Bolton play their promotion rivals from 2 seasons ago Sheffield united today in a 3pm ko at the uobs. Bolton trailed Sheffield that season as they won the league and last season as Sheffield just missed out on the play offs. A bit different today as Bolton sit in 3rd place with 3 wins and a draw, while Sheffield are 12th with 6 points. Only 4 games played and of course things can quickly change. Confidence is high and luck seems to be on our side at the moment, hopefully we can ride this and go level points with Middlesbrough who currently stand top of the league. Team news from various sources. O'Neil is doubtful and could be replaced by Murphy or new signing Joe Williams. Parky could shuffle his forward pack with Vela, ameobi and Buckley replacing noone, otzhumer and Wildschut or some combination of. Whatever the keeper, back 4 and Lowe which has brought 2 clean sheets in the last 2 games must stay unchanged as been outstanding so far this season apart from the Bristol game.

We have a striker is name is Connor Hall, He could be as good if not better as anyone else we are likely to be able to afford to pay the wages for. I would love us to get a good striker who could make a difference to our season but that seems very unlikely. Still, one and a half days left for Ken to prove me wrong.

PS. We should be using the transfer thread for the ins and outs.

A little hint in Parkys Preston pre match interview.
Ken’s trying very hard ,but if we don’t get there we will run with what we have, and Connor Hall will stay with the club.

Not kept much notice this week with one thing or another. A day of waiting to see if a club will loan a striker for the peanuts Ken is offering or not. There will be an after closed window quote the search goes on as out of work strikers are looked at. Maybe shola ameobi could then become a target?

"Let's get back on the front foot" says PP doesn't that front foot change all the time you know like most of us walk left then right with each foot being the front foot changing with each step.
I think that's a clue to another 5 changes at least for tomorrow.
Oh well I best walk front foot first back down to the loans ins and outs deadline day thread.
