    If they have not scored all season and are losing on average five nil, I would keep it tight for 88 minutes and go all out for the last two mins and hope lots of injury time remains........:);) Keep it tight Gazza keep it tight :p

    Got the feel of a pre-season friendly tonight. Bolton kids v yet another experimental side and formation from us, no doubt.

    Whilst not in the slightest bit interested in this competion, I do think we need to put out a strong side, and hopefully a confidence boosting victory, to take into the coming weeks league games

    Hope we go a 4-3-3 type tonight. Use that tactic at home with our quality out wide and going forward.

    Devitt could play left of front 3 for some more fitness. Ismail the other side?

    Get the ball out wide quickly and get at these.

    Sorry Bantamlad, I'm old!! Just do what I do, Google Bolton News, then click on Wanderers and I think the bit I mentioned is in the article on their signings.

    The problem with is that he has to drop one of Donalsdon or Vaughan. Cant imagine either being best pleased about that. Especially at home.

    Not sure where you’ve read that, this is taken from Bolton news

    “It is expected several spots will be filled today to enable the players to face Bradford City in the Leasing.Com Trophy tomorrow night.”

    Taken from this article;

    Kieth Hill has signed some really good players for this division and his attacking style using wide men will test a lot of sides, Not sure how many will play tonight but to bring in 9 quality players in one day shows what can be done

    There'll be no meltdown from me, cannot stand this competition. The only glimmer of positivity I can muster is that it will give some much needed minutes to those returning from injury etc

    Trying to put a bet on and the bookies don’t seem to offer odds on this game! Feared match had been called off for a moment

    Will be up later once teams are made public, no one has an idea what bolton are doing team wise..they have been above 10/1 for games this year, send them off that price tonight and it turns out the new signings play then someone will know and make a killing. Similarly taken into account they might play and price them around evens then bradford would be far too big a price against a bunch of kids if they werent to play the new signings

    Would love two see two wingers as part of the front three. Proper 4-3-3.

    Probably something like;

    Hornby

    Mellor POC French Longridge

    Devine Cooke

    Ismail McCartan Pritchard

    Patrick

    Which you would hope is enough to get past Bolton's kids but we'll most likely be their first win of the season.
