While the premier league and championship are on a break no rest for the wicked as the league one and two fixtures plough ahead relentlessly. Today's trip to Shrewsbury not gay meadow anymore but another new ground the greenhous meadow stadium is the 5th game for Bolton in 15 days. A journey of between 82.1 and 94.7 miles depending on which route you take. Bolton in 2nd place 4 points clear of 3rd will still be 2nd going into next Saturdays home match v chesterfield no matter what happens today. Bolton in form. Won the last 4, scored 4 in each of the last 3 away games, unbeaten in 6 and just 1 defeat in 11. Shrewsbury 20th 1 point above port vale in the relegation zone and will be desperate for 3 points today. Form wise they have won 4 out of the last 6 and have scored in each of the last 10 games. Don't expect a 0-0. Team news. Buxton, Davies, Wilson out for the season. The heavy fixture list has taken its toll as according to the beano beevers, spearing, pratley and Alf have minor injuries. Thorpe, moxey,karacan, long could come in as replacements.

Ticket sales have reached 20,000. Tickets priced at a fiver have resulted in our largest gate for quite some time.
Hopefully the players will give the crowd something to shout about (in a good way). C.O.Y.W.M.

Do you worry they will suffer stage fright against a team at the wrong end of the table especially with a such partisan crowd.
The Hamlet advert was mentioned above be prepared just in case we have been here before in the good old days. Then again we may get a proper goal feast (no relation to a feast ice cream).

Don't get me going again about the ticket prices. Should make it £15 across the board.

Since I've not got the red eye just yet can I carry my £5 ticket offer over to another match ?

Pasty, I sincerely hope that the guys will put on a good display and hammer them.
We still have to play more away games than home games and the fans need to see the team firing on all cylinders and putting the ball into the onion bag.

They're an odd lot on the beano website. No moderation they can say what they want. Much nicer people on here. Took nearly a week to do it and went off tangent with the crunchie thing but we finally made the century mark. To tomorrow

More !
I've been tempted once in a while to sign up and post on the Beano comments I'm glad I didn't. Over here we don't need moderating living in a little safe place to talk Wanderers with our star live in play comments.
The internet of things makes you think of the Beano comments and all the bad things which parts of the interweb thingy has become gone are the days of plain green text internet on a terminal we must be the closest you can get to that on here Bliss init

Well done Benny and I know I speak for the guys who contribute to articles on live games, when I say a sincere thank you for all your efforts in helping to keep this forum alive and kicking. Thank you.
Pasty also deserves a mention as the leading poster on the forum. So well done to you both.
