Boxing day fixtures throw up some odd results and coupon busters. So there's some room for hope for our first away of the season.
They're on good form and I'm still wondering why Matt Derbyshire isn't playing at a slightly higher level. He seems to still have that knack for a goal. But what concerns me is that we've given the players and staff the whole of xmas day off and will be travelling up the same day as the match.
In the past we've bee let down by the behaviour of senior figures Spearing in Ibiza and Danns (on a random Tuesday night for no reason) and now the manager can't even be trusted to spend the night in a hotel(link to why we're not training and then heading to a hotel?)
We've not had good experiences at "The New York" Stadium in the short past but we need something from this game.
Thinking anything is possible and Neil after his reprieve needs to start repaying some faith shown in him(more the fans, the boards hands are pretty tied)
I'll go for a 2-3 win for us.

I hope it is a 5 goal thriller OooM and when your down at the bottom in this cack league, owt's possible.. Zach's back so I'm hoping for his first hat trick!!!! No doubt that fellar that's just joined them from us will be like a spy in the camp, but that said, if they don't know how crap we are without our U21 coach on their books, well then they've no chance! Can't remember the chaps name, is it Hughes or summat?
I'll go 2-3 as well and that really will be a 'Fairy Tale from New York' (Stadium). Sorry!!! Couldn't resist...
Once remember going to Millmoor when we had Tony Cunningham up front for us. We got beat then... COYWM Merry Chrimbo Trotters

I remember the Tony Cunningham game at Rotherham also but didn't we draw 2-2? I'll have to look that one up anyway onto the current game in which we have to win the law of averages say we have to win sometime so I'm going for a win.
Rotherham 0 Bolton 1

Yes, it was definitely 2-2.
They scored first; Tony Cunningham then scored 2 in the second half but Rotherham equalised in the last minute. It was probably those dropped points that cost us automatic promotion that year and led to play-off disappointment.
I don't know why after the events of the last few months and, particularly, this week when you think it can’t get any worse and it does but I am back to optimism again today after a really good Christmas Day. So let’s go for a 2-1 win and the start of the recovery.

My partner can't understand how or why I'm always optimistic come match day....I'm not always I suppose, Chelsea away etc but generally for some strange reason I always feel we've got a chance, after supporting Bolton for over 40 years now you would think I would have learnt!! Still 0-1 win today for me, don't care who scores just as long as we get three points!!

I must have walked out before they scored Remember the boozer right next to the ground, cracking boozer it were an all..

I didn't think it could get any worse, I wasn't there luckily and didn't listen to it but 4-0 just shows how absolutely shocking we are now. I don't see an end to it, Lennon picks the same team that has served us so well all season each and every week! It's just criminal, this is far beyond the realms of the shite that Freedman used to serve up We likely can't afford to sack him, hell -we can't even afford to pay him and he fully knows it. Don't pay the players, let them walk in January (save us hundreds of thousands) and bring in the U21's can't be anywhere near as bad as this
