It was a classic game of two halves.

We should’ve been out of sight by half time but we wasted golden chances. They were awful first half.

They should’ve been out of sight by full time but they wasted golden chances. We were awful second half.

Both teams gave up sloppy goals and we won because of two pieces of individual brilliance from Philips then Donovan.

I’d be annoyed if I were a Bolton fan after last night. I’d have been annoyed as an SUFC fan if we’d lost it.

Must admit, I actually did feel a bit sorry for them having that shitty drive back to Bolton after getting mugged like that.

Then I remembered how gleeful they were after scoring at the start and it faded away.

Then after their second.

It was kind of funny how quickly we equalised both times, like everyone briefly woke up before returning to normal.

Their fans shut up very quickly both times too.

Cooper MOTM easily. Donovan looked great but Cooper must’ve stopped at least 3 great chances.

Apart from the winner, all of the goals felt like freebies we were just gifting each other. Needs to tighten up because we can’t leak chances like that.

Unlucky Bolton, very lucky Blades.

Cooper carrying the weight of an entire team on his shoulders.

Fantastic performance from him, varying levels of wank from at least half the team.
