Bolton's Chairman should be there today. Remember this ?

“I had a strange feeling about the Sheffield United game all last week, particularly when they asked us to return half of our allocated tickets.

“We made our disappointment known to them in no uncertain way, but they had no intention of changing their minds.

“Obviously, it wasn’t one of our better performances and whilst I don’t like making excuses, I think that up until the penalty - which was a quite clearly a dive - we were still in the game,” Anderson added.

“Likewise, I am not sure how John Fleck did not receive his marching orders when he poleaxed Tom Thorpe which effectively ended his game a short time after.

“In regards their first goal, it ultimately came from us giving the ball away and a consequent rare slip by Mark Beevers and whilst I think it was a well taken chance by Billy Sharp, how many times have we seen balls bounce out when they hit the post?

“Although we lost out to Sheffield United, despite fielding an under strength team due to illness, suspensions and injuries, it’s worth reminding ourselves that we had beaten them twice already this season, so in terms of the league points gained against one another honours are even.

It’s like someone has dared him to try and fit as many excuses into a single statement as possible.
 
A very good example of why chairmen shouldn’t talk to the media.

They don’t need to hold back and have no basis for claiming expertise in football.

A bit like I’m glad I wasn’t in front of a camera in Norwich last week when I said “I just think we’re scoring again in this game....” 3, 2, 1....

Duffy with the cross, and Billy Sharp nods the Blades level!
 
Was this the same article in which he said something like

"there'll be ups and downs for both sides before the end of the season"

and then we went unbeaten for the rest of the season. :D:D:D
