Matchday Thread Bolton Wanderers v PNE | 15.08.26 | KO:12:30pm | Championship

[pne1881]

Lindsay in a back four has never worked.

Lindsay anywhere on the pitch has never worked more often than not.

 

[Henrys Cat]

Bolton look a yard sharper all over. They are first to every second ball at the moment.

 

[Seamustasmania]

Oh look. We have started hoofing it already

The hoofing was in the first minute Volantin hoof down the line to no
One in particular .. and that really was an awful
Piece of goalkeeping .. plenty of time to get back in it if Heckingbottom admits his mistakes.. but that’s going to happen is it ?

 

[pneducky]

What has Hecky got against Offiah. Big Dan again. We conceded early last opening game and managed to scrap a draw. Last weeks game started the same way. Get the takeover done, Hecky needs potting quickly.

 

[diggerb]

They are

 

[oil-man]

Not pleasant watching atm.

 

[northend nevets]

Only 1 team in this game after 20 mins.

 

[john2321]

Lambs to the slaughter these fuckers.

 

[Eccywhite]

We are all over the place.

 

[paddysr]

At least it didn't last long.

It rarely does

 

[ShaunG]

What a fucking shambles. Turgid long ball shit.
Lets hope this is the LAST time we see some of these players and these non-league tactics

 

[Longshanks]

Fucks sake, we're all at sea here.

 

[26-0]

Paying the price for the negative approach again.

Back 5, 2 holding midfielders, playing on the back foot to keep it tight and time wasting.

Expect us to try and keep it to just one goal deficit and then have a go at attacking in last 15 minutes.

 

[Warton PNE]

Quite a horrible start this.

Get Leroy on as he actually has the ability to hold onto the ball and keep it unlike Thompson and McCann.

 

[wld]

‘There’s a gap if he wants to drive into it’ says the commentator.

Don’t be silly!

 

[Locke Lamora]

Entirely the keepers fault

Correct. But Lindsay was totally oblivious to the man following up.

 

[Lee Trundle]

“Jordan Storey, there’s a gap if he wants to drive into it”

Has this commentator watched a single minute of Jordan Storey’s career

 

[Wisemen say]

We are already being out played,out fought and made to look very poor defensively and in midfield,upfront we have offered nothing,how ever there is absolutely no service to our forward(s).☹️

 

[oil-man]

Frustrating as this is so winnable.

 

[HemmingsHappyClapper]

Storey and Lindsay are incapable of playing the ball in front of a man, painful watching a player constantly have to adjust from their passes
