This is a 'see how far we really are behind' type of game.
Right at the end of the transfer window too.
Load of nonsense. We've looked good so far, generally matched them. We've not figured out the final pass yet today and Bolton are very good in transition which could hurt us as we keep searching for an equaliser. They've had one very good chance which they missed, we've now had two. They're in front because of a world class free kick off a foul that shouldn't have been given for a blatant dive. We're pressing them well and forcing mistakes at the back
Good work from JRS to retain possession under pressure, ball is sent over the other side to CBT and his shot rebounds off a defender so Bolton can clear.

Nice tracking back by CBT there, we end up sending the ball crossfield to Clare, who gets jumped into by a Bolton player and we have a free kick just behind the halfway line.
For all we're pressing high and making Bolton's life hard on the ball we look very suspect defensively. Both centre backs aren't enjoying the attackers driving between them and their full backs and the wingers aren't offering a lot of tracking cover. We have to be very careful they don't hit us too much on the counter. Need to score before they do to reset a little
Can see why Leaburn was rested... Santos has always been a beast to play against whenever I've seen him - He'll probably get back to Bolton before noticing that Miles was still in his pocket.

Such a shame about the free kick that never was
Bolton havent scored as many as us, but their defensive record is one of the best in the League - Funny, as thought scoring more goals won more games.
Having said that, we used to get a shower of shite in the higher divisions too.
