Very cynical side are Bolton. Be amazed if they finish with 11.

Me too, they won't score that many.

They might be poor but no excuses, we need to be picking up points in these type of games.

It's very difficult when the other side aren't even trying to keep the ball. We'll create chances,but you have to take them when they happen, because there won't be many.

[SaintRam]

Home fans upset that a good tackle isn't a penalty, but boo-ing Bennett for getting hurt in a foul that should have been a red.

And the word of the day from Ramage is :-

NULLIFY

Use it often..... particularly if you know what it means!

[Van der MoodHoover]

The stats are saying that we have had 83.5% possession. 

If true then the goal must have been about their only touch.?

Apparently we’re on 81% possession. It’ll come... ?

But unfortunately not one effort on target yet.... this would have been their game plan... sit in, give us the ball, hit on counter or score at set pieces, stop-start game........ all going to plan for them regrettably- but not unsurprisingly in my view...

Frank needs to tinker....

They've made 30 passes in 40 or so minutes. One of those...

But in all honesty that’s what they have done thus far- nullified is.

Nugent not in the game at all. Mount and Wilson quiet. Full backs not getting up the pitch.

A few heavy legs from Tuesday ?

Fozzy is having a bad day. Looks like he’s playing with zero confidence. Odd. 

Probably just tired, tbh. 

[CapeTownRams]

That was classic- 20 passes - they sit in- we give ball away- they counter..... sigh

[eddie]

Concentrating on the cup?

[Andicis]

Could do with with changes at half time. I'd like to see Lawrence and Marriott.

To be fair we haven’t really created any chances yet...

[SaintRam]

Scissor challenge from Johnson, a yellow to a lot of refs. No real complaints there.

Nah we just don’t do 1st halves. We didn’t do second halves last seasons so we’ve decided to mix it up. Playing for 90 mins is sooooo 2013?

[CapeTownRams]

Think I might go Wags for Bennett and Marriott for Nugent. And go slightly more direct.

[SaintRam]

3 yellows for Bolton in the first half. 

[SaintRam]

When has Forsyth ever gone past 3+ players? Why has he tried to do it 4 times in this game? 

[Mr Tibbs]

I don't think I can take another half of Craig Forsyth playing like this.
