I think most newly appointed managers these days are given a script to follow by the media team with some key points. If.....IF we get an announcement, I'm betting "18000 ST holders for a League one club" and "JJ Okocha" come into the mix.
He's a Scouser, so we won't be able to tell if he's saying Okocha or clearing his throat!

I understand jmjhb is our man on the inside (or perhaps not the man/woman himself, but a man who is in contact with said person on the inside).

The Internet is getting excited that the floodlights are on, like it's a sign from the Vatican.

Would be very Bolton for one our lads to be out for 6 months after he gets tripped and finds the yale with his knee.Dave Sutton's barnet wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2025 5:48 pmWhen in fact it's just that the groundsman lost his keys this afternoon.

I've noticed the Wanderers fans high-fiving each other that Vic might be injured, and saying anyone who likes him must be an Evatt fan.GhostoftheBok wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2025 6:30 pmI've ordered Pizza. Social media is really entertaining tonight.

I've not seen any of that, but I have rather a lot of people muted for just that reason.Dave Sutton's barnet wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2025 6:31 pmI've noticed the Wanderers fans high-fiving each other that Vic might be injured, and saying anyone who likes him must be an Evatt fan.

Back-to-back wins with Vic playing well in both, must be good news he's hurt

He was very good on Tuesday too. I mean we know his limitations but he will be a big loss if he’s out.Dave Sutton's barnet wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2025 6:31 pmI've noticed the Wanderers fans high-fiving each other that Vic might be injured, and saying anyone who likes him must be an Evatt fan.GhostoftheBok wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2025 6:30 pmI've ordered Pizza.

Just never agreed with the thinking, if that's not too grand a term, behind "Hooray! Our player's injured!"BWFC_Insane wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2025 6:36 pmHe was very good on Tuesday too. I mean we know his limitations but he will be a big loss if he’s out.

Even a player you don’t rate or like I don’t see why you’d want injured.Dave Sutton's barnet wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2025 6:38 pmJust never agreed with the thinking, if that's not too grand a term, behind "Hooray!

I mean his movement was top on Tuesday. I think the way we played suited him. He was also unlucky a couple of times that things didn’t quite come off.

Add in to all that that Vic is one of the nicest lads you'll ever meet.
Re: Who's the Rioch to Evatt's Neal?
Vic and Collins will do for me as a partnership for the rest of the season. Hope the big man’s available for Saturday.

Re: Who's the Rioch to Evatt's Neal?
Yep. What we need though is adequate backups or alternative options. I guess we will add one that can do what Vic does. I hope McAtee comes good because I doubt we will sign a Collins backup.
