    But when Donaldson got injured we were scoring goals they were building a good partnership. I think he will start with Novak because they were together successful at Huddersfield but we will see. Incidentally I think Donaldson would have been in double figures if his season hadn’t been curtailed

    You're being a little optimistic in believing that 50 goals are required to get into the play-offs. As we know, last season was truncated and the play-off candidiates all scored more than 50 goals .. but from only 37 games. In most seasons, it's usual for play-off teams to amass around mid 60s in goals. And that makes the point you've made well even more difficult to achieve.

    Mate, if you're trying to convince us Guthrie is a poor signing you're about 8 months too late! We know that already! :laughing:

    In all fairness, I did say "even in this season that ended early" when mentioning the goal tally required to reach the play offs haha. I'm well aware that the total would usually be a fair bit higher, hence the reason i'm so concerned about where the goals are going to come from.

    Doyle has a lot to live up to after last season great record at Swindon, and as we know Bolton fans are not the most patient, a poor start they will be on his back.

    At 36 years of age you're not going to change the way you have played most of your career IMO.

    Wonder if they will steal Vaughan from under Tranmeres nose as well

    We weren't doing well in performance terms though. Watching the games live you could sense we'd ridden some luck and it didn't seem like we were capable of sustaining it.

    He changed his style of play about 4 years ago when in his early 30's. He stopped scoring goals! ;)

    The point is in the games immediately before his injury we were starting to get it together Donaldson and Vaughan were forging a partnership and Pritchard was doing pretty well out on the left wing over the four or five up to and including the game he was injured the goals were going in

    Didn’t stop him being instrumental in helping others playing in leagues lower than his previous seasons. He brings more to the team than just goals just like stead who scored 6 in 32 Donaldson scored 4 in 20

    Tbh I've long since written Gutless off ? If Vaughan does go we have two forwards Nogoalvak & Donaldontiho both havent got 15 goals between them and are just way too immobile ? Infact Immobile he was a decent Italian forward for all that !. We need to bring in a pacey striker Stuart has to see this especially if Vaughan is on his way.

    A poor signing indeed but it doesn’t stop the “give the lad a chance” brigade from coming out in their numbers!
