Re: Villa Away.
After only our third draw of the season last weekend I'm going for a clean sheet. 2-0 to us, Eagles and Davies (K)

Re: Villa Away.
An early goal and get the Villa fans on the players backs and it might well turn out a real good night for us (that's a good night as opposed to goodnight).
Si Deus pro nobis, quis contra nos?

Re: Villa Away.
Any news/proof of this? Only, the midweek after the Blackburn game, he played at Spurs... admittedly in a semi-shadow squad...boltonboris wrote:Just heard a rumour that Tuncay left the Reebok in a huff after not making the bench for Blackburn. If that's the case, feck him..

Marc Iles apparently said that he'd gone back to Germany.Dave Sutton's barnet wrote:Any news/proof of this?

But before that there were rumours circulating on twitter about the Blackburn scenario.
It's all second hand, but the person who tweeted the rumour claims to have heard it from somebody at the club and there were other people who saw him leave the hotel entrance. Wash bag in tow

Re: Villa Away.
Cant blame him given the way he's been treated. Would be useful to have him around still tho
Re: Villa Away.
If Vela's playing I hope they get him some boots that fit - he favoured Coco the clown when he came on on Saturday

This is the team from hell, no good saying we lost Holden or Lee, though they may have made a difference. I trust that, if the almost inevitable happens, Gartside and Coyle will have the balls to ship them all out and get some passion back into the team. Not one of the outfielders has earned their wages this season and had Jussi and Bogdan not performed so well we could have lost every single game bar the odd one or two and shipped dozens more goals. Almost shameful to be a Trotter these days.
Nonsense comment. Amazing how you can turn a positive—our keepers' (supposed) good performances—into an overall negative. You could just as well argue the reverse: "Had Davies and Ngog performed better we could have won every single game bar the odd one or two and scored dozens more goals."
It's an opinion, lad. and Jussi and Bogdan were excluded from overall negativity. But I agree with your rejoinder, had Davies and Ngog (and the rest) performed better etc, etc, etc. And I agree with it because it is your opinion to which you are entitled. Now where's that nurse with me meds?
Right on. "Nonsense" was unnecessary – apologies.
('Twas nonsense though )

Try the Wetherspoons on Bennett's Hill, just off New Street. Stay away from Villa Park area food outlets.bobo the clown wrote:I'm down that way this afternoon & tomorrow, so booked a cheapish hotel nearby.

Gonna be there a little earlier. A bite for tea would be nice?
Never been before.

I'm guessing the irony is lost on you.

Yep. And remind me, what did BWFC do to show respect for Piermario Morosini?

They didn't leave until after midnight.
I've asked/said I will stay up to watch the match!
(Match starts at 4:45AM)
C'mon Bolton, Obviously don't lose or draw!!!

Re: Villa Away.
Agreed. I'm not saying our better form is due to selling Cahill just that there hasn't been any point where it's obvious that we're missing our international centre back. Unlike when you watch Eagles and think "oh my god we need Chungy!". I've not stood watching Ream going "if only we had Gary Cahill still...". If that makes any sense.Dave Sutton's barnet wrote:We've gained a lot more points since we stopped playing 4-4-2. As I recall, this started to happen at Blackburn (when Klas played deeper); Cahill was sold not long after. Causation or correlation? I think our improvement (sporadic, but evident) is more realistically tied to increased tactical nous than selling an international centre-back.LiOC wrote:I think the defence has been better since he's left but I think that's more down to dropping Knight than Cahill. I just don't think the sale has affected us that much. We'd probably have a few more goals though.boltonboris wrote:I think if we still had Cahill, we'd have more points personally.

Re: Villa Away.
Is this game on the radio at all?
5Live seems to broadcasting some Chelsea end-of-season run out and I can't (I imagine) look up Talksports schedule at work.
Can't access GMR up here. May have to try and listen on BRMB or whatever.
Don't like the sound of this.

I'm not asking you to 'think outside the box' I just wish you'd have a rummage around in it once in a while.
