    Following on from the crazy starting selections, we follow up with baffling substitutes. DKD stays on, but Watters goes off.

    The mentality at our club is a disgrace tbh.

    You know what’s nuts Bolton fans want Evatt out and here we come along and hand them 3 points.

    So frustrating. These have been bang average. Any kind of quality in key moments and we win this game comfortably.

    We're toothless and lacking in composure when in good positions. Until that's addressed we're going nowhere. 80 shots over three games recently, scored twice and failed to find the net in two of the games. Plenty chances here with no return.

    On the other hand we seem to concede regularly to soft half chances.

    Only player we have capable of stretching them with his pace and he's subbed. Weird

    MDG is simply not good enough.

    We have auch a limited set of players yet spend so much time trying to play out of our own half rather than be more direct and try and play where they can’t high press us.

    Put it on a plate for Russell and drew a decent save first half

    He’s done more than DKD. He’s stretched their defence by running the lines well. DKD a bystander again.

    Looked to me like he was clapping both sets of fans, which he intimated he would do in his pre-match interview

    The Sky commentator will be in tears if we get something from this. Only just realised he’s Evatt’s brother.

    How on earth is that a foul. Truly dreadful refereeing. INCOMPETENT!

    Not watched majority of the game but every 50/50 the refs awarded to Bolton. Biased refs are definitely a thing.

    Referred has made some interesting decisions today. Surely got a future with our recruitment team.

    Another chance, another inexplicable free kick.
