Re: Bolton v the 3.14159265359....eaters 16-10-21
I've read a post stating that Wigan have spent a fortune? The team which beat us cost nothing. I do stand to be corrected but that has come from a Latics season ticket holder. I think Saturday was a massive wake up call, both for the team and fans. I find it quite annoying that almost each game we g...

Re: Will we shake a spear at the Taming of the Shrewsbury. Home v them. 3-0lock Saturday.
Still a lot of moaning Wanderers fans, particularly near my seat. Most don't like the playing out from the back which at times has left us gasping. It's the way Evatt has set them up, he wants to play that style which does mean taking a few risks. I can't get it when these folk keep complaining, wha...

Re: Freddie Hill R.I.P.
During the late 60s someone on the Embankment draped a banner which had "Freddy Hill alias God" printed on. I remember him well as a player, very skilled and a great ball player. Thanks for the memories Fred, RIP.

£197 a bargain. Looking forward to witnessing some decent football.

It states over 65 for discounts, I'm 65 but do I qualify for the discount, I'm 66 in December.

Re: The future is hidden from all men and great events hang on small chances: Exeter (H) Sat 1/5/21 @ 3pm
Had we have said back in January we'd be in the play offs we'd have snatched their hand off. Now because we could have blown automatic promotion I'm not complaining just frustrated at not doing so. It has been our inability to kill teams off when we've dominated possession and not being able to scor...

Re: When do we make a call on Evatt?
As I stated, Evatt will become a very good manager but not with a league 2 side. His ideas are ok if you have the players good enough to adapt. We go to Mansfield Tuesday, they appointed a manager with plenty lower league experience, they are now pushing for a promotion spot. Evatt could be returnin...

Re: When do we make a call on Evatt?
As I have stated before, Evatt has the makings of being a damn good manager. His idea of play would suit a much higher league side but not a bottom one. Those players we have are no where good enough to play the way he would like. Again, I'm not for changing management every few months but I do feel...

Re: 23rd Jan. 3-0'clock Tranmere away; nuff said
Are we asking too much just because we are "Bolton Wanderers"? This is a new adventure for many Wanderers fans who are struggling to come to terms with bottom league footy. As I stated in my last post, I do look forward to watching the game only to be let down. Probably my expectations are high whic...

Re: 23rd Jan. 3-0'clock Tranmere away; nuff said
I look forward to match day with great anticipation only to be let down. It seems as if the side need to go two goals down to start playing and pressing. I'm not one for changing manager every few month but, there's something about Evatt that suggests to me that as long as he's here the club will re...

Re: We've all come a long way: Crawley (H) Sat 2 Jan @ 3pm
From what I have seen and read on here, Bolton fans are more patient than I originally thought. My patience ended many games ago, not so much the team but, the way Evatt wants his players to play. When will he realise those players are not good enough to play that way. We need a pair of midfielders ...

Re: Can we squirrel 3 points from the Wirral mob? (H) Sat. 2020-12-19 15:00 BWFC v Tranmere Rovers
No point trying to play pretty football, this lot can't do it. It's results what count and each game is a bloody struggle. Clueless in that last third.

Re: All change at Crewe....
I've been pretty lenient with this lot but, there comes a time when you're not doing your job to a satisfactory standard then it's time to review. As I have stated in the past, this crop of players aren't good enough to play the way Evatt would like, majority simply can't. Too many sub standard play...

Re: Growing a pair at the UniBol. Man(up)sfield at home. Tuesday 3rd Nov 7pm.
As much as Evatt tries to get the team to play nice pretty football, this crop of players simply can't do it. We have yet to win convincingly and by trying to do so makes me so glad I'm not there to witness it live. According to form, the best half of football we played was not visible as i follow w...

Is it the manager? I find it strange we have been one of the worst teams in the league for the past few seasons?

Re: A Barrow load of trouble. Barrow (A) League 2. 20/10/20 KO 7pm
Lose this and it will be the lowest since I began watching Bolton in the 60s. After witnessing their demise so far this season I have to ask, "who's going to score the goals"? This crop of players sure aren't going to put many teams to the sword. I honestly cannot see a Wanderers win, a draw would b...

Re: Oldham or fold em, but no full house in sight..
It's ok saying don't sack him yet, agreed but, he did assemble this crop of players. From what I've seen so far these players are simply not good enough to play the way Evatt wants. Oldham had significantly less possession than we but, they could have been four up at half time.
