    Kathcairns reacted to LazloW in Bolton sellout.   
    I referred to the ‘incident’ in another thread. Happened a few rows in front of me and didn’t see what kicked it off.  I’m in the last block that still sits. The block to my left, next to the away fans, is now pretty much standing only; shouldn’t be, but it is.  Feel sorry for fans who bought tickets there assuming it was seating (it has escalated over the last few seasons).   If you are the only person in ‘my’ block who is standing up then you ought to know you’re in the wrong and sit down. Common courtesy, politeness, not being a selfish d-head… it would be nice to think people wouldn’t need to be asked to sit down in an area where clearly everybody else is seated. 
    Quite happy for people to stand where designated, but hope it doesn’t spread. Sat in my seat since Pride Park opened and it would a shame to move.

    That depends whether or not you think fans can't chant as loudly sitting down. Fans standing doesn't guarantee they'll sing more - witness the South Stand at times these last two seasons. Banning mobile phones would be more effective in that respect, then they'd have to concentrate on the game, boring or otherwise. Closing the food and drink concessions while the game is ongoing would also help.
    No-one should be forced to stand because someone else wants to break the stadium rules. Some people can't stand for more than a few minutes whether that's due to age or physical problems, but they're no lesser fans than the ones who want to stand.

    It certainly wasn’t safe that day, I remember the crowd surges it was wonder no one was seriously hurt. A great atmosphere and marvellous football though🐏

    90 pts should do it, 92 certainly will. Focus on that rather than what other teams are doing. Win the next game, that is all for now.

    It’s the togetherness that impresses me most. It’s a hard thing to build but Paul and his team have managed it.

    I'm not here to challenge anyones opinions, they are what they are, let them be.
    Personally I'm delighted with the job that Warne is doing, I think Dwight Gayles recent interview and the scenes at full time in front of a sell out crowd on Saturday show the togetherness of this team is a credit to the management team. 
    His style may seem a little unorthodox to some and it won't suit every player, yet it's working with what was assembled whilst scraping barrels under EFL's restrictions makes it even more of an achievement.
    When you look at the likes of Sunderland, Leeds, Forest who came down here, to think we can be in and out in 2 seasons is truly remarkable given the state of the club.
    Important to point out, the season isn't done, we still have 7 huge games to play before we can start to think about the Championship, although no matter what happens between now and May, I have seen significant improvement to be fully behind Warne next season regardless of what division we are in.

    The old saying goes: Pessimism is the triumph of experience over hope!
    The second one goes: Pessimist are rarely disappointed!
    I know both to be true but I am always an optimist.

    It's almost like you are willing failure.  Sadly, you are not alone in that, on here.
    I sincerely hope you only have this outlook with regards to DCFC, and not in your life in general.

    Win something again ? ,,,,, winning something is done by winning single games of football , when you really are a derby fan then games like Saturday against Bolton cannot fail to get right into you , the excitement, the joy ,the passion just fills you and bubbles out , you can’t help it , you roy are one of two this week who has none of that , not one iota of that , the only passion is to come on and rubbish it , @ Chrismartin only passion to come on and tell us how poor the league is , sorry but I don’t see derby fans there and not being able to get to games for any reason is not a factor , it’s in you even if the best you can manage is to follow results , I know , I’ve been there in that position many times over the years 
    the best you’ve managed ( like pulling teeth ) is begrudgingly saying you will be happy if we are promoted when pulled up and pressed on this constant rubbishing of everything derby and trying to destroy others joy at good times for us and our club ,, ffs we’ve had our fill of bad stuff for the last few years🤷🏻‍♂️

    Yep , really if you read this stuff all it is is a few people constantly coming on and telling us don’t enjoy us doing well because it means nothing , the league is poor and anything derby do or achieve has no value and means nothing , the manager is crap and even if we get promotion it will be in spite of him and we and him are just storing up misery for next season or the one after that and on and on and on ,
    the games up , you can only get away with that so long before it’s clear to everyone your just a troll or most likely a fan of another club

    What’s so funny?
    Two of Warne’s substitutes combined to win us the game.
    Warne got his tactics and his in-game changes spot on.
    After all, he went home with the three points, meanwhile Evatt went home with a service station meal deal.

    Just read some of the crap being posted that Bolton were the better team and deserved at the least a draw, what utter rubbish.
    Over the years have we've heard managers and football pundits say that good teams know how to win ugly when things aren't going right for them.
    How many games have we had sixty plus percent of the game only to come away losing. Saturday we achieved what Bolton, with all their perceived better football couldn't do, we scored a goal that won the game.
    If that was winning ugly, then I'll that from the remaining seven games, if it means we accumulate the points required to see us promoted.

    Spot on. This straight on picture has a foreshortening effect, so can end up showing what certain people want it to show.
    Very much like the disputed catches that can happen in cricket, that look different front on as opposed to side on.

    People keep referring to this still taken from a video as if it's conclusive evidence that Waghorn  handled the ball (maybe it also hit the hand of the Bolton defender that is 'obviously' immediately behind Waghorn and in the path of the ball 😄) but at full speed Waghorn lifts his arm to let the ball pass. Odd that no-one from Bolton has produced a slo-mo clip that would show frame-by-frame what actually happened, isn't it? 😏
    I'm now more than ever convinced that the goal wouldn't have been disallowed even under VAR, because whatever faint touch the ball got on Waggy's arm (it certainly wasn't vice-versa) didn't affect the outcome.
