As I sit comfortably and gaze at the laptop screen showing the EPL Tables for the '08 season, I realise that my team, a certain 'Bolton Wanderers Football Club' is looking straight down the barrel and would be playing in what maybe its last six premiership games for a long long time to come.
Having completed my two-year stint with the Goa Inst of Mgmt and looking forward to a two month long break I would have been pleased to be personally present at Bolton to cheer the teams cause for a fight to stay up. Sadly enough, my father seems to be in no mood to sponsor my sojourn and so the 'pen' seems to be the only weapon I have to back my team. I wish to take this opportunity to start blogging, and in the process, take you through the last six EPL games which would ultimately decide Bolton's fate. It would also be interesting watching if the stars of Man United falter and in the process hand the title to a Chelsea or an Arsenal!!
The pessimism amidst the fans after the last game against Arsenal is understandable as the ease with which Bolton blew a 2-0 lead at half-time to register a 2-3 loss at full time was typical of a side facing the 'drop'. The fans still haven't lost hope and would be praying that the team rises up to the occasion in the next few games and goes to safety on the table. What we badly need at this moment are talismanic performances from the senior pros like Nolan, Campo, Diouf and the others......
Taking a look at the task ahead, our opponents are:-
1. Aston Villa (Away) 5th April
2. West Ham (Home) 12th April
3. Middles borough (Away) 19th April
4. Tottenham (Away) 26th April
5. Sunderland (Home) 3rd May
6. Chelsea (Away) 11th May
An analysis of the opponents, the magnitude of each game and the potential rivals in the relegation battle soon to come........
