Bolton boss happy to be Mr Unpopular

Providing Bolton continue to pull away from the bottom of the League, Wanderers boss Garry Megson has no problems in not being the fans favourite. Bolton won the local derby with Manchester City 2-0 on Sunday.

Megson said: "The fans react to what they see but they're not going to boo.

"They've seen a team really having a go and to be fair, they see that all the time.

"As I've said before, if they're going to abuse anybody, it's better if I get it.

"They need to support the team and the support in the second half, when we really had that momentum, was as good as you're going to hear.

"One of the senior players said that we needed something to go in off somebody's backside - but you can't rely on that.

"We've not been lucky - we've played really well and we certainly deserved the win."
