Bolton take a break tonight from the grind of league one football with a trip to selhurst park for the 3rd round replay an 8pm kick off. Got to be settled on the night, extra time and penalties. I have a draw at full time at 3/1 so if im right then its going to be a late night. A place in the 4th round at home to Manchester City awaits the winners. Team news. With palace only out of the bottom 3 on goal differnce Big sam is expected to ring the changes as he prioritises the weekend game v everton which to me gives Bolton a sniff but only if they can take their chances. Bolton have no new injury problems. As usual talk of resting/rotating the squad but I expect an unchanged team. No tv coverage as the bbc have selected Lincoln v Ipswich for some bizarre reason.

Darren pratley has been ruled out fpr the season. Keshi anderson has been loaned to Northampton. As we have to play them at home you know what will happen there !

What is it again
Promotion to get investment
or
Investment to get promotion
Being in a league where the winners are traditionally high scoring teams do you think we can make it with our policy of avoiding hitting the barn door.
I'm beginning to feel we are at the crossroads and about to take a wrong turn resulting in us falling away. Why didn't we field an experimental frontline last night or rested more first team players. Shall I ask the Bradford fans for their opinion ?

Who's good at sums I nominate Benny !
Wilko and Amos are confusing me I don't know if I should count them in the returning loans column Wilko I'm sure he counts as one of the 23 man squad Amos could be last minute entry I still can't manage to juggle enough room to allow us to sign anybody until we know what is happening with Amos.
What would happen if we brought players in to make it 23 and then had to count a last minute returning player and nobody wanted to take one of our players on loan would we go over the 23 and go bust like in pontoon ? there are no rules for this what would we have to do shoot a sick lame and lazy player to bring the numbers into line.
Don't forget SPF50 and a knotted hanky for the Southend trip

Everybody is busy in L1 with in's and out's going on meanwhile back at the Macron with nothing better to do except fiddle with his list and check his pay packet Lee will be putting on even more weight.

Could do worst than give Wilkinson a game tomorrow to see how he does. Wasn't good a year or 2 back. One in one out at the mo. Room to bring ameobi back but no other.

Better late than never in the Beano they missed the National bus a long time ago I doubt they'll catch up with the token effort today.
There'll be plenty of Wi-Fi at the Macron if Chairman Ken bans the Beano for daring to raise such subjects in the press this morning it'll be interesting to see if the Beano can keep it up and one day perhaps do a real piece of journalism on the state of affairs.
