Thomasson broke a club record yesterday 

17th yellow of the season 

Be a few more to add on yet to no doubt 

Needs sorting that

That one was really frustrating, 2-0 up, although they were breaking they were only on halfway and others were getting back, didn't need to do it really.

A lot of our yellow cards though are for that type of soft foul or pull back, often because we've given the ball away easily or played a risky pass that puts someone in an awkward position. We don't get many for properly cleaning someone out or leaving a good marker on them

Ah the old religion causes war debate. Do people really believe without religion everyone will hold hands and get on great.

Most certainly not- they kick off over football!

A belief system that becomes so ingrained in the psyche that folk take leave of their senses though, is a potentially very dangerous thing though. 

Killing in the name of religion, and not having to take responsibility for it, as its on behalf of the big man upstairs, is anathema to me.

Anyway, that's in extremist, I suppose if players just want to thank their lord, and leave it there, then no harm done.

Do you trust her not to do it again? 

You know what a slag she is when Barnsley are about

That pic of the 5 black fellas with the blonde lass springs to mind :D

Dempsey got himself needlessly booked shortly after coming on.

Convinced they all talk and have something against us; Blackpool ref was a complete cheat

Going back to our Premiership days there was an article in tje Times where the Prem refs had a get together in a Lakes hotel. It said that they discussed trends, behaviours & newish rules, watched football videos.

The relevant bit was about how the watched a video of a match which, whilst not saying "Bolton", clearly was. Apparently they cheered at some of the more controversial decisions & bookings.

And yet this went unpunished 

 

It was a clear foul at the time and that just confirms it, and could have led to a very similar deflected goal to the one the same player got in the away game.  We had another dire ref but it was glossed over by comfortable scoreline.

I was impressed with that no 10 (Lankester) that fouled Sheehan, all game he looked to create and had a great left foot, good vision and a bit of bite and edge to his game.  Reminded me in style of play to Moritz from 10 years ago who had a bit of flair and scored a few.

Collins very unlucky not to finish with 2 goals and an assist, a bit of quality yesterday.  Maghoma too. 

Could see what Collins was trying to do first half, just not much came off for him, liked how he dropped in to get involved and knit play together, doing that seemed to increase his confidence, as, obviously, did his goal.

The irony of you having a Templar Knight as your avatar.. 

I know. It's superb isn't it.

Actually a leftover from our glorious RWC win in 2003. I'll ask Zico how to change it by PM. Not been able to for some reason.

Maybe you should practice what you preach some times.

 

The day I take advice from some Oxbridge moron will be the day I start to vote for socialism and stop eating meat.

2,000 years of immersion. An ancient method of controlling the masses.

The ignorant falling for the weasel words of an accomplished conman. What might have been without this?

A damn site more than 2,000 years Bolty.

Routine win Saturday. Cambridge were dreadful.

Here's hoping that Saturday was the upturn in results for the run-in and we put together a few wins. One tomorrow night would not be season-defining but would be a huge result and a real statement from us. Might just be the catalyst we need to kick on.
