WH if they want promotion have to tighten up at the back, far too many chances given away, tbh that wasn’t a penalty either IMO.

We just cannot play like buccaneet style up and down the field, it’s suicidal.

Up till now what is the point of Pablo, he’s done nothing, but these games are exactly what I expected, it’s a difficult job promotion.

True, but at least we are getting some entertainment.
Poor old Pablo was awful, his touch is soooo poor.

At least he seems to have stopped parking the bus when in the lead.

Just what is it about Pablo? I just don't get it. Not even if he's doing an old mate a favour or if Pablo is shagging his daughter. The bloke is useless and contributes nothing. These apologists can try and point out that he's important to the team, but bloody hell! Just watch his performance and contribution.

If you're seeing something different to me, please let me know what drugs you are on. I'll give them a try.

Pablo has got to be one of the worst striker signings ever. He is woeful, not even sure he is League 2 level. Dreadful player, makes my eyes bleed!

Still think we'll win this league comfortably.

Not defending like that, we won't, sorry. Bolton make a game out of nothing over crap, marking, and allowing the ball to run free. In the first half, defenders were too slow on second balls. In the second half, we sharpened up; that was the difference (that was no penalty either).



Whilst we can score goals, you cannot rely on the attack scoring 3/4 every game to win it, never going to happen. We were far too lax at the back in the first half, it was much better managed in the second half.

WTD, I've made a comment re Pablo time gone past, I played and later managed conference level team.

There is no way he makes that team apart from harrowing.
He contributes nothing, he should have been sent out on loan somewhere, anywhere!

I do not understand what people see in him, I'm mystified.

Very entertaining and hard fought win away on a wet Tuesday in Bolton. These games are always going to be the tough ones. Nothing to complain about from what I saw.

Tough? It was Bolton Wanderers, not Barcelona! On form alone, we should have eaten them for breakfast. Yes, three points in the bag, but we made hard work of it. On performances like that, we're going to struggle to get promoted.

Our defending was woeful at times, and we're fielding a team of nine players, a character from Snow White in goal, and a striker who has no idea what to do when he gets the ball. ?

It was good to see that we didn't shut up shop after going one ahead, and Mavropanos looked like his confidence was returning. Also, the new players looked promising. I think, as I write, we are top of the table. COYI!

I think we were lucky that Bolton really went for it, and fair play to them for doing so after losing 4 on the bounce.
There are quite a few positives to take.
Bowen finding more form and his shooting boots.
Most of the new players are doing well, Engels is now starting to play. I thought the 2 new youngsters had poorish games.
3 points.
Top of the league.

Negatives.
The defence.
KWP was very poor.
Scarles was poor, with really poor crossing, but I thought he came into it more.

The centre backs were their shaky selves, with the odd decent moment. The keeper did okay, but is too little.
Most of the rest were good and bad, unfortunately with the exception of Pablo, who is totally out of his depth, and it stuck out like a sore thumb.
You could be right, Brooking, but far too early to make a statement like that. If we win our next 2 league matches against Wrexham and Millwall, then you may have a good shout.

That's a pretty fair assessment overall, H-D.
I still think it's way too early to make predictions, which effectively mean nothing anyway. Maybe we'll have a better idea of where we'll likely end up around January time. In the meantime, we should take each match as it comes.

Yep, agreed, Tin. We have definitely got out of jail a bit some of the last few games. But we've got the points so don't want to be too negative for a change. ?

There's nothing wrong with being realistic. We have problems with our wingbacks and the height of our goalie. Kilman is also a problem. I think Mavro will settle again and improve. ??
Pablo is useless.
Apart from that, we've the makings of a decent side. Fact. Might as well admit the obvious and not bury heads in sand.
