I disagree. This is the season. When we came up from league 2 I said a 3 yr build. Consolidate yr1, playoffs yr 2 then if we don’t get through the playoffs which we didn’t then we have to be getting promoted this season. If we don’t we will have to sell to balance the books and will lose the...
I’m not quite aboard hms… but as long as we can get santos back quickly we are in as good a position as we could have hoped for at this stage of the season. It’s in our hands but a long way to go yet.
Santos rumoured to be out for up to 6 weeks. That could genuinely affect our promotion chances now. If there was one player I didn’t want to lose other than maybe Baxter its him.
Our defence has been decimated. None of our first 5 choices are fit or available going into Barnsley with Toal...
I think we will want him as the slightly deeper more creative one of our front 2 when he plays. But it will be interesting to see whether that improves. He’s still got 8/9 assists this season. So 11/12 goal contributions in 23 starts which is still decent.
He clearly had a very good spell...
Which ones? Because imo Vic is our best finisher and we don’t get him in the right areas enough because he’s supporting Dion. I think Vic would score more than Dion if we got him into the box. Vic avgs 1.3 shots per game, Dion 3. Dion has 13 goals, Vic has 8 and doesn’t take pens.
I don’t...
Can’t see the Bodvarsson one tbh. Maybe in the summer but Evatt will want 5 strikers for the run in. We have so many injuries at the moment and Nlundulu is out for the season. We are in such a great position I don’t think he’ll risk letting him go.
Looks like Aaron Collins may well be getting done for around 750k. Been told he’s arrived at the Bolton Whites hotel … waiting for go ahead to do medical.
And goal record masks that. He’s always the one running off the ball or assisting the assister. He scored a really good goal against Carlisle that was ruled out incorrectly for offside too. Think he would be an asset to most at this level
Even if we get Collins I’d assume we’d need to get someone else in as well to let Bodvarsson go. I really would be surprised. The ball sticks to him so well. I think he’s a fantastic player for this level. Injuries have killed him being a key starter for us over the last 18 months but I wouldn’t...
Was only a few seasons ago pretty much at this exact date we were still 21st in league 2 and got promoted. You never know. Shame takeover and investment didn’t come during the summer.
Just someone I know around the club. He’s not always 100% but said that’s what he’s heard. He told me about Dapo to Germany before it was all public and Mendes Gomes. But a few spurious ones too. But it used to be so much easier to get info out the club but Evatt and Markham are much better at...
I was apprehensive about today and is the type of game we have struggled in, in recent years. But we’ve actually turned up first half and it’s been men against boys. Hopefully second half will be similar
Yep. You absolutely battered us that day and we got a 3-3. It was that comeback where our performances started to change and and in Jan we shot up the table from 21st to promotion.
