Interesting bunch aren't they?Massive club. Hugely decorated. 4 times FA Cup winners. Drawing with Bayern Munich in Europe 12 years ago. We're privileged to be playing them and this is our cup final.... Exert almost all their energies all night singing about Doncaster Rovers.We were scared to play them once they got a proper team together and wanted an easy win against their kids, they'll beat us home and away..... but now, we "only" beat them 2-1.And my favourite - "your ground's too big for you"... sang by 518 in a 3000 capacity stand, away from their home ground of 28,000 where they average 11,000.
We missed a chance to put 4-5 past them and instead made them look a decent side . We gifted them goal and they had more shots on target . They left having just made us look like amateurs. DM needs to breed some ruthlessness into the team , we are playing sh** at home and it’s not going to be long before we slip down the league if the last two performances are any thing to go by .
One of my favourite parts of last night was the whole lot of them chanting "We're Bolton Wanderers, we'll play when we want"....and all of us completely ignoring it. lol
Fair play guys enjoy your win last night but I think you’ll find our singing last night was more irony than bragging. Let’s face it, we have nothing to brag about, we are going to be a L2 club next year when with any luck you’ll be in the Championship.I think had we got a result against Coventry, it would have at least doubled our numbers last night but losing in the last minute after nearly winning was the final straw of our salvation. We have some dipsticks who like to make insulting comments but the majority actually agreed it was wrong to cancel our game in Bolton and that you should have had the points.Anyway, now that you’ve seen how bad we are that should give you confidence for our next encounter. As far as recovering is concerned, it wouldn’t matter how rich our owners are because we can’t pay loan fees or transfers until 2022 so we just need to survive until then, which we will. Once that’s sorted, make no mistake, there is significant money available for us to build a new team to hopefully rise up the league again.Genuinely I wish you luck, you’re a revitalised club, have a good, sensible board and in my opinion a very good and capable manager. So best of luck for the rest of the season and I hope any future games between us are less acrimonious.
