    Due to play Bolton away on Tuesday 3rd September at 7.00 p.m.!

    A very good chance it will be cancelled.

    Maybe it is an early kick off as so the kids can play before school

    Two points,

    If Bolton are unable to play, will we get a technical win?

    When will we know, deadlines etc.? There must be a duty to fans rather than dodgy rescue companies.

    Side issue - has anyone (fans) checked the accounts of the proposed takeover of the other club, mentioning no names.

    Announced in last hour the takeover is done. I suspect a host of new signings by Tuesday from those who have been training there. Billy Clarke first in.

    Kevin Nolan as manager would make sense.

    Don't know but I think they need a young manager that the fans love.

    My guess is GB will make 11 changes so he has a ready made excuse to losing to the worst team in the EFL, hope I'm wrong obviously.

    What a frightening thought Billy Clarke leading the line for Bolton.

    Not sure the rules allow, even though they have been amended.

    You can get away with making 11 changes due to the number of options, only 4 of the outfield players have to match at least 1 of these criteria:
    • Started the match before
    • Started the next match
    • In the top 10 starting appearances during the season
    • On loan from any premier league or category 1 club
    • Made 40 or more starting appearances in a first team
    with that the only players who don't match the criteria are French, Patrick, Gibson and Devine that i can tell and that assumes none of them start the Crewe or Northampton match and any of the U18s who i haven't included.

    I really am hoping Bowyer starts our strongest team tomorrow, in a 442 formation. If we lose then who cares, its a pointless competition anyway and the league should be priority, and Bowyer can carry on tinkering for the foreseeable future...

    ...but win and we stick to the same formation and personnel for future games, utilising our players to the best of their ability

    Fans are quickly getting restless with GB and his stubbornness to do what seems the obvious, and rightly so
