Smackems v The Trotters

[midnitefooty]

Wanderers: Jaaskelainen, Ricketts, Cahill, Knight, Robinson, Taylor, Muamba, Holden, Petrov, Elmander, Kevin Davies (Subs: Bogdan, Cohen, Rodrigo, Chung-Yong, Klasnic, Steinsson, Blake)

Woah... unexpected lineup. CYL finally being given a rest eh?

I'm going for a 2-0. Elmander and Taylor (finally) to score.

And a clean sheet?

you're right, perhaps expecting Taylor to score AND have a clean sheet was too much in one game...

[TANGODANCER]

Whole lot of the Mackems, Bruce included, are playing the ref for all its worth. Cahill yellow card for getting the ball, stripes going downlike snowflakes and if we when a header, grab your face. That save was uttely incredibel, certain goal but for it. Their defence are playing us well enough. We need plan B. Ref will give us nothing as usual so get with it lads and go for it.

Shocking, shocking, shocking.

Cohen in first 18 ?

[Gravedigger]

Three minutes stoppage time! He's having a laugh!

Average positions. Too narrow, haven't got at the full backs enough

[DJBlu]

Oh and David Seaman's save was better cause it wasn't against us! lol

Agreed - think they've had eight clean sheets (fancy!) and they seem solid in the middle. I'd give Petrov and Taylor the first 15 then consider slinging Lee and Rodrigo at them to exploit those full-backs - right-footer Bardsley at left-back, midfielder El Mohamady at right-back.

Yeah, Ricketts has been stuck trying (and failing) to get to grips with Welbeck. Need CYL's workrate and assistance with overlapping there.

[Trotski]

Only good thing so far is watching the thing ok Danish tv for once. Claus Jensen assisting the commentator - and with a slight Bolton bias. Don't see that too often.

[norm the jedi]

So.. Petrov back on the right... then..

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Shocking, shocking, shocking.

Cohen in first 18 ?

Fourth-choice central midfielder, and Mavis is banned. Fair enough.

[DJBlu]

1 word . CHEAT!

[spikeykev]

Ref has completely bottled that what a nice person

[norm the jedi]

What a cunk Steve Bruce is..
Cattermole should be in the bath..

[DJBlu]

Ref has completely bottled that what a tw*t

0 reds this season. Explains alot.

[Trotski]

No two ways about it. Biggest yellow ever!

[Horza]

Disgusting. And I'm not just talking Twattermole.

[hisroyalgingerness]

Yeah bottled no doubt about it. We're not looking very clever here I'm afraid, some really poor passing and little movement

And why are we the only club I watch where a throw in is a gift of ball back to the opposition

Petrov to come off for Lee or Rodrigo for me

[DJBlu]

Petrov has to come off soon.

[bobo the clown]

It's pretty clear that Bruce & Coyle don't get on. Not only did we not get the usual "isn't he great" shite but the "they're still long-ball" plus they are in each other's faces throughout this.
