Matthew Taylor Bolton ptctures6

"Everybody has been concerned about him and he's been so desperate to score," said Megson. "If his personality was a little bit different he might have said, stuff it, and probably would have scored before now. But he is so intense and determined to score that sometimes he is not relaxed. I really do hope that relaxes him a bit because I'm not ready to give up on Johan Elmander yet, nobody at the club is."The Elmander goal was the final, and eventually unnecessary, finale to a Bolton comeback that had contained plenty of spirit after West Ham had threatened to bury them under an early avalanche of chances.
Ultimately, the visitors could claim only one goal, Herita Ilunga's on the hour, after Matt Taylor attempted to clear Alessandro Diamanti's corner and succeeded only in deflecting it to the far post and the West Ham defender.That looked likely to be the winning goal until Taylor made amends in the closing minutes of normal time, picking out an unmarked Kevin Davies from a corner and watching the veteran forward steer home the ball with a seven-yard header.
Honours even, momentum was with the home team and Taylor teed up Davies for a 93rd minute header, scrambled off the line, before forcing Robert Green into a superb save from a 25-yard free-kickSix minutes of extra-time had elapsed when West Ham failed to arrest Tamir Cohen's run into the area, his cross was worked to Fabrice Muamba for a blocked shot which Gary Cahill chased down and sent soaring into the goal from 25 yards.The opening exchanges had been very different to this, West Ham creating four noteworthy chances inside the opening three minutes, Kieron Dyer missing the best of these as Jussi Jaaskelainen won their one-on-one battle, a feat he would later repeat against Zavon Hines. But Bolton showed early glimpses of their potential for recovery with Green needing to be in excellent form to deny a header from Zat Knight and a glancing effort from Ivan Klasnic."It's not a great moment for us just now but we are playing good football and that's encouraging," said Zola. "We just need to improve some things but at least we're producing good football. When you create so many opportunities you need to do better. That was that."

Scotland trounced by Fiji pics320

Not today: Scotland's Colin White can't make any inroads into the Fiji back line
But Fiji, who share the overall series lead with New Zealand after winning in San Diego last time out, proved too strong as Simione Saravanua and Semisi Naevo Saukawa scored in the first half to open up a 12-0 half-time lead.Williams Ryder and substitute Nasoni Roko completed the scoring after the break to book Fiji's place in the Cup quarter-finals as group winners.
Scotland will have to see if their earlier efforts have been enough to secure a place in the Cup quarter-finals for a second successive tournament as one of two of the best finishing second-placed teams.Fiji, we just have to hope the scores we conceded against Sri Lanka will not come back and haunt s," Scotland coach Gemmell told PA Sport.
"It was disappointing to concede the points against Sri Lanka; you never like conceding soft goals. We hope to be in the top eight, that's what we set out to achieve.
"It would be disappointing not to reach the last eight. We were in the top eight in San Diego and we set ourselves the goal of being there again. For many of these players it's the first time here and they've played really well, so it would be a disappointment to miss out on the Cup quarter-finals."Wales, who earlier in the day ran in nine tries during a 61-0 demolition of Chinese Taipei, suffered their second defeat of the tournament as South Africa cruised to a five-try 31-0 victory.Wales will also have to wait and see if the nine tries scored against Chinese Taipei will be enough to allow them to defend the Plate crown they won last year, otherwise Gareth Colin Baber's side will be forced to settle for a place in the Bowl quarter-finals.

Vidur : One of my most memorable moments was actually the National College Convention where I showcased earlier this year and was so nervous right before I got on stage as I was performing before a mainly white audience of 3000 potential college bookers. The ectsatic response that I got was so amazing and overwhelming and also one of the most empowering things I have experienced in my life and in all my time in the US
Body2Soul: Your comment on the CD release of 'Indian Invasion Comedy'. Is it any different?
Vidur : It is different in the sense that it does have some pretty diverse Indian comedians on it and not any one of us sounds like another. Its so easy to become a “Hacky” Indian comic and do very typical material that everyone would talk about. I think most of the comics on this CD have taken some risks and shared some unique perspectives.
Body2Soul: Tell us about being a gay in India and then later in America. Can you imagine an open life like you have now if you were never to be out of India?
Vidur : I love the way the question says “a gay” in India.. Because that is exactly how Indians talk...”He is a GAY”....like gays are an object! Are you “a gay”??? Okay back to the question...being gay in India was horrific for me. I only lived in India until the age of 17 but went through hell. I was a pretty flamboyant teenager and was teased intensely in school, threatened physically and emotionally, and was looked on as a disgrace to my family. I was a complete misfit, and really had no support system in India as a teen and attempted suicide several times. I then went to the UK to study with virtually no self esteem and decided to re-gain my families approval by doing really well in school. So I graduated from The London School of Economics and came to the US to do a Ph.D. In Economics at The University of Chicago. It was in Chicago that I just became so miserable in that Ph.D. Program that I finally started dealing with myself and came out. It was certainly much easier to come out as a foreign student in the US and I was far enough from my family where I didn’t have to feel the guilt on a daily basis. Once I came out and gained some self esteem and went to psychotherapy for years I was more able to hold my own and eventually found myself developing into who I am today. But yes once upon a time I was a miserable and petrified closeted Indian... I was “A Gay”Things are different in India now and I admire the courage of gays and lesbians who have stayon in India and who are out and proud and making a difference to opening people’s minds. If I went back to India now I could be open. Had stayed there and grown up there I really doubt that I would have survived. The issue that I address in my comedy is not only about being gay... Its about being different, whether you are a divorced woman, a homosexual, disabled, an artist. My message is about embracing that diversity and uniqueness because that is your gift to this world.

Sam Hutchinson and Fabio Borini got their full debut in this 3rd round Leage Cup encounter. Hutchinson had an excellent match alongside Ivanovic at centre half. He didn't set a foot wrong the whole match and was instrumental in the build up to Kalou's goal. Borini did well on his full debut paired with Kalou up front. He had a couple shots saved by QPR's keeper and held up the ball well on the break. Chelseafc.com have an interview with Sam hereMiroslav Stoch returned to his customary spot at the top left of a 4-3-3 after getting a rest in midweek cup action. He was involved in the attacking play as usual, providing the cross that lead to Ruiz's opening goal for FC Twente. He later hit the corss bar after neatly dribelling past two defenders on the break. The only negative issue would be his defensive play. On VVV's loan goal he didn't give his team mate Douglas an outlet and he could have come back a little deeper on another occasion to help out. FC Twente went on to win 2-1 staying level on points with table toppers PSV.
Michael Mancienne had an up and down day, getting beat by both Bent and Jones, the former leading to Sunderland's third but also putting in a number of blocks and clearances and leading a couple of Wolves moves forward. He's also credited with an own goal for Sunderland's 5th which sums up the sort of day he and his teammates had. The final score of 5-2 is rather flattering to Sunderland as Wolves had leveled twice and at had looked the stronger team for much of the game.

But before he arrived it was Blaise N’Kufo. He became all time leading scorer and the club and even got a statue. Also Wout Brama is very popular because he is educated by the youth academy Twente.GOAL.COM PREDICTIONTwente have a very tough group with Inter, Werder Bremen and Tottenham Hotspur. Three clubs that are much better as Twente. Last season Werder Bremen were already too good for Twente in the Europa League. Inter is the favourite in the group and Werder and Tottenham will fight for the second spot. FC Twente will fail to progress to the second round.Michel Preud’homme is the new trainer for Twente. In his first few matches with the club he didn’t impress that much, but they have 8 points from of 4 matches. They play with 4 defenders (Rosales, Wisgerhof, Douglas and Tiendalli), two defensive midfielders (Theo Janssen and Wout Brama), Nacer Chadli and Bryan Ruiz on the wings and Marc Janko and Luuk de Jong in the front.SUCCESSESTwo seasons before Twente won the Eredivisie, they finished as runners-up in both the league and the KNVB Beker.STADIUMFC Twente plays at the Grolsch Veste.

But whereas I expected the see an amazing display of through passing from the midfield for Eduardo to run onto, it didn’t happen. Ramsey had a bugger of a game for the most part, and Wilshere and Merida didn’t quite get it right until well into the second half. Strangely the star of the show was Francis Coquelin, the defensive midfielder who played full back. He was quite exceptional - even more ... Read Full StoryBromwich Albion - Carling Cup
