Re: Plymouth match

According to BWFCI who must know SB & FV personally - we won't spend any money on quality players, they won't spend more money on higher wages as along with Evatt they want to do it on the cheap & continue to pay peanuts. Yep, you must be right and clearly they've got shit loads of dosh hanging aro...

Re: Plymouth match

I mean for me the January shopping list is getting longer and longer… two full backs, an MJ clone and a striker… According to BWFCI who must know SB & FV personally - we won't spend any money on quality players, they won't spend more money on higher wages as along with Evatt they want to do it on t...

Re: Plymouth match

I'll say it again we are so predictable to play against, teams in League 1 have worked us out - basically stop Dapo playing and you'll win, we move the ball about so slowly - there is absolutely no tempo or urgency by anyone, its all so ponderous and ineffective and we have no goal threat, we don't ...

Re: Plymouth match

Hugely missing Sarce in midfield. Massively. There is no question anymore. When he’s fit he plays. As does Lee. And MJ. No question. Early season Sheehan gets in my squad. Current season Sheehan definitely not looking up to it. Same goes for Bakayoko. I suspect there's a lack of movement and abilit...

Re: Plymouth match

Dixon, Brockbank, Gordon, Baptiste, Isgrove, Bakayoko are League 2 players at best - its no wonder we are shite, there is a complete lack of quality & professionalism in this team. This level of performance is not acceptable by any Bolton team IMO Not sure Dixon’s done much wrong, tbh. Not necessar...

Re: Plymouth match

What utter abysmal defending for both goals, amateur yet again - who is coaching these defenders. Why the hell do we always concede 1st and come out & play shite for the 1st 15-20 mins of games. The promotion bounce is well & truly over, its back to the absolute shite of the 1st half of last season....

Re: Plymouth match

Unfortunately until we get some better players in during the next transfer window I think that we will continue to struggle as we have over the past few games against teams in the top half of the table, when we beat the L/pool U21's Evatt was saying what a strong squad he has and that he can almost ...

Re: Bolton v the 3.14159265359....eaters 16-10-21

Our football is so predicable, we have no plan B or plan C. Our tactic is pass sideways, sideways, then sideways again, pass back to the keeper - then repeat the same thing several times, then try a long diagonal pass to Dapo and repeat, there was no movement, no one trying to overlap everything was...

Re: Bolton v the 3.14159265359....eaters 16-10-21

We are weak & lack physicality all over the pitch and we get bullied easily - very naive as a team. Personally I thought Wigan didn't really need to get out of 1st gear it was that easy to play against us yesterday.

Re: Bolton v the 3.14159265359....eaters 16-10-21

Well that were feckin shite 2nd best all over the park. We looked outnumbered in every area of the pitch and several players had stinkers. In a derby, in front of what will probably be our biggest crowd of the season. Christ, I'm peed off. This, it was an awful performance men against boys IMO - we...

Re: When Saturday comes, it's Wednesday. V.The Owls Sat,09/10/21.

However frustrating yesterday was, we will still comfortably finish mid table which is absolutely fine for me this season. We need at least another 3 or 4 better quality players to get out of league 1. The football is the best that we have seen for many a year, we just don't have the quality to win ...

Gutted. I was sure we'd win that... :( TD we should have done & would have done if we would have had a CF who had an ounce of composure in front of goal, unfortunately though we don't have any of those, swap Doyle for their No9 and we would have won today. I feel sorry for the fans who travelled, a...

Re: When Saturday comes, it's Wednesday. V.The Owls Sat,09/10/21.

61% possession / 1 shot on target, its isn't rocket science is it - I know its not just down to our No9 but that's why we will finish mid table we can't keep wasting so many chances very similar to Sunderland, 2nd half I personally thought we lacked urgency & tempo which isn't like us. Doyle is abso...

Re: When Saturday comes, it's Wednesday. V.The Owls Sat,09/10/21.

Doyle keeping up his reputation for needing 5 or 6 clear cut chances to score a goal, IMO he needs to go in January to a league 2 side as that's his level, he needs replacing in January he's not good enough for league 1. He just never looks confident & snatches at his shots, no composure what so eve...

Re: Will we shake a spear at the Taming of the Shrewsbury. Home v them. 3-0lock Saturday.

And FWIW I thought we missed Doylar when he went off. His workrate is so good. Baka understandably rusty but would have liked ideally Baka to play where Kachunga was who for me was a passenger most of the time. It's amazing how we all see things differently, I'm not saying that you are wrong but I ...

F'ing ell truew, you're like the Monty Python Black Knight.... We dominated & where terrific apart from the 3 or 4 times they could have easily scored. It was a very important & deserved 3 points but come on it could have quite easily been 2-2, as Worthy said we didn't get what we deserved against B...

Re: Will we shake a spear at the Taming of the Shrewsbury. Home v them. 3-0lock Saturday.

Dominant performance. Santos was immense. Aside from the penalty and the dubious free kick, Shrewsbury never really had a sniff. We were terrific. You really do have issues - so apart from a penalty & a goal which made it 2-1 we were terrific, so if so called penalty was scored it would have been 2...

Re: Will we shake a spear at the Taming of the Shrewsbury. Home v them. 3-0lock Saturday.

What happened with their free kick that led to the goal? Did santos assumee it was offside and grabbed the ball to take a quick free kick, only for it not to be offside so he got booked for deliberate handball? Santos was right they were offside by some distance, a shocking decision by another awfu...
