Bolton 3-2 Leyton Orient

Are the lads going to make this a hat-trick of defeats in a row or will Evatt have the lads geared up for the win?

How do you all think we will do?

Going to be a big crowd as its part timer day again and we never seem to do well when this happens.

 I can see a scruffy 2-1 win to us with their goal being scored by old boy Pratley.

Well after my pessimism last week following our capitulation to Pompey I’m filled with renewed optimism. I’m actually not overly worried about Santos missing because for whatever reason we seem to do better without him. We certainly seem to play the playing out from the back quicker when he’s not involved because for me he’s the one that slows it down with his silly standing on the ball. I also think having Sheehan back will be a big plus and it wouldn’t surprise me to see Victor return to partner Dion up top. Either way, despite Orients decent away record I think it’s back to winning ways for us so 2-0 to the Super Whites.

Just literally booked and printed off tickets for this game on Saturday.

Hopefully it will be a great game for my son and then it sways him more to Bolton than Man City (yes Norpig, I’m in the same boat)!

When we last beat Orient at home, we won by 2 goals to nil.

We then went on a 14 league unbeaten run. This was the 2020/21 season.

Then let’s hope history repeats itself Karly?

Of course 63.

We are in our 3rd year of being in League one too so let's hope it's our 3rd time lucky as well!

Radio Nuts is now live as I'm off to the Reebok today.

Enjoy everyone and Merry Christmas!

And then it all went wrong, almost!!

Second half absolute wank guys.

Had the mince pies out after ten minutes, then nearly choked on them.
How the hell did we end up hanging on for dear life?

There must be somat in the half-time steak n kidney pies........how else do you explain a dive of that magnitude.
After 15 minutes I thought a 6-0 was on with aplomb - next thing you know we are hanging on for grim death. 
One thing I noticed was their winger ran us all day long.
Note to Ian: get us a winger who runs directly into the box causing havoc. Thanks in advance.

Captain Darren Pratley. Came on at half time, bossed the midfield, kept it simple, freed up ther wingers and was close to scoring the equaliser himself. Not bad for a 38 year old Bolton reject.
