Post by: alfie on October 28, 2017, 05:38:09 PM
Bolton like Preston tried to waste time and because of that they chucked a win away.

I think their keeper was given a yellow card for time wasting and the ref. added on 5 minutes at the end of the game so they were punished for the offence. Can't see what else could have been done about it.

Had we scored a goal or two in the 1st half they may not have been so inclined to waste time.

There's scores of examples of teams who try to time waste, consequently lose their team shape, and pay the penalty by conceding late/ in the time added on for such time wasting. We've been guilty of course, this and previous seasons, but also benefited from other side's guilt. A class side plays out time by keeping the ball and keeping a disciplined shape.
