Why is it a 2pm kick off?

Nothing is a 2pm kickoff

Simon's Church Must be up there with one of the slowest starting 11s we've put out in a long time


The news lads at the back don’t look too slow on what I’ve seen and Dorsett is fairly quick

But yeah the rest of the team lacks any pace at all really

I’d have rather had Kelvin for Doyle and I’d have liked that attack

But can understand why we prob need him on the bench instead

Doyle still baffles me as to what he really adds. Will need to watch him more closely I guess

3 L1 games going early now; Bolton leading 1-0 at next week’s opponent, Wimbledon, Bradford and Doncaster is goalless. About 15 mins left in those.

Your are not the only one. Doyle doesn't add much - he's tidy, safe, a bit bland (not exciting) and doesn't add/achieve much

I really want to like Paddy Lane, but he's completely non-existent.

Maybe Ploddy Lame is the new Convey. Terrible first season and he'll be brilliant in the second season.

Not as dreamy as Bobby though x.

Roberts is giving me League One Antonee Robinson vibes. The play style, look, and even #5 (Antonee's USMNT number) are the same.

Seems such a struggle to create anything really decent. Must do better in the final third.
