Predictions. Form is temporary...

...class is permanent they say.

Well, with one win in 2 months and and 13 games at what point do we cross the line between temporary and permanent?

City lie equal bottom of the form table over the last 8 matches - with 4 draws and 4 defeats, and Bolton sit proudly on the top of the same table - with 6 wins and 2 draws.

I actually predicted Bolton to finish top of the table before the season started and was surprised when Owen Coyle failed to deliver and was dismissed. I was equally surprised by their choice of Dougie Freedman, but he appears to have brought the good times back to Bolton and they are now living up to pre-season expectations.

What will this mean for tomorrow's match?

Surely, we've got to win sometime. Foolishly, optimistically I'm going for a 2-1 win. And please, please someone sit on Nugent in the last 3 minutes and keep him well away from our area.

Predictions please...

=========================================

On paper, it would suggest that we (Bolton) should win easily.

However, as someone once observed, the game is played on grass, not paper......

Surely Bolton will sweep us aside?! Nugent wouldnt be on the pitch if it was up to me.

All that aside im also going for a leicester win due to the ridiculous nature of the championship and imagine if we do win we'll be top 6.

I predict a 2 - 2 draw for this one. Leicester are a pretty good outfit with a never say die attitude and with the play off spots so tight I suspect both teams could make a few jittery mistakes.

Hopefully it will be a good game and I'd love a trotters win but with this season having some of the weirdest results I've ever seen I just think a draw is the safest bet.

Hopefully our past tendencies to help sides out who arent in the best of form wont rear its head tomorrow night. Think it will be 1-1

Well, I think come wednesday morning we'll be look towards next season. What a rubbish time to face Bolton.

Our 1 saving grace is that Bolton's away record isn't great, only 4 wins and 19 points collected. Also 37 goals conced. One of the worse records in the division.

Here is hoping it continues

Under Pearson class is temporary and form is permanent.
Well it seems like it recently anyway.

On the positive side of things, we could be due a nice weekend in Bournemouth next season.
Just hope its not in the middle of winter.
