Half Time 0-1
Opponents poor but still beating us.
Marc Iles in the BEN says "The cold might be making this worse, but the game has been terrible. "
Hard to see how we'll score

HOPELESS 2-0 No tackling from Wanderers midfield and sub runs through to score And we managed to 'allow' them a second goal whilst we had 60% possession Unreal

Full Time
2-2
Commentator describes it as a rotten game of football but at least a point and credit for fightback

Nice way to end the night and probably papering a few cracks. We need to get these guys on the training ground now and find a back pairing who can defend. They can't keep having the lapses and let teams go one and two in the lead because we all know Dobbie and Silva goals aren't to be relied on.
I don't get the Woolery up front on his own to be honest, talk about feast or famine? He's gone from 2 mins. A match to leading the way, away from home. I just hope that Neil has more patience as he's been very fast to dismiss younger players.

Proper pissed myself laughing at Mark Chapman reading out a text on BBC5Live "Can you give a big shout out to the two Wanderers fans that left Molyneaux when Bolton were 2 nil down"

I've seen a point,two lucky goals but perhaps no more than we deserved having been the better team for all but the last twenty of the first half and first 15 of second.
We began really brightly with Woolery fast and sharp. He had a good chance. However as usual success carried the seeds of misfortune. We lost the ball in attack ,a simple pass cut us in half. Amos this time made a good save but the ball fell to who else Mason and he rammed it in as he can.
In this first half Feeney didn't feature. Silva ran well and had a few tricks but threatened little. I was as ever confirmed in the view that we cannot have two wingers in an away game even if they offer pace.
A strength though was our midfield. I thought Trotter throughout and Spearing most of the time battled really well and Trotter was spraying the ball about easily and well. Both made errors but overall they had a good grip. Davies was insipid, making good runs but opting out of shooting .
We were clearly imbalanced and they got on top without creating much.
In the second half we battled away and Feeney in particular made a number of opportunities on the right. Vela too came into it as we took the game to them..
Suddenly we were two down after a strong run from the right and curling shot past Amos who tonight had a pretty good game. I think a sub scored which was a wake up call. We all thought this was yet another away game lost.
Heskey came on and we became a threat. He needed a partner but toughened us up. Suddenly Vela and Feeney combined. Trotter rose to head the ball home unopposed but inexplicably missed the ball. So bad was the miss that it fooled everyone and the ball landed on Silva ' s head for a goal.
Could we? It didn't look likely . But Dobbie came on. We won a free kick and he cracked it in via a big deflection Hurrah! And this time we saw the game out sensibly.
As I say :no more than we deserved. Their crowd really got on to them and it gave us hope
Amos 7 Vela 5 Holding 6 Dervite 5 Moxey 6 Trotter 8 Spearing 7 Davies 4 Woolery 5 Feeney 6 Silva 6

Some pluses. Although inexperienced Woolery did OK for 65 minutes. He is far better than Madine in that solitary role and generally. I think that if he gets a run of games we will see him pot a goal or two..
Holding struggled a bit at centre half but was good on the ball and exuded class. I think he would transform us completely if he played ahead of a defence as Dier does for Spurs
Feeney bless him makes me warm to him. He really did well in the second half
Spearing added much needed fight. He came in for Pratley presumably and should keep his place.
But again Trotter was our best player forward and back. If he keeps fit we have just a glimmer of a chance....but Neil needs to step up. This despite our ascendancy was heading for another routine counter attacked defeat and we had two giant slices of luck

Hard to see how we'll scoreThat's how we score - we get lucky! Both goals had a massive amount of luck to them but credit for continuing to fight after going 2-0 down. We have to do something about always conceding the first goal and often pretty early in the game. I still go on about 2 wingers being excessive but Mr Lennon will continue with this shape. We MUST win on Saturday or tonight will be wasted.
