    Gutted for him, he has so much passion, done everything he possibly could to play for England, would of been a valuable sub and his experience could of been vital within the squad. Could be a career ender for him, will the players win it for Beckham? will this give them an early excuse for not winning it I hope all our other players don't start dropping like fly's
  2. Cahill is back in training next week, i think we have done brilliant considering we have had to rely on players like Ricketts[out of position] and sometimes A.'O'Brien who really hasn't been convincing, even though he was our 2nd best player of the season a couple of seasons back, plus Zat Knight was terrible under Megson, but he seems like a brand new player under Coyle[he's still had a few bad games]. When it was revealed he would be out of the season, i was gutted, considering our league position at the time and with him being one of our better players and scoring goals, i really didn't know if we would manage to survive, didn't even know if Cahill would play again for Bolton, but look at the results below and also the clean sheets without Cahill. February Sat 6 H Fulham PREM D 0-0 Tue 9 A Manchester City PREM L 0-2 Sun 14 H Tottenham FACP D 1-1 Wed 17 A Wigan Athletic PREM D 0-0 Sun 21 A Blackburn PREM L 0-3 Wed 24 A Tottenham FACP L 0-4 Sat 27 H Wolves PREM W 1-0 March Sat 6 A West Ham Utd PREM W 2-1 Tue 9 A Sunderland PREM L 0-4 Sat 13 H Wigan Athletic PREM W 4-0 8 League games, Goals conceded 10, Clean sheets 4, Wins 3, Draws 2, Loss 3, Points 11, 2 games in the cup against Spurs, we should of had that tie wrapped up in the 1st half, but then the 2nd half and replay our defending wasn't great, Blackburn and Sunderland away was also poor defending, also Robinson cost us against Man City when we we're the better side. It's been good and bad at times without him, but much better than expected. 11 points is a great return imo, I think Coyle has to take huge credit obviously, maybe man management, maybe the players understanding we're in a fight, and we have good players to win games. So do we get Cahill back straight in the starting 11, put him as sub? wait till the Utd game? Does Ricketts then go back to Left back, Robinson was dropped just before Cahill got the blood clot Some will say, our defensive record is better without Cahill, but Cahill is superb, him and a better Knight, this will give huge confidence to the rest of the side, if you have confidence in your back line, other players will be more confident to play their own game without worrying about the defenders making mistakes and costing us and chance or giving us to much to do to get back in the game. Coyle has a decision on his hands, but it's a very welcome one. Welcome back Gary Cahill!
  3. I thought Weiss showed great spirit when he came on, yes he tries to much at times to impress. But he ran his heart out for us, he won a ball that shouldn't of been his, then did a nice piece of skill to win a throw-in. Then he delivered a fantastic cross, that very nearly found Klasnic for a 5th. Gary Caldwell will not want to watch Match of the day tonight, but i am for sure. It's not always been as good as today under Coyle, but he has changed this team for the better. We are not safe yet, but it looks really good for us as the table shows. Can't wait to see what Coyle can do with this team. Yes we will lose again and have nights like Sunderland last Tuesday, but from what i have seen so far under Coyle has given me belief and optimism again. It's a great day, hopefully we get safe soon, and then move on and see what Coyle does in the summer.
  4. Yes i have a job [currently off work for 2 week] Not quite sure what you mean.
  5. I would like to think so Casino i don't post to get judged, but i know people in life get judged, i don't like to comment on myself, i'll leave it other people, i don't want to come across as some people view me, but then does that mean i change my character.
  6. Arsenal have just made it 2-1 against 10 man Hull in the last minute Rounds of today's results very nicely!
  7. I understand i have history of being childish, but i feel my posts have improved, i've tried to give good feedback about football. I think some people hold a grudge on me, and then like a pack all gang up on me[not everyone] and then come out with stuff like this is a pathetic post, start going out, get a girlfriend etc. I don't know anyone in real life of here, no doubt we have crossed paths once or twice before but i'm not really what you make me out to be, i have friends and enjoy my life. I have seen posts on here, that are not really my cup of tea, but i don't say anything really[if i do it's all tongue in cheek] this was about Bolton Wanderers, yes the qoutes we're not about Bolton Wanderers when they we're made. But in my book they we're associated with different aspects of the Wanderers. I changed the Sam Allardyce quotes to Owen Coyle, some of the quotes we're for Jussi, Jay Jay, the coaches etc. I put them in different catergory's that i thought linked well. i was wrong, please let me move on, i like Wways, it's full of characters, i'd like to me one of those, but sometimes i don't feel like i do my self any favours/or given a chance by many. The mods have been fair to me, and i'll try and think more. I know it's an easy responce to say go get a life, but why not comment on the post instead of trying to give personal remarks.
  8. Quality performance from Bolton. So much confidence for the team this, and also for players like Elmander, Muamba and Taylor. Muamba colossal, Elmander quality, Knight a rock, the team superb! 4-0, another clean sheet and 8 points of the drop Owen Coyle is doing well!
  9. I honestly thought i was posting something quite decent, but it seems i was wrong.
  10. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvaBI1jB6vo&feature=player_embedded# Silly and funny ! i'm sure many did this kinda thing in class.

    When he came on for AC Milan against Man Utd, he came close with a rocket volley and whipped in a few brilliant crosses. He will be a very good sub to have IMO and what he's lost in pace and that, he makes up with the ability to create something for us from crossing and set pieces.
  12. The book is called ACCESS ALL AREAS: The official photographic book of Bolton Wanderers. Not old as in the days of Nat Lofthouse, about 7 or 8 years old.
  13. There are a couple of movies that hit the big screen in the next few weeks that i'm looking forward to watching. Clash of the titans[Release Date April 2nd] and How to train your dragon[Release Date March 26th] Here are the trailers and both can watched in 3D. Maybe not your taste, but they look good to me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpZ5D_Wc4cA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHUhygdAZIw&feature=related
  14. It wasn't really a copy/paste job, it was from an old Bolton book i have. Different quotes for different parts of Bolton Wanderers. I typed most of it myself but take no credit except the last line. Just thought they had meanings. I put them in different category's "Genius is one percent, ninety-nine percent perspiration." - this was on one of the Jay Jay Okocha pages.
  15. You're not far wrong Alf!
  16. THE REEBOK STADIUM - HOME "Where memories are deep-rooted, dreams come true and passion flows through the veins - the Reebok Stadium." THE FANS " Love to one's club. Devotion to the welfare of Bolton Wanderers. The virtues and actions and the passion which inspires one to serve one's club." " To regard ones team with excessive respect, admiration and devotion." OWEN COYLE "A true leader has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to the needs of others. He does not set out to be a leader, but becomes one by the quality of his actions and the integrity of his intent" "A leader's job is to look into the future, and to see the organisation not as it is... but as it can become." "Leadership is practised not as much in words but in attitude and actions." TEAMWORK, ATTITUDE AND DETERMINATION "Teamwork means that we share a common ideal, Embrace a common goal. Regardless of our differences, we strive shoulder to shoulder, Confident in one another?s faith, trust, and commitment. In the end, teamwork can be summed up in five short words.... We believe in each other." "Enter every activity without giving mental recognition to the possibility of defeat. Concentrate on your strengths, instead of your weaknesses... on your powers, instead of your problems." "Your opponent, in the end, is never really the player on the other side of the net, or the swimmer in the next lane, or the team on the other side of the field, or even the bar you must high jump. Your opponent is yourself, your negative internal voices, your level of determination." WHEN TIMES ARE HARD " We cannot change yesterday. We can only make the most of today, and look with hope towards tomorrow." TRAINING AND HARD WORK = ACHIEVING YOUR GOALS "Countless, unseen details are often the only difference between mediocre and magnificent" "Perfect preparation prevents pathetic performance." "Genius is one percent, ninety-nine percent perspiration." "The limits of the possible can only be defined by going beyond them into the impossible." BECOME WINNERS "Winners are the people who when the odds are stacked against them, and those around them have fallen, will have the courage to look within themselves and make the unbelievable believable, and the impossible possible." "You measure the size of the accomplishments by the obstacles you had to overcome to reach your goals." "BOLTON WANDERERS - OUR CLUB, OUR PASSION, OUR LIFE!"
