1. Don't expect to win, without putting in any effort. There are plenty of new faces in both squads and will take time to adjust. Get at them from the off, and let them know you are there with a few fair but crunching tackles.They are a young squad still (as are we) but from other results, teams that "have at 'em" from the get go, seem to do better.
2. STOP PI$$ING ABOUT AT THE BACK! Our defence, whilst experienced tend to get a bit panicky when a forward rushes at them, if in doubt hoof it. Give Lewis a run out as a reward for his hard work, Bolton's front line, isn't as potent as other teams, so it is an ideal game for him to cut his cloth.
3. Don't panic! If it is still 0-0 after 60 minutes, then it is up to us fans to gee up the team and get them firing. There must be no complacency here, As mentioned before, Bolton are not the walkover they were, and our players need the right mind set for the WHOLE game, not just the 2nd half!
