Tavares missing again this time “with illness “ sigh pointless signing

It beat Leeds so it may have had a chance today.

God that midfield is something today

That side would also lose today. But only by 1 instead of 4

Bolton have a new generation of fans all across Adlington, Horwich, Blackrod towards Wigan, Farnworth etc and of course Chorley. Very much the choice of team for young locals in those areas if you aren't going to glory hunt and they pulled them in on the back of relegation to league 1 with pricing the product correctly. Look at their away followings as well, mostly young people, they struggled to bring 2k to Ewood plenty times in the Prem. We are a joke.

The club seems happy to portray a feeling of hard luck regarding injuries. Dont buy it. Carter and Wharton getting injured was predictable. Toth, Cantwell and now a small injury to Tronstad, fine its annoying. The main reason for our chronic lack of squad depth is dreadful recruitment. You look midweek or on the bench today, the likes of De Neve, Henriksson, Baradji, Tavares etc. Players not capable or who havent contributed at the correct standard. We also had a self inflicted squad limit below the one that the football league enforces.

Well......at least we don't have to worry about seeing Tavares.

The more money Pasha wants to save the greedier our players get. 🤔🧐

Indeed it does, They both had loans (& gametime) at tier 6 last season too, but yes, I assumed you meant for Rovers, and your point is completely valid anyway

I think the list of "greedy players" will be further expanded upon over the next 6 months or so

I knew you'd be there to correct me. 🙂 The overall point still stands though.

And of the others Ohashi is literally the only one who hasn't been speculated to be the next forced out the door.

Don't exaggerate 🙂 Atcheson has 17 minutes from 2 cup appearances

But they were all greedy & wanted paying too much, what are the odds eh?

venkys have chopped it off and we are now a fooballing eunuch

A very big insult. 3 LB's and 2 young CB's (who I dont think have played a minute at senior level) on the bench! Holy Cow Batman!

30th November 2024: Pears Brittain. Hyam. Batth. Pickering Tronstad. Travis Dolan. Cantwell. Beck Ohashi

As a certain Scotsman once of the parish said..we are weeing with the willy we have. Its very shrivelled though.

yes

I agree. Many people who live in the 'Bolton area' probably live as close to Old Trafford as they do to the Breezeblock, which is closer to Wigan than Bolton. There's load of people in Blackburn who glory hunted toward the likes of Manchester and Liverpool, so it's surely worse in Bolton, given how much closer it is to Manchester. Bolton has also lost much of its identity in recent years as a town in its own right, instead being part of 'Greater Manchester'. I think that probably makes it difficult to attract younger fans. As you say, our two clubs have had similar sized attendances over the decades until quite recently. They have good owners and a good pricing strategy. We have terrible owners and a poorer pricing strategy, which isn't the worst in the league, but it's not as good as theirs.

I was too busy excitedly finding my favourite "all things Rovers related" gif/jif thingy to even notice the error

Not many teams have to patch up the starting 11 and bench BEFORE the hectic Christmas schedule. We play better away from home, but this one screams of being a stinker for us.

This Rovers lineup… I’m not sure I like the looks of it. I guess it’s the best Ismael can do.

When I saw you’d quoted me I thought you’d be pointing out my error which I was trying to hide with an edit 😁😁 (Atcheson also played)

Wrexham.
