    When Rioch came to Bolton in 1992 we won three of our first give games then drew 1 and lost 5 of the next six. A very similar thing happened when Big Sam arrived in 1999. It is very early days and SS

    For those slagging off SS, you are barking up the wrong tree. We can only even get in to the foothills of judging the guy after he has had a transfer window. He has been dealt a talented but very one-

    Previously thought a tinker and a 2/3 signings would sort the job but think Schumacher needs to break this team up, for me the only player mentally tough enough to cope is Dempsey…. Any other player i

Weve lost 16 games, more than our first season back in league one when we got promoted, and spent fuckin millions on wank! Players never replaced with better, MJ Williams, Dapo, Kieron Lee, Bod, Charles, even Jerome!  Yep, its history, but the truth.

Probably told the players put it on them from the start and these lot will fold he knows the lot of them 

Didn't watch it but how did Santos do?

First to hold my hands up when I’m wrong. Completely misread today and seems the players did too. 

I’ve a lot of thoughts on it but I’ll probably post tomorrow when things are less raw.

What I will say. SS has learnt a lot about his squad today and last Tuesday. 

Wherever we are next season, I think these two games might act as watershed moments for a lot of players. 

Oh you weren't wrong about anything. 

You'd think we were favourites today.

But we seem to have a history of giving struggling teams a leg up.

Just a bit of gallows humour on my part, it's all I've got right now 👍

Looked like he as checked out pretty much summed is season up . I think he as already got a club lined up just going through the motions want out

What, the fact professional footballers can only play in one single way? Bollocks

Have a listen back to Gary Neville's comments after the MCR derby. Players these days are over coached robots, 'he's this but he's not that'. That squad was recruited to do specific things in a specific way, with any question about whether they had the mental and physical bollocks being disregarded. 

No new manager is going to come in and I) be able to cajole those bollocks into them if they aren't there and ii) be able to get them all to play a way and do different things that are alien to them

Evatt was right in a way that bringing someone else wouldn't make any difference, it won't, this squad are a hugely expensive, piss weak shambles and SS's biggest problem for next season will be being stuck with two thirds of them because of previous bad decisions. 

Evatt was right. Piss weak minded players. Thing is was it was him that signed them and screwed us.

Major surgery needed in the summer. 

I'd have Morley in centre mid. Collins, who had credit and will be a great player in a solid team, on the left of a front 3. 

The rest for me, up for grabs! 

Humphreys and Jalo is everything we don't have, drive, pace (jalo), strength (humphreys) a nice blend. 

We're in desperate need of players that compete when a game isn't handed on a plate. Our tough guy mcatee is a charlatan. An arm waver and the only professional footballer I've watched that can't jump.

Time for a Chablis. And 3-2 turnaround 😆

Spot on about Jalo and Humphreys. They ripped us apart in that first 35 mins. Why can other teams get these stronger players and we can't?

Tbh Barnsley looked better than us all over the park and I'd have a lot of their players over ours, no idea how they're so low in the table.

That really is a shocking indictment of the last few years

As a performance it couldn't have been any worse. Hammered by a mid table team who hadn't won in 7 matches. Morley, TuTu and possibly Murphy could be out for the season. Another loss and confidence at rock bottom. Santos and Jones playing with no passion and both lacking fitness and can't wait to jump ship in the summer.  Lolos, Dempsey and Forino the only ones who had any fight and passion to stand up to a team of overly physical shit houses that get away with these tactics week after week with the poor refs in this league.

If wouldn't know where SS should start preparing for the next match. I guess it's to see if he's a full eleven fit players available.

No point going last 2 games hope there not planning on doing the lap of honour this year 

Last 4 games. There's 2 away games too, if you know what they are.

"They're"

And I've had about 10 pints in Barnsley 

I don't think you'll be missed, so don't worry.

Fk em... I'd get a provisional list pinned up first thing Monday morning... big clear out needed.

We are now paying for doing nowt at Christmas, you don't solve issues like ours by double yoga sessions

He has been dealt a talented but very one-dimensional squad. I think he is cut from a very different cloth to Evatt and we will start seeing that from the soon in to next season. 

None of that is consolation to the 3000 who turned out today and watched a lame performance from the current squad. There are one or two on run-down period in there. They know they are going.

I agree to a certain extent mate, but, transfer window? where the fuck is our money coming from to sign better players? Just lost 11 million, think the million pound signings will be a thing of the past!

Spotted him at half time and he was limping quite heavily 

It did look like a member of staff went towards the tunnel as he came off

What happened in the stands? One minute everyone's shouting for a medical emergency, next minute bolton fans scrapping eachother wand getting thrown down the steps by stewards, might be wrong, but it looked deservedly so from afar

Shoemakers out of his depth, bigger bingo machine than evatt, doesn't seem to have a favoured formation, yes I know they're not "his" players but fuckinell, we've regressed.

They picked the wrong scouser for the job, the correct ones team drew with Reading today

Disappointing from you.

It comes across as if you've been chomping at the bit to make this post as the only real dissenter of SS being appointed

We are on target to get fewer points than we did in 21/22, £4m plus later

Absolutely horrendous, nothing more to say.

I don't know what was worse, the football in front of me or the absolute brain-dead scum of the earth individuals stood right behind me, saying hideous things to the stewards/ball boys.

Thinking they're big and hard because they can swear and had a few pints. Grow up you uneducated scummy twerps.

Not a pleasant experience.

 

Just heard Schumacher interview on radio manc.......  told players show me what you are about in these 4 games if you want to be here next season.

Also he was clutching at straws about the 4 games left.
