Bolton v Forest thread

[elfil76]

from whatever I see on the stream, I feel we have regress as a team....

[thebish]

Balls out, go for it.

aye - that's what i'd say - but coyle has been absolutely slated for this approach in the past...

[Lord Kangana]

He'll get a right royal slating if he doesn't win it now, so nowt to lose I'd say.

[thebish]

forest on top now...

[jjstewart]

Mears shouldnt cross the ball hes awful at it. I would have liked to see another substitution. bit late now

[klasnicks]

Still time for Afobe to nick this.

[ChrisC]

Why would anybody want to lose? a draw at least gives us 2 games unbeaten and chins up.. we have come from 1 down so to lose 3-2 would knock the lads confidence big time IMO.

[Abdoulaye's Twin]

Problem is most of us could have predicted Coyle's approach after the team announced. Sub Sordell circa 65 mins Afobe on. Nuffin else!

[jjstewart]

im sure i heard people say last year that we didnt draw enough games. but this game was there for the taking at a number of points

[klasnicks]

Could have been worse, should have been better.

[50sQuiff]

Afobe's link-up play has been inferior to Sordell's. Why take Marv off when he's just got off the mark? You a rarely see that happen. The really worrying thing is Forest have actually looked more likely to win this.

Mark Davies is a diminutive attacking player being told to play a deep role in a flat midfield four. It clearly doesn't work but Coyle keeps expecting different results each time. Andrews has been equally poor unfortunately.

[Tals-biggest-fan]

fecking shit, either owen coyle stays and we finished 11th at best or we find someone who knows how to manage a team and get the best from the players

[DJBlu]

Apart from 2 players we'd have shit this game.

M.Davies
M.Mills

Fecking useless the pair today.

[Lord Kangana]

Indeed. If he had time I'd say this division is simple enough to put nasty lad in for M Davies (ie Spearing) and we'd be sorted, but I'm not sure he's going to get it.

[cecil.bob]

We're not going anywhere this season. Not with Coyle at the helm. Not playing like this. F*cked.

[Burnden Paddock]

Afobe has been poor since coming on

Considering he's had feck all in the way of service.

We were playing the likes of Newcastle though. Grinding out draws is fine if your're just trying to stay in the league.

Admin: can you disable this annoying 'feature' that asks you to review the thread as someone has posted in the meantime.

How many times did he lose the ball? I'm not talking in terms of goal attemps etc.. just overall ball retention.

I thought mills was alrite today i dont bklame him for the second goal id be looking at the other 2 that did't pick up reid

But yeah sparky was shocking

[ChrisC]

There second goal was pretty much what we was trying to do all game against Derby.
