gooner.girl Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 (as you can imagine, Mike seems to have bags of patience - and a long-suffering look!!) Charming, probably true... But Humph! (actually, Helen's eyes ARE bright red - but I have removed it so as "Ooops, word censored!"ody gets nightmares...) Thanks Phil, for yet another flattering comment... OK! sorry!! (I just couldn't resist - and I thought it might be a bit too big a shock to the system if I only wrote nice things about you!) here's the truth.. Helen is (believe it or not) a real sweetie.. *Helen picks herself up off the floor from where she has fainted in shock... When did you only write nice things about me Phil?! Must have blinked and missed that! Not sure about the 'believe it or not' line but i guess thats as good as its going to get... Just for the record, as it were, Phil is the nicest Bolton fan i have ever met (not that i know many (any?) others!) And he didn't really wee on Kannies garden! So come on then, i'm sure everyone wants to hear your take on yesterdays match....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gooner.girl Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Yes, yes Phil whatever you say.... (humour the old man Martin...) Most were scored by ex "Ooops, word censored!"nal players anyway - where do you think Anelka learnt his silky skills Phil? Anyhow i quote from an "Ooops, word censored!"nal match report about Bolton... We’ve only won two of our past ten outings with Bolton and we made minimal progress today. Their slate grey kit was as tedious as their tactics. Never run for a throw, always walk as slowly as possible to the ball and whoever is furthest away takes it. Don’t make a substitution until the player being subbed is in the far corner of the pitch, then he should run on the spot for twenty minutes on his long way off. Always jump into players when heading the ball, or even when you’re not. Pull shirts at every opportunity, always grab hold and hang onto the ball if your opposite number wins a free kick. If Dean is the ref throw it away. Never retreat the required distance until requested to do so by the ref and then only retreat half the distance. Always take a long throw if in range of the penalty area and always stand on the toes of the keeper. Make sure you’re always in the ref’s face and take a tumble every time you can. If you do go down always clutch some part of your anatomy for 30 seconds minimum before getting up and sprinting away. Holding onto players at corners is also mandatory. Says it all really.........

H xx Mmm.. says it all - but not about the right team!! The only Bolton player who went down yesterday for any significant amount of time was Kevein Davies - and he went straight off onto the side to be treated - we played with 10 men for 8 minutes.. the only player to go down clutching part of his anatomy and roll around for ages was Almunia... as for "going down" - hang your head in shame!! Aliaiadiadiaidiadiadaire was BOOKED for diving - and (clearly!! - you must have seen the replays) - Adbayour should have been booked for diving in the penalty area too.. As I recall - it was Flamini was was warned by Mike Dean for backchat - getting in the ref's face - not a Bolton player.. (I suspect this report was written before the game was played by someone who didn't actually go...) I prefer the headline in the Times Newspaper today: "Direct approach thwarts Bolton" it's supposed to be us who play "direct" football isn't it?? (It's my day off!!) Phil here's another snip from an "Ooops, word censored!"nal fan... (suitable asterisked) "Awful match and **** performance, can`t say anything else right now. This match proved once again that we simply can`t vary when we are attacking and putting other teams under pressure at times. Too many players tried to pass the ball into Bolton`s penalty area today, and that suited Bolton perfectly as we are weak physically up front and useless in the air. And, when we broke through on fast breaks, the movement upfront was awful to be honest. Seems like we still do not know how to play this **** Bolton team, and that is disgusting. Thought we roughed them up a bit actually in the 1st half, but then we went to our usual moaning in the 2nd half when Bolton started to play their **** physical football as usual.

gooner.girl Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Rubbish report Phil! Can't believe you spent all day writing that - its not even accurate! Although, i am briefly mentioned - fame at last!! (though i think you could have done more with it, ''can't wait to meet up with stunningly beautiful, intelligent, charming "Ooops, word censored!"nal fan and her lovely husband'' rather then ''2 gooners'' - much more descriptive - if not true ) Why don't i write one for you to post on the Bolton forum that tells the truth about the game... You see you just write a completely biased view - i'd never do that I haven't seen the replays yet, thats for later tonight... But Aliadiere did not dive! To be fair, a draw was the right result and we were both as rubbish and dirty as each other... I'm going to have a very romantic valentines day - Not! Plonked in front of the telly - Mike will be ''want to go out love?'' and i'll be ''S*d off i'm watching the footy... '' And if we lose........

Nah... Nor would Mike unfortunately. He's pronounced the Bolton match as the most rubbish game he's seen so far at the new stadium...

Offer me tickets to watch "Ooops, word censored!"nal and i'm off like a shot with whichever bloke comes along! Fickle? Moi?! The way to my heart is easy to find...

Very biased, very good, looking forward to more match reports in the future? thankyou Martin!! (Helen secretly agrees with every word) I can only do match reports on London games (the next one will probably be the Watford game) - because those are the only games I can get to easily. So I do more Match Previews than Match Reports. that's the reason that I do the TW-Spy feature on the Trotters page of the Forum... a friend of mine, Gary, also writes on there - he's the deputy editor of 4-4-2 - but on the TW site he writes under a pen-name - "Ooops, word censored!"ody there knows who he is, else he'd end up being asked to do far more than he has time for...
