Getting to go the game and celebrate with the wife and daughter after the heartbreak of 2 years ago was priceless. Tutu and Dalby were incredible but RR was man of match for me. His work rate from first minute to last in those conditions was unreal. For the first goal he drives forward out wide to provide the space for Gale to cut in and shoot then carries on into the box to score. For the second his positive drive past his opponent and at the defence is key. So many times he was making bursting runs don't know how he managed it. Masterclass from SS. Brave decisions at the perfect times. Even though I'd have started both in an ideal world was delighted he saved Ibra and Dalby for those latter stages. Loved seeing so many Bolton flags/scarfs on the drive home. What a day. In one- my missus has seen us twice at Wembley and we’ve scored 8! I’m kinda gutted I stayed the extra night and watched Salford… journey home would’ve been immense and reception looked great Quote

The trouble is he got found out when teams worked out how to stop us wasn’t flexible enough and should have gone after Oxford. He stayed too long that his good time are soured by the end. For Evatt and SS read Neal and Rioch. Both predecessors set up the foundations then the successors completed it. Quote

Unfortunately he hit a brick wall when he was here and in pre social media days, it wouldn't have ever have escalated the way it did. Still steadied the ship and laid some groundwork. Quote
