    Match Thread Bolton Wanderers vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 10th Aug

    Yeah I'd have thought the fans would give the youngsters a lot of leeway and be supportive of them during the game. Before and after there could be protests aimed at the board/administrator/the guy who's blocked the sale etc. But I'd really be amazed if they set on the youngsters even if we were...

    I think the result is expunged and we lose the three points if they're kicked out, but don't take that as gospel.

    Match Thread Bolton Wanderers vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 10th Aug

    I've thought about this before and it can be done without salary capping. My proposal would work better with squad caps, but it's not entirely necessary. You take the fixed/guaranteed revenue from TV/sponsors etc and every member of the squad gets a 'basic wage' from the FPP percentage of that...

    Only been to Bolton once - we won 5-1 I think with Dublin and Huckerby. Really liked the design of the stadium - it was one of the first of the 'new' bowl-style stadiums built.

    Junior Brown

    He is very raw, but he hasn't come from an established academy so that's arguably to be expected. MR clearly thinks highly of him and wants him to develop, but I think he needs to time in the U23 than first team to do that. I certainly can't see the reason why he's being fast-tracked towards...

    I agree that over the course of their whole history Wolves are probably a bigger club than us. But the catchment area? We're a larger city, we're both about the same distance from Birmingham but between them they've got West Brom and Walsall. We've got Nuneaton, Bedworth and Solihull. In other...

    Bolton game looks doubtful

    Ironically wasps won't go anywhere near another nest.

    I can see the facebook/twitter lot giving him loads for it. He also doesn't seem to me to be one who'd handle the criticism well either - almost a childlike need for attention. I guess that's why he uses his middle name rather than his first name, Nunto.

    Of course it is - it's electoral fraud. I'd suggest it's bullshit because 1. you don't need to take your polling card and 2. admitting it on social media would likely end up in a prison sentence. Would be funny as fuck if he got sent down for something he didn't actually do. I've always assumed...

    But we've got a lot of new players in so how will they effectively play a system they've not been coached on what the manager expects from them? Positionally and tactically players will be expected to do different things.

    Bolton tickets

    Over £1bn spent on PL transfers this summer, god knows how many millions in wages and agents fees. One Harry Maguire would probably keep our entire league afloat for a season.

    There are no Premier League prima donnas. Premier League started in 1992, Madonna was born in 1958

    Bolton tickets

    I think Hillborough has had an effect, because with all-seater everyone must have a ticket to show where they're meant to be sitting. Before with pay on the gate you paid yer money and a chap pressed a button to let you through the turnstile. That'd mean you'd have to have a load of pre-printed...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Alexander is not eloquent. He just uses antiquated langauage to either entertain people or flummox them so they're too busy concentrating on trying to work out what on Earth he's on about rather than what he's actually saying.

    I've never heard of either Hykn or Arrae. Who do they play for?

    One too many?

    I was thinking earlier that long term this is a fight between Max and Baka to stay. As Max has a few years left on the contract but Baka only until the end of this season Max would have the earlier advantage but Baka is younger. Also might mean Max is eventually loaned out to get fit and give...

    Carabao Cup

    Not as much as Birmingham. That would be a headscratcher. Ticketing could be an interesting affair. I wonder if the clubs could/would agree to play it as Birmingham home game to make it easier all round? More likely to get a better crowd and as revenues are shared for cup games would make...

    Confirmed Ins and Outs 2019/2020 Summer

    Just done a quick average and it's 63.00 in, 62.47 out Also if you do a quick direct comparison FIFA would suggest we've made slight upgrades in most cases, especially first team wise: +2 First GK (Marosi-Burge) +1 Second GK (Wilson-O'Brien) +3 First RB (Dabo-Sterling) +3 First CB...
