A gem from Evatt šŸ˜

Wigan & Bolton really do hate each other. Must admit even though the close proximity of the two towns I never realised the intensity of the rivalry until recently. Suppose itā€™s been building in recent times as they have played more often?

Yep, historically never played each other much and both spurred on by not having any other rivals of their own. Bolton are stuck in that Fleetwood syndrome in that everyone around them doesnā€™t really consider them a rival/have their own rival already

It's quite possible. Cost wise there is a financial chasm between League 1 and the Championship. Probably a whole lot more comfortable with a steady L1 club.
 
Bolton fan after their defeat at Wigan. Rings a bell

"...same old possession without purpose...we are in the third tier of football we are not city..in this league you don't play 5 at the back all the time 4-4-2 or 4-3-3 at this level is far more effective get the ball forward a lot quicker, play in opposition half not our own 18 yard box, and win far more second ball. Get the ball in their box by crossing it...and defenders at this level will make mistakes..we are far to predictable to play against..I'm afraid Mr Evatt you are tactically inept, and you DON'T know exactly what we need. League One next season beckons yet again at this rate ."
 
OR....is EVERY football fan expecting to walk League 1 just because (add whatever excuse you believe) and when they don't....This is what you get.
Said it before...Sunderland spent Ā£38m on players, sacked 3 managers and had a Netflix documentary...still took them 3 years to get out of L1.

It's not the money spent on players mate, it's the not having a go away from home when we've nothing to lose that pisses the fans off

Doesn't ring a bell in one sense though, we don't play possession football like they do. A few passes at the back when under no pressure then belting it long isn't possession football.
 
Evatt has had his red card overturned against Northampton. Jeez, Bolton must have some influence on the panel because that's now four red cards i think this season that have been overturned.

Gaz, if you really do believe that you should call it a day mate.

Yet we struggled to get blatantly wrong ones overturned.

For every Blunderland there's a Stevenage or Luton.
