Re: Crellin vs Rachubka

Bolton Evening News comments sections appears to indicate we have a new experienced goalie who has been training with us for the last week, and is on the team bus to Stevenage so that he can get to know his new team mates Anyone have any thoughts? It is the comments section so 50/50 on it being fact...

I've got no problem with a 0-0
A clean sheet away from home is a result - even against teams at the bottom.

Re: Sal-Destroying. Home. Friday 13th. 7:45. On the tele.

only 6 points off a play off place - and our next 3 games are against teams at the bottom of the league -- WHAT COULD GO WRONG ?

Re: Crellin vs Rachubka

We have a keeper who isn't fit for non league -- let alone league two ....he isn't even a Wanderer ... we are giving another teams 3rd rate goalie game time at our expense (and points total). There must be some sort of contractual obligation on us to play him.
I hope he's gone soon.

Crellin vs Rachubka

Anyone remember Paul Rachubka - played for us a few years ago - back in 2015.
7 appearances - and let in a shed full of goals
Worst goalie ever... UNTIL NOW


check out this video -- For my money -- Crellin is worse than this....

Re: Pragmatism vs Perseverance

I think we have only 6 or 7 good players at this level Once January comes we have the chance to get rid of some of the dead wood, sign a new goalie, and move on. It was a hell of an ask to employ a manager with no experience of this league, and for him to sign a new team of players and then go on to...

Re: Pragmatism vs Perseverance

I'd be happy to stick it out.
The man wants his team to play proper football, not simply points at any cost - we've been there and done that and it didn't end well.

"We’re making ourselves into a club that we can be proud of and that will take time." - IAN EVATT yesterday

You know I think he will - and I've always been proud of being a Wanderer - I think our darkest days are now behind us.

The difference being that the Earl Of Derby and the Earl Of Derby Estate is alive and kicking -- hopefully they will recall their "gift with reservation" if someone breaks the restrictive convenants on the land.

Re: New Manager Thread

Evatt is very well acquainted the highest/most prolific scorer in non league football - who has q £50k release clause in his contract. 36 goals in 32 games Tunde - at that price someone can take a punt on a non league goal machine. Pity its not going to be us - as we are not allowed to pay transfer ...
