Re: Pied and Prejudice, Wigan (A) 27/02/04.

Whew - that's nearly as tough as an Insano post! I certainly enjoyed us spanking Sunderland (less so Exeter - it was too one sided to be competitive for me). But I'm not sure I rate a win over Lincoln City as high as a win at Old Trafford, or even a draw v Bayern Munich... As for the almost heretic...

Re: Pied and Prejudice, Wigan (A) 27/02/04.

An Allardyce, Parkinson or Megson side would never have gotten to the EFL Trophy Final. They're never beating Sunderland 6-0, Exeter 7-0, or getting in back to back 5-0 wins in the league. We've seen both the highs and the lows of Brand Evatt. I don't think the lows are any lower than we've experien...

Re: From a Pompey fan what’s your view on Boltons chance for remaining few games?

I can’t say I wouldn’t be disappointed with not winning the league. That triple negative made my head spin. :grin: We've had our own injury crisis, which has coincided with a big drop off in form. We've managed to just about keep pace, but it's looking tough when you see our upcoming fixtures. I do...

Re: North by North West. Away to Blackpool Sat 24th Feb, 3-0'clock

I'm curious. How many times do our rivals, or other teams in the league, or indeed in any league, change formation on a game-by-game basis? They might play a full back who is more defensive or more attacking, or switch out a destroyer in midfield for a quarterback-type - but I honestly don't know ho...

Re: Who opened the door? My money is on Janus! 2024 January transfer thread.

Matheson has finally got his loan move. He's off to Ireland until the end of June. Hope he does well. Seems like he's on his way out, although its early days and this may be a good way of getting him competitive game time. Quite like the player, think he's been a good addition to the squad but that...

Re: There's a Moose loose about these U's Take Twos. Cambridge United Away. 20/02/2024

Aye, I was pretty certain that Baxter saves that 2nd goal, at least. Possibly the 1st one too. Hutchinson is unlikely to be coming back as a challenger for that shirt (though I guess stranger things have happened). I think it's a bit of an odd one, especially when considering we could have recalled ...

Also, I saw Baxter on the way into the stadium today. What I didn't see was a cast. Bit of strapping, maybe.

Re: Red cards and Red Kits, Bolton v Charlton - 17th Feb 2024 3pm

Look at our remaining fixtures and Derby and Pompey’s form. Does anyone in heart of hearts have much confidence in us? To me we have a run of the exact sorts of games we struggle with even when we are at our best. And we are far from that right now. Baxter is in a cast so sounds like he’s a long wa...

Re: Red cards and Red Kits, Bolton v Charlton - 17th Feb 2024 3pm

Assuming the injuries are the same, plus Dion, then it should be, for me...

Colema

Geth-Toal-Iredale

JDC-Dempsey-Sheehan-Maghoma-Ogbeta

Vic-AC

Though you could make an argument, in a home game we really should be winning, to have CMG starting instead of Maghoma.

Re: Wandering, Why come back home? Bolton v Wycombe - 13th Feb 2024 19:45pm

Forrester was out on the pitch pre-warm-up last night, as he was vs Barnsley, doing shuttle runs up and down the touchline. He's not far away at all. Do like the bloke. I'm still unconvinced with Toal when the ball is at his feet - I think, from what I've seen, that Forrester does that bit of the jo...

Re: Wandering, Why come back home? Bolton v Wycombe - 13th Feb 2024 19:45pm

Thought Coleman had a good game until his moment of madness. Back three were solid enough, Jones was very good. JDC was great, and was a better RWB than Sadlier was a LW. Ogbeta looked decent going forward, had a trick or two, but could do with more #ContentDownload Hope Dion's not too badly injured...

Doesn't the very fact that we've appealed it make Thomason available for tonight? He's now at risk of missing Saturday vs Charlton instead - and wouldn't it be only one game? It wasn't a "violent conduct" red...

Barnsley have also turned it round to win it in the last minute.
