Score one goal. Don't get scored against. Win. Three points. Simple. Oh, and if Zat getting his bootlaces in a tangle is a tactic, likewise missing penalties, forget tactics. Just play football. :wink:

We'll lose.

It's Coyle's fault

It's the player's fault

It's 'cos of injuries

They're not fit enough

They play too much ping pong

DF doesn't have enough money

Tranmere have better players than us

Zat Knight

The buck stops at the manager

It's Coyle's fault.

You've missed:

According to the Bolton News today.

Craig Davies and Wheater definitely out. Ream, NGog, Eagles and Tierney all doubtful.

I can't see us being able to put out a team that can do anything other than be soundly beaten there. We just don't have the depth of squad to have so many players missing.

Feck knows. Clearly we haven't been given the full story there.

I suspect Eagles will probably play tomorrow. I hope to god he is properly fit.

No problem, Fella. Likewise.

When Dougie came last season his first instinct was to make us defensively solid and hard to beat - he had mixed success with this. But there seemed to be a point (probably around the Burnley game) where we had to go on an amazing run to reach the playoffs and at that point Dougie seemed to go "feck it" - our mentality shifted and we went for it.

This attitude, especially in our home games, was successful and he only seemed to deviate from it in the Blackpool game which Dougie admitted cost us.

We've started this season with the same defensively solid attitude... Am hoping Dougie thinks "feck it" again soon.

Not sure if I've articulated that point the best, but hopefully you get the picture.

There was a bit of that but in the home games against Middlesborough, Huddersfield, Peterborough, Blackburn, Brighton (may have missed some) we won but by the skin of our teeth and there wasn't a lot of going for it. The most exciting game I saw was the defeat at Leicester where we really did go for it but got beat.
I know what you mean though, but there still wasn't a lot of adventure involved, maybe 2 strikers instead of one and an attacking midfielder! Pretty standard stuff.
