BBC have got us at the bottom of the score listings (after Watford) as well! What's going on, was the game late kicking off?

8pm as standard at Bolton. All others 745pm

yes 8.00

Mackie started lively it seems. But same issue is appearing as previous games. No one capable of applying a finish to an attacking move.

Yes - We kicked off at 8pm whilst the other Champ matches started at 7.45pm

[Sutekh]

Bolton already had to make two substitutions with MacNaughton and Wheater going off. Also a question mark on whether Mills should have been sent off

[Blue Blood]

Need to score whilst we are on top which we have failed to do most of the season

As always!!

Still unusual to see Sky not start to show the score until nearly 8.10 and the BBC being too lazy to put our game in alphabetical order!

Two enforced defensive subs for Bolton.

Generally when teams make early enforced subs against us the player coming on has a blinder. At least these are in defence with less influence except need to be watched at set pieces.

If it's Mills then the answer is yes.

We appear to be narrowing in on Mills, but showing some American like targetting. We'll catch him amongst the collateral damage soon enough.*






I'm not serious obviously.

For ***'s sake let's not get him sent off. You know how we perform against 10 men!!!

Lets be honest we could do with Matt Mills now. Would be a good partner for Hector. Plus we need a leader in that defence and its not Alex Pearce

Not for me thanks. A leader yes, a liability no

We already have a liability. His name is Alex Pearce.

Think that's what the BBC usually do, putting the games in time order.

Any feedback on how we are playing? It seems pretty even on the Beeb's Stats!

Do me a favour. Mills is a nutter and the last thing we need. He's done sweet FA since he left us and he wasn't much cop despite his obvious potential talent whilst here. Pearce is superior. Mills is probably the worst leader we've had in over a decade. And a total tosser.

A total tosser, what because he left to join his hometown club who looked a better shout than we did for promotion at the time? Pearce is not superior, far from it. He is a walking accident waiting to happen. Mills brought me confidence in defence, Pearce does not. What's more, Mills can actually kick a ball properly.

Sounds like we're playing quite well, a little fragile at the back, but the usual story of not being able to finish their dinner, let alone a shooting opportunity.

Closing in on 1 league goal scored in 495 minutes (ie. 5 and a half games)

Thanks IR! As you say - the usual story!!
