I read last night that we haven't conceded a goal in the second half since the second match of the season. I haven't checked to confirm that's accurate, but if it is I imagine it's connnected.

We have definitely looked stronger second half, my favourite that I attended was at Lincoln. However the downside of that stat is Rotherham didn't need to bother our goal second half after two early gifts!nicholaldo wrote: ↑Wed Sep 29, 2021 5:53 pmofficer_dibble wrote: ↑Wed Sep 29, 2021 1:01 pmIt’s definitely no surprise that on 75-90 minutes are lads are still charging around just as the opposition are tiring.

The forum is capable of them.

The smilies are for the more experienced user.

Evatt has his say on Doyle and Sarce criticism (mainly social media kids who know nowt so should he bother commenting?).

Absolutely spot on in terms of workrate and how critical they both are to how we play. For me along with MJ and Dapo they are the players you just include in every (important) game regardless. If they are fit they play.

One of those where they're both giving their all but finding it tougher against better opposition.
Evatt must pore over social media because he's a bit of a delicate flower when it comes to criticism. The majority of fans are right behind those players he should ignore Twitter. If they're getting grief at games, different story.

Exactly this, no lack of support for the players at the games and a few dissenting voices on Social Media will always be the loudestLeverEnd wrote: ↑Thu Sep 30, 2021 11:35 amOne of those where they're both giving their all but finding it tougher against better opposition.

Aye. There's a slight hint of the cult leader in the determination to quash dissent. Maybe that's unfair, and it can be a great motivator – "I'll show you" - but it seems to me like a road to misery because you'll simply never get 100% approval for every move.
The opposite - Megson's absolute disdain for opinion or Neal's "water off a duck's back" - isn't good either, but as in most things in life, there's a happy medium. Or at least a contented medium.
If you want to find dissent on Twitter, you will always, always find it. And empty vessels make a lot of noise. Minority opinions shriek loudest. Every time we have a "Manager Out" thread on here, there's a few people loudly disgusted (and usually well within their rights to be) who dominate the conversation, but whenever we do a poll it's very rarely in majority favour of sacking.
Meanwhile with Twitter discussion about players, "He's sh!t" is only really answerable with either a reasoned debate which will be ignored, or rising to the bait and being as strongly opinionated. And often players clearly aren't playing 100% brilliantly, but "it'll come good" and "get behind them" only goes so far. And in a brutal era of social-media division and argument, only the argumentative keep shouting.

I'm fairly sure I wouldn't bother with Twitter as a Bolton player. (I know they should be able to use it)...
You only have to look at how "together" the team looks when they score, to know how much the players appreciate what Sarce and Doyler do.

I've heard Iles mention that the club do look at social media and analyse it - one assumes someone provides IE a report of what's being said.
I don't see an issue with him praising players but its more the fact he gives weight to the opinions of absolute morons. I'd hope IE doesn't listen to me or anyone online. And our views should have no weight at all. We're not privy to the data or information he is.
However, we express the views because its cathartic and allows for interesting debate. But IE shouldn't really feel a need to be involved in that beyond I guess the usual answering to his own decisions a manager must do.

I am with Worthy on this. If I was playing, I certainly would not be looking at Twitter etc.. One bad apple among nine good ones can do serious harm to the entire bunch. So insults from anyone will hurt players and coaches. Not that constructive criticism should not be made, but when I look at the criticisms on Social Media, it is clear to me that most of them have never played the game, nor have the slightest idea for example as to why MJ plays, given that he isn't scoring any goals. I'snt football about scoring goals? What else is there to it?? SMH. That's why I love this forum. Most of the contributors here certainly have a high level of football intelligence, and I value opinions as being constructive, unlike Twitter, BEN etc..
