Subs:
Coll, Pearson, Rothwell, Weir, Byrne


My Homepage for the only link I could find, veetle needed I think.
 
McCullough has been rock solid all season - he looks promising. And today we have even looked solid defensively - and without sounding too harsh on Luke Hendrie. He is not a right-back! We look far better with Love at right-back
 
Good play by Blackett, does anyone else think that he has a chance of making it in the first team, I rate him very highly.

First caught my eye last season, in the FAYC game against Liverpool (2:3) with the 4 red cards. Was quite on fire.


Oooh and Charni scores! :)

Did you see that piece of skill from him there :drool:

Talent is obvious - but to me he looks like has a lot to learn in the mental bit. He looks more or less unconcentrated at times. And is much better going forward than defending.

But he certainly has the talent to make it!

Needs to work on his passing though, gifted Bolton a chance with an absolutely shocking pass when under no pressure at all.

Wonderful hit from Charni, I had no idea he could do that.
 
Nice feet by Van Velzen there and a decent strike as well. Great challenge at the end there as well to deny Byrne. United coming out strong after the break.
 
Nice feet and strength there again by Blackett to earn a corner, he's causing them some trouble down the left.
 
It's a bit ridiculous that Barmby wasn't selected for U19 or U18's squad.
 
Right knee it seems, hopefully it's not serious as he's been one of our best players this season.
 
ROthwell could be out for a long time - tragic!

This second half is probably our best performance all season - some breathtaking football at times - and we have been solid defensively.

He didn't appear to be in excruciating pain when you saw him 2 minutes afterwards - so maybe there is hope that it isn't too serious!
 
2-1, very scrappy goal, Bolton have just over a minute of normal time and whatever is added on to equalise.
