Confirmed Team & Match Thread Vs Bolton

[Tom]

Stevie's carrying a knock too.


fecking hell, sky saying it's an "even" game. We've had 8 shots they've had one. If that's not biased reporting what is?

[Bob]

Why aren't we using Pennant - he's standing out on the touch line in yards of space - Bolton aren't even bothering to mark him anymore?

He wont be in the second half. Gerrard should not be playing on the left, and Speedy should be on!!

Speedy isn't playing mate. As for Gerrard playing on the left it's been ok until now ... He's been switching with Pennant once or twice already.

[BJC]

Can the goalie throw the ball up and kick it outside the area?

Radio 5 didn't think it was a dodgy decision.

most ugly team since wimbledon, the whole of bolton game plan is to disrupt play rather than play football

[Guest]

Fook off Radio 5 if they see it that way ... it wasn't illegal whatsoever.

[Rohan]

What I don't understand is what the hell was Hyypia doing in that wall? He was stood almost behind Pennant?! If he was next to Pennant he would have been inline with the shot and could have blocked it.

Makes no sense.

Jesus, just had a look at the bench. Zenden

Has to happen. Pennant is totally ineffective.

Hyypia's passing was a low point of this first half. It's the only part of his game that riles me to be honest.

The decision makes no sence. A ****ing homer. Not happy.

Cracks open a beer

They obviously haven't seen it. Technically it's no different than if he'd rolled it outside the area along the ground and kicked it. What utter bollocks, these people don't know the basic laws of the game.

Radio 5 called it as the linesman did, until they saw the replay, and where the linesman was, then they decided it was a shocking call by the linesman.

Will open a beer too ...

Hopefully the lads gonna stuff these Bolton ****ers in the second half. We need to show character over adversity in this one ... We've been playing good football and we should continue in this way. Come on lads.

definately a ***cking idiotic linesman that

I've their comms on and that's not the case. They've said it was contentious on several occasions.

Yes of course the goalie can throw the ball up and kick it outside the area. The linesman flagged for handling outside the box - all he can give it for. He blatantly did not handle outside the box. The fans are calling the shots
