I understand sky stopped showing. Baxter made an astonishing save. Easy man of match. Great win.

Ah well sky. I didn't fancy watching the last 4 minutes anyway.

Watched it all, there was a fracas between both sets of players after the final whistle, I'm not sure how it satrted.

I saw the celebration of Baxter's save on soccer Saturday after switching over rather quickly.

So in the end it was Evatt's substitutions that made the difference. We found an extra gear after them.

Could be in with another season of coming on strong in the latter stages.

Usual footballers being footballers I expect. Though their manager is a big old whingebag. Ours ain't a stranger to that either.

That gives us a good start to the season, Let's hope that we can keep it up.

You are right there.

Their player taking out Lolos was a disgrace that was what it about and evatt was right to have a go at the ref. Until they start showing red cards players will get ankle injuries. Happened to Toal at Wembley, happened to Maghoma at wembley. These thugs and league one is full of them and get away with it.

So Forrester is out injured for the foreseeable having fallen down the stairs, breaking a toe and dislocating another.

Dozy sod, the player should take care in everything that they do. Their lively hood depends on them keeping fit.

Cones, accidents at home, in training etc. Evatt should have a session on avoiding silly accidents and being careful whatever you are doing. It's just common sense.

Bit late putting this on. Rip. Bolton captain when I started watching. Scored the first ever goal I saw at burnden. Saw him loads of times at the burnden 7s even played against him once. Also had monteraze pub with big Sam on Manchester Road which used to go in on match days. So sad aged.77.

So another of the old guard has departed this world. RIP Roy Greaves. I remember him well, he was a good player for us and he always gave 100% he will be sadly missed.

77 is no age these days, I'm only a year younger than him but hopefully, I will be around for a while. I have things to do and look forward to.

RIP
Roy Greaves

I wasn't expecting to hear that sad news. His name used to be pre-printed on the team sheet. It's hard to think of a team from that era without him in it.

Evatt wants to win every game, don't we all?

However, last season's cup games contributed to the build-up of games at the crucial point of the season and it had a direct influence on the position we ended up in.

I would sooner we dipped out of the cup games and concentrated on the main prize. The last two seasons were full of postponements because we were involved in what seems to me now as pointless games in cup competitions. Ditch them and concentrate on promotion.

I know cup games can be useful for bringing players up to speed after injuries, but that said, players coming off the bench is also useful for giving players time on the pitch.
