Re: Re: Twixt Cups and Lips. Home to Shrewbury Town, Tuesday Apr 16th 7-45.
The more touches and passes we take in and around their box the less likely we are to score. The more quickly we shoot or get delivery into the box the more likely we are to score. I think statistically the opposite is true. The teams who sling the ball in from wide areas score less goals, than the...

Re: Dem Bones, Dem Bones, Dem Bare Bones....
Been an ok player for us and had some moments, but been totally underwhelming since coming back from his injury. EFL Trophy reserve games aside. I can't see us offering him an extension.
Cheers JD and all the best

Re: Re: Twixt Cups and Lips. Home to Shrewbury Town, Tuesday Apr 16th 7-45.
I've been so confident that things will go our way. Didn;t see that coming last night a joke of a game. The referees are not just complicit in football being ruined, they actively encourage it. Ref telling the keeper to go to the other side of the area, then giving him the thumbs up. Deliberately tu...

I think we'll have to be patient, but we should have enough impetus and will to win the game. Just don't go behind!!

Re: Re: Twixt Cups and Lips. Home to Shrewbury Town, Tuesday Apr 16th 7-45.
It was certainly warranting of a second yellow that piss-take. Refs aren't bothered though. They're often not quite fit enough for the rigors of the modern game and as a result, are very happy for it to be slowed down

Re: Twixt Cups and Lips. Home to Shrewbury Town, Tuesday Apr 16th 7-45.
Whilst we should win tomorrow, I don’t think it’s a foregone conclusion. I’d be slightly concerned about a mental hangover from the weekend given we likely cost ourselves the chance of the automatics. Anyway, I’d be tempted to make a few personnel changes to avoid overworking some key players ahead...

3-0 to the super whites.
Derby to draw on Saturday while we win and we go into the last day in 2nd place

Re: The Nostradamus file....
^ :-D Without wanting to sound unduly harsh, I do think Dan may develop into an ok player who will have his moments for us, but he was out of form and isn't going to have gotten any better while he was out with a torn hamstring.. Who knows, maybe with some good backing from the fans he might find so...

I’m genuinely interested to know how confident Insano is feeling about this one, so if you’re reading this, mate, please get your account reinstated. Agreed.. I'm confident about this one. Think we'll be bang up for it and if they're already planning their night out after the game, as is often the ...

Re: The Nostradamus file....
I do wonder however how much the timing of games impacts the opposition. Derby play Wednesday and Saturday, which means that they could be feeling further ahead than they actually are should they win on Wednesday. Points in the bag vs games in hand, innit. It all levels up a week tomorrow when we h...

Re: Race to the tape: 2024's League One promotion campaign
They have 4 chances to do that though. They can play and be relatively relaxed. Will they match our intensity if we get into them early? Could work either way. Portsmouth don't struggle with intensity. If anything, we'd have to match theirs. Not vice-versa They go down a LOT. All over the pitch. I ...

Re: Race to the tape: 2024's League One promotion campaign
Wycombe had the better of that second half and Derby’s keeper made a couple of crucial saves.
We’ll take that though. Back in our hands if we win Saturday. Beat Pompey on Saturday and I’m confident we’ll have it wrapped up by 5pm on the 21st

Wycombe all over the show defensively. Derby should really be a couple of goals up, in what has been a fairly poor first half

Re: Race to the tape: 2024's League One promotion campaign
Cant see Derby dropping anymore points. Thought Wycombe away for them would be our best bet, but with them losing the final, it will be hard for them to pick themselves up having nothing to play for now. Arguably our best bet is for them to drop points against Leyton Orient or Wycombe. Trouble is, ...

Re: Pirates but not from Penzance. Away to Bristol Sat 6th Apr. 3-0'clock
Cameron Jerome might just go down in Bolton folklore! What a cameo.
Not much to say about the game other than we didn’t play particularly well. But also didnt particularly look like we wouldn’t win, once we got ahead.
Lovely finish by the Collins.
