    Brilliant result - never saw that one coming at all!!

    Let's beat Barnsley and get a few in early!!!

    Well you can live in hope!!

    PS - if Larry was still in charge I reckon we'd be cast adrift now!

    The lads will have been on the coach back, maybe even back by now, and it'll have been a massive atmosphere on the bus.

    They need to take that forward to the next game. Keep that buzz going.

    Coz, sure as **** that's what they'll be pumping into the Bolton squad on the way home tonight.

    Clean sheets! Clean sheets! Win games!!!

    Depends who you've got in mind mate.

    We have to keep it tight at the back. We're winning games by not conceding at the minute, rather than winning from the front. Without new blood I'd be reluctant to change.

    The young'uns out there have done well today, but, and I can't believe that I'm gonna say this, they need O'Shea alongside marshalling them.

    Do you have anyone in mind? Your knowledge of the young'uns is probably far better than mine, mate.

    Thats OK providing you have someone with pace alongside him. He is a good organiser but we need to pick back 4 now and try to stick with it.

    Were probably gonna have people leaving, people coming in over the next month and once again it will be new players trying to gel. We need pace and physicality and we need these players to hit the ground running just to avoid relegation this season and really push on next.

    I agree with all of that mate, and it'll be the young'uns who are providing that pace.

    I haven't read a write-up of the match yet, nor seen the stats, but I'm guessing that after we scored we pretty much parked the bus. Win ugly if you need to.

    I'm looking forwarding to seeing who Coleman can bring in.

    Kone and N'Dong will be off, tops £15 million for both but maybe £80k a week saved in wages. Shorts no mug other than his choice of managers.
    He won't let us go down KTF.

    It's his choice of chief execs and DoFs that has been his problem.

    If that were the case we'd still be in the PL.

    He wanted £175m for the club last year. He'd be lucky to get 175p now.

    I’m more thinking
    Instead of playing players out of position
    Maybe bring in a young one
    Players out of form it’s now like you say going to be difficult to introduce a young player after we win a game.
    If possible keep the same side but still don’t be afraid to give a young player a game when nessesarry.
    Players like embleton beadling Asoro majia need to be used
    Basically we need not to be afraid to play them
    The others have proved to be no better

    He started with Browning, Honeyman and Maja yesterday mate. Asoro and Embleton were on the bench. I didnt see Beadling listed. He may have been injured.

    We've got a manager who has no fear of playing the young'uns.which is refreshing to see and must really boost the confidence of the young'uns. Those who've already made and those on the fringes.

    Contradiction n terms that. He's been a mug due to his choice in management (not just manager but those employed with them too)

    Business wise he is a wealthy man. But that was made in business he knows. It's abundantly clear he knows little to nothing about football
