Kevin Davies - We Need More Cliches
Kevin Davies has been making all the right noises ahead of the Premier League clash with Blackburn.
'We have to go home, look at ourselves in the mirror, then come in and roll our sleeves up,` he told BWFC`s official site, referring to Saturday's mauling at Aston Villa. One suspects that Zat Knight will struggle with these tasks, particularly the one that involves him finding his own house.
They`re fine words from the Bolton captain, but all too often in the past, bravado that comes via the Reebok PR machine hasn`t been matched by improved performances.
Davies could have added that he needs to grab the bull by the horns, put his nose to the grindstone, and his best foot forward. Well, you started with the clichés Kev.
Speaking of Clichys, the one who plays for Arsenal can come out of hiding now. The rearranged game with Arsenal scheduled for December 2nd has been postponed because the Gunners are still involved in the Carling Cup. It might be an idea for Bolton to just surrender the three points rather than find a new date. It`ll be easier on the goal difference and cost less in fuel that way.

Well the manager needs to take a long hard look at him-self.
He will be looking for a reaction from the players???????????
Oh god someone will be stupid enough to suggest Blackburn will be getting the backlash.... more likely to be getting the eyelash.

According to Megson, the man admired by 'people who know football', Cahill will bounce back with a cap against Brazil. Oh yes, Capello just loves defenders who have conceded 13 in 3 games, that's how he's got where he is. The great mystery is, what did Megson do?
