The way to answer that Andy is to ask you the opposite question :

Do you care when a player cock's up a pass ? If you do .... and I assume you do ... then you surely appreciate when someone doesn't tend to do that.

Andy has already answered that - he doesn't really care if a player shanks a few into touch as long as said player also has 6 assists and 6 goals in the season and is called Danns!

All I'm saying is that if you constantly pass backwards, you'll have a high completion rate, if you're looking to go forward, you're bound to have a worse rate yet potential to set up more attacking play.

Possibly the only thing I remember from playing at a higher level and being properly coached was the instruction to play the "easy ball".

We can all try the Hollywood pass, and fail. If you pass it to one of your own, in reasonable space, and he then does the same and so on, then the game progresses in your favour.

However, all this is moot. Do we know if he's a square or reverse passer ? I don't recall that. I'd guess there are Opta stats available somewhere.

yeah - but we are talking about mavis... DOES he constantly pass it backwards?? I don't think so...

Anyhow, Mark Davies is 60:40 against to play Saturday according to Freedman.

Suspect bench at absolute best.

Dougie you are wrong if you think Bolton fans will 'stick together with the club and get behind the team'.

Not a chance!

Indeed.

Especially the ones who refer to its employees as "a cancer".

You f*cking hypocrite.
