Well done to one and all. 👍😁

We'll win at Pompey.
You heard it here first.
Actually, I'm pretty sure B4 said it first - and this is his year.

We all can, and have, say what we want about Paul Warne and some of the players. But what cannot be denied is that this group run through brick walls for him. The grit, determination and will from this group is fantastic. 

Do whatever it takes to get Ebou Adams in the summer.

Good work again Daniel.
Keep it up👍👍

SOME Wycombe fans (and I stress "some") are now in the stage of trying to justify what Coupiggy is doing: 

The difference is "pal", that no other clubs actively did things that jeopardised the survival of Wycombe in the way that their owner has now done to 2 clubs. 

So the Wycombe money for this is being pumped in by a Georgian billionaire with links to sanctioned Russians. 
Wycombe are simply disgusting. Extorted us during admin when we had no means to defend ourselves and now this? Utterly revolting. If they ever find themselves in trouble I'll have no sympathy for them.

Well, let's hope today's referee watched the game at your ground earlier in the season and tries a bit harder than that ref not to be conned into awarding you a penalty for a foul committed outside the penalty area or sending off our keeper for blocking the ball with his chest because, on the evidence from that day, your players aren't going to protest about the unfairness of such mistakes, are they?
 

Be more B4.

I’ve changed Burton to Bolton, but the sentiment remains the same
B4 April 2023……………………If ever we needed a rallying call.
 
Well calling all derby fans to get really really really behind the lads we need get behind the lads lets have wall of noise and have sea of black and white let's have scafs flags and balloons let's cheer lads on into the play offs. The louder we are the better lads play. Let  bolton players shake with fear and let them think what on earth have we got our selfs into here.
 
…………..no further comment required! 

You can’t make the point that if Gayle didn’t handle the ball, you’d be ahead of us, then just say “water under the bridge” when it’s pointed out that Bolton have directly benefited from a refereeing error this season too.
Had the referee correctly identified that Wildsmith didn’t handle the ball at the Toughsheet Stadium, and didn’t send him off, then we may have got at least a point from that game. That’s a swing of at least 3 points against an important promotion rival, meaning we would currently be 4 points clear rather than one.
We also conceded a last minute equaliser against Pompey which looked very much offside. Again, that’s a swing of 3 points. Add those two poor decisions together, and not only are we waving you goodbye in the distance, we’re top of the league.
But you can point to any given decision over the course of the season and say “what if?” I don’t think Gayle deliberately handled the ball. It was a handball, but the goalkeeper made up the ref’s decision by charging out and making contact.
We’re both in League 1, we both know the standard of refereeing leaves a lot to be desired. I’d argue we’ve been on the receiving end of poor officiating much more than we’ve benefitted this season.
At the end of the day, it’s tough sheet, and you just have to get on with it.

Yes how terrible. I imagine we would also surround a ref pleading for a red card for handball after the ball hits a goalkeeper’s chest. We won’ t mention disallowing a goal to give a penalty and awarding a penalty for a foul outside of the box as I am sure you came on here to apologise for all three of those events and Bolton magnanimously returned the three points after the game being the doyens of fair play that you clearly are. Bravo! 

Oh the irony of a Bolton fan coming coming on here complaining about referees decisions 😂

I’d like to see an unchanged team. I have a sense they have finally gelled. Why though ?
Is it because we have Gayle’s threat / skill or is it because Adams has given us real bite or because Wardy is showing his pre injury effectiveness along with Sibs growing in to his new role. All good stuff and part of a developing team, so probably all of the above 🤣

Looking forward to the trip. It was at this match last year that I found myself sitting next to B4 for the first time, although I was too shy to tell him I knew who he was! Ultimately it was because of him that I started posting after years of reading, as I wanted to pay my respects. So here's to B4, thanks for getting me involved, and if you can, three points would go down nicely. 

Bucko and co doing some sterling work, it would appear. I wasn't overly enamoured when I heard he was taking over, but it seems I massively underestimated him and the rebuild has been as rapid as it's been impressive. Really quite excited by the U18s group too. We now find ourselves blessed with some serious talent again, so I just hope we can find a way to hang onto them long enough to get them contracted. Cruz Allen for instance, has been at the club since he was 10, but is on the radar of half the PL it would seem. Honestly not sure I could cope with the likes of Manure, Chelsea and Liverpool harvesting our best young players for buttons again 😔

Yes, come on Daniel (B4) you didn’t deliver on me losing a few pounds with grief, so the least you can do is pick the Rams up. It can be an early birthday present for me 😂

Only a young lad called Tom Huddlestone

Waa planning this away,  fly into Southampton and back next day ..
 
All I can say is

Good luck getting back from Portsmouth at that time.
From the broadcaster point of view, I get it, huge game.
Fans though? Just another 2 fingers up.

Weston with 2, Allen and fapetu with the others. Bardell, Weston and Fapetu have assists

11 goals/assists in 11 U18 league games this season and he's still only 16 (until tomorrow).
I think it's a really special crop of players and wouldn't be surprised if we challenge for the title next season. 9 of today's starters are only first year scholars.
