@TakingItToal It was a pen, however it was a double touch and we should have one later on with Kenny. You can't give this one and not give that on Kenny

Never a pen #bwfc

@bwfc_leon09 @jordi_ot I think at times we don't think the players will see what we write but they do. I think they expect criticism with being in the public eye but I think the players will be their biggest critics anyways. Absolutely disgusting comments towards him after the game

@CPWanderer @jordi_ot same, every time we go forward I think we might score, every time a team attacks us i’m shit scared. at least osei tutu has seen my apology anyway, reminded me I need to be constructive with my words 😂 hopefully he comes back and gets us over the line

@bwfc_leon09 @jordi_ot 100% agree. I mean look at the 3rd goal we conceded, Toal loses it and Johnston kicks air. I think we've looked shaky at the back all season. I know we've only conceded 48 but I've been uneasy all season when teams attack us

@CPWanderer @jordi_ot yeah the more I look at it I think it’s definitely a red and a penalty, but ultimately the lack of defensive structure is what forced him into doing it, he shouldn’t have to take one for the team we should’ve dealt with the free kick first time

@bwfc_leon09 @jordi_ot He's held his hands up and apologised. Can't ask for more than that. I would've done the same, I think anyone who plays football would've done the same. Shame he's missing for Bradford but hopefully we can get a result

@CPWanderer @jordi_ot agreed thought he was really good second half against plymouth aswell, I just said smt without thinking, then I remembered how much I actually like his character and the fact he posts even after a disappointing result

@BwfcGoals We'll calm them down on the 2nd pal, don't worry

Luton are a problem and a big worry going into the play offs #bwfc

Still buzzing with that result last night. The main difference for me was that some players drove forward with the ball, penetrating space instead of looking for the safe option. More of last night Sat please #bwfc

That's more like it. Fantastic!! Tutu, Sheehan looked like 2 different players from Sat. Got the ball and went forward. Love it. Bit of ACD magic too #bwfc

@gemchris1977 @MarcIles Playoffs are at risk, we've got 4 difficult games coming up, lose all of them and the others win, we could possibly find ourselves in 9th or 10th. A win Tuesday will settle the nerves however but Luton can still catch us

@MarcIles Playoffs are not at risk we will be ok I think just win one more game and we will be fine

The Big Match Verdict: If Wanderers are to fail in their efforts to escape League One, at least let them go down fighting. Not like this... theboltonnews.co.uk/sport/26014275… #bwfc (£)

@Aidan_Golf Just to clarify, I do like Tutu, I think he's a good player, I think he's better at wing back with a back 3 behind him and I agree that he's probably one of a few that could do it in the championship if we ever get there

@CPWanderer Agree with some, think Tutu is under appreciated. He’d be the one I’d be most confident making the step up. I think had he played at Rb today, Willock would have had a tougher day.

For me, Forino has been our best CB this year, Johnstons decision making is terrible, love to know how many times he passed to Bonham today, Toal has been off it for a while, Tutu isn't a defender. Got to play Forino #bwfc

@Aidan_Golf Possibly, I think Tutu loses the ball too much, tries to be clever sometimes too which really annoys me, like today, when he tries to nutmeg the Cardiff left winger in our box, you don't do that! Luckily it was flagged for offside and his touch was like he was wearing 50p shoes

@timeywimey5tuff I don't think we can blame Conway for the 2nd goal, he lost the ball in the opp box, the player then ran a good 50/60 yards, Dempsey missed his tackle and Christie got wrong footed. Toal also stood off the ball carrier allowing him to make the pass to the eventual scorer

@CPWanderer I think it's difficult for any defender playing the same side as Conway. He frequently goes forward leaving gaps behind ,loses the ball (2nd goal today)& leaves the defender on that side marking 2.

@Deano5_1976 @PhilipJBerry We're on 70 pts, so if Reading win all their games and we get nowt from ours then they'll be 1 pt above us. Completely forgot about Luton and Huddersfield tbf

@CPWanderer @PhilipJBerry Reading? They can only make 71pts! Luton possibly the ones to watch- games in hand, favourable run in, in good form and play us last game. If Plymouth win all 4, we need 5 pts from our last 4- a tough ask I'd say. Need to get it done over the next 2, though very short in cen mid

We lost against Cardiff away from home. Fair play to them, a better side than us. But please find some perspective. We don’t have to beat Cardiff for promotion. If I’m honest, it looked like we were protecting some players ahead of the play offs. Erhahon/Kenny improves us #bwfc

@Boltonsdrummer We've turned them 18 defeats last season into draws, statically our attacking output other than our goals are very good, I think we're -14 against our XG. There is definitely improvement there, I just want to see some fight in the players

@CPWanderer True, but there will always be moments across a season like that for every team. Taking it as a whole, we have made progress this year. Like it or not, we have a play-off sized budget with auto aspirations. Cardiff, Luton, Argyle and Huddersfield all have bigger budgets.

@Boltonsdrummer I think he is too similar to IE, it's all about ball retention imo, 3 wins out of 11 isn't good enough for a team that was chasing auto. I like SS, I do, but if we don't get playoffs then I think questions have to be asked, shouldn't be losing to PV who I think hadn't won in 14

@CPWanderer I think SS needs at least another season, definitely another summer without fans calling for his head. Fans forget how deep Evatts influence reached prior to leaving last year and the work needed to switch things up. He is a top, top manager at this level and we won’t get better

@Boltonsdrummer I agree with that, we've dropped 26 pts to teams that at the start of play were in the bottom 8. We have a fantastic squad imo and I honestly thought autos were on but the more I watch this team, I feel like the players aren't up for it. All SS should have to do is pick the team

@CPWanderer I feel like under Evatt, we looked great against the bottom half and poor against the top half. Under SS we look slightly above average (6-7/10) against most teams 4th-24th but not brilliant against anyone, but neither do most other teams look brilliant against us.

@PhilipJBerry So why not change it at half time or when Bonham went down with his "injury" in the first half. Could've changed to a back 5, he had the players on the pitch already to do it. Players in this position shouldn't need motivating, they should've been up for it

@CPWanderer We were atrocious today but I also thought Cardiff were good. Like Schuey said, for some reason confidence was really low. So no, we don’t get 3 points if we play like that, but I don’t think we’ll play like that every game. I thought we set up wrong tbh, I’d have gone for back 5

@Boltonsdrummer That's a matter of opinion in regards to different brands of football, I'd much rather be in Lincoln's position than ours. Goals win games, not possession. I couldn't even tell you what our strengths are to be fair, have we got any?

@CPWanderer Lincoln have been brilliant, but underestimated. Their fans know the score, and play direct football which will get you promotion 1 in 10 seasons, and this is their year. Our strengths are playing a better brand of football, which Forino is just not suited to.

@PhilipJBerry Ok, fair point, but going off what you said about performances, do you think if we perform the way we did today in the next 4 games that we will get 3 points?

@CPWanderer I think we need 3 points to get playoffs. I think we need to find some form to give us momentum in the play offs. However, I will die on this hill in saying that today wasn’t a must win in the terms of getting in the playoffs.

@Boltonsdrummer Fans want to see passion, energy, chasing loss causes etc.I get your point about the tactical changes but we've got a squad now where we shouldn't be worried about the opposition, we should play to our strengths and not set up tactically for them, I mean, look at Lincoln

@CPWanderer Yes that’s exactly it. I get it and understand, but it clouds fan decision - its subjective and removes objectivity. Forino is excellent against big forwards but struggled historically in this kind of game. Plus he has to be careful with his body as he is injury prone.
