Darts & being one of the boys !

His post match interviews are the same every week...today being the same, blames everyone else but himself, his backroom staff and his players.

Rabbit caught in the headlights....he's not a fcuking clue how to change things around.

another problem(s)
he picks the 5 man midfield we so obviously need but there still wasn't enough in there to make Davies (M) look remotely adequate
Reo-Coker had his second shite game in quick succession

Pratley was no worse than either of them. and Eagles was certainly now worse than that wage cheating bag of shite on the other wing

Not for the first time too. Clearly his 'motivational' half-time speeches aren't working.

What else is he supposed to be good at?
Wearing shorts and making Colin Todd's post match excuses look good.

I didn't think anyone could be worse in post match interviews than Megson & Lee....but Coyle is certainly giving them
a run for their money - clueless is the word to sum Coyle up

I binned it off at 2-0, but Reo Coker was better than adequate

He isn't the problem

Asking Davies to do the Muamba job was where it went wrong

Oh yeah, and having Pratley play the Davies/Pratley roll

At least you didn't get up at 6.45 and travel 5 hours on a cramped coach to this godforsaken hole to watch your team disintergrate in front of your eyes. To then have to make the return journey having lost any pride that was lingering prior to kick off. Be thankful mate

Thought you werent going cos of man flu

Ive decided im not going against stoke, it will be emberassing enough anyway but we'll ship about 8 this time
Officer, you must have confused me with some lesser poster who would submit to such a trivial ailment. I was there and i saw first hand (again) how dire we actually are and thankfully i'll be out of internet access on a cruise around the canaries next Saturday. As for the 8 lads who were kicked off the coaches in Swansea I hope your walk home is a very long one!!

Just seen it on MOTD. Sending off was soft but right. Gardner was stupid especially being already on a yellow. No closing down for their first. Pratley.....what the feck was he going to ground like that in the area?

No cohesion in the team at all, needs to be sorted ASAP, otherwise...........

I've left it a few hours before posting as 1. I was walloped after the drive home and 2. I was extremely pished off and wouldn't have been objective.

I echo most of the comments made. For me, Coyle set us up right with 5 across the middle, but he chose the wrong 5. Playing Pratley in an advanced position behind N'Gog didn't work and after they'd cut us open 4 or 5 times in the first ten minutes, he should have had the wherewithall to change it round then. The panic from the bench after Gardener cocked up was tangible. Coyle simply didn't have a clue.

Few came out with any credit; Eagles ran his heart out, the centre backs did well considering they had little cover at times, but Robinson and Petrov should never pull a white shirt on again.

What really cheesed me off was the post match interview in which he clearly hadn't been watching the same match as me. They walloped us, and but for some poor finishing and the crossbar, it would have been 7 or 8 for them.

Coyle has got next week to pull 3 points in or he needs to go.

Bit of a late post from me seeing as soon as I got home from it I went out on the piss in Bolton to try and erase my memory from it.

Possibly the worst performance I've ever seen from a Bolton team, worse than anything we saw under Megson. I don't know what to say, the players just don't seem interested in playing for Coyle. In my opinion, apart from the selection of Pratley, Coyle got it right with the players, and I do agree with his formation but when the players don't give a toss, just jog around the pitch and don't seem interested in getting forward, what can we do?

Every single player should get a fine if they don't pull their finger out and try in the next game. There were some clearly obvious ones, Steinsson in particular, that looked like they couldn't care less. They need a Sam Allardyce kick up the arse big time. I don't think Coyle deserves the sack, I just think he needs assistance in someone giving them a fecking bollocking because I don't think Coyle has it in him to do it himself.

If he's 'lost' Steinnson, that'll be because of the way he's been treated

I'd not be shocked to see a similar response from Muamba

Muamba would have every reason. OC needs to say what his issue with him is, or lose a great deal of respect. It has an air of pig-headedness at the moment.

There would at least be a degree of solidity in a mid-field of Reo-C and Muamba & ffs we need that right now.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.
