Newcastle 2-0 Bolton

Resign Coyle you fool. I look forward to the positives you got from another defeat.

Coyle out!™

Sordell is cup tied i think.

can't wait for the INTERVIEW

We know exactly is going to come from Coyle in his interview.

- Take our medicine
- Take a weekend off to regroup
- Those are the margins
- I am fucking clueless

you forgot to mention the positives we can take from this game

Sorry how could I forget, oh and ''The Barclays Premier League''

Who cares about the interview? I'm more worried about 21 defeats from 31 games.

Thanks Bolton, you have made me a happy man tonight.

Also 'injuries' and 'Fabrice Muamba'.

Stop nit picking Hipster. It's not like they are the most important stats.

what does a Bolton fan get out of typing that? And no I'm not missing the point, I'm genuinely curious

Heres hoping United, Swansea and Liverpool can do us favours.

Goal difference -29

Much worse than everyone elses - could be the difference between staying up and going down.

So much for Coyle's 'attacking' football philosophy.

I've seen that first goal a few times now and now way should he be allowed to have run half the length of the field without being brought down.

Well taken goal no doubt but with defending like that our goal difference will be much worst then -29 before the end of May.

Someone should of rugby tackled him fuck it needs must.

I'm struggling to see how it is much worse than everyone else's.

Well, its worse than everyone apart from Wolves who are dead in the water anyway
Stop nit picking
It might well see us down

Well it's simple enough - if goal difference decides who stays up and who goes down - then we being currently a point in front of everybody else - will have to lose another game more - so the others can catch up and thus we will have an even worse GD than we have now.

It's unlikely that we are going to win too many more games this season and thus it is highly likely that the final standings will show us with a poorer GD than those teams on the same points as us.

With just six games to go (five if you assume we have to lose a game so the others can catch up) - then I strongly believe that if our fate is going to be determined by GD - that we will be relegated.

Newcastle were awful for an hour. They made us look decent, so Coyle owes them a big thank you, as otherwise we'd all be on here cursing him over the starting line up, which was crackers.

KDavies wasn't as bad as I thought he'd be...linked up better with the midfield than I thought he could, but offered no more with his front to goal than Ngog. He was useless against Fulham so how he became first choice striker for the afternoon, I don't know.

What is annoying is how we have to wait until we're losing to make changes, not that when we do, we do so effectively.
Each of the sacrificed players had been quiet/useless for a considerable period leading up to the first goal. But the goal had to actually happen for the manager to acknowledge this. It's like "why change a good thing?"
Good managers make preventative changes, not just corrective ones.
Speaking of which, throwing Klasnic on for the last five minutes out of desperation has proved ineffective on miles more occasions than effective, and is representative of Coyle's lack of imagination in these situations.

Sordell in!
