MATCHWATCH : Bolton Wanderers (h)

[Snowflake Royal]

Is Ballard perm or loan?

[WestYorksRoyal]

Mola is getting absolutely destroyed.

Well that seems to be a signing worth making.

Guess if the owner leaves you scrambling around for free transfers to make a squad, it won't come off in every position.

[Bristol Paul]

that was pretty terrible. So disappointed with Savage especially,. has looked average at best in every game. Mola looks useless, Yiadom is way past his best, Azeez has zero end produce. Be a miracle to stay up if we play like this for the rest of the season. Just woeful.

[Snowflake Royal]

Been a horror show from Abbey, Binden and Mola. The latter two more than the former, but still all of them.

Savage and Hutchinson don't have enough about them to control a game and Savage isn’t a set piece taker. Azeez still needs to improve his decision making. Button kept us in it but is kicking 10 yards too long constantly.

Knibbs needs to be involved a bit more. Ballard and Ehibhatiomhan look the bollox. Yiadom has done ok.

We're a bit of luck and getting a break to take a lead away from giving someone a spanking.

There'll be a LOT of first goal wins this season.

Carson should be eased in over a season... not ready to do it every week. NGW is much better than Mola in the interim.

Pointless signing.

Is Ballard perm or loan?

Southampton loan

[Mid Sussex Royal]

Is Ballard perm or loan?

Loan and only to Jan I think.

As is Pereira it seems, and when the manager says the club is now at the limit of what it can do in terms of free agents you have to wonder just why these late signings were made at all.

PS - hope the FL don't take more action against Reading for the protest.

Carson is not ready as you say. After Port Vale, fans were screaming that NGW was a liability. Going into deadline day, everyone agreed LB was a priority.

From what we've seen Mola is not inspiring confidence, but it was slim pickings in a position we needed more. It's ultimately Dai's fault that we couldn't compete in the transfer market as we wanted; it means LB is a weakness whoever we pick.

Damn.

Pereira is only cheap backup. You need 3 keepers in case you get an injury or suspension. He's just there to be cover.

[Snowflake Royal]

I think I'd bring on at least one of McIntyre and Mbengue for at least one of Binden and Mola.

And Elliott for Savage would be on my mind for about 60 minutes.

Ballard has been frustrating. Keeps trying to make some sort of worldy defence splitting pass that isn't coming off when he has space to drive on. Been making a nuisance of himself though. I like that.

I like that ambition.

[Snowflake Royal]

That was Savage's man free at the back there.

[Snowflake Royal]

Makairu for Ballard
Elliott for Knibbs

Azeez now upfront by the looks.

[Snowflake Royal]

Ref is dreadful

[Sutekh]

NGW for Azeez worth a try generally?

[Loafer]

selles has to go surely now?

[Snowflake Royal]

NGW for Azeez worth a try generally?

And leave Mola @ LB?

Why would you play NGW right wing?
