Just 1 goal?....for us?...too much to ask?...

cashman · 29-02-2020, 16:55

0-0 away will do.

Kiwi John · 29-02-2020, 16:55

1 point better than zilch..Onya STANLEY

andyd · 29-02-2020, 16:58

Another point towards safety.

Clicker so unlucky two great efforts and equally great saves.
Much better second half and dare I suggest after Grant’s substitution.

The contrast between the static Grant with his awful first touch, and the skilful, live wire Charles was huge. We were a different team once he came on.

Clark was MOTM, Sykes excellent too....thought Sam was very poor for an hour then did well. Callum never got one cross in all match.

Some complete arses in our end today. Pleased to see them kicked out....nothing wrong with standing up providing you don’t go and plonk yourself in front of some elderly folk after kick off, stand up and then tell em to F off when they were asked to sit down. Loathesome.

Not the most exciting game, Bolton dominated first 30 minutes. Bursik made crucial saves, we grew into the game and made it a even feeling second half with the reds in this period having the best shots on goal. Sykes and Rodgers stood up well today. Maguire steady also. Second half, Clark started causing problems for the trotters. And subs Benny and Dion had a positive impact on game.
Reality check though! sat inside an impressive stadium of an ex premier League side whom we have beaten twice and drawn with this season. We have also gained another point towards safety.

Clicker best player by far today.... only emphasised that he is too good for league one!

Totally agree, Lord D with your comments re the players!

Didn’t see the incidents alluded to in third paragraph, however, I did see one young chap being escorted out at half time... only looked about 15/16.... but, looked totally “out if it”..

Please can we not ask all supporters to “self-police”, & ensure that these young idiots do not bring shame on our club? The number of stewards, at our end, seemed to almost outnumber those in the remainder of the stadium... plus, mounted police as we came out...
Hopefully, we are not gaining an undeserved reputation?

What a contrast in terms of hospitality. We roll out the red carpet to welcome their fans at our place, yet we get refused entry into two pub/restaurants before the game even though there were three “seniors” in our party. Then we were searched before entering the ground! Ah well, there’s a first time for everything!

Some fantastic saves by Bursik & superb blocks by Callum kept us in the match first half, tbo I thought we offered little up front and were lucky to came away with a point so no complaints

There's not many who welcome away fans as well as we do, for instance at Coventry last season the stewards asked my mum who is in her 80's to open her flask of coffee & they sniffed it, they also asked me to remove my woolly Stanley hat & searched it - we must've looked dodgy

From a Bolton forum : “He was quality that Jordan Clark, never heard of him but one of the best individual displays against us at Macron in this terrible league.”

think it could be a case where certain clubs who have slipped down the leagues still carry out checks on away fans like they did years before and have not changed their outlook to them. stanley at home or manchester clubs at home are different animals behaviour and in numbers wise and should not be treat the same.
