Re: What's the Point of Scottish Football?
I'd agree with all that.
I think the bugbear was the 'what's the point' thing in the article.

Re: What's the Point of Scottish Football?
I'm delighted you wrote that Fatshaft. I've been a miserable Scotland supporter for bloody ages (and being a long-suffering Bolton fan too indicates maybe I'm just a sucker for punishment) suffering through what has now been a few barren decades of pish. There are often times I throw my hands up and...

If we're talking absenteeism here, I'm just popping my neb in to re-confirm existence. Well mine anyway.
Don't worry, the next time we play Arsenal I'll write another match report.

Re: Boxing Clever...Shrewsbury Home 26th Dec.
I dunno, we were conceding regularly from late pressure in previous seasons. Now we get late pressure and regularly don't concede. Neither is a coincidence. We are doing some thing different even if we are not controlling the game late we are keeping them out of the onion bag better. Ill put that do...

Re: FA Cup 3rd rd
If I wasn't so busy lately I'd have taken this seriously and lumped on.
I'm happy if Sam's bounced back. But now he's got Chungy and we don't. Double

Re: Allardyces dream job...
Pathetic entrapment, FA wrong to get rid. Bitter London media couldn't wait to torpedo things. And who would they have instead? Harry "Rosie" Redknapp! A story of much greater public interest would be the tax arrangements of the Daily Telegraph's owners, the Barclay brothers. Everyone seems to have...

Re: Brexit or Britin
I'm finding it hard to believe (although I shouldn't really) that the UK components are so very ready ( almost overnight) to believe that they can just stick passport control cabins up on the borders of their respective camps and become suddenly independent selling kilts and bottled Guinness. .

Re: Euro Championships 2016
I thought we played very well last night. That kind of possession football combined with excellent forward link-up play and breaking at pace will win you more matches than it loses... and can win you tournaments. We just have to keep it up. Wins internet pint for most sensible comment of the thread...

Re: Stelios Giannakopoulos - your memories
Then came my personal favourite Stelios moment; he picked up a loose ball from a Bolton tackle, beat one man, side-stepped David Weir to give himself half a yard before unleashing a calm right footed strike from just outside the box into the top right corner! Side-stepping David Weir would probably...

Re: Stelios Giannakopoulos - your memories
Towards the end of his stay, in what had been a dire game, this Megson-era injury-time goal from Stelios won a crucial three points. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=8OE-2JHcTOw#t=55 http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/bolton-1-derby-county-0-late-str...

Re: The Ping-Pong Times
Why was he given such an easy ride? The damage he was doing was obvious. I'm 100% the situation now would look entirely different if we'd got rid of him in November when we should have, and would have had a real chance of surviving. Because Megson was such a massive c*nt and the early part of Coyle...

There's a gazillion articles on a similar topic already but if you like Making a Murderer then also check out two documentaries called Paradise Lost and The Thin Blue Line (no, not that one) Similar theme I think and supposed to be very good.
