I made a rare visit to the Reebok Stadium this weekend to take in Bolton vs Wigan. My old man was in Mexico and the season ticket was available. There haven't been many dull games between Bolton and Wigan and despite a torrid season at the Reebok I looked forward to the game.
It didn't disappoint did it? Late drama, some good saves from the goalkeepers, a should-ve-been sending off and the softest of handbags at times - it was the sort of game you wouldn't mind our position in the league if we were engaged in this type of affair every week.
And we so nearly threw it away.
We were the better team overall for 85 mins and once we conceded the equaliser - out of relative nowhere - there was that horrible feeling of inevitability about Wigan having a chance to win it. I'd have been disappointed like crazy with a loss, especially with how much pride Wigan take in beating us.
