What happened to Bolton ? Did I Miss something?



Going to my 1st away game this saturday, away at Blackburn, will be close to 4k tickets sold, 5:30 kick off live on Sky, with no train service(nor coach replacement) into Blackburn, having to get off at Preston. Great Turnout

Even if I did get "done over" in buying the ticket, the lad I normally go with my text me "£40 blackburn away, travel included" so I said yeah 100% .... turns out it was his ticket, he can't go as he has work and I'm now going with his cousin who I don't know ! :O

Bolton was reported to be going into administration and as such receive point deductions and another transfer embargo, but their chairman said they've avoided that for now.

Ah, I knew they had money problems, I'm sure there players went on strike for a bit not too long ago.

Didn't realise anything had happened in the past week though, hope they get it all sorted a friend of RS from a long time ago was a Bolton fan so have got a soft spot for them

Well, not the greatest away day.

I really really am struggling to even think about watching another 90 minutes of the style Bruce has us playing. These players should be taking the game to every single team in this division.

Probably didn't deserve to lose but in the end was lucky not too lose.

Rotherham at home tonight, don't win and I imagine it could be the end of Bruce.


I can't be arsed going, waste of a season ticket! ;) ...Mid weeks games kill me, don't get back till mid night and work at 6AM is a good enough excuse, aint it ?!

Well we scraped past Rotherham and offered nothing much against Sheffield Wednesday

Except from an absolute worldie from Super John McGinn....If you haven't seen it ... where have you been ?!

Best strike I've seen in person



Bruces days are numbered though

If you want a good source of comedy, I recommend trying out the Reddevils Reddit whenever they lose. Manchester United has been a circus that keeps on giving, since Alex Ferguson retired.

McGinn's strike was great. Definitely worth checking out if you haven't seen it already.

I saw FIFA were trying to tackle agents and the loaning system. Chelsea loaning out forty odd players probably was a big catalyst in that decision. Everyone knows agents are a blight too. So that's two things I agree that need changing, even though I detest FIFA.

As for Chelsea loanees. Mason Mount really does look like a talent, if his development continues this well, then I can actually see him getting a chance at a big club sooner than later.

I don't see a problem with Chelsea loaning out all these players, as long as they're getting valuable experience?

Everyone would soon be complaining if these players were being left to rot in the youth/reserves.

I've never used Reddit but have heard about it, I find that online isn't the best place to get the general opinion around football clubs! The negativity online after defeats is 10x worse than when talking to people who actually go, the same goes for radio phone ins.


Mason Mount has had a very decent start for Derby and Wilsons freekick last night was a corker

Very true, unfortunately :(
I really had hope when Mourinho joined them but he's making so many awful decisions and his style of play has dragged the team down.
Who's the cat that won't cop out when there's danger all about?
