Dreadful. Without any positives at all. Fans were getting edgy after 20 minutes. Booed off at half time and deservedly so. Has to be a massive reaction second half. Need the sandblaster out to this lot. Over coddled. They need a few boots in some faces.

The Evatt love affair with Charles, Sheehan and JDC continues.

I can see why nobody bid for Charles in the transfer window. He plays too deep too often.

Simply put, we're playing like a bunch of gobbins. They play like they want to win, we play like we don't care. It's beyond depressing. Promotion? It'll take a miracle. not to get demoted. Rico ambles about like an add for holiday strolls in the sun. I'm hard pressed to mention one player whose impressed. I wish I could say playing, like a bunch of girls, but that would be insulting to the girls today, they would probably beat us. : evil:

Since signing for us only three players in top 4 divs have scored more. Halaand, May and Cook...Feed the goat.

This needs broad shoulders, we haven't got it. First 20 mins we got in behind and had some decent opportunities then Exeter had a few corners and we reverted to type. Sheehan is too soft for this League, ironically needs to be in a higher division to get the protection he needs. If we don't see Matete second half then I'll be surprised. It's one step forward and 2 steps back. Only player who comes out with a modicum of credit is Johnston. Actually looks like trying to beat a man and get the thing forward, JDC on the other side is a waste. Forino did more with one pass than he's done all half.

So angry being a Bolton fan at the minute.

Currently -2 Net on last season.

COYWM!!!

I agree with that but the way we are playing at the moment is not suiting him one bit. He is dropping deep to try and be involved and thats not working. Stay up top and make them think, he is picking up the ball within 5 yards of the half way line and getting nowhere.
Anyway here they are for the 2nd half . Hope I can get out of my seat this half.

Think this sums it up. Players seemingly apathetic over the situation rather than feeling the need to address the problems of last season.

Take the bull by the horns and go out and win games.

Get them a psychologist dammit. Clearly a mentality thing going on with the squad.

Another soft free kick resulting from our corner. Referee not giving any benefit of the doubt here. I'm calling some of these before it happens.

No such free kick from their corners as we concede another goal.

Fkin typical.

Maybe that spare squad place might be useful for a new manager to fill… it can’t go on like this.

Our form since January just hasn't been good enough. Not 2 ppg.

It'd be a shame if Evatt did go without getting us promoted, but we're reaching that stage of the season where the management might start thinking its the only way to save the season.

Stockport and Wrexham joint top of the league. Newly promoted sides doing better than ourselves clearly shows something's wrong.

Needs the pep talk. Clearly something needed to happen to get them to pull their finger out.
