Trent Alexander-Arnold is getting taken to the cleaners by... Diogo Dalot

Well, that was unexpected. The kind of result that could/should start a good run. However... #bwfc

'The darts' is the best PR job that's ever been done. Fair play

I feel really sorry for Morley having to come back #bwfc

I see Santos has got even better at waving his arms around and blaming other people for his mistakes #bwfc

Didn't think I would ever say that Sports Personality of the Year went to Freddies

He does remember the Stockport match too, right? Sure that was in the last two or three months...
"I understand that when you have results like this against your local rivals, and it's been a theme, all of our good work over the last two or three months is going to be meaningless." Ian Evatt accepts Bolton need to find a solution in 'big' games if they are to succeed. #BWFC

Think it's safe to say that defeat was IanEvattable #bwfc

Has Jim Ratcliffe got anything right yet at United? He's not quite the Manc Ken Anderson, but he's on his way...

Morgan Gibbs-White is better than any of United's midfielders

Bring back man-to-man marking and clearing your lines when required

Mark Fish would have scored 10 goals a season in this Premier League. And he wasn't a particularly great header of the ball

Commentator on Newcastle v Liverpool when ball goes over the bar 'that's two points for Saracens'. I can assure you, that would never happen

What's stopping Arsenal's opponents man-for-man marking at corners? Arsenal's entire routine seems to be based on the fact the opposition is zonal marking. So, get your best headers on their best headers. Surely worth a go?

Maybe it's just the choice of song Amorim doesn't like - maybe he wants them to sing Ruben Ruben Ruben Ruben to the tune of Ruby by the Kaiser Chiefs...

Would much rather be talking about papering over the cracks - as we are - than a dispiriting defeat. Evatt's going nowhere so might as well get used to it #bwfc

Ian Evatt is playing with inverted wing-backs apparently (that's just players on the wrong wing, to you and me). Tactical fuckwittery. I blame @SunDeanScoggins

Says a lot that Evatt's system is still the one he came up with to get the best out of Conor Bradley (who left 18 months ago). Not having anyone who can beat a man doesn't help either. He looks out of ideas but probably realises this is his ceiling as a manager #bwfc

The only way to get the manager sacked is to sing 'sack the board'. Doesn't matter whether you actually want the board sacked or not. The only way they'll give Evatt the boot is if they think fans have turned on them
