Hey Tango -- can you just tell us a pack of lies tomorrow - invent a commentary and have us 4-0 up at half time..... will at least be worth a laugh and better than the usual depressing hard luck that we're used to

No invention or packs of lies neccesary lads, I don't want death threats or lynch mobs turning up outside my door; we're going to win convinvingly. If by an incredible event such as us losing at half time, I may disappear off air and write a play in which Baron Hardup buys a football club then tells the team the Christmas do is cancelled and they won't get paid till March . It'll come out right in the end though cos the good fairy will turn a pumpkin, left over from Halloween, into a golden stagecoach to take them all out to Manchester Hilton for a giant pxss up and Aladin's uncle will offer Hardup a hundred per cent profit (£2) for the club and immediately buy Lionel Messi, Marcelo, Eden Hazard and Neymar. All this after beating Wigan 6-0.

Cinderella, you shall go to the ball.. :oyea:

I wont be going nor listening and I will not be venturing out tonight. I have simply had enough of sitting there bored to tears watching a bunch of piss poor players. My DD has now been cancelled. Enough is enough.

Can you cancel your season ticket DD ? Are you not contracted to pay for the season?

I did that before the Millwall game, no doubt I shall be contacted by the club. I simply have had enough, I cannot put myself through anymore stress and disappointment watching this. Told Halifax to cancel the transaction and that nothing else to the club comes out.

I have been watching Atherton Colls for some time and I enjoy that more than the chore of getting to the Macron and watching a bunch of effortless mediocre players. If anyone wants to see effort and determination then I beg you all to go and see Athy Colls for yourselves.

Always had good teams. I played against them years ago in the Bolton Combination for Walkers Institute and Oswalds...

Personally speaking, I'm following Matlock Town. I know exactly where you're coming from; Except I've never had a season ticket, and but I'm still going to Trotters matches too. Might change next season, but not yet this one...

4-2-3-1 with Buckley, Ameobi and Noone behind Doidge. Lowe and Williams protecting a back four of Olk, Hobbs, Beevers and Taylor.

Good luck Bolton.

Aye, just heard on the box. Ah well, whoever and whatever, all that matters are those three points. A name from the past to haunt us, "McMannaman"..ugh. Anyway, time for a bit of deep breathing and some stretching on the spot. Brew's just ready, dog walked (in shxtty weather) and all ready to roll. So..COME ON YOU WHITES, GET AMONGST EM! .. :oyea: :oyea: :oyea:

This season, and only this season, they have an even worse record after falling behind than we do. First goal wins then.

Joe Williams trying his best to get sent off in record time.

Noone trying the same.

Two really poor tackles.

If the first five minutes are anything to go by, it's a 4-4-2 with Ameobi partnering Doidge.
