[Ned the Donkey]

Reyt goyal

 

[Champagneblade]

My God.

Watching these guys this season is going to kill us all!

 

[YES Blade]

Donovan is one of the few bright sparks from tonight. At least we got one player with a bit of something about him.

 

[DromoreBlade]

Wow, did not see that coming

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

Donovan is getting better and better. At least he looks like a good addition.

Has a running style like Ili. Love it.

 

[DeanLearner'sCat]

That was a really fun game with loads of chances at both ends but, if we're going to be that open, better teams (no disrespect to Bolton) will batter us.

 

[espoo blade]

Donovan and Cooper won us that. Superb!

 

[Berkshire Blade]

I really really really enjoy Donavon

Been a fan since he came in. Has something about him.

 

[Bill the bee]

Great goal and performance will do his confidence the hell of a boost

 

[blades78]

Donovan outstanding tonight. Maintains near to that and he's an improvement on Brooks.

Hope Kitching can shore the the defence as we look all over the place

 

[Belvedere Blade]

At long last

 

[William Large]

Very, very lucky to win that after an absolutely shocking second half display which was up there with some of the worst I have seen for a long while.
First half we could have should have been out of sight but mainly due to Bolton being shite.
Take a bow Donovan. Grafted for 90 mins and never stoped trying.
Still time to sell Cannon cos he was a waste of oxygen when he came on.

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

Bad performance but much needed points, now pray for the rest of the night we get a O'hare replacement

 

[Dave9777]

🫪 fantastic win nicked Gew on Donovan!

 

[Rufus Smalls]

we’ve played two promoted sides scored 4 conceded 4 … we’re definitely in trouble and if wilder defends this 2nd half I will lose what little respect I still have for him

Phillips shit - but he did well with the tackle and pass for the goal

Cannon shit

Arblaster shit

Shackleton shit

Saved by two players Cooper and Donovan …

However happy we won as it’s extremely important we win against these teams as we won’t against stronger opposition …

The main thing is we foubd a way

Have to agree, Arblaster seems lost in the midfield at the minute.

 

[Half Bond Jls]

Nice one Donovan. Got my blood pressure back down lad

 

[espoo blade]

Been a fan since he came in. Has something about him.

Yep, looked a bit nervy and wasteful at the beginning, but now he was one of the calmest on the pitch and so hard-working and full of quality!

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

Take the rough with the smooth.

Absolute star in the making.

 

[Wickersley Blade]

Donovan is one of the few bright sparks from tonight. At least we got one player with a bit of something about him.

Cooper made it possible, and I have to say aside his obvious qualities, Donovan also always works so hard for the team.

 

[The Crab]

The rest should be giving their win bonuses to Coops and Donovan.

Poor 2nd half but a win is a win

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Was slightly worried about bamford but that goal will hopefully give him confidence.

Cooper back to his best

Wild game that. Too wild

 

[Younger Dryas Blade]

Has Rosen sent a text to Bettis yet about how much can we sell Donovan for?

 

[Pitsmoorian]

Uwotm8

Just...mellow fellow

 

[Thrice]

Still unbeaten this season and you have to wonder how. Could've easily lost each one of those games.

The points are nice, but that luck won't last forever.

 

[MartBlade]

Have to agree, Arblaster seems lost in the midfield at the minute.

Yep … we lost all shape when Phillips and Arblaster came on… and compounded that with our back 4 deciding not to bother about marking or defending in our box.

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

Yep … we lost all shape when Phillips and Arblaster came on… and compounded that with our back 4 deciding not to bother about marking or defending in our box.

Jairo-Phillips probably the best 2 but neither can get forward that much.

 

[Harry's Game]

Close the window before someone bids for Cooper

 

[Jan Age]

Have to agree, Arblaster seems lost in the midfield at the minute.

It’s a shame because pre-injury he looked good and I also like him as a person … but he needs a loan

 

[FredZeppelin]

You were saying?

I was saying.....exactly what I said. We are one injury to Cooper away from relegation. At this stage you could also add Bamford to that statement.

The win tonight will hide the huge cracks to people like you, the Wilder lovers, and the ownership defenders but no doubt we'll revisit this conversation in a few weeks when things turn to shit and we've played a few more better teams. If I'm wrong I'll be very happy to admit it.

Bolton are toss and (imo) I think they'll go down but a win is a win.

United is rotten from the head downwards and one win tonight isn't going to change things one bit.

[Blood Red]

A hard watch ,but it all came good in the end.
Thank God for Jason .
