Sammy Lee's Bolton v Peter Puppies' City... The Match Thread

[Lost Leopard Spot]

Sordell wont start

but a much fitter and tactically astute bwfc will shit em; goals and a clean sheet.

Why won't Sordell start? (Is he injured?)

[officer_dibble]

I just dont think he's shown he is good enough.

I think its a Coyle 'ooooo I've got some money, lets buy a young talent' signing, rather than he's been benched for being shit at ping pong...times like this need players who dig in...he'd be my go to striker off the bench.

[Lost Leopard Spot]

The general consensus though is that he was benched for being shit at ping pong. I'm thinking (and I may be wildly wrong) that Jiminho and Tiny Sam will be trying to assert their authority by not going with the previous regime's idiosyncracies. We'll see, but I'd be surprised if he didn't start.

We paid as much for Sordell as we offered for Zaha - Coyles now talking like he's the second coming

[leyther95]

Im presuming both Lee and Phillips will be wanting the managers job or one Manager, one assistant. I think they will play a new look side, play with the ball on the ground and look for a convincing win. In regards to the starting lineup, Im hoping/praying he doesnt start Andrews/Ngog/Mills. All that said COYWM

[General Mannerheim]

Does everyone hate Andrews all of a sudden now then?

Yes. He is awful!

Yes. He is awful!

Good to know – I always feel like a fool when I don't know the current scapegoat. Has Mears been given a temporary reprieve, or should I still consider him a useless feck?

And who's Saviour of the month? I suppose it's still Sordell until he gets a game and gives us an excuse to call him shit, too?

[Leyther_Matt]

Sordell still the Messiah as far as I know.

Andrews is only a temporary scapegoat in the absence of Pratley. Mears is still in the 'ironic cheer' zone rather than out-and-out abuse at the moment.

[Bruce Rioja]

Clearly there's only me that doesn't have either Mears or Andrews down as being anything like as bad as they're made out to be on here. Similarly I never had Reo-Cocker down as being anything like as good as folk on here made him out to be.

Not only you.....Andrews especially.

Keep up. Nigel Reo Coker is the new Andranik. Also remembering that all Coyle's signings were shit.

[CAPSLOCK]

Also remembering that all Coyle's signings were shit.

Not all of them

NRC wasn't shit

But, he wasn't stupid either

The rest of his full time signings, I'd say 'jury is out' is being generous

Eagles looks a class apart, but then Coyle getting us relegated made it easier for his signings to shine, and still Pratley, Sordell, Petrov, Ream and Alonso don't get starts - I don't doubt that theres a few more I've forgotten

[Lord Kangana]

Holden's a bit of a glaring ommission. As is Wheater.

[CAPSLOCK]

Indeed, Stuart who played about 30 games

And Wheater, who I like, but had to wait months and fcuking months to get a game

Let's not forget Wylde - what in Gods name was that all about?

[BWFC_Insane]

And the fantastically talented young team he put together, with an average age of 28......

[Lord Kangana]

Indeed, Stuart who played about 30 games

More games (combined!) and less money than either Sean Davis or Danny Shittu. Grasping at straws here.

If our squad needs the drastic overhaul you suggest, then get used to the championship, because we might as well get Sammy Lee in for all the good a new manger would do.

[CAPSLOCK]

I said jurys out

Cos I know they're decent players

Mis-managed by a cockend

[thebish]

{sigh}

surely there are enough threads on the forum to pick over this endless coyle/megson debate??

this is the game thread!!!
