Bolton Match Thread

[SST]

Pre match in here please

[hakeeeeb]

SCUNTHORPE should have made a move for IAN EVATT.

[WonderGoals]

Kev is out so Olomola upfront with Loft in my opinion. I suspect knowing Cox he will go with Loft and Hallam or McAtee in the no 10 role.

I’d personally like to see how Olomola and Loft work together.

[Ferrite]

Don’t disagree but do you think Loft will definitely start or be rested?

[Sanfran49]

At what game minute will we opt to go 541 ? Provided we are winning of course.

[MK Iron]

The same minute that we start winning Sanfran. Still games are getting a bit easier to watch until we do score.

Hoping for an entertaining game with a clean sheet and a 95th minute winner from the Iron.

[BigLeftToe]

One thing that’s for sure is Eoin Doyle scoring against us, so we need to score a minimum of two to be in with a shot of winning!

[cassidystash]

Will we have enough shots to score 2?

[MK Iron]

Both will have to go in Cass

[DarrynStampGoalMachine]

Not playing 442 at the start 4 points from 8 games.

Switch to 442 7 points from 3 games.

Seem like a great idea to return to 3 at the back.

What are we doing?

[Matty]

It was nice while it lasted :(

[MK Iron]

If we have to do this 5 at the back sh1t then why not drop the right back that had his best ever game last time out and play an out of position winger there instead.

If Boris was a football manager then this would be the kind of clear thinking he would come out with.

[cassidystash]

Absolutely un*******believable Jeff!!!!!
Now a must-win game for the manager, nothing else will justify that selection.

[Awaywego]

In Cox we trust.

[Stuart]

Is he going to play Bedeau or McGahey at RB with Green partnering Lift up top in a 442 formation?

[Northumbiron]

Perfectly good RB on the bench and either Gilliead or Green having to play out of position at RB/RWB when both offer more in attack!

One up top at home? And that one is Loft!

Good job we can use five subs!

[Random]

So we are back to the formation of one up top, which has produced far more defeats than victories. Really hope cox has it right as am not convinced.

[MK Iron]

Yes but we are playing a top team.

Oh hang on just checked the League 2 table and they are nearly as crap as us.

[Stuart]

Well as CT typed if it’s 541 after recent improvement playing 442 then Cox has no excuse if it goes wrong. Gives the wrong impression and a boost to the opposition.

[waltersleftfoot]

Again we are thinking about the opposition,hope I am wrong time will tell

[waltersleftfoot]

FGS why change a winning formation 4 4 2 we are playing at home

[RoamingBull]

Yep the players getting used to a set formation then we completely change things and we are chasing shadows. Two throw ins and poor marking allowing a free shot

[Cliff Byrne’s Right Peg]

A half of two halves.
Reassuringly we look to have grown in the game and look a threat from set plays.

Got to keep their number 18 quiet, pulling the strings for them.

[Nori Man]

I really don’t understand….

1) Young full back growing in confidence & stature with every game, so he drops him??? 🤪

2) Performances improve in last three games by playing 442, so we revert to a formation that provided dire results earlier in the season!!! 🤯

[vader]

Cox is way out of his depth, once again sets up as though he’s frightened of the opposition, also many of the players are just not good enough.

Just don’t present a threat.

[RoamingBull]

No KVV No nous

[premier iron]

If you bring olemola and hyppolyte then you are giving the game away

[RoamingBull]

Say it again. Our bench offers nothing.

Our defence looks weaker with bedeau in there.

[DarrynStampGoalMachine]

I’m confused? I thought if you had a one goal lead with 20 mins left you weren’t allowed to attack anymore?

Bolton still have players in our half?

[waltersleftfoot]

We’re lucky to get nil
