Match Day Thread Bolton v Leeds Utd Match Thread

Millwall and Bolton play the big hoof,up to big guys up front,not that many others do that.

 

Thought Pennington was very classy and assured. Unfortunately he'll probably be out for at least a month if not more. The way he went over on his ankle usually leads to ligament damage which means a serious amount of recovery time.

 

Spot on,
We do have less games to win than our friends from bermondsey(germany) then.
Happy days.

 

Could just be a twisted ankle.

 

Agreed... Lots of positives but plenty to work on.

 

It's more the set pieces that worry me and all the teams send up the cavalry for those. I do take your point though and it will be interesting to see how we cope with teams who adopt a more cultured approach.

Guess we'll find out soon enough as Fulham at home coming up.

 

Once he limped off it was less secure agreed.
Lots of positives, but as we all said the defence is an area that could be an issue.
We have some presence, either the shirts give an optical illusion or we have some big units. Looked massively bulked up compared to Bolton.. This is good.

 

Anita looked tiny on tv but won everything.Who the fook is Taylor.

 

Taylor was coasting all last year, when he got a game... No loss at all.

 

Defence is definitely the issue.

Also I have concerns about Phillips but his role must have changed from last season as he was in the box to score from Woods pass. That would have never happened under Monk so prepared to wait and see how he develops.

 

Think it might have anything to do with Millwall playing Bolton next? He must be bricking it - certainly won't want to slag them off in case they take the points at the Den on Saturday.

 

Had a little 2 pint bet with him,who would score the most against them us or millwall.

 

It'll be 2 litres of Germany's finest in a bierkeller in Berlin where the wallies are currently residing

 

Travelled yesterday, flight delayed, got here early hours of this morning, tired family all now in bed. Logged on to absorb the feel good factor of the best start we could hope for and this is everywhere wtf has happened?? Two people I consider match day mates but really??

The good news is I had the chance to read the paper on the plane and saw an article about Europecar setting aside £40 million for compensation for conning people about false damage to cars. Got conned by those ****ers for £1k three years ago when I hadn't hit so much as a moth in the two weeks we were in Italy - getting on board that one and hope anyone else on here conned by the treacherous ****ers does the same.

Oh, and evening all

 

Are you that wise bloke off Karate Kid?

 

Damned if he does, damned if he doesnt.

Jock thinks I am Oscar Schindler and wants me to write a list apparently.

 

Possibly...is that you Daniel ?

 

Unless you're in Cyprus for the first two games

 

Yes master - wax on, wax off

 

Genuinely missed where this all kicked off again - wtf??
