Bolton match thread

[Chuck T Masala]

What is tomorrows forecast between here and Bolton?

Well there's a huge cloud over Nottingham at the moment and Derby are sitting in a severe depression. However, the sun is starting to shine in Leicesetr.

clouds always over Derby and Nottingham......

As long as the weather is good for the trip up north this afternoon at 3pm I will be happy.
Coming back I am not bothered, I will have my survival kit all ready.

[cooperLCFCanstey]

Still not sure whether or not to go to this one, it seems we'll have a decent crowd and damn right too - our first premiership test of the season and the chance to come at least 8th in the Carling cup. Sod it, I'll go, train or car, not sure yet, hmmmm, car I think.

About hour and half under normal circumstances, add an hour for peak hour or bad weather.

2 and a half then, I'll set off at 5.30, traffic'll be a sod wont it.

Could well be, its only about 50 miles, but I have done it just over an hour and in just under 4, it really does depend on the traffic, I think most of the snow and ice has eased, now looks very wet?

 

[Joe_Fox]

Do you reckon I'll get there in time for Kick Off?

Have a look at the road situation on the web, I think RAC/AA do something and the local BBC sites usually do road status.

I suspect lots of others are travelling similar distances tonight. Didnt mean to make it sound like mission impossible, its just a very busy bit of motorway. Good luck.

Yeh you should be fine (barring no unforseen circumstances), I'm setting off at around 5:20. Remember it's an 8pm kick off.

we have 6 pages of this thread and the team hasn't even been announced yet!!!

 

[Joe_Fox]

it's amazing really.

If I go I'll be in a big black coat, with a scarf and the hood is all furry - I hate it but it's warm. Come and say hi if you see me.

Levein saying he feels the team needs a lot of energy tonight and players who can pass the ball. Hammond is injured, so he's said De Vries is really the only striker and if we need another striker someone will have to play out of position. Toyed with the idea of playing Sheehan apparently.

Team is:

Douglas
Stearman, Dublin, Johansson, Maybury
Hammill, Williams, Joey, Hughes, Tiatto
De Vries

Subs (courtesy of Bolton OS): McCarthy, Sylla, Sheehan, Kisnorbo, Gerrbrand.

Christ, we really have no strikers! Hope De Vries doesn't get injured...

Suprised no reserves/academy strikers aren't in there, but then again aren't Chambers, Graham and Dodds all injured? Not exactly many options on the bench though. If De Vries and Dublin gets injured we'll be going 5-5-0 or 4-6-0! No keeper on the bench either! Ouch.

 

[Hazzman]

They have a number of their top players out tonight including Okocha and Nakata.

 

[joe501]

I really dont like the idea of right footed maybury at left back and left footed hammill at right mid:icon_roll

 

[lcfcrules]

is it definitely 4-5-1? or could it be
Douglas
Maybury Stearman Nissa Tiatto
Hughes Joey Williams Hamill
MDV Dublin?

but then again, CL doesnt rate Stearman as a center back.. so he will probably play him at LB instead...

it could be Hamill LM, Hughes RM, Tiatto, Joey, Williams in the middle too
wotever we put out, no doubt all the players will rotate roles throughout the game anyway, so this post is all irrelevent really
