I am admitting I was wrong. I never thought that in my lifetime, would I see Annesley playing for our first team.

This lineup today…

Tomasson’s pregame remarks, are probably along the lines of, “go out & have fun, lads. Oh, and complete a pass or three, and no red cards. Who knows? We might even win!” 😂

In fairness, we're that bare at the back that should Louis get a knock tonight, we'll be calling up the lads who played CB in the Tony Parkes charity match from earlier in the year...

At least Jack Vale at 6' get the average height of our somewhat height challenged forwards up a tad.

6 ft 1 according to the internet.

What the hell is that?

[J*B]

We’ll lose tonight with that team. 

[West Yorks Rover]

Bolton have sold over 19,000 tickets for tonight's game against Villa, Venky's Rovers would struggle to sell half of that.

Hoilett in the last midweek game

Chapman and Smallwood tonight

We know who's going to score

It's the immutable law of the ex. 

Joao notched against us as well when we played Reading.

In fact, this is the second week in a row that we have played, midweek, away, against a team managed by an ex-Rovers manager and containing 3+ ex-Rovers players on the books (think it was 3 of them against Reading and 4 tonight).

The last one went badly...so for this one, fingers, legs and testicles crossed.

Should watch this then - looks like the u15s walking in. 

 

Yes, with the exception of BB-D, this looks like the youth group at church. 

[Tricky]

Can see us winning 2-1

That looks frightening on paper. Their big forward, Cook, will batter those two at CB. Chapman and Smallwood will be fired up, and Harratt is a good player too.

Just give 'em a game lads.

[TheWeasel]

Jesus wept thats one of the worst rovers line ups I've seen 

[simongarnerisgod]

it`s time for vale to show up,in the three appearances iv`e witnessed,he`s barely moved,let alone contributed anything,we should score a few goals with that line up,but alas,the worst rovers back four i think iv`e ever seen,will concede a few as well

[DavidMailsTightPerm]

Annesley is an,  international Morton has played for one of the countries biggest clubs in Europe. Keep the faith COYB

[davulsukur]

We're getting absolutely tubbed tonight.

[neophox]

The one positive....everyone gets their chance.... and the first team can rest up for saturday... Morton or Garrett at centre half?

Is the game on tv?

[neophox]

3-3

you forgot Dack....

[neophox]

Our front three along with Dack and Morton is surely league one standard at worst so we should match them in attacking... the defence is a concern.....

[Miller11]

Andy Cook for them is a proper old fashioned wily centre forward. He’s going to be a big danger.

Ok, who is going to be the first person to say something along the lines of “we don’t need another centre back, Morton can play there” between now and the end of the window?

Give me a C, give me an H, give me an A......
