This took a fair bit longer than I first thought to be concluded , but I always said on here that it would happen without the need for Administration. There has been a huge amount of work put in by all parties to make it happen.
A huge relief for everyone involved at the club , especially of course for its loyal supporters.

Yes great news. Bolton is up there with the best in terms of football history and supporters.

I'd rather have 10 Bolton's than 1 Man U or Liverpool.
