Re: Tooling up: The summer 2024 transfer thread
It seems to me, may be stating the obvious, that this season the first XI can beat most teams in league one, but a handful of key injuries and there are problems. The team against Barnsley seems to me to be pretty close to a first XI. I like what I've heard about the contracts being given to people ...

It's not easy to watch, is it. The silly fouls in the dying moments of each half. Keeping it exciting!
How do yellow cards work? Do you get suspended for the final with two in the two legs?

Re: Womens football
At the weekend I saw Ajax against Feyenord women, it's a Klassiker so they played in the Johan Cruyff arena. Decent crowd. They seem to put blocks on sale until they sell out, then put more blocks on. It was just the lower tier and the ends were empty. Ten euros for adults. I get why they wouldn't w...

Re: Murder on the Orient Express. Home to Leyton O, Sat 23rd Dec, 15:00
I watched one game from the armchair, it was a loss and I was particularly irked at Dempsey. Trotting around, not wanting the ball. Then, a while later it turns out he was injured, I think, so he's actually a hero. From my armchair, I have no idea what state any of the players are in for the game. I...

Re: The Politics Thread
One person's "breath of fresh air" is another person's "threat to democracy".
From my point of view, I couldn't care less about most of the policies, couldn't care less about who is at the top, it's the undermining of institutions and dismantling of democracy that I find troubling.

Re: Snog, Marry, Avoid: Summer 2023 Transfer Window
With the group of players there is at the moment, after having sat through the Wigan game, I'd want all new players to be combative. And start handing out protein shakes and gym passes, maybe.

Re: Snog, Marry, Avoid: Summer 2023 Transfer Window
Alex Neil's sat watching in the stands tonight. Wonder what he thought of the second yellow? Should we break out the conspiracy theories and say Dion got sent off so he didn't have to play Wigan and risk messing up his transfer? Watford and Stoke interested in Charles, apparently. I love a good con...

R Williams got a big up from Evatt in the Bolton News recently after he played in the last game of the season, I think. It's almost like the manager is managing the players. Very odd.

Re: Reconstruction time again: the summer 2018 transfer thread
Nugent is getting on a bit (33), being a sub is probably perfect for him. Not that I have any idea about if he's any good these days, or would go to Bolton.

Re: You can't buy character; but you can apparently get it for free.
Good to hear! Which players have there been recently who've had character? It seems like a while since they were a team of battlers.

Re: Reconstruction time again: the summer 2018 transfer thread
Well, that presumably means they're fairly sure about making signings. Looks like a bit of a shake up with only one senior forward, goalkeeper and a reduced midfield. Probably about time.

Re: Shaking like a leaf, oh no have I got Parkinsons'? Home to Forest 12:30 Sun 6th May 2018
Pretty much where I am, only, I actually think that relegation 'could' be a blessing, in that we'll be forced to get rid of most of these these shithouses and bring through the academy players. Too simplistic? Maybe, but can it get any worse? That's what I think every time (: It hasn't happened yet...

Re: We are (hopefully) staying up: the opposition
I think there are a lot more factors at play when it comes to attendances.

Shopping malls are now destinations for leis...
