Where fellow sufferers gather to share the pain, longing and unrequited transfer requests that make being a Wanderer what it is...

Baka, JDB and Dapo on for me for Lee and Charles and Kacha. We look light on top third quality.

What is the referee seeing with these corners and free kicks?

Happy with the line up we've got on at the moment. Final ball a number of times has been just that little bit too much, or we've been very close to actually getting on the ball when a decent ball has come in.

Looks like fine margins to me.

Pace by John is inspiring though. More of that please.

Ref gives free kick for the usual infringement: Bolton cross entering the box

Bod coming on for Kacha. I make it we only have one "substitution event" left - you're allowed three stoppages outside HT, when Iredale came on - so it'll be interesting to see if e make one or two changes next

Isn't big Ric "defence leader?" Clearly it's not him stood in the wrong place, but you can't step the backline for an offside trap when one of the troops are three yards adrift, irrespective of what the plan might have been...I'm not trying to blame Santos, but if it's your call on the step out, you need to look across your line.
Maybe theres a breakdown in communication in terms of telling the players to play offside.
Sure, the plan's fine, but it needs to adapt based on game management on the pitch. Not that it's even important anymore :-)

About 2 mins of football will be played between now and the end of the game.

Dion is a nuisance, no doubt about it. But, despite his penalty nous, he’s been poor for a few games now (excluding 20 mins in the second half against Lincoln). Constantly does too much, too slow. His finishing has been so poor, again. Please prove me wrong, lad.

Yeah can’t really disagree with this. He doesn’t really seem to have the quality when it matters.

Charles desperately poor again. I don’t think he’s really good enough. Priority in January has to be to find that sort of striker who is. Not easy to do.

I'm going to disagree. His finish on 71 minutes was a good one that did find the back of the net. Arguable as to whether it was offside but for the sake of a refs decision he'd've scored. He's been in behind a few times and been a handful.

Clearly not in form but not as bad as I suspect it looks.
