The Saturday Dugout Discussion opens to see a hugely significant relegation battle between Bolton Wanderers and Queens Park Rangers. As two of the bottom five clubs, where three appear certainly doomed, three points in this lunchtime kick-off will be fiercely contested for. The team news for the game is in, are the line-ups are as follows…

Bolton XI: Bogdan, Steinsson, Wheater, Ream, Ricketts, Reo-Coker, Mark Davies, Pratley, Miyaichi, Ngog, Petrov.

QPR XI: Kenny, Onuoha, Ferdinand, Hill, Traore, Barton, Diakite, Derry, Wright-Phillips, Cisse, Zamora.

The home side bring in Martin Petrov in a more attacking line-up, with Zak Knight making way. There’s another start for the impressive on-loan Ryo Miyachi.

As for the visitors, they welcome back Djibril Cisse and Samba Diakite from suspension and name them in their starting eleven. Cisse partners Bobby Zamora upfront.

After that we’ve another five Premier League games to enjoy, ending up at Goodison Park where Everton begin their double against Harry’s Spurs.

The Dugout Discussion chatroom will remain open throughout the day, and can be accessed right here.

There are a couple of versions... the official game at MLSsoccer.com (which has a similar interface to the Premier League game) and an ESPN game. http://www.mlsfantasymanager.com is a pretty good resource for getting started.

        Wouldn't say found out. Just one of those horrible seasons. He had them looking good when Lee and Sturridge were in the team and Wilshere before that. It's not an easy job to do with limited resources and relying on quality loan signings which sometimes you get lucky with and other times you are limited to what is available.

        Plus they had a solid start to the season with their fixtures. Those heavy defeats would knock anyone's confidence.

      Bobby Z and Djibril at least give QPR fans hope for the rest of the season. They'll need to score goals that is a certainty, I don't fancy them much at the other end of the pitch (says a man who just sold Onuoha :))
