Great game last night. First half played at breakneck speed. First teamers can only dream to have the pace of the U23's! Marcus Wood was the MOTM lots of skill and pace he would fit in the first team (but of course with Parky in charge with his utter fear of youth- he wont) Much better start to the season compared with last year. As usual David Lee's style of real football, quick pass and move played at speed is a joy to watch and so exciting compared to........ www.theboltonnews.co.uk/sport/16416379.wanderers-under-23s-make-a-winning-start-against-bristol-city/

Has Parky stopped watching the U23's? The senior "coaches" were there tonight but not Parky. It is probably too hurtful and embarrassing to him to watch REAL football played at a pace he can only dream about for his ageing journeymen.
First goal after a few minutes. A perfect cross by Conor Hall at speed from the right wing, straight on to the head of an onrushing Pritchard and boom into the net and we were one nil up. Our second goal in the second half? Conor Hall. I will hopefully post videos later. We beat Coventry 2-1.

4 nil. Just brilliant. Real Football. I would love David Lee to take over from Perky.

4 nil. Just brilliant. Real Football. I would love David Lee to take over from Perky. So would many of us Pedro but I'm afraid it's just wishful thinking. Some will say it's a big step up from development to Championship and of course that's true but other players have done it and seem to be making a fist of it so there seems no reason why DL couldn't also. I think if he had an experienced mentor alongside him it would be more than worth a go but sadly until something major changes with ownership we're stuck with Parky for the foreseeable future, unless of course the rumoured, potential move to Reading is true?

Well David Lee might not want the job. Gets to play his style with little pressure, no media, low profile, always be a cult hero with the fans. He might think he's at the best place he can be.
I'm not sure what the point of the development squad is at present. Big escalator in the sky with no destination. When you've reached the top you drop all the way back down.
Don't know who's to blame. Parky doesn't want light, smaller players and that's all we seem to produce. It works and then it doesnt.
Of course in my mind we would be taking those players and running with them but for whatever reason, and I will go a while comment without pointing the blame, that's not happening.

We are most definitely missing a trick here with David Lee

We are most definitely missing a trick here with David Lee I hear he has recently invested in a restaurant? Begs the question I asked last year. If he had poor bookings, regulars not returning and microwave Dave as head chef but a promising talented Sous chef surely what happens next would be obvious?

Just picking out a few quotes to contrast what this side is doing and how night and day they are with the seniors.
"Wanderers started the brighter of the sides, having had plenty of possession"
"A plethora of chance...came for David Lee's men"
"The Whites reacted well going on to create several chances."
"The pressure from Wanderers paid dividends"
And more to the point.
"Bolton Wanderers were victorious on Saturday afternoon"
I know it's a far fetched Idea but I would love it if we could make a point and say have 16000 turn up for a U23 game, to show Ken the fans are here and prepared to come and watch if it's worth watching. OR sending all away support to these games instead.
Ultimately it's never going to happen but just want to think of something that can ram a message home to Ken. OR maybe Phil. May be he doesn't have to lose his job, maybe he can think if I've only got until Xmas I might as well roll the dice, go all out and who knows it may be the turning point like Millwall last season. No fear football!

Three on the trot even without Conor and Politic. They know how to score and they know how to WIN! Come on Ken! Do the right thing!

I like the bit about them playing high up and closing forest down quickly. When did our first eleven ever do that? I really would like to see DL given a chance with the first team if Parky does go, even if only until January to see how he gets on. Surely can't do worse than Parkinson?

I do feel sorry for the under 23's player's cause unless some scouts are there from non league teams to take them on loan,they are never going to get a look in at playing first team football cause they have no chance in the Bolton set up unless you are closer to 40 than 20 and that has got to piss them off.
