Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
He was a long way short of Jasprit...his figures weren't awful, but not "peak Anderson," either...
I sorta got the impression from the interview, that he mighta preferred to bow out at Lords, but Lords goes first, Oval last...

Re: Tooling up: The summer 2024 transfer thread
Presumably Paris is the #1 target in midfield. Sheehan is player of the year and everyone else is under a long contract. So I suppose it depends on whether Evatt feels that department is strong enough as is and just needs a reliable Championship player, or if he thinks it needs a big boost. Strongl...

Re: Tooling up: The summer 2024 transfer thread
Hmm, Worthy wants someone a bit more solid. I prefer Randall defensively, suspect Bradley might cost a few quid, but Ogbeta for me doesn't bother nearly enough defensively..

I think part of why he left was couldn't settle oop North, mate...so dunno...sonicthewhite wrote: ↑Sat May 11, 2024 6:40 pmWould anyone take Kioso vacation? Seems to have jumped between a few clubs in Champo/Lg1 including loan deals. Did okay for us and experience of a division up.

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
Might be a while till we find another "Jimmy".......... :( ae:) ae:) I'm sure it will TD, if you think of all the others that started after him and finished before him. Just listened to his interview, yesterday. Seems he's known for a few weeks, didn't sound like it was all his pick, but he's settl...

Re: Tooling up: The summer 2024 transfer thread
I have Ogbeta as improving going forwards, wanting in defence. He'd be a no from me, unless they think they can work his defence, better. More critical for me should we go up one. So yeah 2 WB's. I'm fairly sure in MF you've described most of the attributes for MF general, Ghost. I'd be a bit concer...

Re: Rising in Wembley's Glow: A Bolton Wanderers Tale - Bolton vs Oxford. 18th May 2024, 4.15pm
Given my "record" of finals, I've elected to take one for the team, and not go....thank me later. :D Na. Get yourself to Wembley, matey. It's 5 years since Sky had that stupid "count down to extinction" clock up for us. This is our biggest game since then. We should all be there for it. I've yet to...

TBF DSB, they spent all day avoiding Radio, TV and the Newspapers. I reckon if it got an update, they might include football forums too!

Sir James of Burnley has announced his last test....v West Indies in a decision, I suspect Stokesy and McCullum have helped him with. To be honest, I might have tried to stick with him until he'd managed to depose the final Aussie, but it's been taking quite a while. What a player he's been for Eng...

Re: Rising in Wembley's Glow: A Bolton Wanderers Tale - Bolton vs Oxford. 18th May 2024, 4.15pm
I was hoping we at least got to Wednesday or Thursday of next week. But no, we've gone early. Queue a million posts about not taking the opposition for granted (we'd already had a bit of a warm up), like any fcuker inside the camp will read them and think "ohhh, we're doing this all wrong."... :-) C...

Re: Tooling up: The summer 2024 transfer thread
120-odd goals in all competitions this season tends to indicate that we're pretty solid up top. Yes, there's questions over whether Charles, Collins and Adeboyejo can make the step up, and we certainly need better options than we currently have (though JDB is an interesting counterpoint - he was ju...

Re: Tooling up: The summer 2024 transfer thread
Jeez DSB! :-) Where's the midfield general when you need one! I like Geth - but would he be a decent enough CB, one division up, should we get there? (Same on Toal/Iredale for me)... JDC to run for 50 games a division up with really piecemeal cover? Ogbeta is a loanee (not sure I'd buy him), Maghoma...

Re: Rising in Wembley's Glow: A Bolton Wanderers Tale - Bolton vs TBC. 18th May 2024, 4.15pm
"Rub of the green", something Bolton don't get a lot of, is not just a wish, it's the unknown accident that can occur in the most unexpected time and place either for you or against. Personally, I reckon it's possibly from the ancient Welsh Celtic rugby translation of " Referundinium a clitoristy" ...

Re: Rising in Wembley's Glow: A Bolton Wanderers Tale - Bolton vs TBC. 18th May 2024, 4.15pm
We're a better team than Oxford. It's a one off game, they are a good side and can beat us, but we should win. We're a better team than Peterborough, but they have two or three players who if they turn up can really hurt anyone. So I'm happy it's Oxford while being a long way from job done. DJ - ho...

Re: Rising in Wembley's Glow: A Bolton Wanderers Tale - Bolton vs TBC. 18th May 2024, 4.15pm
Not saying that we will lose I merely want us to show Oxford the respect we should afford them. They have the ‘finished 6th’ momentum and the way they nullified Peterborough was the way some teams have had success against us this season. On the plus side I think if we play at our best and take our ...

Re: Rising in Wembley's Glow: A Bolton Wanderers Tale - Bolton vs TBC. 18th May 2024, 4.15pm
Cheers mate. There are no unbeatable teams in the play-offs. Most are there because their abilities are a bit more patchy than the top 2 and a bit less patchy than the team that finished 7th. I also think we're better on the front foot than ultra cautious scrap. I don't think we set out to defend a ...
