Bolton confirm Holden is out for six months after the brutal tackle by Jonny Evans. Harsh for them, Holden has been great this season and is a player it's hard to not like.

Holden has the right attitude as well - Just had a sincere phone call from Jonny Evans wishing me the best in my recovery, def wasn't intentional, just unfortunate part of the game

In this case, the ref got it right by sending Evans off. Evans and the rest of the United players got it right by not surrounding the ref, and the injured player and mocking him. Finally the fans got it right by cheering for Holden instead of booing and jeering him while he was taken off. Too bad the same couldn't be said about the Nani/Liverpool incident and others like it.
