Re: Bolton Post Match
 

The Bolton fans are horrendous. We have them a week on Saturday and after the problems last year the game has been changed to a 12-30 ko.
They invaded the pitch here at The Mazuma and turned a disabled man out of his shop-rider among other things.

When the lock-down was on in 2020/21 and no fans allowed in grounds , hundreds of them travelled illegally to Morecambe and stood on the land by the road only for Evatt and his team to reward them by coming across and applauding them !

Be nice to see them miss out on promotion.

Tbh, if both Stanley and Morecambe were to stay in L1, I’d rather see Bolton promoted so we never have to host that bunch of yobs again.

There's a clip doing the rounds on Twitter that a fan has put up. Hearing that Liam has "multiple facial fractures" - not good.

Re: Bolton Post Match
 

This is what the club has posted on Twitter:
Coley has confirmed that@LiamCoyle_99 suffered multiple facial fractures and will be monitored by the #asfc medical staff over the next couple of days. Everyone at the club wishes Liam a safe and successful recovery.

Re: Bolton Post Match
 

Seems like my evaluation of Trafford’s dangerous challenge was correct and also my assessment of the failure of the referee to apply FA Laws Rule 1……….
Quote my earlier post……

Robert Mitchell
In my honest opinion James Trafford used “excessive force” in wiping out Coyle last night. Which is a Red Card offence according to FA Laws of the Game, Rule 1. Quote. “Using excessive force is when a player exceeds the necessary use of force and endangers the safety of an opponent and must be sent off“.

There should be a retrospective disciplinary action to ban Trafford and to consider the referee’s failure to apply the Laws of the game. Shocking, but nothing will change……..this referee will be officiating at a League match somewhere on Saturday no doubt!:idunno:

Get fit soon Liam. Best wishes.:wub8:

Re: Bolton Post Match
 

Tommy Leigh has been ‘Retrospectively Cited’ for the relatively mild use of an elbow. Compare that with the excessive force used by James Trafford on Liam Coyle which was far far worse IMHO! If Tommy Leigh get as a three match ban then Trafford should be banned for a much larger number of matches.:mad:

Re: Bolton Post Match
 

Problem is that ref didn't see the Leigh incident therefore retrospective punishment can be given out.

No recourse for Trafford because ref saw it and booked him.

Re: Bolton Post Match
 

We’ve had several (almost) full houses this season, with very passionate and vociferous fans, from much ‘bigger’ clubs.
But none other Bolton showed such thuggish and infantile behaviour.

Should we ever have the ‘pleasure’ of hosting Bolton again I’d be happy if the club limited their tickets to the absolute minimum*, confined them to the Coppice Terrace (except for a few spaces and seats for less able), and took a hit on the gate receipts. I’d even be willing to chip in a fiver to offset the loss.
Who needs a house full of morons?
If that’s how they behave when they’ve won….?

* even @ 10%, 500 Bolton fans could be too many.

Re: Bolton Post Match
 

So a load of yobs can go to someone else's ground, cause trouble and it's not their fault? Do stadium bans still stand for entering the playing area?

Re: Bolton Post Match
 

Bolton boss thinks even the yellow card was harsh, words fail me!
