Carling Cup Round 3

Oh my god, we actually won! we actually defied the odds, resisted pressure and beat Bolton. Now why can we only beat Bolton in competitive matches this season! Can we play them every week!

Now it is hard for me to write a match report solely on the views of pundits on Sky Sports News but from the impression they gave, Bolton were unlucky not to get anything from the match. But that is not the point, a Marcus Bent headed goal in the 17th minute was the difference between the two sides, and what a difference that made to all supporters of CAFC.

Not only are we still in the cup in which we have the biggest chance to win, we also have possibly turned a corner and can hopefully put our bad sgtart behind us. It is morale lifting not for just us, but also the players. The smiles on their faces at the final whistle was priceless, but from the sounds of things the fans went to hell and back while watching.

One unfortunate thing is that JT was stretchered off after a collision with a Trotter, lets hope he is ok.

Now lets keep the ball rolling and climb to heights in the Premiership that we are used to!
