The mentality of the players is all wrong. If you expect defeat, nine times out of 10 you will be defeated.
Upon waking from his coma what were Muamba's first words? Not "did we win?", meaning the FA Cup game against Spurs, his first words were "did we lose?".
What does that say about Muamba and the rest of the Bolton team?
In 1994 I was the victim of a terrible tackle in a Lancashire Schools Girls Premier League game, the cut was so deep I was rushed to hospital. When I'd been stitched up I called the coach to enquire by what score we'd won. It's called a winning mentality.
Our mental state (and pisspoor manager and passionless players) will send us down.
