    Hi there, I'm from a Bolton Wanderers forum called Burnden Aces. We run a Q&A feature where we get the views of opposition fans ahead of games. If you would like to take part, just answer the questions below:

    Barnsley currently sit in 21st place in the Championship. How has your season been so far?

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he?

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?

    Bit crap. Interspersed by early injuries to new signings. Worrying thatan injury to a single player (Davies) has all but knackered us up recently.

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he?

    Get ready....Long term I think he'll see us right. I like his interviews.

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?

    Very much so. Ball player. Not much pace but has a shot on him. Wish we still had him.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?

    We were a stepping stone for him. Best of luck to him. I reckon he could be a steady Prem player.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?

    Tudgay....

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?

    Way we are playing currently - all of them.

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?

    Sneaky 1-1 draw for us.

    Barnsley currently sit in 21st place in the Championship. How has your season been so far?
    It started well but injuries to key players and our inability to score has seen our form collapse in recent weeks.

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he?
    I really rate him and think that given time and a bit of money he will prove to be a very good manager for us. He’s not everyone’s cup of tea and he gets a bit of criticism on here but as recent polls have shown the majority of fans are still behind him (and Flitcroft).

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?
    I rated him very highly but I was really disappointed with him and his agent for the way they conducted themselves during his last few months at the club before he signed for Norwich. Given the right tactics and formation he is a useful player at this level but I think he moved to the premier league too early.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?
    I was gutted to see him go and in my opinion his loss was a major contributory factor in our loss of form after January. I was even more gutted that we sold him for peanuts but as a Barnsley fan we are sort of used to this. Yes I think he is good enough for the premier league.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?
    If we play like we have been over the last few weeks then none of them. If we pick up some form then Jim O’Brien could be influencial.

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?
    The law of the ex – Butterfield. If he plays.

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?
    I think we’ll get a draw. 2-2.

    Barnsley currently sit in 21st place in the Championship. How has your season been so far? Poor. We've carried on being as bad in the first half of this season as we were in the second half of last season.

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he? If you asked him he's better than Jose, Pep and Sir Alex. If you ask the fans the majority realise he does OK on a tiny budget but we don't need to hear him saying we have no money in nearly every interview he does as we get the hint.

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player? Not really. He had four good months between August and December last season for us and in this crazy time of clubs looking for a quick fix it was enough for a premiership side to want him.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League? He's already proved he can cut it in the premiership and of course we were sad he went. We lost our top scorer, our best player and his sale led to a decline from a top half team to one that stayed up only because Pompey had points deducted.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday? Scott Golbourne. Your right winger will have a torrid time against our left back. He's not called Barnsley's Ashley Cole for nothing.

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal? Jay Jay Okocha is a reight player for you. If not him probably Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeef Andrews.

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon? We haven't scored in 3 games and in our last seven have let one goal in in four of the games so you will win 1-0.

    We are 21st ,says it all


    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he?
    Not as good as he thinks he is

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?
    Again not as good as he thinks he is but potential to be a decent Championship player

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?
    Don't blame him for going to a club with a manager who he knows well, good enough for a mid table Prem side

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?
    John Stones if he plays, one you might buy in the future !!

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?
    All of them,who are all better players,paid better, have nicer cars than any of our players

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?
    Having said all of the above 2-1 to Barnsley

    Barnsley currently sit in 21st place in the Championship. How has your season been so far? The norm

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he? A very intelligent one according to Keef

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player? A player with the ladies on twitter, yet to prove his worth at a top Championship/Lower prem team. He has a nice quiff though.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League? F*cking fuming when BA went, loved the man. He will cut it once he's back from injury.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday? The one on the bench named Mido, should be easy to spot, he's 18 stone.

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal? Jay Jay Okocha

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon? 0-0 with 2 corners each and no shots on target, Keefs possession football.

    Ps where the fecks the bold writing icon? sithi.

    Mixed. Encouraging at times but since October injuries have taken their toll and we're now in a very depressing situation. Chronic lack of goals, but for me, enough positives in early season perfomances to suggest we might survive again.


    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he?
    Divides opinion it would seem. I rate him and think he's doing a good job. He can develop players and construct a good side playing good football. I think he has blind spots however and struggles to change games. Not sure tactics wise he's that well equipped.

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?
    Certainly. Two-footed, skillful, creates chances and can score with either foot. Needs work on fitness and at times can be greedy but he's good. Whether he'll ever cut it in the Premiership I'm not sure, but he's an excellent Championship performer.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?
    Not sad, more frustrated that after we enabled him to finally get his career on track, he and his agent appeared to be desperate to jump ship asap. He's proved useful in the Prem, but long-term I see his contribution at that level as only bit-part.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?
    At present none are in particularly good form. I suppose on Mellis and Cwyka are the two most likely to create, but at present we're in such a dismal run of form, no one stands out as likely to do much of note.

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?
    Not sure on Hill, but I'd be wary of Eagles, Mark Davies and Butterfield, without being an expert on your current line-up.

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?
    2-0 or 2-1 to Bolton.

    Bit rubbish, as expected. Started off better than any thought possible, hit a massive high v Brum and then downhill since.

    Legendary. Lovely coats.

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?
    Would've crawled over hot coals with him on back to get him here. Quality laiker. As good as we've produced.

    Gutted. Top player. Definitely.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?
    You've nowt to worry about, he's still injured. Craig Davies.
    Or Mellis might turn up.

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?
    Anyone.

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?
    We won't score. You will.

    Started off a lot better than I (and most others) expected but, particularly since losing Craig Davies to injury, our form has nosedived...we've lost the last four. Prior to this, form was inconsistent but we were losing games that we should have won. Now we are losing games deservedly.

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he?

    He has nowhere near the same budget as other Championship managers although he does use this as an excuse every week which gets a bit annoying. The players seem to enjoy playing for him and when his system is working he proves himself as an excellent manager. His trouble is there is no plan B, we rarely get anything from a game when we concede the first goal and Keith seems to run out of ideas pretty quickly.

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?

    Yes he's an excellent player, three Barnsley managers were very patient with his development by giving him a lot of game time in which he didn't really do that much, then in 2011 he just clicked and was probably our main threat. If he hadn't picked up the bad injury at the start of 2012 we'd have had a much better end to last season, think he would have been better having another season with us (especially with him recovering from a bad injury) as I doubt he will ever break into the Norwich side. Will probably end up back in the Championship on a permanent deal whether that's with Bolton or someone else. Seems to be one of those who is too good for the Championship, but ever so slightly lacking when it comes to playing in the Premier League.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?

    Like Butterfield, deadly in the Championship but probably not going to raise too many eyebrows in the Premier. Very sad to see him go but we were never going to hold on to a player like that, if we'd have had the money to offer him a contract then I think he would have stayed but I understand his demands were wildy above Barnsley's budget. We should have kept him until the end of the season though, we got 500,000 by selling him in January but we did almost get relegated which would have cost us millions.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?

    No-one is really standing out at the minute. Young John Stones at right-back is one to watch for the future and had an excellent start to the season, has made a few mistakes recently though. Craig Davies might be back in the side and seems to be our only goal threat. Marcus Tudgay has signed on loan today but I'm not sure how his fitness is.

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?

    Not totally up to speed on the Bolton team this year, but I suppose Butterfield will be wanting to make an impression against his former club if he plays and he is more than capable of doing so if he plays anything like he did for us this time last year.

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?

    Surely we can't lose five in a row, and we seem to do better away than at home, the optimist in me says 2-1 to us.

    Lacking in any sort of cutting edge. We pass the ball from side to side but create very little. If the league table was based on possession percentages and pass completion we'd be doing well. Unfortunately for us it's down to winning games. To do that you have to score goals and we haven't got any in us.

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he?
    Statistically he's the worst manager we've had in the history of the club, but despite this he remains popular. One reason for this is that we all know we're skint, so we know he has a very tough job. Another is that he's undoubtedly a character. I think we may be confusing a good bloke for a good football manager. But if he was as good as he thinks he is we'd be topping the league.

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?
    Yes, very much so. He can pass, he can shoot and he can win you games.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?
    Great player that I was very sad to see leave. He'll never play for Man Utd but should carve out a career in the lower half of the Premier League, which meant he looked a God for us.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?
    I would have said that if Craig Davies remains injured then we have no one that will trouble you, but today we've signed Marcus Tudgay so hopefully he can cause you some problems.

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?
    With the way we're playing at the moment, all of them.

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?
    Bolton 2-0 Barnsley

    Barnsley currently sit in 21st place in the Championship. How has your season been so far? Good start, playing attractive football. The last couple of months has seen the form drop off considerably and the results have been poor.

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he? I believe he's a good manager and will become better.

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player? Very much so. Two footed, with an eye for a goal and an incisive pass.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League? Very sad to see him go and, once he overcomes his injury, he will easily cope in the Premier League.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday? If fit, Craig Davies.

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal? Mark & Kevin Davies.

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon? 1-1.

    Started off pretty well - high spot 5-0 thrashing of Birmingham away. A combination of losing our only decent striker and teams figuring out how to play us has resulted in a crash in form and we have lost the last 4 and now cant see where the next win is coming from. All you have to do is make sure you score first and you are guaranteed 3 points

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he?
    Good question and I am not sure - he set off well last season but the loss of Butterfield and Vas Te half way through the season meant our form disintigrated and he hasnt really been able to recapture that. He may turn out to be a good manager but has a lot of work to do to prove it. He did well in the lower leagues as proved by Rochdales improvement under him and then decline since he left. Hill has been no better than our last 3 managers none of who have stood out at championship level

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?
    Yes very disappointed when he was injured half way through last season as he (along with Vas Te) was a player who could turn a game round on his own. Whether he is the same player since injury still needs to be seen

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?
    Gutted and yes

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?
    If he is fit Craig Davies or possibly Tudgay

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?
    If he plays Butterfield, also Kevin Davies
    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?
    1-0 to Bolton

    Hi there, I'm from a Bolton Wanderers forum called Burnden Aces. We run a Q&A feature where we get the views of opposition fans ahead of games. If you would like to take part, just answer the questions below:

    Barnsley currently sit in 21st place in the Championship. How has your season been so far?

    Up and down. More down than up. Played well and lost/drew a couple of games. Enjoyed the Birmingham game.

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he?

    No comment. If you say you like him, you get slagged off. If you want rid of him you get slagged off

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?

    Yes. Wish we still had him.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?

    Yes and yes.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?

    You won't miss Mido, he's that fat. Possibly Jim O'Brien, Craig Davies if he's fit.

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?

    All of them.

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?

    It will probably include "Barnsley 0" depends if you've got your shooting boots on or not. Can't see us scoring.

    Barnsley currently sit in 21st place in the Championship. How has your season been so far?

    Started well, we've gradually got worse.

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he?

    Quality, still young and makes mistakes and his tactics are sometimes baffling, but overall he's a good un. Fetched some cracking players to the club that's for sure.

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?

    Yeah he's a good player, technically very gifted. Think it may take him more than a month to get back to his old self though.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?

    Gutted. Unbelievably talented player, we were definately starting to see the best of him. We still miss his influence even now, goalscorers are hard to come by.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?

    Many of our best player are either injured, or just coming back from injury so aren't really fit yet. Luke Steele in the net is a top keeper though, he's a bit too good for us though unfortunately :(

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?

    Kevin Davies is always a threat, still a good player. Your whole team is full of quality though, on paper you should be top of the league.

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?

    I'll go for an optimistic 1-1, heart ruling head on this one.

    Mainly ***** interspersed with one or two good performances, brum away the highlight. Starting the second season in a row with 4 or 5 first team injured for the second season running cannot be a coincidence for me and must be a result of a daft pre-season training regimen.

    Talks the talk but more often than not fails to walk the walk. Unable to change a game with subs or tactics leads me to think he's not half as good as he thinks he is in his own head. Needs to shut up moaning about budgets as he knew the score when he came and start motivating his players and the fans and believe we can compete instead of bleating constantly.
    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?
    Yes as a sub. too often he didn't perform for 90 mins when picked to start. Can shoot with both feet, something we are sadly lacking, shooting that is!

    yes and yes

    Craig davies & marcus tudgay. However it'll probably be a 1 for 1 swap as pep guadiola rarely plays 2 up top and attacks the opposition...

    Kevin davies

    If we score first a 1-1. If you score first then 3-0 or summat to bolton.

    I would give us 6/10 as we started season quite well and put in strong perfromances despite losing (Leeds & Blackburn); last 5 games we have struggled to create much without Craig Davies in team.

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he?
    Personally I like the guy. He knows he is managing a club with a very low budget (and he takes every opportunity to remind the footballing world of this fact) and he keeps bringing young talent through and ocassionally gets a decent player in from lower leagues.

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?
    Good passer and decent shot. Very weak in tackle and generally does not have the heart to be a great midfielder. Watch him during games, he's forever preening his hair style.
    He's a top Championship player and will not cut-the-mustard at Premier level.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?
    VAz Te was probably Keith Hill's best signing to date, depsite our Board then selling him to West Ham for peanuts at £500-600K. ur goals then dried up after Christmas period proving how much we missed him. I keep an eye on Vaz te at West Ham and he's doing well and seems to have commanded a first team spot up until his recent injury. Good luck to him, he's always got a good word to say about Barnsley.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?
    Just signed Marcus Tudgay and he sounds like he's ready to score goals.........but talk is cheap!

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?
    Marvin Sordell will trouble both our centre halves with his pace, so would hope Keith Hill has a plan here?

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?
    Will go for 1-2 and an away win for REDS !!!!!

    Hope it's a good and fair game.

    Our season has been great so far. Don't let the league table, stats etc get in the way. We're overachieving just by being here, and all on a shoestring budget.
    .
    King Keith is the greatest manager (and human) to ever live.
    .
    Butterfield was truly awful for us. Useless.
    .
    Vaz Te was awful for us.
    .
    So hard to select a star player, but will go with our great leader Scott Wiseman. A man mountain, best player I've ever seen.
    .
    Never heard of your players.

    6-0 Barnsley

    Four good wins otherwise very little to shout about.

    Hanging on my his finger nails to his job. Poor team selections, poor tactical selections poor performances.

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?

    Attacking wise when things are going for him he's developed into a decent player. Defensively poor and if he gets a kick or two head drops.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?

    Yes. Twice.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?

    Kelvin tutu. Comical values. Mido if he gets the service

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?

    Petrov.

    Depends which Keith hill picks the team and tactics. Keef who wants to have a go we'll sneak it 1-0 keef of recent weeks if you don't get 3 your *****.

    Not very good so far apart from the odd good game and of course that Birmingham game.

    Boltonian Keith Hill is currently in charge at Oakwell. How good a manager is he?

    His record speaks for itself, should have signed a centre half pre season.

    Former Barnsley player Jacob Butterfield signed on loan for the Wanderers last week. Do you rate him as a player?

    Good championship player, will never cut it at the top level due to being too slow and lightweight.

    In Barnsley, Ricardo Vaz Te found a club to settle down at for the first time since being released by Bolton in 2010. Were you sad to see him go to West Ham? Do you think he'll be able to cut it in the Premier League?

    Yes for a mere 500k, highway robbery, but on the other hand good business i suppose with him being injured before we took a gamble.

    Which Barnsley player should Wanderers fans be looking out for on Saturday?

    Thomas Cywka and Craig Davies.

    Which Bolton player do you think Keith Hill will be earmarking as a potential threat to the Barnsley goal?

    David Ngog, Chris Eagles and that Asian player.

    And finally, what do you think the final score will be at the Reebok on Saturday afternoon?

    4-0 Bolton
