Thanks JB. Good reading.

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

So, IIRC, TW shouts for man of the match include Robbo, Cahill, Knight, Steinsson, Muamba, Taylor, KDavies and Sturridge.

Not a bad team performance then.

Great game, great result. Thankfully Nasri bottled it every time the ball came near him.
Watch Elmander turn his back on Van Persie just before the Dutchman slid it home. He can't remain in centre mid for much longer.
The Flat Back Four were immense and what a difference Taylor makes, defensively, ahead of everyone's favourite Bulgarian.

Just read this in the Bolton News:

"TAMIR Cohen dedicated his last-minute winner to his late father.

The Wanderers substitute crashed home an unstoppable header to complete a superb 2-1 victory against title-chasing Arsenal at the Reebok.

And he threw off his shirt as he celebrated to reveal a t-shirt with a picture of his dad, who died tragically following a motorcycle accident in December."

Notice how he "crashed" home the header.

Of all the words out there to pick from in the English language, journo No.1 plumped for "crashed".
I hate using the word 'literally' but given that Cohen's dad died on the road that is literally unbelievable.

I thought Elmander did bloody well in midfield on Sunday. I also think its ridiculous to blame him for their goal. Taylor was tracking Van Persie all that way, the one touch play just undid us that time. Our back four were also too deep if you really want to look into the problem.

Elmander in midfield is not an ideal situation but Mark Davies is clearly not fully fit and to be honest I think Elmander does as good a job of filling space as MD would do anyways!

[Lofthouse Lower]

What about Elmander losing the ball in midfield leading to the goal through trying some daft trick? Blameless you say?

LCY did that two or three times, SKD lost the ball several times too. Its life.

He's a striker playing in a midfield two against 3 Arsenal players and we won.

I think he did well. Given Arsenal usually batter our midfield I don't think you can complain too much.

[Lord Kangana]

Doesn't count if he's in the team and we won. You said so yourself.

[Raven]

Time for me to resurface, still sore though

Did not see the whole game, liked the end bit when bully boy (big girls blouse I mean) Van Persie was trying to pick an arguement with Taylor and Robbo stepped in to calm things down and Persie disappeared sharpish..nice person!

Hats off to Cohen for commitment and showing emotion.

79: Totally accidental it seemed to me, but Chamakh is booked. And of all the c*nts on the Bolton team to be on the end of that kind of tackle, Robinson is the one you'd choose. The filthy c*nt.

What kind of tackle, an accidental one or one that lifts a player up in the air?

What a prized nice person. I thought it was going to say somert about getting it rescinded as such a ridiculous card to give in the circumstances - all the circumstances around the goal ffs.

Mark Bright could put his message on whatever clothing, put it on a billboard ffs, it still would not be worth the ink written on

[BWFC_Insane]

Unbelieveable that he can use a lad who has lost his dad to complain about footballers using shirts to "market" themselves.

Fook of Bright you useless, clueless prick!

[TANGODANCER]

Think his middle name's "Notso". Nuff said.

[Prufrock]

What a cnut.

[TKIZ!]

Feck off Bright, useless twunt
