  • Personally thinkw e need to get out of this attitude of  "were to good for this league", were not to good for any league.

  • We were a spin of the tombola away from the play-offs that season.   Dougie fucked it up with a bizarre team selection on the last day.

Leeds were lucky to beat Boro today. I doubt we'll be that lucky !!

Brighton, reading home, Blackburn away, Millwall home, Wigan away and Blackpool home I think are our next 6 games - we should get enough from that not to worry.

 

I do however worry about how many goals we leak and we've no midfield general

Boro and Bournemouth both lost today

 

Room in that top 2 for a team like us.

Today was awful

 

And I don't see us getting owt on Tuesday

 

But we aren't going down. Relax

ill go with that

Not going anywhere near down. Lenny will sort it out.

So many players out..

 

We're playing a centre mid at right back..

 

A centre back at left back

 

Loads of new players who haven't had chance to gel.

 

Our front line consists of a rookie two elder statesmen and someone brand new..

 

No wonder were struggling

 

Oh and today 2 key players went off.. Captain sent off and we had a 36 year old forward in defence...

Where are these doom mongers suddenly appearing from?

through choice

WE'RE TOO GOOD TO GO DOWN...............................................................................

Would going down be such a bad thing?

 

We'd go back to winning most weeks and there would be some cracking away trips

Leeds had a mom performance from the keeper. Do we even have a keeper for Tuesday?

Of all the things bolton fans are, arrogant is not one of them

I'm not sure anybody has that attitude. I think most would agree we are exactly where we deserve to be.

Yep. We deserved to be bottom when he took over and we are better off now but our away form means we deserve to be 18th.

They are always there. They just wait for what they perceive to be the right moment. Three wins on the bounce and they crawl away again..................and wait.

Dunno about anyone else but I got out of thinking that sometime ago

Your right they crawl back under the damp rock until it starts raining again then reappear to glorify in despair and negativity, how sad their lives must be.

With me, it isn't negativity at all. I still really like Neil Lennon. However he inherited 5 points from 11 games and has suffered from the same shit luck with injuries as his predecessors. So .... not negativity, just worry.

There is a difference between realism and negativity though.

 

There certainly are some negative ones on here but not automatically thinking that we will tear the league up next season is realism and not negative in my view.

 

Lennon had a good start, in my view we were never going to make playoffs, probably not top half but the fact he had a good run of games made plenty believe. No problem with that at all but now we have lost a few and the season is all but over a few people swing emotionally to the other end, we're going down attitude.

first 11 games, 5 points

 

in the return fixtures against those teams

 

i make it played 8, 8 points

 

still to go to bournemouth and boro and a home game v brighton

 

id take 11 from 11

 

overall, i make us 2 ppg v bottom half teams

Interesting, better than I thought.

 

I'd guess similar was true last season (maybe not 2ppg) fairly poor record against the top 8 to 10 but very strong against the bottom half. So if we actually start competing with the top teams we could be in for a decent season.

Our home games are crucial to making sure we stay up and with plenty to spare too. Most away games we have left are against decent teams and Wigan.

 

Home games are all winnable with Norwich the toughest on paper.

I wasn't aiming my comments at you. There's realism and there is negativity most on here know the difference.
