Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted October 1, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted October 1, 2022 Solid performance, and a bit frustrating at times. First half we didn't find it easy to open them up, and when we did we didn't make the most of our chances. Second half we created more, clear cut chances, and again squandered some. At 1-0 I was wary as it seemed they might nick something having created very little. Fortunately the second secured the points, and that one chance you felt might come their way was brilliantly saved by Trafford. Defence was again solid and Johnston man of the match for me. Kachunga worked hard, chased some balls down, but to no great effect. He fell inndirect debits fornthe penalty which from wherewe were looked a shite dive. Can only assume the lino saw a tug. Also a lack of understanding at times with Charles- the sitter he put across the goal for EK wasn't read and consequently missed. Lincoln were another team trying to fight us and knock us off our stride, but we stood up to it well. Throughly deserved, if unspectacular victory.

paulhanley Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Enjoyed the game. Agree with Evatt. We just lack that final detail sometimes. Over-elaboration or poor control means we don't take as many chances as we should. Thankfully teams have so much trouble getting the ball off us that they can't build a head of steam up. Overall we're in a really good place with the fixtures we've ticked off and the ones to come. Can only see us improving too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leyther_Matt Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Great result. Charles was really in the mood today, was mad seeing us try the little tricks and whatnot at 1-0 that would normally be reserved for a 4-0. Kachunga worked his nads off and overall was in credit but just didn’t manage that end product. Back three all excellent. Trafford tremendous in the one on one first half and the late save was a cracker. Thomason very good again, and I loved seeing him get in the face of one of the Lincoln players after (another) dying swan act. Such a progression from the meek young kid who first came in.

auckland_bwfc Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Another good three points in the bag, beat what we had to. Never doubted we'd score eventually, not quite the "pazzaz" (yet) of the free flowing 96/97 promotion team but they're all going the same direction, which is the same as management, the board and most importantly us fans. Feels great to be part of a working beast again. Options off the bench are second to nobody at this level, it'll count, come May 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burndens Bogs Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Katchunga did ok, but i still find it hard to get my head around how he’s keeping Dapo out of the starting X1. Dapo makes things happen, even on an off day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen, i want everyone to do well for Bolton, and, yes, Kachunga does work hard, i get that, but, as a striker 2 goals in 40 league games isnt productive enough for a striker. His career record of 59 league goals since 2009 doesnt tell lies! Bod as 7 from 27! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc505 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Great win. First 3 of 9 points this week. The kind of game you wish you heard about whilst abroad a few pints deep instead of actually attending though 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not made any ground on those above us. Next 2 away games we can hopefully rectify that and by the time we play Barnsley we'll be dreaming of the automatics! Gained 3 on Portsmouth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marple whites Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Good solid performance. they looked dangerous early on, but we should be killing these games off earlier as never know what might happen at 1-0. 2 really good saves from traff. thought mj was magnificent today as was Charles. options off the bench are brilliant. need at least 4 points from these next 2 away games.

barrycowdrill Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 As solid a 3 points you’ll see. Never really got out of 2nd gear but never had to. Exactly the types of 3 points you need if you expect to be challenging flat crowd, controlled but pretty flat performance but grinded a win out 2nd goal just killed the game and avoided the inevitable nervy finish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted October 1, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted October 1, 2022 I thought that was as comfortable a game as it could be given the score and timing of the 2nd goal. Lincoln never looked like scoring until the 94th minute. Plenty of 7/10 performances. Nobody outstanding, just solid. EIEIEIO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted October 1, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted October 1, 2022 Just seen sky's attempts at highlights. I know it wasn't the absolute best, but there were moments to justify more than this meagre offering. At least they do show that it was a stone wall penalty- couldn't see the shirt pull live, but clear as day on the highlights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomRepWanderer Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Comedy gold that throw in for our 2nd goal, they looked like a group of players that had just met, no fluency in their play, lots of stray passes, and with better final balls we could have had a cricket score today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deanu Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Always going to be difficult breaking sides down who come to park the bus from minute one, don't think any team beside Wednesday have come to have a go at us at our ground so it's the matter of staying patient & getting the first goal. Didn't think the pen was a foul, thought it was a clear dive from Kacha but then I thought there was decent shout when Dion skinned two players & got his arm pulled down when he got ahead of the defender. We played some nice, tidy football albeit not the most clear cut chances created, our bench is top class for this level though & was confident they'd kill them off with a bit of quality at the end. Class finish from Bod & very nice efficient play from Dapo too. Lets just keep going, keep racking them points up. COYWM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sums today up that On another day Lincoln grab an equaliser and we rue missed opportunities Hopefully JDB getting back to fitness will change that because for as strong as our attacking options are they aren't yet producing consistently If JDB can take some preasure off Charles maybe he'll relax and stop trying to do it all Anyway Highlight for me was that late save from Trafford, immense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
