Car broke down in the car park outside main reception. Luckily only had to wait an hour for the RAC.

Would’ve been a joke if they got something from the game. Maxwell had one save to make all night, and their goal made it 2 shots in 90 minutes. Bolton were shite.

First half was great. Neat passing, looked confident on the ball, great strike from Ronan & should’ve had 2 nailed on penalties. We only get shit refs. 2nd half we dropped too deep and invited them on to us but they didn’t really hurt us...bar the goal. Credit to the lads for scoring straight from kick off. Lovely shutting that lot up.

My only worry is our best three players tonight won’t be there next season: my man of the match was Taylor Moore, Ronan and Dewsbury-Hall also excellent. Our foundations are being built on sand
 
We were absolutely shocking in the second half getting massively overun in midfield. Compare it to the first half where we should have been 3 up and you must start to think that there's something not right about the mindset of the squad. Grayson's done a proper number on them.
 
Story of the season go one up and don't get the second after dominating.
We were terrible the second half and should have made changes earlier then I looked at the bench 3 defenders 1 defensive mid leaving Nuttall and Grant as only attacking players what was that all about?

Have we got any other attacking players to put on the bench though. I am struggling to think of anyone unless Hardie is recalled?

I presume your right with Gnado,Kaikai and Scannel out injured but what an unbalanced squad we have with so many defenders and not enough forwards who you can bring on to change games.

We have not been able to play a full ninety minutes all season.
 
I'm not sure we were as bad as some say in the second half. Madine really should have scored instead of sitting on the ball, while Ronan missed a great opportunity when well placed. There were other opportunities as well.

Because we didn't take one of those chances we got edgy and sat deeper inviting them on. You'd think we'd learn that we can't do that.

The positive was that we didn't feel sorry for ourselves having conceded but pushed on, won a corner and scored another.
 
Agree, we were poor 2nd half and they deserved their equaliser.
Scoring the winner in the 90th minute helps to forgive and forget the previous 45 mins.😃

I disagree they deserved an equaliser. Over the 90 minutes we had far better chances and with a competent official would have had 3 penalties in the first half

I would take the positive that clearly our scouting this season is a lot better than last season when we had Anthony Evans, Elias Sorensen and Paudie O'Connor 🙄
