Question of the Week

Is football a business or a sport?




 

20/11 Bolton 1st Half

Bolton Wanderers 2 Grimsby Town 0
20 Nov 1999, Nationwide League Division 1

For what it's worth heres my view of the game.

Towns defence, apart from the 2 costly errors did ok. The midfield was non-existent (apart from Stacey) The forwards where they same as usual - useless! Both set of supporters were quiet, and it was cold!! I can only really remember one moment of excitement for Town, which was when Lester was pulled down around the edge of the box (though to be honest I think outside). The resulting freekick went far enough wide to not even merit an oooh from the Town fans.

It has to be said that the Scandinavian eleven (sorry Bolton) weren't very much better & certainly didn't look to me to be a potential promotion candidate.
