    We're on a "mission" at Fleetwood Saturday but it's one our current crop of "Ethan Hunts" are going to find darn well nigh on impossible against the anarchy unfolding on and off the pitch this week.. If they defy all common logic and actually come away with anything more than defeat it might mean there's more to this bunch of lightweights than any of us have given them credit for ?

    "I don't expect us to win but if we do, do we deserve more credit?"

    Is about what I gleaned.

    Meaning; it's a guaranteed nil points unless the players defy logic and all the negativity around them. In which case there may be more to them than we think ? ! How's that Jono ? But doubt that's going to happen once Ched gets his sights on our goal !

    If they win then it will be credit where credits due because a Barton team will be hard to beat no mistake.

    Well if our no mark manager works his magic again playing one up front, i expect another spanking and believe me it hurts me to say that about our club.

    Bolton got promoted when the players were paid late 3 out of the 10 months of the season under Parkinson, they were a complete shambles off the pitch. Blame Rahic for plenty but come Saturday 3pm if the players don't perform it's down to them and the coaching staff, no excuses for them about backroom bullsh*t. Coventry, Blackburn, Blackpool and Bolton have all been promoted in the last couple of years, 3 of them have had huge protests against the owners and all have had financial difficulties. These are supposed to be professionals, it's their job to perform when it matters not the chairmens.

    Totally agree with this comment, Collins and the players have to show that all the talk from the coach and various players that what has been on offer so far 'is just not good enough' becomes more than just words - at the very least there has to be a committed display with some signs of a shape and understanding beginning to form. On another point I am staggered after another inept display last weekend that more players have so far left the club than being added to what we have on offer but to be honest my confidence in ER and MC is becoming non existent, everything either of them says just feels me feeling more deflated - I dont want this to be the case but sadly nothing that is happening at our club is raising my hopes that a turnaround is likely. Sorry all

    Sometimes people and players come together in adversity. I have a feeling we might do alright on Saturday

    You’re a more optimistic man than me - I think we’ll get battered.

    It really doesn't matter anymore.

    A win just buys the train wreck more time.

    A loss, well, I just can't wish for a loss, even though it seems the only way to mend.

    This is worse than the John Docherty and Peter Taylor reign put together.

    Well, with Scannell ruled out with his injury, the “impossible” just got harder.

    Barton’s only had a few games. They’ll still be gelling....
