Bolton 4-0 Blackburn Rovers

With the lack of cover in defence now Mills has got injured I reckon he will start tomorrow, Ream back at the centre of defence with Wheats.

Been wanting to see Ream and Wheater since we got relegated, best pairing IMO. Hopefully that's what Dougies got planned but for this weekend a lot will depend on Hutton's fitness.

I actually think he will start. Even Dougie isn't stupid enough to bring back Knight.

God I hope you're right Natasha, I fear he'll go with Zat from the start though and put Hutton on the bench.  

Today's team: Bogdan, Baptiste, Knight, Wheater, Ream, Spearing, Kamara, Davies, Danns, Mason, Jutkiewicz.

Subs: Lonergan, Hutton, Hall, Eagles, CYL, Moritz, Trotter

FOUR - NIL

Didn't we do well!

God game, good game.

Unbelievable Jef, what's happened to us, we're destroying teams, I think we'll win every game until the end of the season from here on in.

Same team, same formation next week Freedman, you have left it too late though.

  

Did you go, Scotty?

Was 4-0 an accurate reflection of how we played?

I don't know if Scotty went but I did and I'd say yes it was breadman. If anything it could have been a couple more. What was especially encouraging about what I believe is the performance of the season is we never let up from the first kick to the last. I don't rate DF and think we're too reliant on loan signings as you already know but the team was set out perfectly and the tactics were spot on today. 

If an alien had just arrived on earth and hadn't seen a league table it would have thought we were the team pushing for the play offs and promotion while Blackburn were flirting with relegation. We didn't let them play, don't let anyone say they were rubbish or off the boil, we MADE them look rubbish and outplayed them all afternoon. 

Fair play to everyone on the pitch and to DF, this was a great performance all the way round.

Top performance, why aint we played like this all season, ffs even Knight played well, im not convinced Though that Freedman will find some imaginative way to fuck things up.

Cheers, Pete.

I always knew Dougie would come good.

Never doubted him for a second.......

You were almost right.   

But going up? Blackburn?   

Funniest thing I've heard since the Venky's said they were football fans.

I went and we fully deserved the 4-0 win.

Four cracking goals, thought Danns was Man of the Match.

Have you lot all just got off the same bus....?

I still don't rate him breadman. I don't like how he can't make the best out of our own players and we wind up reliant on loanees to perform because in the summer we're back to square one. Dougie is NOT the right man to take this club forward in my opinion. 

However, credit must be given where it's due and he deserves it today, he used the right formation and tactics and the players clearly understood what was expected of them as the result shows. The performance was virtually flawless and the plan was clearly to go after them from the off and KEEP going after them. It worked a treat, we looked a totally different outfit from the Millwall match and even better than we did against Watford. 

I half expected to see George Peppard sitting in the dugout with a big cigar and a grin on his face.  

'I love it when a plan comes together.'  

Excellent from 1 to 11 impossible to pick a man of the match all 11 played really well.

One off the line first half had goal written all over it, and Juke should have scored one on one with Robinson. anyone complains about this performance should be shot at dawn. 4-0 did not flatter us.

We made Rovers look really bad.

Great win,and big thanks to the guy in the WSU who handed my wallet in. Didn't leave his name.

Natasha, PLEASE do a Behind Enemy Lines for this one.   

I dunno about anyone else but I really REALLY want to see what the blue and white dingles had to say about this especially after Bolton Hater's "prediction" don't you?
