Megson - Bolton still in the mix

Gary Megson does not expect 37 points to be enough to keep Bolton Wanderers in the Premier League. The Trotters are currently six points outside of the relegation zone with five games left to play, but Megson is not taking safety for granted.Reflecting on the late run of form which kept Bolton in the top flight last season, Megson is aware that his team could still be overtaken."We're in the mix and my mate down at Stoke, Tony (Pulis), will think he's in the mix as well and they've got a couple more points than us, so you never know," said Megson on Sky Sports News.Doubts"At the end of the season we might turn round and say 37 was more than enough, but I've got doubts about that."If we look back at this football club 12 months ago we had just lost 4-0 away to Aston Villa and everybody had us relegated and we were way adrift."We won three and drew two of the last five games, and we had three away from home as well, so it can be done."We've got to try and make sure that, if somebody does come up with that kind of run, we're on the same run as well."Bolton welcome Aston Villa to the Reebok Stadium on Saturday and Megson is expecting a tough test, despite the visitors' run of 11 games without a win.He added: "I don't think there's a good or bad time (to play Villa). They've got terrific players and a really strong squad."The Premier League being the way it is, it's very difficult and the fact that Villa aren't on the best run they've had so far this season, I don't think it makes a great deal of difference to us."They've still got some fantastic players in there, they strengthened in the January window to what was already a strong squad, so it will be a really difficult game for us."
