Fantastic end to the half but I'm worried about Bolton's ability to take us by surprise in the 2nd - just look at what they got up to at their outward bounds training in the Lakes this week :

"Wordsworth might have wandered lonely as a cloud, but Wanderers chose a canoe race across Windermere and other activities including paintballing and a grand prix using motorised toilets."

LT how are you? Good to hear from you

-- Anonymous, October 13, 2001

Deserve to be in the lead. Bellamy has had two very good chances and we should realistically have been at least 2 up. Holdsworth is causing the defence all sorts of problems but they are coping quite well. As I said before about Robert - he plays some good passes but definitely loses focus too much. A couple of times there were 50-50 balls that he backed away from. He literally just stopped running. He needs to learn how to tackle. Hughes is doing OK but he isn't a right back. Will be disappointed if we don't get three points from this game

-- Anonymous, October 13, 2001

Ciara - Doh! I just knew we should have signed that Czech midfielder over the summer, Ivan Dalek. He would've been the perfect counterfoil when Sam 'dodgy tash' Allardyce plays his joker with the motorised toilet substitution ...

-- Anonymous, October 13, 2001

Nige - I'm good mate. How's the Gold/sunshine Coast working out (I always forget which) ?

Kegsy - cheers for the report. Interesting about Hughes and about Bellamy's wastefulness. Thinking about what Pete said earlier in the thread, sadly it's rarely the case that someone becomes a better goalscorer with age. He'll undoubtedly become a better player but if he keeps missing the barn door at the age of 21 he's likely still to be doing it when he's 25

-- Anonymous, October 13, 2001

If he had Shearers finishing - he would be as good as Owen. He's lightning quick and not at all greedy - he has good vision and will pass to team mates if they are better placed. I think that if we had another fast forward or a fit Dyer he would probably score 10 goals a season but have 20 assists.
