Or....How The Press Saw Bolton's Performance On Saturday. (Clue....it doesn't end well), plus the average ratings from the papers.
"The clearly rejuvenated Bent looked every inch an international-class striker as he and Jones ripped Bolton's defence to shreds in a one-sided first half." The Currant
"the Wearsiders were hanging on towards the end as Gary Megson’s battling Bolton launched a fierce second-half fight-back" The Mirror
"While Sunderland were at it from the first bell, Bolton started sluggishly." The Nazi
We would tell you what The Times thought but apparently only Sunderland were on the pitch.
"Sunderland were aided mightily by an abject Bolton performance that extinguished any pre-season optimism." The Observer
"Jaaskelainen's excellence provided a rare bright spot for Megson but there were precious few other crumbs of comfort." The Screws
"a hugely disappointing Bolton display" The former BEN
Kind of makes bad reading no? And the averages don't get any better.
Jaaskelainen 6.83
Ricketts 4.91
Cahill 6.16
Knight 5.03
Stefandennis 5.27
The Badger 4.69
Davis 5.43
Muamba 5.21
Taylor 5.20
Elmander 4.84
Super Kev 5.82
Lee 5.03
Ward 4.50
So, Bolton's man of the match was Jussi (what...you're suprised), and the worst performer was The Badger, although he did have the excuse of being played out of position. Or should that be he had the excuse of being played.
