If anyone has any friends and a 2 together railcard, fancy's MK Dons on the 8.15, back on 18.50 but hasn't yet booked, I have a spare couple of tickets for £48 for the pair.

I know it's stretching it a bit thinking many people will want to go but will give it a try anyway.

Cheers

You ignored me when I said hello. Agree with you on the seats. 

My apologises brain dead today

Fuck watching that shite even on TV. It’s fucking unbearable now watching us this season. The start was good fun club staying alive etc but it’s all worn off for me now. Bring on June 

Just getting home from the game. Utter garbage. Either the team’s not good enough for this league or the manager isn’t getting the performance out of them that we need to stay up. I think it’s the latter.

I watched the game on the telly, nearly fell asleep. Been offered a lift to Richmond for the AFC Wimbledon game, at one time I would have snatched his hand off, not anymore. This is just taking the piss. Roll on next season.

I wish Brian Clough was still around and had some interest in Bolton.

I spoke to Zach about 3 weeks ago at a Forest U23 game , when I mentioned that I'd like him back at Bolton , he said that he'd love to come back , but that the January rumours were a load of Bollocks .

It was gutting watching him playing amongst all Forest's kids , no other squad players were involved and to make it worse it wasn't even a league game , it was a  Notts senior cup match  , a competition for local non league sides that Forest have entered with their kids.

Zach played for 60 minutes  before being subbed and you could see how pissed off he was by that , after the game he told me in no uncertain terms what he thought of Forests treatment of him.

Makes the pain of defeat a lot easier to take when you're sat in your comfy living room with a few cans rather than in the cold stadium watching one of the hairy bikers kick off with other fans.

Was it the hairy guy kicking off or was it the other guy kicking if with the hairy guy? 

Either way it seemed like I was back at school when all the children couldn't wait to follow the argument in case it got to handbags. 

Embarrassing! 

Hope biggish made it back ok 

he was smoking at half time

Couldn't really follow what was happening in the video so the only person you could 100% say was being a dick was the person filming.

Is this season's massive elephant  that Parky would have had a far better go at keeping us up than these gobshites?

Should have been on from the start.

I’m genuinely worried we are looking at another drop next season. The club is a mess. We are beaten before we kick off every game. Tranmere aside (worst opposition I’ve seen) I don’t think we will win a game again this season.

Im worried we don’t seem to be selecting/starting players who will be here next season and in terms of bringing players in, well the moneyball stuff seemed to die off a few days after it was announced.

MK dons were crap and an average team would of picked them off with their play from the back policy. At half time it was abundantly obvious this had 1-0 MK dons written all over it. These lads have thrown the towel in.

My main wonder now is it all down to:

A) Hill

B ) Players being poor

C) The club is still rotten and more of the good work previous owners have done are still hanging over.

D) A combination of all of the above.

I suspect D) and I’m very worried about next season.

I'm certainly worried too but also retain some (probably unreasonable) hope that next season will be our lowest point and that we'll come out of it with a promotion by whatever means.

But, like you say, all the current evidence we have suggests more struggle and more strife.

I do wonder if Hill is really part of FV plans now for next season after the way results, mood around the club and his deteriorating attitude have gone. I know we're now in this social media cycle of zero patience with anyone but the tide on there has most definitely turned against Hill and you struggle to see how he'd turn that around now. Once an opinion snowballs on there and carries through to matches, the game is up rightly or (in my view) wrongly.

I'm glad we're not in a KA situation where you had a statement/rant every five minutes but once relegation is confirmed I hope they come out and really set out their hopes and plans for summer and 20/21.

I’m keeping positive as you don’t have to put much of a team out to be competitive in league one, and league 2 gonna be worse standard. Minimum requirement next year is the play offs.

I hold onto this too. We've seen from 2 seasons in L1 that even just a generally standard team with a sprinkling of 2-3 players (often loaned in from PL/Champ) with a bit of something can see you right.

Need to start all that from scratch though.

I watched last 10 minutes of Salford game yesterday and it was woeful, Colchester when they retrieved possession just kicked it as far as possible, last second ball came into Colchester box Salford lad had free header nearly flew over the..... stadium roof. If that’s what big money buys at this level it’s crazy. Even our current best 11 would be top 6 easily.

Finishing anything lower than 3rd will be the worst ever BWFC team in history. It’s deffo a minimum.

I genuinely fear another relegation as things stand. Loads of time to amend but from what I can see in the here and now we are in mega trouble.

As for a hitting rock bottom, I can count Multiple times this season we have hit new rock bottoms. 
 

Tranmere 5-0 (I appreciate this was kids but still a low)

Accrington 7-1

Losing to Rochdale 4 times in a season 

The collapse at Lincoln.

More worryingly than anger. People are losing interest at rapid rates.

I'd be inclined to agree, but not under this leadership. If he hasn't lost the dressing room he's definitely lost the fans. It's 6 months until we kick off in L2, can we really afford 6 months of anger, apathy and resentment before we even realistically kick another ball competitively?

Looking at the comments to that tweet it would appear that most of Bolton have witnessed him acting the twat at games.

He called our support at Birmingham ‘peasants’ one year which still makes me laugh. 
 

Going off the comments it seems many have had a row with him over the years.

@deane koontzbeat me to it ha

His mates seemed just as strange

 

It does look rather bleak right now and next season can’t come quickly enough.

I can’t see many of the players we have now sticking around. Which isn’t a bad thing, though I’m sure they’d perform much better in League 2. 

With the embargo it’s going to be a nightmare trying to get players tied down early so it’ll be another season of hoping a team of freebies and rejects can gel. With that in mind, I think even playoffs is a lofty aspiration for next year, I’d take midtable.

Things change quickly in football though, so hopefully the masterplan gets going in summer and we start building a team to be proud of. Hopefully KH gets binned off but I’ll fully understand if FV want to give him a proper go without all the bullshit that’s tainted this season. 

Gaffers words of wisdom:

’unfortunate to a certain degree’

’controlled the opponent without being in possession’

’performance   level reasonably happy, potential to build on’

’players hitting fatigue limits now’

’a lot if good effort and a great responsibility among the players’

’brave enough to keep putting that shirt on’

 

would any other manager in England think they could get away with spouting such crap and actually believe people would be taken in ? Total muppet.
