Pre-Season Games - Thread

The first 2 and a half minutes of that video had more passes than the last 2 and a half seasons.

Nice thing about highlights is that only accurate passes that complete make the editorial cut, but it did look better than last season. Lots of movement.

On the one hand this is the middle of the Swedish season so the Mjallby team are fully match fit and know each other's game really well - whereas that was the first match our back four have played together.   
On the other hand Mjallby are currently 14th out of 16 in the league.  

I love the way the happy clappers are trying to take positives out of losing to a part-time outfit from Sweden.

That was Dougie's first choice team folks. We are doomed.

...with about 8 subs made during the course of the game

I know you can't read much into a few minutes of highlights, but Craig Davies looked about as sharp as a wet sponge.

For whatever reason, he's got a fantastic opportunity to force his way into the team as the lone striker this season but he needs to switch on and get sharp.

Quick.....

He needs some Slim-Fast. Fast!

His personal fitness trainer is Mario Jardel.

Nothing new then.
Dougie only keeps him around because we can't find anyone better for the money as yet.

Is this game happening?

Ye it's happening, is there a stream??

Lonergan, McNaughton, Mills, Ream, Moxey, Spearing, Medo, Danns, Feeney, Hall, Beckford

Subs: Fitzsimons, Sellers, Threlkeld, Bolger, Wilkinson, C Davies, Riley, Dervite, Vela

Strong looking team on paper.

Not sure about Medo and Spearing in the same team, but I'm not criticising, let's get that established right now.

No Bogdan again, so it looks like he's definitely off.

Hall again   

All Bolton, hall came close with a curling effort

@OfficialBWFC: Unlucky from Beckford. He skips past a defender and in to the area, with his low shot then blocked by the goalkeeper. (11) 0-0 #BWFC

No Trotter, Wheater or CYL either!

Bolton winning 1-0 Neil Danns scores from distance

Bogdan is still injured

What's up with him?
