2-1 us Taylor and Cahill

I Predict it being my last game for some time (fcuk um)

 

And mine.

And mine.

 

Why?

Reality....

 

 

For some reason when we come up against clubs on a poor run, they always seem to beat us (well ever since Megson joined us).

 

Plus we will probably have a very deep defence and more than likely have 1 striker (elmander) with Kev Davies out of place in a mid-field role (going off other matches where teams were ona poor run).

 

Therefore I am expecting probably the 2nd most boring bolton game of the season (last weeks before THE most boring of all season) and expect Villa will get a very late (injury time) winner.

 

Bolton 0 Villa 1

 

 

HOPING....

 

That we do stuff the villains and have a good full game like we did for last 20 minutes against Chelsea.

 

Bolton 2 Villa 0

it was the way well before Megson but why let reallity stand in your way it's never stopped you before

Its been like that since the 60's

it was the way well before Megson but why let reallity stand in your way it's never stopped you before

 

I never said that it never happened before but it is happening more and more under Megson - why??? (the ratio does seem higher whilst Megson has been in charge - for the length of period he has been in charge)

 

But there again reality (and plain hard not difficult to find facts) seems to be a concept that by-passes you every minute of the day!

Let's see your stats

 

I reckon even Sluffy couldn't produce stats to prove or disprove

lets see your stats to dis-prove it (if you think you are that confident that I cannot produce the goods!) - in other words double dare (if you want to play childish games)

 

 

EDIT: I was a bit harsh above - apologies but do you or I actually ahve the tiome to sift through decades worth of records to either prove or disprove a statement.

 

It is a statement of heart felt opinion - this is were we all differ as we all have different opinions. So does one have to be proven right or wrong, does one have to try to embarrase another for fun (which in threads you try vto do with many people).

 

Are you really that brave behind a computer screen and could you say that to a person face to face

 

Take it as an opinion and live and let live. You are only here for a short time, so why waste it trying to belittle others?

Ever since ive watched Bolton weve always been the type of team thats more likely to stop a team on a good run rather than beat a team in a slump. Im not sure why it is though

2-2 draw , Taylor and Kevin Davies to score for us.

Ok but in reality we have not beaten any team that have been half decent all season. In reality only West Brom have lost more games than us. Fulham had not won an away game all season until they came to our place and then managed more goals here than in their last fourteen away games combined. We have won one of our last six.Have we really improved that much since last season or are we just bumping along under Mr Megson? We will get another clue on Saturday.

We are bumping along, but in a foward motion

Watch this space. This one's got 6-2 to Bolton all over it!

Why?

 

I'll be on my jollies for last 2 back-to-back homes and I can't afford any away games.

I have a problem with this. Define 'half decent'? The only way I can think of is to look at the table today and look at the 'decent' half of it (i.e. top half). Without doing an in depth analysis, I can think of a 3-2 win over Spurs; a 2-0 win over Man City and a 2-1 win over West Ham.

 

That is reality.

If you'd been to those matches you'd know that Man CIty were absolute garbage on the day and Tottenham's defence was shocking as it usually is at the Reebok.They were definitely not good sides that were beaten.

West ham were better than those two and are the nearest to a half decent side Megson has beaten this season

But did you see West Ham's performance when they lost at home to us?half decent is not a phrase that would sum up their performance that day.

Yes, I am, clever clogs

I really don't know with this one.

 

Every time I think we are on a bit of a run we lose. Likewise, we seem to pull something out of the bag when we least expect it.

 

Heart: 2-0

 

Head: 0-2

Sadly, not been this season. This looks like being one of only three seasons where I have not attended at least a few games since 1988.

 

Saw all three live on Foxtel though. Are you incapable of considering that the oppositin may heve been sh1t because that is what we forced them to be?

 

Seems that you are just another negative fooker to me who either stays quiet when we do owt good or finds an excuse like 'only because the opposition were sh1t'.

 

Nearly forgot - Saturdays match has draw written all over it.

Even though I am nervous given our ability to play shiite in any game for no apparent reason, this one seems to have 1-1 or 2-2 all over it. I'll go for the 2-2.

5-0, Elamander 4, AOB 1. Megson to resign as our support is a fucking disgrace.

I have a feeling we will get drubbed, with the squad/team already believing that we are safe from relegation

 

Bolton 0: Villa 4

You can only beat the that is on the field with you

That's true, but it was Megson's fault that City & Spurs were shit. We won in spite of his appalling tactics, not because of them. Have you forgotten the rule?

Sorry Traf, I was trying to apply some logic. I will not let it happen again
