“Skipper Kevin Nolan will follow Sam Allardyce out of Bolton Wanderers in the next devastating blow for the crisis club.”

So wrote Daily Mirror super muppet, Alan Nixon on 30th April. If only it had been true. Nolan was linked with Everton, West Ham and Newcastle over the summer, but they wisely stayed away.

The tubby scouser wasn`t directly responsible for the defeat against Everton. That was down to Bolton`s defence, who with the exception of Andy O`Brien, were a disgrace. But his lack of ability/presence/effort/interest/movement (take your pick) effectively left the Wanderers a man short in midfield for the entire ninety minutes.

Nolan`s been poor for some time now. All of last season and about half of the previous one to be precise. It`s time for Sammy Lee to wield the axe. Literally, if need be.
