A change of competition and a trip to Shrewsbury in an early kick off. 5.30pm. A league one fixture last season but not played due to you know what. Bolton sit 3rd in the group of 4, 3 points behind Shrewsbury and 6 behind crewe. A defeat tonight Bolton are out, a draw and lose the penalty shoot out bolton are out. Bolton simply have to win or at least win the penalty shoot out in case of a draw to stay in the competition. Team news drawn from various sources. Jones joins the long term injured list which includes politic, Edwards and faal. The short term list isgrove, Miller, greenidge, baptiste are out tonight. Evatt will ring the changes within the rules of the competition whatever they are. Senior and Darcy have been promised a start.

I suppose that IE didn't want any injuries to his first team players. Matters are bad enough without risking players in a micky mouse trophey game. Besides which, hopefully, they will be better rested for Saturday's game and give us something to smile about.

two long term outs in two games I was watching the Shrews game and noticed how we are passing into a player facing them leaving it ripe for somebody going up the back of them or they have have to make a turn sharpish to to be able to release the ball or make some space. That's asking for bad injury news
It's alright playing the touch and move game game but you need to create some space for yourself and know where you are going to play the ball before you get it not get it in a tight spot as we seem to be doing.

are we going to get our own special yellow ticker tape day on iFollow? best prepare for a few groans as those who didn't gain a high enough score according to the super computer are farmed on loan.
Is there a chance there are any players out there who are fit and up to speed to help us out Alexa burst into flames when I asked her.

That kid was a massive example of smashing it up in the youth and not being able to mix it with the adults.
It's no co-incidence that he's failed at every level at adult football bar the depths of non-league.

ah it's Friday again and another big build up to a match in front of a screen with our wonderful local commentators.
What can we tinker with on the team sheet for this weekend

Personally, I would deport all four of them back to Iran. No if's no but's. They had the chance of a good life in the UK but chose to abuse their privilege. In addition, I would seize all of their assets as they have been gained by illegal means.
I see Evatt is still prattling on about not being able to have fans in the stadium. Is this getting in an early excuse in case we lose the game? “We need to start making it more of a fortress,” he said. “It’s frustrating and strange that so many away teams are getting results at the moment and it must be down to not having crowds in stadia. I'm getting tired of reading this same line. We are in the same boat as every other team.

What's the likelihood of us managing to book a delivery slot for a player or two before tomorrows kick off? or will we wait until we have agreements on some going out on loan with money being tight all over we could end up stuck with a few players who we couldn't find a loan club for.

I'm sure that the prospect of bringing in any new players will be subject to being able to loaning some players out. It's interesting that Evatt has reeled back on recruiting new players although he hasn't ruled it out.
The team needs to be positive and focussed today. We are playing a team that has missed three weeks of training and they have not played a game for three weeks. Surely with the right desire and attitude, we can secure all three points and move up the table.
