Presumably he means a day on which to complain about refereeing decisions and generally moan. Looking forward to it. Sounds like a day every Bolton fan can embrace.

I'd fancy us to beat Accy over the Unseen Academicals.

Too many banana skins when he's involved, for sure.

Turtley agree with you.

We’re supporting Chelters in the shootout, yeah?
Wouldn’t they take feck all to Wembley and make the final a bit of a dud, though?

Well, Plymouth just about made it past their "lesser" opponent. Our turn to live up to expectations.
I'm glad there was a pitch invasion, it shows they are up for it. I'd rather have an easier game, but if we make the final it should be a cracker.

And thus dawns the day of the great match:
Accrington, still proudly Lancashire. is near enough to us not to split hairs over weather forecasts, so what you see is what you get. Bright and breezy with a bit of wet thrown in.
Talk on B.N is of penalty practise, which only a hari-kari fan would want in their wildest fantasy, but I suppose it could easily happen. No extra-time if the scores are level, just the deadly shoot out. Dion will certainly get one, but who else? Sense says Morley and Stanley, maybe John, maybe even Kachunga, but it's just a guessing game with nerve as important as shooting. Let's just hope we've won before that happens. COME ON YOU WHITES.....

Woke up with the feeling that Mbete will play a big part tonight. Hopefully in a good way.
