Bolton (sold to Football Ventures)

Senior players are available and we'll be recruiting what's left of the loans and free transfers i would imagine.

Thanks for your reply. So have the senior players not been playing because they haven't been paid or has the use of kids been overstated?

There are only about three senior players left at the club, most of the others cancelled their contracts and left.

We've been playing a team of kids for most of the season, mainly 17 and 18 year olds.

The average age of the team that drew 0-0 with Coventry was 19, the youngest in the club's history.

Would Bolton be tempted by any of the Bury players currently looking for work?

I thought some of those players were on stupid money? That is the last thing a club that just be brought back from the brink will want.

Bolton don't have to offer them stupid money. Bolton need players and the Bury players need jobs. I'm sure those that can get the silly money elsewhere would have been touting themselves to other clubs over the past few months.

The most interesting thing is that the drummer of Pink Floyd is now an investor.
We don't need no regulation....

Another 5-0 trouncing for BWFC. Looks nailed on for relegation to the 4th Division next May.
It's going to take a hell of a lot of investment from the new owners to turn this lot around.

Keith Hill the new manager. Only 48 hours to get some players. Hopefully will do ok in the longer term.

Are there any players recently released by Bolton who are still without a club? Also, are there any Bury players they would want to offer terms to? - This assumes Bury will not get the EFL to change their minds if a genuine buyer is found.
It might be in bad taste seeking Bury players, but Bolton need players and those players need a club.
