    Yup- i’ll say it again- the playees are programmed by the gaffer and his team in tactics, fitness and spirit- if one or more of those programs fail the players fail- so you need a new programmer- parky is a better programmer than you think- all based on looking at his career, other fan feedback and analysing youtube interviews

    Just watched all of Parkinson's Bolton's 17/18 goals and thought I'd do a tally of the style (can't see all of build up mind). Mostly crosses or good football:
    high cross/corner ///////////////
    hoof it/direct /////
    pen /////
    free kick/long range //
    good footy ///////////
    scrappy/error //////

    McGeady holds onto it too long, he always seems to feel the need to take on the defender two or three times. He's comfortably our best player but also frustrating as hell at times. If he just got the ball, got to the byline and crossed the ball as quick as he could he'd be more dangerous than he already is

    Why has there been so much trouble over this on the two forums? I don’t get it.

    Because no one believes billionaires would touch this basket case of a club with a barge pole

    Although Donald has spoken about it openly and we know that the interested parties have registered an interest at companies house? Something has clearly been going on.

    I've always thought that too, dunno if it's a case of can't teach an old dog new tricks but if I was his manager I'd tell him to put it straight in and I'd tell Wyke to expect it coming straight in. Might help him get on the end of a few if he knows what to expect because he's too slow to read the game.

    Because, quite simply, the potential is so ridiculous that if it comes off, we're on our way to Wolves-esque status. If it doesn't, we're stuck with Del Boy and Rodders.

    FFS, the joke that closed down RTG <laugh>

    Seriously mate, if the Americans are shown to be still incolved I may have a little chuckle.

    I'm sure everyone would be pleased wouldn't they.

    Don't get me wrong, I think Wyke is ****e and one of the very worst regular playing strikers we've ever had, so finding him with decent balls will be hard. That being said, he does make runs but he makes them, stands still for a few seconds and then a cross comes in when the defence is all back, in place and organised. We always seem to give teams to long to get back and organised, I wouldnt say McGeady is the only one to look at for this happening either.

    Well he's either on a massive wind up or he's suggesting something is happening about the takeover tomorrow. Nowhere else suggesting anything though so I'm taking it with a pinch of salt!

    I am of the same ilk, I really don’t believe a word he says. If he proves us wrong I’ll gladly eat humble pie.

    He might be just over the moon with the manager .
