What's the point of bringing on attacking subs with two minutes to go when you're chasing the game, as Lennon did yesterday?

If you're going to change it, do it with enough time left to give it a chance to work, surely?

ie, just after they went 3-2 up.

Personally I can only base my opinion on the matches I see - home matches and away matches here and there, for the record.

In this case I don't have an opinion, because I'd want to see exactly how we were playing leading up to and after the goal. Perhaps we were already creating chances - I know Feeney had a one on one opportunity - in which case it made sense to stick with plan A rather than sacrifice something defensively and risk being out of sight ten-twenty minutes later. Perhaps we were never really in the game at all, in which case we might as well have gone for it, and Lennon acted like a clown on this occasion.

I don't know, but I can't think of many times where I felt he has completely changed the system at a thoroughly brainless point in a match.

We all know it's an act and nobody's falling for it so it's not even a good plan.

Come on.....start some threads.

Some of the get behind the team home and away, there are a large number of 'Bolton Fans' who do not turn up unless they think we will win and if their is a chance that we may not will not part with their cash, they take the view that they pay and so the team must play well and win.

To me it appears a lot of fans will only get behind the team in the good times.

but every team in the land has fans like that Fab, that's just football

The fact that most teams have fans like that does not change the fact that a sizeable majority (IMO) would likely walk away from the club if we get relegated and I get the feeling that many have already headed for the exit with 15mins still to go, so to speak.

Guess I just don't get that mentality, even stranger are the ones who say lets just get this season over and start next year in league 1.

Toughing it out sometimes brings it's rewards.

again Fab that's what happens after relegation, fans walk away, Our crowds started dropping after Big Sam left when we were still in the Premiership.

I don't seem the harm in starting to accept the (almost) inevitable and start planning for next season. Most of the present squad will need to leave thats for sure

I think you'll find I did start the thread, don't know what your point is to be honest.
