Hull City 0 Bloody Bolton 1

It’s taken this long to write up the report for this match, because it’s taken me so long to get used to the result.

On the one hand, I’m remembering my view at the start of the season that one bloody win in the whole bloody season would have been great.  Buuuuut, I’ve completely got swept up with the glories of the last few months and can’t help but feel disappointed.

This is Bloody Bolton after all!

Positives:

Bloody Bolton (and I will continue to call them that – I don’t give a toss that they are Phil Brown’s old club) were always going to be a difficult side for us.  They play tight (and not a little dirty) and would have seen Hull as a real target – therefore would have done their homework (unlike a certain M Wenger).

It was only 1-0 and there were lots of chances to equalise / go ahead.

Without Jussi (Phil’s mate just to rub it in), 2 great goals at least would have gone in for Hull.

Pete says both teams looked pretty good.

Alan Shearer thinks we’re safe (is this a positive?)

If Fagan had been fit, this game would have really suited him.

Negatives:

If Gary “Gollum” Megson can put together a strategy to beat us, anyone can, even Tony Adams.

What happens at home?  Is it the pressure?  Worrying sign that a number of home games have seen feeble performances (relatively).

The quality is being spread wafer thin

Well – onwards and upwards I guess.  Who knows….
