Innumerous attempts at the goal, umpteen corners, two close goals disallowed for offside; it almost seemed like it was not going to be Bolton's day until Kevin Davies slotted home from close range from a Matt Taylor corner. Playing at home for the second last time in the season, Bolton desperately needed the win to keep any hopes of staving off relegation alive.....
What this win has given them now is a chance to leapfrog Birmingham to the 17th spot, provided results go their way on the next weekend! Alongside this result, it was Fulhams win from the 19th spot and Birminghams draw on the 17th that left the relegation battle wide open. The teams involved start right from the 16th placed Reading (32), Birmingham (31), Bolton (29), Fulham (27), the list concluding with the already relegated Derby.
The real concern for Bolton though is the apparent dearth of goal scorers, with the matchwinner of yesterdays game, Davies being sidelined for the coming two games owing to his 10th yellow of the season. Diouf looks scrappy, Nolan not having played enough due to his injury, its gonna be the young striker Raziak and the old warhorses Campo and McCann to take the onus for goalscoring!!
Meanwhile, the action hots up at the other end of the season tonight as Chelsea take on Wigan and Manchester United host a spirited and rebellious Arsenal team coming on the back of their Champions league exit at the hands of Liverpool.
