Popular Post Lord Snooty Posted March 12, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 12, 2019 "Awful night" "Awful day and night if you're a Bolton fan" "I meant the weather Stubbs but I take your point. A great old club like that in absolute turmoil. Players not paid. Old bill not paid. Owner trying to sell. Fans protests. Stuck at the foot end of the Championship. what has this game become. Bolton Wanderers. One of the iconic names of English football. Evocative names. Like Sheffield Wednesday. Preston North End. Tottenham Hotpsur. They conjure up images. Images sadly fading... " "Indeed Sir. There has even been some talk today that the game tomorrow might be at risk" "The only thing at risk tomorrow Stubbs is Steve Bruce's unbeaten start coming to an end." "Pardon Sir?" "Everything points to it Stubbs. Club down on it's uppers. The players are in dispute with the chairman, the fans are in dispute with the Chairman. Local MPs are calling for and investigation. They're stuck at the wrong end of the table. Bottom of the home form table. Scrabbling about in an absolute mess. Players making statements, chairman making counter statements. absolute shambles from top to bottom. Everything is in place for Wednesday to rock up there and lose". "The bookies are offering Wednesday at 1/1 Sir. they think it all stacks heavily in Wednesdays favour." "They did the other year thought didn't they Stubbs when Bolton hadn't won since the invention of the telephone but they still managed to do us. Then they lose another 8 on the spin without finding the net once until, you've guessed it, they played us again. And won again. They've become a bogey side Stubbs." "Even so.." "Never mind 'even so' I've seen it too many times. As soon as we become bang favourites for anything you can guarantee it will all go big boobies up. You want to make some money tomorrow Stubbs-bang it on the trotters" "Bit pessimistic if you don't mind me saying" "You can say what you like. Besides....Phil Parkinson" "What about him?" "You struggle to get past a Phil Parkinson team. We're too nice and he'll have them ready to make it scrap. I mean look at the man. He's got that look." "What look?" "The look of the pool team Captain from a flat-roofed boozer. The who's on the blower all during the match telling her he'll be home 'when the game is finished' and 'no he doesn't know how long it's going to take' and 'what the hell do you mean has Gina travelled with us, she's not even in the pool team' and 'no I haven't got any idea what you're raving on about woman I'm out with Kev and Nige.'." "Pardon?" "Of course Gina is there Stubbs. He's took her along. Met her on the corner near the bookies. That's what I'm saying. He's got the look of that sort." "I'm afraid I don't follow ,Sir. Who's Gina?" "She's the bit of fluff on the side in this scenario! .Some rough scrumpet. But that's not the point" "If i may be so bold Sir, 1hat is the point?" "That Parkinson has that look! The look of the bloke who sinks the black, knocks back the half bottle of Budweiser he's been drinking and smirks across the table at you. While his fancy piece sidles up and puts her arm around his waist" "Have you been on the cheese again Sir?" "You don't understand these things Stubbs. but the readers of this section will know what all too well I'm on about. Namely that we shouldn't expect anything tomorrow other than a tough game and more than likely a defeat that might seem unthinkable to the rest of the footballing World but not to us." "Well I hope everyone else is more positive than you then Sir" **** Bolton Wanderers - V - Sheffield Wednesday Bolton boss Phil Parkinson has reported no major new injury concerns following Saturday's home win against Millwall. Forward Clayton Donaldson and midfielder Luca Connell are both pushing for recalls after dropping to the bench on Saturday. Sheffield Wednesday striker Steven Fletcher is doubtful due to a foot/ankle/knee injury sustained in Saturday's draw at Derby. (Who kicked him?) Fletcher was withdrawn just before the hour mark, but boss Steve Bruce remains hopeful the Scot will prove his fitness. Fernando Forestieri missed out at the weekend due to a hamstring strain and fellow forward Gary Hooper is still out having not featured for over a year. Newcastle loanee Achraf Lazaar remains sidelined after missing the last two games due to a hamstring problem. Match Facts Bolton have only lost one of their last 11 home matches against Sheffield Wednesday in all competitions (W6 D4 L1), a 0-1 defeat in December 2012. Sheffield Wednesday haven't completed a league double over Bolton since the 1982-83 season. Bolton have not won successive home league games since New Year's Day in 2018. Sheffield Wednesday have drawn each of their last three away games in the Championship, last drawing four in a row in November 2014. Phil Parkinson has never lost at home against Sheffield Wednesday in all competitions (P7 W5 D2 L0). Steve Bruce has lost his last three away league visits to Bolton, last winning there in October 2011 with Sunderland. **** "Oh Sir.... were you aware that Liam Palmer had been called up for the Scotland Squad?" "What?" "Palmer Sir. Called up for his excellent recent form" "Really?" "Really Sir" "Then f*ck it Stubbs! Forget what I said earlier! Get some money on the Wednesday. We're going to win. 1-0 . A rejuvenated Palmer with his first goal of the season. " WELL DONE LIAM COME ON WEDNESDAY! 19 8 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trumbullowl Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Great OMDT Snoots. Bolton's ground's like a flat roofed boozer next to a supermarket. We have to make up for the disasters there last season, we just have to, and I think we will! We are the famous Wednesday, and we'll win 2-0. Aarons and Winnall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando_Trustful Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 The sort of game we like to roll over and lose with ease. I have got a feeling tonight could be different but injuries aren't helping us. 1v1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latemodelchild Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Wonderfully evocative OMDT m'lord. Nothing stirs the soul like a tale from a flat roofed boozer. I can picture Gina and our protagonist in my mind and its not a pleasant experience for the most part. I can also see tonight's match and the way it could go. All the signs point to a Bolton win. The only hope I did have was Brucey Baby but it seems he's under their spell as well. I guess we'll have to just leave it to the fickle finger of fate. Who's bad luck and typicalness will be the strongest? That's what will decide tonight's match. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 No disrespect intended, but a game we should win comfortably, Bolton are dogshit. That said we've got no fit strikers, their off field problems could galvsnise or demoralise them. A good start and early goal could see their heads drop. Torn between 0-0 and a 0-2 win, let's be positive and go for the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airborne_rat_of_s6 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Another team that on paper are turbo shuffle that we continue to struggle against. Hopefully that will change tonight. Play well and we could see more than one goal scored; woooooo! UTO’s 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howards back Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 An early goal for us tonight could be the key. So I hope brucie tells the lads to throw everything at them in the first 20 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
