Re: Today I'm angry about.....
Someone told me that in Singapore you get birched for having chewing gum stuck to your shoe. Yep - and its against the law to jay walk and not cross at designated crossing points. And there is no free speech and massive media control. In these kinds of countries the state can place a lot more contr...

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
This isn’t point scoring. It’s looking at thousands of people dying who could have been spared. You sure about that? Absolutely sure? Pity you weren't there to give your advice a few months ago, this whole thing would have been a breeze and sorted by now. See Germany, Singapore, South Korea, New Ze...

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
It never ceases to amaze and astound me the level of dirt throwing and point scoring people resort to in a crisis. As has been said, maybe things could have been done differently, maybe things could have been done better and maybe, just maybe countries could have been more prepared. However..... Th...

Campionne 2000 by E-Type was around for a while - early 2000's I think (hence title of song....)?

Re: FV Recruitment Model
Indeed they have. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51867989 No need to worry for us. First paragraph of the BBC story reads: "Elite football in Britain has been suspended until at least 3 April" - we've been so far from Elite for the past few years presumably we will be OK to carry on? Maybe we...

Re: Brewer's Droop - Burton Albion (A), 7:45pm, Tuesday, 10/03/20
Alright that. A draw against a team 11 places & 22 points (excl -12) ahead of us in the league. According to the highlights more chances for us than them - including 1 off the line - and on their patch too.TonyDomingos wrote: ↑Wed Mar 11, 2020 2:41 pmHighlights. Watch and weep.

Re: Don the tin helmets and Plough on regardless, AFCW (A) 7/3/2020 3pm9
My point is that a better manager would probably have got more out of this squad of players, and that the current squad should have been capable of better results & performances than they have under Hill. I agree that all players deteriorate at some stage, but surely not the whole squad - and if yo...

Re: Don the tin helmets and Plough on regardless, AFCW (A) 7/3/2020 3pm9
But it is though, Hill knew the score and the conditions that he would be working under when he took the job. He's signed Emmanuel (ex championship player), Nsiala (ex championship player), Daryl Murphy (ex championship player), Fleming (ex championship player), O'Grady, Bunney, Hamilton & Delaney ...

Re: Don the tin helmets and Plough on regardless, AFCW (A) 7/3/2020 3pm9
See, I kind of agree, but not sure the logic of "if you ignore some of the wins from our run, then we've not won many" works!!!!

Re: Another fine mess Stanley (H) 29.2.2020 3pm KO
We should certainly hope for better, but why expect better? Where exactly does the expectation come from? We've been mis-managed for years and it all came to a head last year when we very nearly went out of existence. Potential investors were few and far between, and one of them - only one - was pre...

Re: Another fine mess Stanley (H) 29.2.2020 3pm KO
If you are in the sh one t and accept it you stay in the sh one t. The manager simply is not good enough by any stretch of the imagination and thinking because of one reasonable 45mins and not conceding is turning a corner beggers belief. Like most I expected us to be down at the bottom and more or...

Do you seriously belief this ? or are you after a reaction. The reason that the chat on here is rather slow IMO is because everything regarding BWFC is fcuking depressing at the moment, sliding into League 2 for the 1st time since the 80's with a whimper, but the 'do gooders' think a 0-0 at home ag...

Re: Day after St Valentines day massacre? Bolton v Wycombe Home, Sat 15th Feb. 3-o'clock.
Fella, how do you know that we couldn't get a better manager ? we appointed Hill & Shitcroft after 5 mins just because they were Bolton born, FV don't have a clue about the football side of things. I don't know if we could have got a better manager or not to be honest mate. I don't recall a massive...

there is absolutely nothing for the fans to be optimistic about, its depressing and at the moment there is absolutely no hope or plan that things will improve.

Course I'm not related to Keith - don't have any beef with the fella, but no great allegiance either.
I just think we need a sense of perspective. Ever to occur to anyone that we couldn't get a better manager as we couldn't aatract or afford one??
