Bolton Wanderers fans react to Ipswich Town defeat

George Hirst opened the scoring on the stroke of half time, beating James Trafford with a ruthless volley following a well-worked counter attack.

The Whites had a big chance to get back on level terms early in the second half after Conor Bradley was brought down in the box, but Dion Charles was denied by Christian Walton from the spot.

Cameron Burgess doubled the visitors’ lead 22 minutes from time with a clinical header from Leif Davis’ corner.

Here is what Bolton supporters had to say about the game on social media

Hit a rough patch at a time with tough fixtures, think we need the injured players back asap, a few are possibly jaded or out of confidence..either way form (especially against top teams) must improve, I’m sure it will but we need the cavalry ! #bwfc https://t.co/nEVGhNskGA

Honestly that performance today has concerned me. Second to everything, no fight whatsoever and we expect to finish top 6. I have to back Evatt to deliver but we are tailing off at the final hurdle! #BWFC

Not good enough today by a country mile. Fair play to #ITFC they were the much better side. #bwfc🇨🇦

We haven’t scored 1 goal at home against the top 6. That is a big concern #bwfc

Taught a footballing lesson today big time.
Completely dominated in the middle of the park

Well beaten by the better side, hate to say it but Evatts magic in January doesn't seem to have worked in 2023

Beaten by a very good Ipswich team..... stick that penalty in and it could have been a whole different scenario....#COYWM

If we’re not careful Wycombe will overtake us. Terrible game. Since we made the papa johns final we’ve been woeful

That was really poor. Worried for Wednesday and Wembley

Gonna end up outside top 6 at this rate, completely flat performances recently

No shame in losing to that team, #itfc best side to come here this season undoubtably, another tough one on Friday, win lose or draw that gap before Wembley could do us massive favours. Be great to get Johnston and MJ back in the squad. #bwfc
