I think the performances of Glen Whelan, Elmo and Taylor have been a real feature of this run. All written off by many of us to some extent over the last few seasons (for me I've never had time for Taylor in particular) yet all consistently putting in stand out performances.It just goes to show it's so easy to write off players who are out of form, low on confidence or not being used correctly. Massive credit to them for turning things round and to Smith for finding a way to get the best out of them. Hopefully some of us will think twice before the 'should never wear the shirt again' comments in future!
The first goal for us was always going to kill the game off and although we've played better, it was very very comfortable. It really is a good feeling being on this run of wins.What were Bolton were playing at only opening two turnstiles for the lower block? We were meant to go through the Block H turnstile but they'd closed it. The queue to get in the other ones was enormous.

I wish El Ghazi and his amazing flip-flap skill to beat the full back was on video. Would love to see it again.
