Coming back from the match.
a few thoughts

1. That was so fucking easy :lol:
2. Nwaneri is class - the best young prospect at the club
3. I thought Nichols did pretty well too - the other youngsters a bit meh
4. The fact we didn’t sell out is embarrassing - just shows that a lot of the fan base is there for the glamour ties. pathetic
5. State of our stadium is shocking - you just have to guess your seat number and it is leaking worse than ever. Needs a massive refurbishment
6. Pie and a pint pre match deal is £9.40. Not bad :barscarf:

It didn’t even reach general sale, as far as I’m aware. I had a look the other day and it was sent to exchange after red.

It definitely went to general sale - that’s how i got a ticket.
I forgot about the ballot.

Don’t think there was more than 50,000 there tonight

Must have missed it then. I remember checking yesterday morning, on the off-chance. Either way...

What is wrong with 50,000 for Bolton at home.

It sounds like you are having a dig at fans not turning up, but by the same token it sounds like you rarely go, as in moaning about can’t find your seat (seams easy enough to me) and then moaning about price of drink and food..

Can someone please tell me how the fuck Jesus is still at the club. Should have been gone during the summer. Bolton are League 1 and poor, but he was as hopeless as usual. He huffs and puffs but his end product is atrocious.

Nothing at all wrong with 50,000 back in the day.
However these days when there is a ballot for all other matches (and much more expensive matches) I find it bizarre that the club can’t sell out for a match costing just £20.

Of course I rarely go these days - have you seen what the percentage chance of attending a match is as a red member?
You clearly don’t go at all though - - what I am saying is that the seats are now so faded that you can’t see the number on them. It’s ok for season ticket holders but ridiculous for everyone else.

He was appalling last night - a complete waste of space

Yet some on here don't hold Arteta responsible for failing to add a quality striker in the summer and to go into a new season with Havertz and Jesus as our marksmen....and I use the term loosely.

Cue someone telling me that Havertz scored the 5th goal last night, y'know a scruffy effort against a League 1 side that had given up the ghost by that time.

We need a minimum 20 league goals from a striker to compete at the top level, but I'll predict now that Havertz will get 12 at best and Jesus 6. League goals don't forget.

You wouldn't happen to live in an Imaginary Village would you? And that you used to go by another Monicker? :rubchin:
