Who is already dreading what Rowland is gonna dream up for this latest gamè Away in the Prem against a team so poor they make us look like Barcelona but no doubt Mr Negative will spin out his usual crap in how Bolton are a truly great side with great history and how Nat Lofthouse inspires them to concede at least 3 goals per home game!!!
Tonys team-
Begovic
Wilko Woodgate Upson Huth
Whitehead Diao Delap Ethers
Walters Crouch
No creation no idea which means another sorry pitiful display in a brave 3-1 defeat but at least the lads had a 'real go' eh Tony because that's what he will say after!

If I was TP ( cue the obvious ) I'd be thinking "Robinson is the worst left back in all 4 divisions, and probably the slowest" and play Jerome from the start
He didn't feature against Liverpool or Newcastle, and can't against Tel Aviv, so he should at least be "fresh"
But, Diao has more chance of starting than CJ

Garanteed!
I have just got today's sentinel and the excuses are already coming out about the fixture list but Pulis has only himself to blame for not buying a left-back and not even one option as cover on the wings?!! He also says that Demba Ba's penalty is there only shot on target 2nd half!!! Is he fuckin dumb and blind because we had one shot Ethers first half and a pen to show for a lack of invention and we are at home!!! Unbeliveable bull-shit from him in a great game only he sees!!!

Jerome won't get a look in because he loves jones crouch Walters and hates changing the flick on game but jeromes pace is exactly what we need!

I know that it is generally thought that managers always talk up their opposition, but I listened to Pardew's pre-match interview last night and he didn't talk us up at all. All he said was that we have the smallest pitch and a long throw, but he mostly talked about how good his team were, how good they were doing and how he thought a draw would be good but they had come for all 3 points.

Given Bolton's appalling home form, I fully expect them to win.

Boltons home record:
W 0 D 0 L 5 F 4 A 17
I bet Jim'll bloody fix it, made sure Stoke City rolled into town after that run of results.

The team will be whoever is left standing me thinks.
I'm hoping that after Israel the following are available, fit and raring to go.
Bego
Wilko Upson Woodgate (Huth is a complete liability with his lack of discipline) Higgy
Pennant Whelan Palacios Etherington
Crouch Jerome
Having played a team in Tel Aviv of
Sorro
Shotton Upson Huth Higgy
Delap Whitehead Palacios Diao Walters
Jones
If Jerome wasn't suspended then him to start vs Tel Aviv and Walters at Bolton.

i dont care if its bolton or real madrid the fact that they have lost 5 on the bounce leaves me for dread. i am keping my fingers crossed but i shant be investing any cash on a win.
p.s.tp is right to have a moan about being forced to play on a monday night. when was the last time you saw chelsea,man utd,liverpool etc play monday-thursday-sunday??? its not right and its not fair. and its exaggerated by the fact that we have to fly 5,000 miles!!

Nothing and i mean NOTHING short of a win at Bolton would be acceptable,how many more times are we going to hear Pulis say we gave away poor goals,Woodgate should be nowhere near our first eleven,in fact he should be in the championship.Trouble with Pulis he goes on reputations when he signs players not on how they are playingat this present time in their career.Pericard was on Barcelona's books don't you know........i don't hear Pulis saying that Huth should be considered for the German side anymore.......what a moron.....on behalf of Huth thanks Tony after last season....we are already missing his goals as he is the only player who attacks the ball from set peices.....

We are dreadful to watch

We all said that Newcastle, Bolton, QPR and Blackburn were a run of games that we should take advantage of, and so far it hasn't gone to plan. As far as I'm concerned, if we're aiming for top 10, then we should be winning the next 3 games.
After our recent poor displays, I'd like to think that Pulis knows that we need something to lift us, so will we be more positive away at Bolton? Anything less a D,W,W sequence from our next 3 games, in my opinion, would be a massive disappointment.

On the rollercoaster ride that is currently Stoke City then any result is feasible. However, our charity and generosity knows no bounds.
If you're in trouble and you need help.
If you can find them then call the
We've only got a plan A team.
I love it when the only plan we've got comes together !!

The only manager I've ever seen defend a 0-0 scoreline right from kick off.
Total defeatest, the message it must send to our players is beyond belief.
Oh er lads I dont think we can compete against Bolton so we'd better start by defending.
But boss we have 3 England internationals and we've beaten or drawn with some great teams .
Nah I think your'e all shit Defend.

I'd take a draw.
Listening to a TP interview earlier this week, I think a top 10 finish isn't the be all and end all - as long as we avoid being dragged into the relegation scrap.
This season is unique, we are in the Europa League, chances are that we won't often qualify for this. It seems to me as though we are taking the EL very seriously and are prepared to sacrifice 'pushing on' in the Prem - in order to give it a proper go. Consolidation in the Prem coupled with a decent go at Europe will be a good season.
However, in Jan/Feb if our Prem status looks in doubt then the EL and the FA Cup will become unimportant.
Next season however, that is when we really should be pushing for a top 8-10 finish.

Sadly a lot of prem managers will be fancying playing us at the moment, and Im sure a few will have seen how easily we can be nullified. Fuck me the woman in my local supermarket has worked us out so Im pretty sure Owen Coyle will.
