So in Recent seasons Luton, Rotherham, Doncaster and maybe Lincoln have gone from non league to the championship in 5 seasons.
Yet supporters from those clubs are saying Bolton cannot go from Lge 2 to mid table in league 1
I thought the was some clueless fuckers in lge 2 but it seems lge 1 supporters are surpassing themselves
The difference being, we've all evolved our squads for the next division whereas yours in untried at this level.

I think that's the gist, having scan read and waded through all the bullshit in said thread. People have questioned the squads strength, not the Club.

This post in a nutshell explains why you get so much criticism. Your second sentence makes a perfectly rationale point. Then you undermine your credibility and argument with unnecessary invective.

I didn’t expect Lincoln to do as well as they have since being promoted so I wouldn’t completely rule out Bolton doing something similar.
The only thing I will say is that Charlton have wealthy new owners who will be throwing a few bob at it.
The same applies to Ipswich. I expect them to spend big by league one standards.
Pompey, Sunderland and Wednesday are big clubs at this level and will undoubtedly be there or thereabouts again.
All in all I expect next season’s league one will be much tougher than this.

Somebody start a crowdfunder to get this little weirdo a woman or whatever he likes.
He is clearly lacking love.

Ollie Turton and Harry Davis were the two players I couldn't stand during the Davis years. So the own goal double is now on thanks to Turton's cock up! One from Harry tomorrow will do nicely.

"Where's this come from?" Asks the Sky Sports commentator, having spent most of the game talking about how Blackpool have been utterly dominant.

Lincoln need to get themselves back into this quickly and stop Blackpool building any more momentum than they already have with that second goal.

Unlucky Lincoln lot. We've had our ding dogs with you lot in the past on here, but it's fucking shite losing a playoff final so chins up, lads. You can take heart from the fact that you've got a good manager and it's quite likely you'll be up there again next season.

Well pleased for Blackpool as I've got close mates who are Pool and they've been quality for the last 3-4 months.

Congratulations to Blackpool. Probably the deserved winners in the end and good to see them get back to the Championship after their troubles of the past few years. Would have been great to see Lincoln make it to the second tier so soon after escaping non-league football, and hopefully they can keep a lot of that squad together and push on again next season.

Congrats to Blackpool, unlucky Lincoln losing any playoff final is gutting especially as you’ve had a great season in strange times. Fairly sure you guys will be up there again next time around.

Hard luck Lincoln but still a massive achievement to be where you are now from where you were 5 years ago, shame that we didn’t decide to follow your path.

Well where was the quality in that................Some great individual performances in Yates especially ...The lad who scored 2 was ok goals apart.........Grant one piece of brilliance The two wingers from Lincoln who they had on loan from Man City, Forest decent
Thought the Ginger up front for Lincoln who came from Northampton and came on for the last 30 was a handful without threatening. Same with Scully.....................Give us 3/4 top loan signings next season i am upgrading from mid table to play offs

Out of the team that got us into League 1 only one player was still with us when we got promoted to the Championship, being able to get promoted out of League 2 is all well and good but you need more to take the next step

Blackpool deserved over the 90 minutes, but still an incredible season. To compete as well as we have, given the circumstances has been a superb effort. But ultimately the three above us were a) better quality in their squads and b) had more finance available.

Everything feels very measured and planned at this end and this is just year one of that so we feel fairly well placed. You'd expect the likes of Portsmouth, Charlton, Ipswich etc to get their act together but I still think we'll be competitive albeit I don't think we'll be top two competitive again.

Only a 5 week turnaround I imagine so it'll soon be pre-season!
