    Stuart needs to deliver a rocket, his own position is under increasing scrutiny and its about time these players were told a few home truths - and perhaps Kenny (allotment) Black could come up with something to help

    The bit he has to take accountability for is the but where the ball bounces off the bar and he should be shouting "mine" so it isn't headed and he catches it. Problem is he hopes someone else deals with it because he doesn't want to. If he wanted to he would have shouted for the ball to catch it. Like many of our players he doesn't have the desire to take ownership of a situation he just wants someone else to do it.

    He was probably 2 metres away. He should have been catching it. He can see no Bolton players in front of him so as long as he jumps in the air to catch the ball anyone who touches him will give away a foul.

    Actually @SimonW@SimonW he was one metre away and was already jumping up for the ball but jumped on the spot. He just needed to say "leave it, mine" and he would have caught it.

    Why has he seen so little game time?
    If he’s not ready for first team football - why did we sign him?
    If he’s not good enough - why did we sign and him and more concerning what is our ‘scouting’ structure?

    All this said how would any of us know answers to the above when the lads had F-ALL game time.

    If the lad Crawford was a better finisher, we’d be three or four down.

    Was the scouting team actually involved, or was it the manager and 1st team coaches who saw a quick player who scored a goal when City played Wolves u23's and made a rash decision?

    A young hungry striker on loan wasn't a bad idea but you needed a player like Hosannah where his parent club is sending him out to get minutes as they have still has some hope for him, not one where the club is just trying to do him a favour as they will be releasing him in the summer but hope he can make himself wanted

    I am so sad about all this. Stuart has to be a hero as a player, but lose again on Saturday and how long do you let this go on without making a change? I don’t really believe in changing managers regularly - look where that has got us - but this is so, so poor.

    There’s no other choice if results keep going the wrong way . We Carnt just plod along this season because it’s stuart . He’s had 3 chances! Who else would get that . He’s a poor manager . Get back to Bettys tea room stuart do abit of media work and enjoy your retirement. Don’t ruin your reputation at the club because this time people are getting seriously ballsed off . The season is over after 8 games . We’re 7 points out already . Joke of a club

    I am convinced McCall saw him score for Wolves against us, asked Watt if he was a good lad, Watt said yeah he’s ok so McCall signs him.

    Bolton were generally appalling tonight, the fact we couldn't beat a very poor side speaks volumes about where this club currently sits. A joke on and off the field.

    Two very poor teams
    The two biggest clubs in the division
    Both sides will not be anywhere near promotion contenders

    It's always a gamble with a kid coming in from U21 football.

    I agree Bolton were poor but they still should have won by more,

    They'd get hammered if they said it now, but not at the time. And I dont believe we voted against the cap.
