place banging, no excuses, have a few beers beforehand and get those vocal cords lubricated and make sure we do our bit 👏. A first for us in Nam Ploy today, table for 10 booked at midday. COYFWM 👏👏

Had a search about can’t see anything? What’s the details/source?

Jones too

looks like They’re all fit! Including Charles who could be on the bench.

It’s another unique aspect to being a Bolton fan, which strangely I quite like, that we genuinely have fans who consider some clubs to be a rival/derby, yet other wanderers fans aren’t touched by them! I embrace it all, I love it, adds a bit more passion. I’ve immersed myself in the newest version with Wigan. Even got taken along with the Morecambe debacles last few years. The Blackpools, Burnleys, Prestons Burys all have a great edge too and I really look forward to them. The Tranmeres, Wolves relationships still fester with me and is/was/could be prickly, If we are lucky enough to get alongside our other NW rivals, City, Liverpool, Everton I’d gladly embrace those derbys too. But for me it’s United closely followed by Blackburn that stand out as the ones top of the tree for rivalry. I would love to play Blackburn next year, hopefully in the Championship rather than L1.

After that result tonight I don’t want to be going into that Shrewsbury game 4 points behind Derby!

What was the clamour for Greaves to lose his job for failing to get promotion?

Get in!

Stats going more in Wycombe’s favour. Should I be feeling optimistic?

Stats suggest even?

Yeh, you are probably right. Conceded some goals without him there too, would rather have him in. I think the only thing we can take, is that it’s not crucial he’s there, we can win games without him.

From who?

Keep the updates coming. I’ve gone for a date night with flash scores and WWays for notifications

“Should either player not feature, however, Bolton may find some solace in statistics – which point to a surprisingly positive trend. The pair have only both been absent from a starting line-up at the same time once – a 2-1 home win against Wycombe Wanderers in February which also represented the last run-out for top-scorer Dion Charles. Santos has played 40 games in all competitions and missed 14; on those occasions, Bolton have won eight, drawn two, and lost twice – against Championship side Middlesbrough in the League Cup and Carlisle United at home in League One. Sheehan has played 49 times in all competitions and missed seven games entirely. Wanderers have won five of those outings, their only defeat at home to Bristol Rovers in December.” From the BEN. So not all doom and gloom if Sheehan and/or Santos aren’t fit. Would prefer them in, but a decent record without them. I’d hope Toal central, Forrester (or Jones) right and Iredale Left. Can’t make my mind up whether Morley (direct replacement) or Dempsey (Tommason as CDM) in if Sheehan unfit.
