Brilliant performance and a fully deserved win.

Five points to guarantee promotion because of goal difference but honestly I think it's done now :bluebird:

Brilliant performance today against a good side. You could see the confidence coming back after that wobble and I have no doubt we will be promoted now. Young players playing in this style need to be confident and that’s clearly waned over the last mo th or so but will be back now. Great to see yusef back out there as well

Schumacher making a fool of himself in his post match interview even the Bolton fans are calling him delusional

I think that's a crap attendance. The locals are not getting behind the team, when you think there were 2000 Bolton. I had a mate from Bolton with me today, and he thought it was a sh1t turn out from us.

I read a post on the Bolton forum that I thought might explain the attendances, something I hadn't really thought about much, I'll have a look for it when I have time.

I agree it really was a crap attendance as that means we only had 19,500

And Bolton fans said the same to me

Great win today shit attendance considering the importance of the game. I don't think the current form has helped with a fickle fan base. And 12:30 kids football etc

It was a very good win on many levels :

They didn't want to leave thier penalty box.

We pressed so hard for so long .

We looked fit.

We had desire to keep going .

So many times this year we have had high possession and been done by a goal at the end due to well packed penalty box tactics .

We do lack penalty box presence and physicality.

Yes Lincon won the league , however thier tactics are very Div1 defend at all cost , bully , and were lucky to have the best keeper in the league by a long way ( he'll be off to a bigger club )

As we relied on youth this year and rightly so we were always going to have upds and downs and inconsistent performances.

Interestingly possession was 50/50 yesterday, certainly felt like we dominated the ball though
