Match Report 100130 vs Bolton Wanderers: Confidence growing

2-0 and although the win is not that beautiful, yet confidence is growing. We did not play very well in 1H and was lucky to go one up thanks to another great Kuyt effort. We played better in 2H, and cruised to a two nil victory. It is another victory and we are now 4W2D in our last 6 league games, and it is very important to enter the crucial February in fine form.
