Matt Mills

Don't panic, we've not re-signed him.

He has retired from football...

Really suprised that we were the club he played most career games at.

RIP - He was shit

He wasn’t a bad player Imo

The King of the diagonal, or he thought he was, then King Beevers came along.

Kinell, us in the top tier used to duck when Mills hit a diagonal.

What?, you coffin dodgers up there can actually duck 😆

Duck a round certainly 😉

My main memory was how ‘whoopie do’ he looked at getting MOM against Wigan on TV like he was some kind of superstar.

Typical of players signed for big money in them days - did fuck all for us, done fuck all since and rinsed everyone in the process.

Hes retired because he’s shit and rich

You’d never make it up all them stairs, just stick to ground level.

Know your place.

I'm sure he retired mid-game early in his Bolton career

I can see steejay being a distance man 

Just now, Mr Grey said:

He's proving it at the moment with him knocking on 70 😁

Give him a head start and run backwards😀

Whippersnappers...

Respect please 👊

You’ll be asking me to bale you out when Barrow’s finest have you on your toes.

Will RUR2R be R2R up there? Not sure we’ll prize him out his arm chair

Ah but, he’s not missing a game next season.

Not sure if you’ve heard but he’s moved back to Worcester. 😁

You mean that place that’s even more difficult to get to Bolton than a 2 hour London-Manc train and a bone shaker over?

Season ticket and all! 🤣

His podcast with Burnden Aces was one of the worst, most misjudged woe-is-me pieces of horseshit that I've ever heard.

Took a wonderful amount of coin from us and many other clubs without the slightest bit of self-awareness. A thundering megacunt and I have absolutely cast his time at the club along with the other shithouses who turned out for us but didn't give a single, solitary shite.

Fuck him forever. The wanker.

Once read an online post from Leicester fan heartily thanking Bolton for taking not one but three of their overpaid, underperforming shithouses. Enabled them to push for promotion and ultimately of course the Premier League title.

Mills, Beckford and Danns.

We have always been good like that, nice to get some recognition though. :)

Tbf a few years ago they were moaning about signing our cast offs...

Yep cant wait; not sure where to get my ticket yet - Burnden Paddock or Lever End?

Looking forward to this race between you and Mr Grey; I will take on the winner 🙃

Mills and Beckford were 2 of the biggest disappointments in the last 30 years in terms of expectation compared to ability.  I had high hopes for both and cant hugely blame Coyle for signing Mills or DF for signing Beckford, I would probably have done the same.  Keith Andrews in the same era was similar, came from WBA, looked to be a shrewd signing, another huge let down that didnt appear to be break sweat once.  When you add the likes of Sordell hanging around post-Prem, what a sad era that was of watching players that you couldnt identify with.

One of Coyle’s most baffling signings around that time was Lonergan, who I’m sure cost >£1m.

He had already (wrongly) promoted Bogdan over Jussi in our last PL season, and then couldn’t decide who to stick in goal once he signed.

This is a man who picked Brian Jensen as the best ever GK he’s managed so I shouldn’t be surprised.

Aye, if one thing tells you all you need to know about that clueless prick, thats it
