It’s crunch time for Sammy Lee. A defeat at Birmingham and a lucky draw against a bunch of Macedonian goatherds. A heavy loss to Spurs and he’s toast.
Vital Quotes: Kevin Nolan
‘There have obviously been a lot of changes. When you’ve had eight years of the same thing maybe the club is just going through a fresher way of managing things. I certainly believe in what Sammy Lee is trying to do and so do all the players.’
A pity you didn’t think of that before you started gobbing off at Portsmouth.
Bolton Team News:

Should have fun against Spurs’s dodgy back line.

Ledley King has a long term sicknote and Anthony Gardner is also out.

Play Cid against him. He’ll be too busy laughing to score.
