He's always been petulant, thrown himself to the floor and mouthed off a lot though. I'd be more worried if he wasn't getting in trouble for dissent as that really would be an indicator his mind is elsewhere.
Personally can't see any material difference in his application or attitude on the pitch at all. He's frustrated at his scoreless spell no doubt & isn't particularly effective at the moment from the right but that's more because the team isn't playing as well than it is anything to do with him – but he had the chances to score against Bristol after all (one of which led to our goal).
Not saying I'd be against a change on the right or that he's on top form, but I don't think it's fair to question his attitude or imply he's got the hump because he didn't get a move.

Like to say a draw but feel we will set up giving to much respect and game will end up similar to Ipswich game 3-0 loss

what Bonner prefers are subtle positional changes and a flexible formation. These things happen throughout a game and show his willingness to adapt even if we don't necessarily always see it. Andrew You mean he shouts at players from the technical area? All managers do that.

They beat us 6-0 in the last game between us, I hope some respect is shown!

"You mean he shouts at players from the technical area? All managers do that"
I'm sure you know that when you manage a game from the technical area it's a little bit more than shouting. Some goon from the main stand shouts, Bonner makes changes and rolls with the game. This idea that he's somehow inflexible is wrong.

I look forward to seeing what Darren Moore says about us. Andrew Big Darren Moore, if you please.

Looking forward to the game, not expecting the result we all want though, just hoping it's not a complete collapse if (when) we go a goal down.

Rats. O'Neil starting then you'd assume & a chance for Simper & Worman to start getting some playing time.
EDIT: Interesting Bonner's first thought when asked about left-back is Brophy. Wonder if we might see him start there on Saturday, Williams back to right-back & Tracey on the left. That would ask a lot from a not particularly defensively capable left side though...

Big challenge but one the players should relish. Our form means there’s more pressure than would usually be the case for a game like this. I trust this lot to handle that. Gone for 1-1 on MPL.
Just as an aside, I’m still firmly in the ‘isn’t it great that we’re playing teams like Sheffield Wednesday in league fixtures’ - and I think that’s fine for fans. In fact, I’d advise it. One day things will be a lot worse than they are now and even those who are presently moaning will long to be back where we are now!

Can you explain a bit more what you mean by 'One day things will be a lot worse than they are now'. I'm curious (you've got me worried!) as you are usually optimistic about things.

I cannot believe Bonner is waving the white flag like this.

I think he's just referring to the constant cycle of football rather than doom-mongering.
