I'm sure he would ? He's got to look at two thirds of this season and last, take part of the blame and learn from it.
I'm confident he will.

Best thing about today was the appearance of Threlkeld and then Kellett and Youngs coming on. The former got the full 90 minutes and DF thought he looked 'very comfortable throughout'. With him and White and maybe Riley getting fit we might not need to sign a Hutton or a McNaughton. Promising in these cashless times.

I thought SW players didn't want to be there for the first half hour - they were the worst team I have seen this season. We scored three quick goals, poser Beckford tried to see how many times he could be flagged offside in half an hour and then Wednesday started to play and we suddenly were unable to score any more, squandering many chances but never looking like scoring and neither did they. I thought Bogdan was back to square one again with a nervy fumble which left his hands and hit the post then a Jussi kick straight out of play and some failures to roll out quickly which received admonishment from Wheater and Spearing but he recovered to make some great saves but none as good as Kirkland's to deny Danns great shot in the second half to make up for yet another one on one certain goal to be messed up - what do they do in training?
Their goal was a repeat of so many we have seen all season long. One player who waits, unmarked outside the box as the corner is taken, luckily the ball comes to him and he blasts it - goalkeeper "rooted to the spot" - goal. How thick is DF not to have this player covered?
The Juke, is very popular with the travelling fans but not with me now I'm afraid. He was very poor today and stifled easily. If we are told he is carrying an injury I would not be surprised. He has been too easily cancelled out in the last few games since Mason left.
Trotter's goal was brilliant and that was after a brillint run from our half too.
Great to see Kellet come on and get the chant " One of our own, he's one of our own, Andy Kellet, he's one of our own". Spearing pushed him to the front of the team as they came towards us after the final whistle and all of us cheered and chanted him - what a thrill for the lad in his first game. Just brilliant. Threlkeld was fine too for 90 mins. Why wasn't Youngs brought on earler? We had nothing to lose by bring on all of the youngsters much earlier. Our other chant at three up was funny. "We're taking the piss, we're taking the piss. We're Bolton Wanderers, we're taking the piss!"
Birmingham will be fighting for their lives next Saturday and hopefully it will be a good game as our players can never be accused of not giving their all. It is just so frustrating that the skill levels are so low. A friend went to the England under 18's game in Bury recently and said that their skill level was far higher than any in our team.

A good result. Followed the game on Twitter. V exciting online for first twenty. Hope Trotter won a few more round.. Great that Threlkeld acquitted himself well . Should Dougie begin next year with a clean slate?
