I was reading this. " June 29, 1958: Teenager Pele is a footballing sensation as Brazil win their first World Cup A 17-year-old striker from Sao Paolo needed only four matches to write his name in footballing history as he inspired Brazil to its first World Cup in Sweden. Pele said after the Tounament " My Dad is shít at football, I can run rings around him"

I should clarify here, that I meant 17 year olds ought to be better at football, not that they actually are. They have a bit more energy is what I meant.

Is he a bit rusty? I mean was he holding his back and showing his teeth when you started getting a bit nippy?

You ever played your Dad at football?

When you think about it, a 17 year old ought to run rings around players that are 25 years old and more. Has Connell got any mates? get them on too.

17? he was quality. He has a great future.

Its important that Parky keeps this same team for next few matches, and let them get used to it. This is a huge improvement on the last game I saw. Parky`s doing a good job, they are becoming a championship side. Trouble is they get relegated before they can do it

Move little up to forward midfield for last bit of game, take off a tired player and bring defender for where little left. I bet Littles a tidy attacker, in fact I know he is.

Aye, I should, I usually listen on radio and didnt know his name early on, and was going off players numbers. You are right.

I agree number 2 looks happier in forward midfield. Change his position now and swap one out for a defender.

They need a defence trainer who knows what hes doing and to train the defenders on their own all the time. Them mistakes they are making are simple to rectify and its not happening.

I agree, Bolton has a lot of good players and they arent gelling or performing to anywhere near their capabilities. But there were many occasions up front in that half where they showed what they are capable of. This team needs time. It will start happening. There doesnt seem to be a Captain either. This team could be very good.

No, but I should start. The defenders arent good, I mean midfield and forward they look good,the back 4 is dire and the number 2 is so out of position a lot of the time.

The Bolton players seem mostly good players to me.

Our defence has no discipline or organisation here. They cant go on like this. Whos the Captain? No one is bollocking people for clangers.

Aye, give him a go up front, he might be ace forward.

Our number 2 left that man on his own with loads of space again.

We are looking really good up front here and there. Calm and confident.

Who is our number 2? Dont play him again, not a defender.

Oh my Sainted Trousers
