Fergie: title decided late

Sir Alex Ferguson believes that the title will go down to the wire. Sir Alex believes that Man Utd are a step closer to success after beating Bolton, however.

"The important thing was that we had the opportunity and the incentive to go three points clear of Arsenal, our nearest pursuers," Ferguson said.

"It's nip and tuck now. I think it's going to go to the wire. Chelsea will be key because they have got us and Arsenal at home.

"It's a lead, it's not a significant lead but it's a lead nonetheless.

"With eight games to go the team who plays with the most consistency now will win it."
