A Storm Brewing. Burton Albion V Bolton, Saturday Aug 26th 3 0'Clock,.

Gordon replaces Bennett for them.

We are screaming out for a proper commanding midfield player. And probably two wing backs. If we don’t find those before the deadline I think it’s probably the difference between going up and not.

There have been a few League 1 transfers this week which made me think why we weren't in for them.

[BWFC_Insane]

It's more about the result than performance for me. We can always expect a horrid, ugly game and being under the cosh at Burton

Grind out a 1-0 and move on indeed will be absolutely splendid. But our shortcomings are very clear and we can’t I think pretend that they aren’t.

[DJBlu]

Not the prettiest game to watch but it's a platform for the second half.

They've had zero shots on target even with our gifts. Is it true they've scored one goal all season?

Half time stats are interesting. Apparently theres a zero in the clear-cut chances column for Burton. Not sure i'd agree given that the opposition had rounded the keeper with an almost open goal.

Meanwhile, Bolton are being held to a goalless draw by bottom of the league Burton. Time to kick a few water bottles around and get the hairdryer out Mr Evatt. It's not what you do, it's the way that you do it...

Gordon replaces Bennett for them.

Surely the first substitution where the surnames combine for exasperation in recent memory.

[Mar]

Both Maghoma and Thomason on a yellow card. Both doing decent so far, but it looks like a sending off waiting to happen given what they've been tasked to do.

And blazed wide. Must be a Burton fan on the stats.

Two midfield players booked. Should Evatt take them both off?

Definitely if one of them’s Karl Henry.

I’m imagining Ben Mee replacing Uwe Fuchs.

Posh, home to Derby, go from 1-0 up to 1-4 down from 5 efforts on target. “It’s happening again…”

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Wigan down to ten men after a straight red. #GetIntoEm

Well Derby next week. That will be one to look forward to.

It will be an interesting test, yes. Derby are wildly inconsistent, so let’s hope they revert to crap next week.

[DJBlu]

Santos off, injury.

[TANGODANCER]

Hello, what's up with Captain Santos?

[DJBlu]

Get Iredale off ffs.

Useless cnut.

[Mar]

Santos off, injury.

We should have enough in the tank to deal with this match without Santos. Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd as I type this it goes 1-0 to Burton. FFS Bolton. Shocking defending.

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

And we go 1/0 down.
