Back on the road for an inconsistent Bolton side which is doing just enough to hang in there in 5th position. Performances haven't been great recently but sheer bloody mindedness and late late goals are keeping things afloat until January when hopefully new signings will be made. The new meadow has been a happy hunting ground for Bolton. A 2-0 win on the way to promotion in 2017 was memorable plus a late late goal by Dion Charles won last season's game 1-0. Team news. Down to our last 18 first teamers. Out are Santos through illness, get well soon, Thomason long term, Dempsey maybe back next Saturday, Bodvarsson untill new year, Isgrove and Aimson had no news for a while. Several b team players out on loan reduces the options somewhat. Kick off 12.30.

Who's looking forward to Pizza on Tuesday night?
We could do with some lessons from Sam's old textbook.
Keep players fit, win the 2nd ball, get that 5 or 10% extra from everybody and set pieces.
I still say we could do with a psychologists and some of that technology we used to employ.

I'm looking at this side and we couldn't half do with a couple of experienced pros in key positions, centre back, midfield just to get a bit of nouse in there. 2-1 up should see it through, slow it down. Even characters on the pitch who react to situations better and quicker.

One of everything plus a few spares.
That's the new year shopping list done.
We are in need of a major refurb, we don't appear to have a core capable of being with us for more than a season or two.

Who's having a gargle and testing those vocal cords for tonight's Carol concert.
Will they be singing some of the favourite festive terrace tunes.
We could do with the classic Wanderers win away to jingle bells, a handy reminder IE and the players of what we are supposed to do.

Evatt says he has pinpointed where we went wrong. We were too direct in the latter period of the game.
He was on the touchline so why didn't he pass that message on to the team?
So, it's the Pizza Trophy tomorrow against the reds Under 21team. will we let them score first and make it difficult for ourselves?

IE needs to be careful playing with all those pins he keeps pointing.
Less of the "we had a chat about it" as well. Instead of talking about it they need to be doing the business.
Will our Pizza side will be younger than their U21 side!

Morley, sadlier, John and beck look like being available for the pizza cup match tomorrow. I'm failing my own fitness test and has it stands I'm not well enough to go tomorrow night. Very hopeful to be well embarrassed to go to the Exeter game on Saturday.

Swop as for has and enough for embarrassed then above will make sense. Doesn't help having to use an old phone at the moment.
