I thought Sibley was great today, dangerous in attack, provided a real outlet when we needed it and but for a limp right foot he could have scored to ice his performance cake. 

He was great last week too. 

Haven’t we broken the record for away wins in a season. If so. Incredible. 

As others have said everyone had a decent game. Wing backs were great, midfield solid and I have to say I thoughts Collins was brilliant. It’s great to have him back. 

We got two more goals and one more point than I thought we would so well done fellas.

I’ve read a few times that Washington looked lively.

 I thought he looked lazy. He and NML regularly failed to close down defenders and created very little. Even when Wash got the dream chance, he fluffed it.

 I thought he was our weakest player.

Everyone else deserved 7 or higher except perhaps NML who still looks like he’s struggling for fitness.

I wouldn’t say he looked lazy. More like someone coming back from injury.

Excellent 3 points considering how many players we are missing 

Wildsmith made some excellent saves whilst Nelson Forsyth and Cashin were very decent which highlights what we lacked up front 

Real shame about Gayle injury 

Can we please find someone to take free kicks and stop Our goalkeeper from being half a pitch away from his net with every other player on the pitch only 30 yards away from him because it’s far too risky and unnecessary 

Nice corner from Elder as well and Bolton will be disappointed that a tiny player gets a winning header but I wasn’t but we were poor overall and a touch fortunate to get 3 vital points 

Have you stood next to Wilson. He isn’t tiny. But he is one of favourite people atm

Really enjoyed that. It’s not just a game of silky skills. Tackling and defending are just as important. Real character on display today. COYR

Gayle’s header was brilliant.

South stand we're incredible. Really inspiring support instead of waiting for something to happen.

I thought the whole of the crowd were. Proper support. And it felt like the player’s responded and we got our reward. 

I was more annoyed by the fact that we were rubbish most of the game

Fantastic signing. Proper defender. 
 

loyalty beyond measure. What great bloke

At this level, he's ok but no more than that. Obviously he's scored a few of late and to be fair, is doing a decent job but let's not get over-excited - he misses plenty and can't win headers for toffee due to awful positioning and anticipation.

He prob will get 20 this season but he's playing plenty of games in a team challenging for the title (albeit with room for improvement) - I think I'd get 10 in this side with the chances we're creating.

I'm not slating the lad - just being realistic. He's a bog standard forward who misses quite a few and only gets the odd unexpected goal (e.g. the finish about is excellent). 

He had one chance on Saturday. And buried it. 

Class act isn’t he. 

He was superb. Him and micklewhite and the tin man were superb wingers. If Black Taylor and Mendez lang perform as well as them we will all be happy. 

I really enjoyed it. Great to win a game late on. I think we are going to have accept that it might be a bit of a roller coaster.  
 

We were the better team and won. Just a shame it wasn’t by two goals. 

Sorry not watched the video yet but who were/are the “doubters”?

I think it’s backfired us not playing some more youngsters now in this competition. We’ve learnt nowt from playing our first team players and now don’t have a final to fall back on. This was an ideal time to sound out the Weston’s, Robinsons, Browns and Fapetu. 
The league was always the priority, but a final would’ve been nice. This was an ideal opportunity wasted to give some U18s/23s a go. 

I think we learnt quite a bit tonight. And some large part of it gives grounds for concern.

i agree that we should probably have played some of the youngsters. 

I know some Bolton fans who had a right laugh last year. Let’s go and win it and have a  laugh. Feels like we are due some fun. 

If he can stay fit he would be a cracking signing.  Skill level definitely way beyond L1.

Exactly.  What a shame Washington and Waghorn weren't on six month loan spells. Will either of them get back to full fitness this season?

Waggy has at least given us some goals early doors, and he's a good option off the bench when we need to hold the ball up, but Washington hasn't really offered us anything this season.

I thought Washington was starting to look quite useful with a couple of goals in the home games against Exeter and Northampton. 

Then he got injured.

It's hard to dominate in a 2 with hourihane against 3 athletic CMs.

But not every team sets up like that.  He’s been ok this season. But he’s been no better than that. 
 

He’s a good bloke but I had hoped he was going to be better this season. If he stays I hope he does come good. 

I’d sell him. Didn’t think he was that great in the last home game either. The issue is if we can get a better player to replace him…
 

Peterborough aren’t the only team to run through our midfield. 
 

I like bird but I don’t think he is dominating games as I hoped he would. 

They were better than us. They moved the ball well at pace and we did well to be in front twice but the better team won. 
 

I was impressed by how hard we worked. That was partly down to the fact that they used the ball better than we did. 
 

Shout out to Collins. Thought he worked his thingies off today. 

Nelson began the season 7 out of ten most games.  Now he’s 8 out of ten.

Anyone else giggling at their keepers name? Grabbed by Tickle the best so far. 

A tickle in the box?
