"Are you buying a ticket " YES "Is it for the home end "YES "Do you mind where you sit " NO . The steward gave me the ticket explaining it was given to him to hand out . No charge . THANK YOU VERY MUCH . It was in the lower tier Row Z , back row no one behind , I could stand up for the whole match .
My ex father in law , he is now deceased and I am divorced had a theory .
" Football mimics life and especially business life, hence the interest in the game from the business sector .Its to do with the highs and lows , the changes in fortune ,the reliance on a bit of luck, the need to compete and push the rules to their boundaries, and the need to keep going when one thing after another goes wrong ,and the need to make changes , believing things will soon come right."
He was a passionate Bolton fan , however bad things got , and however bad we played he would find something funny to joke about ( a few whiskeys helped , I have to admit ) and always look forward to the next game.
My sense of humor was tested in the second half of the Bournemouth game . We were definitely second best and 2-2 was a fair result . Two first half goals from Chung -Lee and a blinder from new loan signing Jutkiewicz gave us a commanding 2-0 lead , but a speculative long range effort from Bournemouth saw them pull a goal back before half time . They got a deserved equalizer with 20 minutes remaining of the 2nd half and the 3 points could have been anybodys after that .
Verdict .
Bournemouth were a good side and went on an impressive run after this game which could see them earn a play off spot .
Three days later I was back at the Reebok for a local derby against high flying Burnley .We looked up for it and played well for the first 30 mins after which the game slowed down . The 2nd half showed why Burnley were heading for the premiership , they looked the better side and eventually got the goal to take all 3 points .
Verdict
No complaints
