We've all come a long way: Crawley (H) Sat 2 Jan @ 3pm

21 Bolton attempts on goal - I make that our highest number of the season

Aye, we had 19 against Port Vale and 16 against Tranmere and Orient...

[officer_dibble]

I think it is the players. Systems not changed and neither has there been any subs. Mentally they’ve em only turned on since going behind. That’s not Evatts fault.

[Prufrock]

Exactly. It's all been tempo and aggression.

It is at least partly the manager's fault if they're not switched on – "partly" because he can't cross the white line.

I will be intrigued to see how many personnel changes we make this month. We need leaders - Lee?

[officer_dibble]

Some of these aren’t cut out to play for Bolton. Think they can just turn up and win. Lee might be the character they need.

What this shows is we are good enough. The problem lies not in the players.....

Nor the system as it's not changed either.

Brockbank more or less a right winger since the goal. Which is why everything has gone down that side. Either the players have just freed themselves from the system holding them back or just can’t be bothered at 0-0. Either way problem is not a lack of quality at all. Not in the players....

Isgrove there, playing into space for Tomo's right foot

Or the system is more fluid than the players often show.

But you stick to your guns, lad.

[The_Gun]

I can’t watch today so following on here and the live text. Have we made no subs?

Well that’s a problem then isn’t it? If what you are doing is failing you change it. Yet we are doing the same thing game by game. And when desperate we look a better side. Perhaps it suggests the issues and points to them very clearly.

[DJBlu]

feck me Greenidge. 2 players in the box and you pick out the defender.

Muppet.

"Not a lack of quality in the players" is not the same as "not the players".

[officer_dibble]

I’d keep Doyle and Tutte and happily get rid of the rest of ‘em.

What the total arse are you talking about?

In the second half, Brocky has overload down the right. Greenidge has just overloaded down the left. The system can work. But, as I say, you don't want to see that.

[Prufrock]

Classic.

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Greenidge sent off

[officer_dibble]

feck me I hope that’s the last time he plays for us.

[DJBlu]

Game over, cheers Reiss. Piss poor throw again, pressure at the back and goes through the player. 2nd yellow and a red. Cnut.

Saving grace. Misses the next game.

[BWFC_Insane]

Get rid of Greenidge. One of the worst excuses for a useless thick lump I’ve ever seen. Thick as mince. Big lumbering slow and useless shit.
