After 2 postponed away matches it's back to the unibol where there should be a match tonight thanks to under soil heating. Rearranged from 29th December this is the first competitive match between the clubs. Morecambe flying high in 7th the final play off position. Soberingly without playing Bolton have slipped to 20th with only stevenage, barrow, grimsby and southend below them in the entire football league. Such is the tight nature of this league a win will put Bolton within 7 points of morecambe so a win tonight is essential if the club has any ambitions to make the play offs. Team news. Sarcevic still out, lee and 1 unnamed player are isolating. Everyone else apart from the 2 long term injured are available. 7pm kick off. Usual ifollow coverage.

Losing 2 points all down to evatt. In control but evatt couldn't wait to unwrap his new toys. 3 subs too early, totally disrupted the rhythm. Did well to hang in there for a point at the end.

Highlights was the red by invitation by their lad going to ground the way he did ? I'd be expecting a reduction for it.

It’s always worth getting 3/4 goals in front just in case a player gets sent off, 🤦♂️

Golden, if only we could score three or four goals in a game, we would be the top of the league. There is no doubt that we create chances be we aren't clinical enough in front of goal.

A new contract for Thomason
A quick shuffle of those that finished last night to get Brockbank, Sarcevic and the Maverick in an eleven and we should be up and running.

Just need Brockbank to make a quick recovery and that shuffle above is on. Get that sorted and I'll be going for a win.

So Maddison's red card has been totally withdrawn and he is ready to play on Saturday.
One has to wonder if we would have dropped two points had he stayed on the pitch.
Evatt says that clubs that are found out cheating should be fined. I would go one further and say any points they had gained in the match should be removed and awarded to the opposition plus a fine. That would perhaps keep the opposition bench quiet and make managers instil fair play into their team.
I realise it's a contentious point but what are your views?

Today's game is full of softies and actors once Sky arrived the rot started we'll never get back to playing a good old game of football
With the way it is today it's heading for hardly any contact being allowed with girls and boys mixed teams, looking at some of the players today you could be forgiven for thinking it's already happened.
