    So we just forget about this season and the brilliant run we're on?

    Your default setting is we should stop going backwards on everything but funnily you always revert back to Rhodes and McCall to justify some of your comments you need to be more forward thinking it will help you in the long run a:thumbup:

    They bent the spirit of rules at the start of the season and got lucky that it's now gone. The money they are paying some of their players could end up in disaster for them again.

    Good team, but they got very lucky goal and had it stayed at nil nil we would have been well worthy of the point, but some think taking the lead means you deserve to win. It doesn't and we stuck at it and got exactly what our effort (effort not quality) deserved in a point.

    I'm disappointed we didnt make more of the game, but you can see that Bolton have spent way above L2 level in the window, and possibly at championship level. That's a gamble that could well backfire.

    My money is on Bolton to finish top three now and us to finish top five, avoiding them in the playoffs. We've just completed our hardest game of the season, against the best organised team we've played and have nothing to fear in the final 15 matches. Bring on whoever now.

    I don't think we are ready to go up.

    As I said before I would take.

    Also in truth I don't think we will finish in a top 7 spot anyway. We are not good enough.

    Worse than that, we would have conceded again.

    Yes. Give your head a SHAKE as our OFF THE FIELD set up is not good enough for @Fordy117@Fordy117 so, until it is, we just cannot consider promotion. Ryan is doing OK but needs to DO BETTER. Rhodes was shocking as was McCall.

    The simple execution of striking a football, but boy does Rowe do it well.

    Nobody is ever “ready”

    We’ve had the best upturn we will probably ever see at City, we have won our previous 5 on the bounce and drawn against a team bang in form and showed it at VP.

    There is nothing doom and gloom about this.

    Mark my words we are going up.

    His shot accuracy is the second highest in the division.

    It's good to have a goalscorer in the squad. We need to work out how to get him on the pitch more.

    Lets have a £20 bet on that shall we? I bet you £20 we WILL finish in the top 7. If we do YOU will pay £20 to the Burns Unit. Are we on?

    That video clip is a great angle for his goal, no thought of a touch he knows where he wants to put it and does, some talk about him being an impact player but I really cant see how we can leave him on the bench for the Newport game, over to you T&S.

    We've done this before. He never pays up.
