Re: What were you doing ten years ago today? (9/11 thread)

I think that is one of the most haunting things about this particular atrocity. It unfolded live before our eyes. The first real event of this ilk that was covered by the 24/7 news channels. There wasn't any time to find the truth out, to dress it up, put whatever angle the corporation wanted on it ...

Re: Twitter Whites

Have always avoided "banter" with opposition fans until this weekend, but some of the garbage directed from "global" Man Utd fans towards SKD's wife and to BWFC in general was just uncalled for. "Banter" ensued.

Re: What were you doing ten years ago today? (9/11 thread)

Washing pots at the Reebok Stadium, as was my job at the time.

Heard about the first one going in. Assumed it was a bad accident. Was a while later til we heard about the second one and then we were all glued to whatever TV screen we could find, in horror.

Re: Corners

The tactic defending corners is backfiring big time.

All 11 men dragged in to within 8 yards of goal, so anything short, we're fecked defending. If we clear the ball, we're too slow to close down (see Barry's goal) and we have to defend another 2, 3 phases of play.

Re: Wanderers Vs Man U

LK, I hope you're right. Proper do. Because if we're not we're going to lose 3-2 at home to Norwich next week and Mr Cock Up will go to his guestroom to find the bedsheets are missing

Yeah outstanding. Missus kinda spoilt it by pointing out the actress wasn't in the next series, but was handled much, much better than I might have hoped

Re: Wanderers Vs Man U

I'm gonna have an attempt at going to bed and forgetting about the game. But not before I lay down everything shit about the performance They include: The fact when we defend a corner, all of our men are within 10 yards of the goal, so when we clear the ball, we've no chance of chasing, and if it go...

As long as that's the case, I'm comfortable

To think. We can get this chippy with fellow Bolton fans. Imagine how we're gonna be on Monday when we go back to workplaces full of plastic Mancs. feck

Re: Wanderers Vs Man U

I don't see the relevance on this result? We played the same formation in last two games and shipped 6 goals The teams in question have added well over £100M of talent to their squads since last season. Our net spend is virtually zero. That's the relevance. The gap is getting wider and no amount of...

Re: Wanderers Vs Man U

They are a top side. Defensively we were abysmal. Like against City we gifted then easy goals. Coyle got it wrong with Davies M he is not good enough all round in midfield for a game like this unless he has plenty of cover round him. Not sure why it wasn't Muamba and NRC? Robinson torn apart but Pe...

Re: Wanderers Vs Man U

Did a very accurate simulation of this game with my brother on fifa, it's going to finish 5-5. I can see half of that result being right Balls what a prophecy. A truly awful display, that merely consolidates what we've known for some time. The system isn't right, some of the key players aren't righ...

Re: Wanderers Vs Man U

I can see half of that result being right My worry is, I'm not sure how much of our defence we can shore up in time to give Man Utd a game. And I fear our inability to keep the ball will cause us to suffer. All they need to do is rock up with a 4-5-1 with a central midfield packed of the likes of An...
