It matters not a jot, but has Vic worn a wrist support ever since we signed him?

Yes
Cheers. Hadn’t really noticed it much
Think he's worn it for a long time - sure I read somewhere it's not an injury, but like a good luck/superstition thing....
Funny people, footballers. Ta

We’re missing Gethin a little in their half - supporting runs in the half-spaces helping ball redistribution

Lovely stuff by Charles teeing up Maghoma. Decent footwork and shooting just over.

Edge of the seat stuff.

Best chance yet but Paris dithers. Cameras show Bolton fans, most clapping, but one entirely focused on flicking locals the Vs

It’s not the greatest game but as a neutral journalist I’d call it intriguing.

As a Bolton fan I’m enjoying it. We don’t look out of place. Nervy but it doesn’t REALLY matter.

I meant that moment, not necessarily the game as a whole.

Saw that. Pretty sure there's got to be something slightly wrong with you if you travel all that way and pay all that money only to take pleasure in swearing at people.

They just need that belief. On this showing I'd say they're (Luton) in bother this season but I know nothing.

Sheehan dispossessing Premier oppos like a tiny Welsh Karl Henry who can also pass
Sheehan’s just picked a fight with Carlton Morris, blocking him so needlessly obstreperously that the Luton captain grabbed out at him.

I like it.

Well, just took a break from decorating with the excuse I needed a brew :wink: how are we doing so far?

Perhaps. Everton looked awful when we played them in pre-season and yet they've almost got as many points as Chelsea this season.

Decent, but not threatening.

We're playing really well and imposing ourselves. Happy as can be expected.

Couple of moves broke down with Charles at the end of that half.

Just checked Livescore and Blackpool are beating Forest 2-1. If they can do it no reason we can't be confident of a result against Luton.

First 15 they looked better without much actual threat (two-thirds of the ball, though). Since then we've grown into it, started playing it around and arguably looked at least as good as them, although again without real "chances".

Been good this! Their quality means you think they'll probably have enough. But not far off their full strength and we've imposed ourselves well.

Goal would be nice to get the hopes up.

Yeah, it's just decision-making with him. Sometimes it's like when he receives the ball he's so intoxicated with all the things he could possibly do next that he can struggle to choose the right one. But he's a good player, and potentially a very good one.

Is this the first time he's been paired with Dempsey as the free 8s?
