Bolton boss Megson proud of his players' spirit

Bolton Wanderers boss Gary Megson is proud of his players after they moved out of the dropzone this weekend.

"I have never once had to criticise or question integrity, honesty, workrate or the way they go about their work," Megson said. "We can play better, pass it better, finish better - all those quality things.

"But we were in the bottom three, in a perilous position, and it is difficult. So, you need the other qualities we have certainly got.

"You look at the finish we have got; away at Tottenham and Chelsea and home to Sunderland.

"We have given ourselves an opportunity now that didn't exist two weeks ago, but that's all it is.

"If we stay on the amount of points we have got now we won't stay up so we have got to keep going.

"But we have got it in our own hands now, where we didn't two weeks ago."
