Brockbanks head went, he wasn't the only one but they targeted that side, just looked like he didn't want to be on the pitch. 

Seems i'm the only Kachunga fan...

You're not. I'm a fan of any player while they're wearing a Bolton shirt.

Sarc and Sheehan don’t go together 

[Biggish Dave]

Sorry lads and lasses going to Plymouth but I last saw us win live away from home at WBA in the championship. Think I’m 21 or 22 games in now since that day

To the next game... Or you can wallow and dwell on every defeat like the entire existence of the club depended on it. 

Out of interest, where are you "moving on to" by only ever mentioning every single loss? Do you want Evatt sacked? The owners to borrow millions so he can buy better players? What do you think the reaction should be every time we lose a game?

It really depends how passionate you are? No, i dont want Evatt sacked, and have never said that, nor do i want to go down the route of borrowing millions, but, by the same token, we have just lost 4-0 at home to Wigan, so, perhaps, Bolton are not for you!

We no composure on the ball, even when Sarce win the ball and a simple pass to Dapo it was played behind him. Sarce and Sheehan woeful today. Felt sorry for Brockbank the game just seemed too big for him. 
 

I know Evatt has a style he wants to play but Bakayoko was winning lots of headers, sets up Sarce for the chance that hit the bar, then subs him. 
 

Bakayoko was having a bit of a nightmare, aside from the header to Sarce and winning 2 headers before his assist for Wigan.  I like having him on the pitch because it gives us some physicality and an out ball, ,and he has goalscoring potential, but he's no more a right midfielder than Brockbank/Jones were left wingers last season.  Centre forward (with or without Doyle) or nowhere for me, because he's a liability when asked to defend, an accident waiting to happen.  Round pegs in round holes please, Baka is an attacker.

I think that was my point. If we have a giant up front winning headers why not have a plan b that lets us use that ? Instead we shuffled the deck chairs

Harry wasn't helped by Santos though. Seemed like time after time he gave Harry a short ball on the line only for the winger to be on him.

Santos only had three options today. Short ball to Harry, back to Dixon or the long diagonal ball to left wing.

[frank_spencer]

Lost track in the first half of the number of times Brockbank had the ball with the only option open to him was a ball back to Santos. Baka wasn't showing down the line and Sheehan and Sarcevic didn't make any movement.

[Rudy]

Baka ain’t a winger either

It’s not the first time either.

That isn’t him saying it though is it; that’s Richardson’s reaction to what he’s been told Evatt said 

Iles had confirmed what Evatt actually said on Twitter tonight

So what do you think should happen every time we lose?

[Biggish Dave]

For me, when Ameaechi (sp) is fit, I reckon Baka starts up top. Until then, I reckon Evatt tries to get a tune out of Doyle.

Not sure why I think that, maybe the wine, but I just feel Evatt thinks the dynamic of the team changes with 2 tricky wingers who can cut in and crack goals from outside the box.

I could very easily be chatting shit again though

It may take a little while because I reckon they are going up this season. 

Nobody knows who will finish top 2.  Carlisle were top at Christmas last season and when we went up they weren't even considered rivals.  Forest Green were nailed on at one point, then Tranmere.  Its lower division football, anyone can beat anyone and the likes of MKD, Sheff Wed, Pompey, Plymouth, Wycombe, Rotherham, Oxford are as good as Wigan and it all changes anyway in the transfer window.

No they weren't...imo, tbh these were decent today, they looked on it, big side, played the percentages better and fully deserved their 0-4. Yeah we didn't have our best 11, but it's a squad game and the players that came in didn't do themselves justice, and some of the others were off form today, it wasn't just a bad day at the office, we we're well and truly beaten, we have to accept that, Ian Evatt also has to accept it.

Nailed it

Outclassed to a man, including the manager. 

Captain needs to sort himself out, was woeful again. Felt bad for Brockbank, should never have exposed him so badly with Bakayoko being his only support. Was like back in the day when we had Mears and Mark Davies on that side.

Brockbank is not upto this standard.  Simple as

Men against Boys, if that idiot Evatt hadn't spent most of the first half berating the 4th official rather than watching his players and trying to figure things out we may have had a chance.

How do people think we will finish in the top half of the league with performances like that is beyond me.

Make the most of tonight

I've had enough

Going forward, Sbeehan generally sees a pass and can create openings. Sarc perhaps more likely to get on the end of chances. I don't see goals scored being reduced by one of them not playing, especially if the opposition is causing all the attacking problems.

I like Sheehan but if he creates an opening, who scores?  I'm struggling to remember any assists this season, not because he can't create, but we don't have a scorer to convert them enough.  Our "assists" are more likely to be 5 yard passes to Dapo who curls it in from 20 yards, not exactly put on a plate.

An ALF type striker would bang a hatful with Sheehan behind him
