^^ This is the pessimism thread. It's going to be called "The Shithaus" to make it feel like we're in Europe.

I think it'll have more of a local feel. DW Stadium II probably.

It'll never happen, but it really deserves to be ". The Eddie Davies Stadium" But for him we may never have had a stadium.

This thread seens the right place for this: Stockport promoted. :evil:

Not worried by Stockport, that’s some pessimism leap - bet we get them in that lower league trophy thing mind.

I'm hoping we start as we mean to go on. Consistency is a priority and at least we don't have twelve points to catch up this time. We're a different Bolton Wanderers now.

At the moment our likely start depends on our fixtures. We need recruitment to get us to the point where who we're facing matters less than what we do.

I'm starting to think some people are missing the point of pessimism. Giving mitigation, ain't helping.

I'm hopeful they'll improve in that department.

Am I doing it right?

Just thinking back to finishing the season strongly under Dougie Freedman in 2013 and being full of optimism about the new season and possibly getting to sign a brilliant young loan player and .... it's happening again.

It's beginning to look that way. Almost a month since our last win.
