    On the back of a good home win vs Reading, and away point at Leeds we host Bolton.

    Bolton were spanked at Reading, then dumped out the cup by Cardiff.

    Ngog has joined Swansea in this time. Bolton appear in a right old mess from the outside. Their wage bill is huge, with the club getting further into financial meltdown. They could be another that enter admin at some point in the next 2 / 3 years I feel.

    Anyway, onto the game. This won't be easy whatsoever. I don't think we'll lose this, but Bolton could warrant a point. It's a decent opportunity for us to put pressure on Reading in 6th. Shame Forest turned around a 0-2 start by Watford the other night!

    I'm going to stick my neck out and go for a 5-1 beatdown. An early goal from McG will send him on his way to a hattrick, with Hunt and Smith scoring the others. Bolton will score their goal early to make it evens which will spark the goalfest.

    0-0...a dull boring affair, and no attacking threat after the sale of McG to Swansea.

    They are buying all our rejects, you should have no problems, they were poor when they played us, can't defend and have the lazy Beckford up front.

    Just think everyone is worried about losing Didsy, the rest of our forwards are not giving us/me cause for confidence.!

    Murph has only scored 4 less than Dids this term and has played less... and started scoring later in the season

    Very underrated player given his overall contribution to the team

    But yes, if we were to lose Dids it would be a blow <ok>

    I'm going for a 4-0 win and best performance of the season against a hapless Bolton, Murphy, McGoldrick and Taylor x2 (as a sub)

    Are we going to play 4-3-3 today with our line up, or is Murphy going to play wide?

    Trotter In peace. I reckon this one will be tight but we're down to just ONE recognised striker who isn't even our player. Dougie's set out another 4-5-1 backs to the wall lineup and I suspect we'll defend deep all day and hope to nick something on the break but I'm not confident. I'll go for a 0 - 0 draw or you guys winning 1-0
