Marching quietly on

So, the Bolton Boxing Day Bollocksfest has been followed up with two very welcome victories over decent opposition. Most remarkably, in the case of Liverpool last night, for once we were not overly obliging in handing a heroically out-of-form side a desperately-needed win, instead showing no mercy and deservedly sending them packing with no points and an imminent suspension for Salif Diao. New Year's resolution: continue to defend Fortress St James' with the same dogged resolve, while starting to win games away from home. At the moment, a Champions' League place is ours for the taking.
