the circumstances late in yesterdays game weren't normal though

 

they had nowt to lose

 

we kept players back cos they left em up

 

id have had no problem with us taking the chance of leaving them with 5 against 2, but its not as though we had 5 marking nobody

Posted

Surely if we attacked though they'd be obliged to mark those men or they'd be overrun, otherwise everyone would leave five upfront all the time.

 

 

If you are winning with 2 mins left you don't pile everyone forward. I'm pretty sure every other team would have done the same.

Free kick on the edge of their box we've got nothing to play for besides the glory of midtable. Just have a go. It's so cautious. We invite teams to attack us and play football, as I said we were unlucky with not taking chances but we make poor teams look good against us and ultimately get punished for it on a fairly regular basis.

Like I've told you all Super Dougie was looking 8 or 9 moves ahead of everyone else but the players tend to think 1 move behind, so it's not his fault and that's why I have confidence that he will sign players who are on the same wavelength this week as promised.

 

In Super Dougie we trust.

There really needs to be a prize for super-positivity

Fuck that. We are going down next season. I'm only going to post when we lose, and then just post "told you so".

Me too

 

Everything's shit and I said it first back in 2009.

 

So I'm king of this playground.

Embarrassed to be a Bolton fan in WSL when upwards of 50 were applauding their equaliser.

 

Can you imaging them doing the same at Saint Andrews?

 

Of course they fucking wouldn't.

 

Shit end to a joke of a season.

 

That chimp has to go.

12 games next season I feel a plan coming on.

did i just read homo analysing a defenders performance based on 2 clips of conceded goals?

 

let me tell you something, keepers look shit on a goals against reel...

Slow news now there's no footy.

 

Oh and I did actually think it through the game too.

what would you suggest? Maybe throw a few bricks at them? I sit fairly close to the fence between wsl and the away supporters. I can sit there because my head isn't still in the 1970s. Where were you? ESL well away from where my over reaction to their equaliser would affect you and your family?

Think that position is already filled, rammed full, over subscribed, fit to burst

he was stood behind you, actually

 

ready to take on the zulus

 

 

 

i actually clapped when they scored, it was more as a reaction to the joy of fellow football fans in a game that didnt matter to me

Nail on the head.

 

I was jealous of them yesterday, would have fucking loved the tables to have been turned and it be us celebrating like that. The whole ground applauded them off the pitch and fair play.

 

Anyone embarrassed needs to give their head a wobble.

My thoughts too. Don't get the bitterness

And the fact that we'd been having a bit of banter, light hearted of course, with a guy who happens to be The Wanderer's local landlord and I'd already managed to negotiate free beer for the Rochdale whites meant there wasn't much scope for hatred.

I clapped, I thought after Blackpool embarrassed themselves last year it showed a touch of class. More to the point I thought they'd set the ground on fire if they lost. There was a skinhead with his face painted blue who looked ready to eat someone if they went down. Told a copper outside Birmingham had equalised he said thank god for tthat.

He kept up his end of the deal. :) couple of free pints watching Sunderland win. Not a bad afternoon.

 

Off to the pub again in an hour wonder if I'll get some more free drinks.

I was impressed with their support. They never got on the teams back and only went quiet for a few minutes before the end, plus the celebration when they equalised was brilliant

I understand that it pisses people off that we aren't challenging but fook me let's have some realism.

 

Realism for most teams in the Championship doesn't involve spending the sort of budget that Dougie has had, or bringing in the number of players that he's been able to.
