1-0. Afobe great work from Petrov

[DJBlu]

1-0 Afobe

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Five secones of class from Petrov, confident finish

[TANGODANCER]

Afobe did well, got through from a petrov ball and rounded the keeper to score. COME ON YOU WHITES...

[Mitch]

Oh yes, come on let's get some confidence building done!

[TANGODANCER]

Crawley straight back and get a corner, cleared and Afobe wins a free kick. Nothing gained and Crawley come again but Lonergen does well and clears. Crawley working the ball and not crossing it. Good move from us and Riley gets a cross in. Petrov does like wise and we get a throw. Free to Crawley and Alonso gets a card for throwing the ball away.

[IggyTheDawgster]

Afobe! Afobe! He took it round the goalie!!

[TANGODANCER]

Sounds like we're putting some moves together and Afobe just offside. Alonso linking with Petrov but Crawley get a handball against Eagles. No yellow, phew. Free kick 30 yds out to Crawley but goes high and wide.

[TANGODANCER]

Eagles still lively and a penalty shout on Afobe gets turned down. Afobe making his presence felt up front. Crawling playing it around at the back . Zat Knight escapes a handball shout and we were lucky not to get penalised Crawley pushing well now but Lonergen calm enough. Free to us comes to nowt and Pratley gives away a free.

[Turkish Trotter]

Knight is our best player so far, good anticipation and composure under pressure

BWFC:
Jovial cheers as Zat Knight has a pop from all of 35 yards after Keith Andrews' free-kick had come back off the Crawley wall. Knight's effort cleared the stand and the ball is now somewhere in Crawley town centre.

[TANGODANCER]

Some scratchy play from them lets us get a couple of attacks in. Free to us in the hot-spot area and .....Andrews hit the wall and it's a goal kick. Good chance missed there and Knight says hello to outer space.. Free to them in our half but Lonergen comes and takes it. Eagles wins a throw as half time looms. Riley offside. Bolton seem in control better now and an attack leads to a throw in to them. 3 mins extra time. Commentator seem happy with our performance. Petrov and Alonso seem to be linking up well enough. Afobe get a shot in as Whites push. Half time. 1-0 us.

Thnks for the first half updates TD! Much appreciated!

[plymouth wanderer]

Same here TD

[TANGODANCER]

Second half starts with Crawley to roll it. Good news is Tower have every Bolton game this season. Torres off for them. Early goal kick in front of 2,500 apparently. Bolton attacking, Davies, Petrov, and a lack of control gives a goal kick to Crawley. Crawley come forward and get a couple of crosses in but only a goal kicj results. Andrews feeds Davies, then Riley comes forwards, Mark Davies feeds Petrov after good work from Andrews. Crawley again and the clearance looks for Afobe who seems full of it. Andrews, Riley, and....Afobe pulls one down but is offside. Andrews really figuring, then a Crawley shot goes wide after Alonso gets beaten. Corner us and Knights header cleared off the line. We're really pushing but need to watch the breaks.

[Salford Trotter]

We're just lacking the killer touch in front of goal. Riley playing a blinder at the back. Afobe off Sordell on

[TKIZ!]

Afobe off with an injury, hope it's not too serious. Obi-Wan to force his way back into the team on Saturday?

[TANGODANCER]

Afobe getting Attention, then comes off to be replaced by Sordell. One sub left.

[bettyrasta]

We should have a whip round for this TD!
