Re: Ricardo Gardner
He is the reason I "discovered" BWFC when he was signed by Colin Todd after the 1998 World Cup when he played left back for Jamaica as a 19 year old. Was a left winger at high school (Wolmers Boys) and played left Wing back for Jamaica at the world cup in a 3-5-2 formation. I will always remember th...

Re: Loan Watch 2010/11
Think he'd have pulled his finger out seeing as he's basically playing for a Championship (any of 'em) contract. Be interesting to see where he crops up, probably one of the 'bigger' shit Championship clubs like Derby, Bristol City or Coventry will give him a couple of years. I doubt if he will be ...

Re: Away form
It just seem to me that away from home, our players are in a hurry to get rid of the ball. They lack the confidence that they have in front of our home crowd.
The question for me is why?

Re: Trotters take aim at The Gunners - Match Thread
Finally the monkey off our back. We beat a top 4 side before the season ended. Weaker teams had done it so why not us! The wait is now over. Great performance. Still hurting from the Stoke debacle, but this shows what we are capable of. Lots of players worth mentioning but Cahill followed by Jussi w...

Re: Coyle Plans Shake-Up
The only players I would change from the starting team against Stoke would be Klasnic (for Sturridge), Knight (for Wheater) and Lee (for Mark Davies) Play Elmander or Sturridge wide. Other than that, Robinson and Jussi should remain. We need to beat a top 4 team before the season ends and the are bo...

Re: Papering over the cracks?
Barring a few players (Holden, Petrov, Wheater, Alonso), this is still Megsons team. OC has already proven to me that he is an excellent manager who needs to be backed with funds during the upcoming season so that he can build his own team. With Cahill's transfer fee and so many players out of contr...

Re: Semi Final Match Thread
I was not there but it was painful to watch here in Jamaica. I have never seen us play this badly. Some here have slagged OC, but the only surprise for me in the line up that OC put out was Klasnic instead of Mark Davies. I thought that against Stoke, who always seem to have KD in their back pocket ...

Re: Wembley - Knight or Wheater?
Tough decision. They are both good players.
Let Cahill decide who he is more comfortable with.

Re: Brum vs Bolton (League)
Half Time. We just weren't in the game for the first 25 mins. Looked like we were playing without any central midfielders. after a while, Moo started to get into the game but is Cohen even on the field. Positives: Alonso looking good on the left and is a willing runner Petrov getting in some good cr...

Re: ta ra Joey O
I think this was something that Joey O'Brien quite clearly needed and i'm glad he's got it. It's a shame that he'll be ending up leaving the club after having such a tumultuous time with injuries but i'm sure he'll leave with our blessing. Joining back up with Megson will certainly do him some favo...

Re: ta ra Joey O
Strange decision if true with Holdens injury, and our need for midfielders.
Maybe means a promotion from the reserve team for someone.

Re: Wanderers v Man U
It was a reckless and dangerous tackle. Evans saw Holden coming and decided to go through him with full force, studs up. Definitely red. It may not have been deliberately to injure him, but he made the decision to be a tough guy and go through Stuart. Stuart also went in, but his tackle was to win t...

Re: Recall Gardner?
I think we have to recall him. Coyle did not want to play him LM or LB for some reason, his best positions, and prefered him in CM which is his weakest of the three positions. Now he has to bring him back as back up to Mavies and Moo, or preferably to play as the 3rd midfielder in a 4-3-3 formation....

Re: Holden
A sickening blow for us all. Our best central Midfielder by a country mile, the heartbeat of our side this season. While he was out we were dismal. Now we will struggle to keep our top ten position at the end of the season (Sorry), but thats the reality of what we face now. We will have to change ta...

Re: Fulham on Sunday - FA Cup
We looked very solid and have a good chance of getting to the finals. In fact, I believe we can. Birmingham will be distracted by their relegation battle and league Cup finals. Arsenal or Man U will go out next round, and with luck, one of them will play Man City in the semis. That would leave us wi...

Re: Elmander - "No obligation" to Bolton
I was expecting him to leave during the transfer window in January, but his performences nose dived recently which seems to have caused a few suitors to change their minds, hence no offers. He must have been disappointed by that, as we no doubt were, since it was the best shot we had of recouping a ...

Re: Bolton Wanderers vs Tottingham Hotspur
With the luck we are having we may just nick it in the 2nd half! Holden and Mark Davies are playing like total strangers to each other, and Elmander is completely lost and not hlping Ricketts with Lennon at all. I believe OC has made a mistake playing him out there. He needs to fix it quickly with L...
