Dion Charles is relentless, he chases everything, you’d hate to play against him.

Guys like you who put in the miles deserve days like this. Even if it's not all the time!

Superb first half. Shame no goals second half but will take a clean sheet any day of the week 

[ianofcleveleys]

Really encouraging result and performance again, great to see Vic and Dion on score sheet and working well together. 

Starting on front foot and scoring first is our biggest evolution so far on last season, makes the whole game much easier and takes all the time wasting and shithousery out of the equation.

Another marker laid. Beautiful. We're absolute beasts with a large side order of sexy sweetness......haven't been this confident since 97/98.

Team looks good. Squad looks hungry. Winning 3-0 at grounds we traditionally piss around at is great signs. 

Hopefully we carry on, I reckon we. Have transitioned from a top 6 team to a top 3 team, they're hungry, young and confident.

Great days to be a Bolton fan, wouldn't rule out a good cup run either. Hopefully Wrexham go out early so we've half a chance of being noticed by the BBC.

Victor looks like he's done nothing but bench press for six weeks. He'll bag loads, so will Dion and I've got Dan down for 10+

Great first  half. We could have had half a dozen, and a great save from the keeper.

Top marks to all those who went.

[Lt. Aldo Raine]

One thing we've quietly addressed over the last few transfer windows is the team's height and physicality

The further up the pyramid we go, the bigger and stronger the players are, and I remember watching us the season before last and thinking we're far too small, but we've now got some right units milling about for us

It can only be a good thing

I think the biggest improvements are, as you say the front 2 scoring (before October) and the goals from set pieces. But maybe it’s too early to say we are starting on front foot more than last season, we did exactly the same last season in the first 2 (tougher) games. And if the cup is counted, scored more in the first 3. Early days, but 2 home wins this week would be a massive statement.

[marple whites]

All round professional performance.

never looked in danger.

good to keep clean sheet, great save Baxter second half.

dempsey, Charles and back 4 very good.

winning at places like that well, is a sign things are starting to come together

gutted I only saw it on I follow 

[Ani]

Just got back. 
 

Train delays on way back, Leeds fans being real wankers singing racists shit, full 'Zigger Zigger' tbf other Leeds fans told them to stop. 
 

Very unhappy bunch they are Gnotto refusing to play. So apparently should 'fuck back off to Rwanda' 

[Horwich]

Geeat win after losing at against em last season.

Alot more tougher games to come.

👍

Vic didn’t score, but i see what you’re saying.

A big plus for me is how we’ve discovered how to score from set pieces - a nice addition to our game.

The lads look very confident & Rico looks unbeatable.

Onwards & upwards.

Just back, & this was just as good & just as emphatic as last Saturday.

Santos & Iredale look too good for this division, Dempsey, Sheehan & Morley completely dominated midfield, Charles & Vic are beginning to show an understanding as well as being a constant pain to their defenders & all the subs kept up the standard.

Very hard to pick a MOTM, they were all good, but i'll go for Sheehan.....if he misplaced a pass or lost possession, I didn't see it.

It's too soon to go overboard & we haven't played anyone decent yet, but this squad is looking like the real deal for this division. EIEIEIfuckingO.

Superb first half today.

Second half was good game management.

Bring on the cods.

When were we last top of this league?

When did we last win first 2 games of season?

When did we last not concede 1st 3 competitive games of season?

When were we last 3-0 up away from home?

Hopefully this and more "best since" questions can be asked after the Fleetwood game.

 

We must have been near the top of the Championship after taking 10 points from our opening four games in 2018/19. After that we won only once again before Boxing Day and it became one of the most miserable seasons I can remember.

Correct answer is probably a couple of seasons earlier than that, when we were in L1 with Parky. We won the first four and went undefeated in seven.

[Leyther_Matt]

Sounded a great win and very much one we’ve struggled with previously. Hope it’s a sign of things to come. Hope it was a good day for all those who went (I lost count of how many BWFC tops and bucket hats I saw at Wembley for the rugby)

[bolty58]

Great start to the season. Hopefully the 10 match assessment deadline we set will make for some fine reading.

Now then, this terrible pre season we had..  Wrist Slashers Anonymous must be desperately seeking another catalyst.

No.

[desperado]

Well what a day!

Perfect first away game. Great win, great performance, met loads from here, trains ran well, Cheltenham fans are a nice bunch - very complimentary about us.

We’re absolutely miles from it yet, but loved @Biggish Dave’s 96/97 feel, why not have the belief that something magic like that can happen again? 

COYFWM 👏

[radcliffe white]

I predicted a gillingham type away win and it was exactly that really enjoyable watch

Cheltenham is a belting place and is one of my favourite away days in recent years and the ground is a nice little set up

No matter how often I look I cannot make out what happened for that second goal.
