    We’ve got some weird fans.

    Let’s not forget some even booed Hourihane when he played against us.

    If/when we ever sell DKD he’d get booed on his return. It’s bonkers……

    Me too. Competing with Vickers.

    But he’s an option up top that we don’t have right now.

    So an extra forward who can play all across the front like McAtee would be ideal.

    I think he can be a really good signing but what annoys me with him is his constant berating of teammates.

    Hopefully he’s grown out of it but it was like he had to give a team mate a public dressing down if they didn’t find him with a pass.

    You're lucky then Andy lol
    Once when I working with Toby, the ponty was throwing about a space hopper which was fully inflated, it came down from the back with some force and hit two of the disabled supporters, one at the back of the head before bouncing back hitting the person behind them before bouncing back and hitting the other at the side of their face, both supporters were sat in wheel chairs. It hit them with some force and then bounced towards me, I caught it and gave it to the chief steward, followed by checking on the two of them to make sure they were okay. They were Shook up but ok
    I then set off towards the West stand to a chorus of W*nker W*nker Wa*ker most of the way across the ponty then a chorus of we want our ball back rang out .lol

    What you do in the privacy of your own home is no business of anyone else and they shouldn't be nosying at you through your window.

    I mean it’s not happening is it. It’s a baseless rumour created from thin air.

    It would be a good signing though. We have absolutely zero forward options off the bench. McGoldrick won’t play 90 mins in all competitions all season. We need more than nothing off the bench. I’d love us to sign a different kind of option. A big thug, good in the air, combative or a Neil Shipperley type for something a bit different that allows us to go long if needed but I don’t think it’s CH’s style.

    I would love to see McAtee back wearing the red. He always gave his all when with us. Big heart and a very skillful footballer.
    Great attitude and always put in a shift for us. I got the impression that he loved it here and it wouldn't surprise me if he was keen to return.
    wiith the right service the lad will score goals. Playing under CH his game will develop. If there's any chance of him returning to Oakwell I'd snap Boltons hands off.

    An out and out striker would be more welcome in my opinion. How about that guy from Notts County, Jatta?

    Honestly can’t see anything in this certainly nothing on any Bolton forums unless I’ve missed it.

    I always got the impression hes a 10, his general play seemed crap but he did get a good amount of goals. I don’t think we need a player like him

    I always thought his general play was his best asset, especially off the ball. Biggest problem for him was as soon as he had a second more time to think, his shots were *****. When he had no time to think, they usually were much better

    They should realise they didn’t sign him from us, surely it should be ‘back to Luton’ ?
