Bolton 1-0 Coventry City - Match Report Post #33

I sit next to the press box in the WSU,and I hear him before I see him. Love him though.

Anyway,who ever heard of a scouser that made sense.

 Any idea when?

Parkinson's programme notes said a couple of weeks if I remember right.

no one at half time was unhappy, the problem was, we took our foot off the gas and they raised the bar, previous seasons we would have caved, we didn't yet another clean sheet. how the hell can you be unhappy with a team who wins 7 out of 8?

Unhappy is not the correct word ?   maybe "concerned" ????  they had 18 shots, a better team would have put us away. They shipped 4 their prior game.
We need too get back to 90 mins of football not 45 mins.
Overall though things are much better than last season obviously....so onwards to Northampton for hopefully 90 mins of footy and three points.

Stats don't tell the whole story, I thought the first half was some of the best football we have played for a number of years, yes the second half was poor but we hit the woodwork twice and clough missed a sitter in the first half.

a lot of their 18 shots where from distance and I can only remember Alnwick making a couple of stops.

One thing we are doing well is keeping clean sheets and defending as a team, even Madine was tracking back and filling in for Ameobi on the right side of midfield when he was caught forward.

There's lots of improvement with each game so I am optimistic that the consistency will come, not concerned.

I totally agree with your comments about Tony Kelly.

Every game he is involved  with he winds me up with his moronic comments. Not to mention his whinning scouse accent.

If we were 3-0 down and 15 minutes to go, he'd still be saying if we can just get the ball forward we can still get something from this game.
