Meanwhile down at the bottom, the news from elsewhere hasn't been brilliant for us. Bolton won on Saturday, albeit against West Ham whilst Bolton themselves provided Sunderland with their first win since on Tuesday.
Between those games, Wigan got their first ever win against a shockingly poor Liverpool, but there was some good news on Sunday at Goodison Park as a very much in form Everton hammered Hull.
Our draw last night has seen us move up one place in the table to 18th.
