chill, Bobo - Insano has gone - just like Freedman has - and Coyle and Megson and little sammy Lee!!

enjoy the good times - they ain't improved by harking back... honest!
Aye, but it's only a couple of months since we had a thread along the lines of "have we ever had a squad this poor?", to which the answer was largely, "no". Now, it seems they're world beaters. All of which goes to show that we TWs not as clever as we might think we are! :D
They WERE poor!!! :wink:

I'm basically a happy-clappy kind of fan so I want whichever manager to do well, but I feel very silly for apologizing for DF so much. Having said that I don't think he was the one that started the fire so I'm not exactly angry. He did what it said on the label. At least his family are secure now!
The players you fail to sign never lose you any money.

Nobody is happier or more excited than I about how things have gone under Lennon so far.

However, I think it's a bit early to be declaring that we can't be improved. A left back, a winger and a goalscoring striker would help.

We'd need to ship a couple out i think to acvompdate those Tomo. I'd be for binning moxey and a bit more reluctantly beckford. feck knows why beckford cant get his act together and work for it like everyone else.

I agree that it's a little rose-tinted to be saying there's no room for improvement. A proper left-back (which would also give us Ream as an option in central defence) and a (left-)winger, for sure. And a striker - not to decry Cravies who's in the best form of his (Bolton) career, but it's a little hopeful to think he'll keep it up for months - not least physically. That said, we do have Mason for the season, and he may work well at the top of a 4-2-3-1 in which the midfield are actually dedicated to supporting the striker rather than watching from afar.

What an amazing concept.

This could catch on !!

Coyle to Motherwell ?

Despite all his managerial failings at Bolton I still wish him nothing but the best for his future career
A nice fella

Pardon? Abuse? Saying your views don't bother me is abuse? Wow. If you object to "The Vicar of Dribbly" (a bit of harmless fun on a football site) then, hey, I withdraw it. I'll even apologise if you're abused and offended. :|
