Can we thrive under the Friday night lights in a pressure cooker of a 30k+ stadium against probably the best team in the league?

Probably not. It has wilting, 5-0 vibes this.

 

I know we’ve got to manage him but my god were a different level with Lee on the pitch. He just does everything right 

Opposite end that’s a pen 

Penalty that.

Should have been a pen for a push on dion that

I didn't think he caught him, but I've seen them given

VAR would have give that 

even these two muppets Said they got away with it Then 

I've got the sheff commentary on. They thought it was a pen. 

Charles has almost brought it on himself with allays looking for it. 

 

 

Robbed or not?

Almost worse than the pen decision was when he didn't pull it back after playing an advantage which wasn't an advantage. 

Winner form Kacha

Not a penalty for me. Watching on ifollow and it looked like Charles was expecting the defender to cut across him. The defender pulled his leg back at the last second, I didn't see any contact whatsoever. 

Kacha on SW goal incoming 

Dion played for the pen instead of getting a shot off. Bit disappointed with Shoretire's work rate and contribution so far - seems to be strolling instead of running around and demanding the ball

Excellent performance that. Totally dominated the second half.

A well earned point that , thought second half we played with a lot of confidence .

Very good point that. Looked ominous for 15 minutes or so after going 1 down but that was our most controlled performance for many weeks. 
 

didn’t create much but we managed the game and nullified them by some very good ball retention

Trafford solid, Santos a colossal, Sheehan very tidy and went about his work quietly with Lee intelligently everywhere as always 

Good contest and a good point

Good performance, particularly Trafford and Santos

2nd half was the best performance we've put in for about 7 games.

Hopefully thats the springboard.

Good performance that, much more like ourselves. 
 

 

Absolutely deserved that. Trafford and Santos were excellent and it was a fair result - they had the better chances but we had a pen claim. Above all we had a real good go at them and apart from the middle of the first half we were never second best. Great job.

Faith restored after some real jaded recent performances

Enjoyed that in the end. Good point - don't think we created enough to deserve 3 - but moved the ball around lovely. Much better than the past couple of weeks! 👍

Best we’ve played for a long time.

Considering the opposition we looked like a very composed away team.

Well done Bolton.

Great result.
