Neil fucking Lennon you fucking deserved to lose today.

Learn from you're fucking mistakes after today

 

2-1 sitting pretty. Almost made it 3-1 twice. Boom you step in to fuck everything up.

Vela to midfield janko to right back. Feeney up front. Next minute 3-2 down.

 

One of the most ridiculous tactically changes in boltons history.

Completely agree , yes they were creating chances but we could have also and should have made it 4-1 le fondre had two very good chances, if Lennon was worries about anya getting in behind vela all he had to do was drop janko in deeper and feeney other side and double up. Going to a diamond we took all the width and everything good we had out of the game.

We didn't lose today because of a tactical decision. We lost because we didn't take our chances and they did. Also because in injury time Danns decided to drop off instead of closing the man down leading to the break that they scored from.

 

Feeney going up front led to a couple of decent chances for us. Watford went balls out with 3 attacking subs and we weren't good enough at any point to shut up shop and stop them playing through us.

 

We should have killed the game off, didn't, made too many mistakes but ultimately were outclasses by a team with loads of potential goalscorers. They are a far better team than us and we gave them a game.

Learning curve for Lennon and the players. If he'd have kept it as it was - people would have been moaning that Lennon didn't spot the fact that Vela was getting skinned.

 

Sometimes you've just got to hold your hands up and say you came out on the wrong end of a sensational game of football.

Wahey! I bet you were chomping at the bit for us to get beat at home so you could spout this sort of shite.

Danns picks up the rebound instead of pulling back they rhen get the ball and they equalise.

The team have stepped up a gear in pace but danns has gone in reverse

Was poor on the final goal, but not the only one. Wheater was exposed today time and again. Vela was roasted. Ream was ball watching on their last goal.

 

Danns has been the mainstay of our midfield all season. Hard to be too critical, he's not getting much help in there.

Great game and i am actually enjoying watching us again, but Lennon should have created to their subs by bringing on Eidur a lot sooner than he did just to hold the ball up more and stop it pinging around. 

 

Vela looked a bit lost at times at full back but I am more and more impressed with our front line.

 

Just hope we dont crumble after this and end up in the shite at the end of the season.

Some moaning bastards. Watford are a decent team and it was a great game to watch. Sure we got done by not having a specialist right back. Danns got caught in possession a few times etc but I enjoyed seeing us have a go.

 

We are not far away from being a decent team - didn't think I'd say that back in September

Analyse it as many times as you want but I can't be added

 

What a great 2 hours of entertainment

 

And full marks to Watford for their part in it

 

If you can't enjoy that set to a backdrop of us not going up and not going down you should give it up

Too gung ho and naïve at 3-3, once we'd got back to getting something we richly deserved out of the game we should have kept the door shut. Fantastic game though, they completely went for it after half time, all their attackers on for over half an hour.

 

Golden chances to make it 3-1, but even then no guarantees we'd have seen it out. We went toe to toe with a tremendous attacking team, played some great football and scored some brilliant goals. They'd only one way of playing, but, at the moment, with the players available, so have we by the looks of it. It would have been enough to have blown away plenty of other teams in this League today.

 

Wasn't sure about the switch of Janko and Vela, didn't work, but not many other options on the bench. Danns has got a really tough job at the moment, gets a lot of risky balls to deal with, gets ambushed by the opposition and has no other deeper midfielder to help him out. Pratley was a big miss in that second half and for me is a big reason why we're exciting going forward but miles too open when we lose it.

 

Not too despondent though, brilliant entertainment and a pleasure to watch us now, not the mind-numbing chore of the Freedman 'era'
