Well here we are first game of the season, fresh start, new beginnings etc. Bolton relegated from the championship take on one of the big clubs in league one and favorites for promotion in my eyes in Sheffield united. Over 4000 fans in the away end, originally complained about the £32 ticket prices but still paid it . Can Bolton get promoted? Its the hope that kills you. All i will say a good start is essential. Team news a bit vague. Rumours yesterday that Howard, Taylor and proctor have not been fully registered have been denied. Dervite, proctor, Clough and derik are the injury doubts. I expect Howard to make his debut in goal. My guess at the starting 11 is Howard, Wilson, wheater, beevers, moxey, Davies, spearing, pratley, vela, Clayton, madine. Will update as and when. Commentary on tower FM 107.4. Home games no longer covered by radio Manchester as they have lost the rights.

Shedfield were never going to score. Wheater and beevers were a wall at the back. Hope pratley injury not too bad. Spearing hobbling about after the game. No hangover from last season. Look a totally organised outfit compared to laat seasons ahambles.

Best get cracking on the sick list we go again Tues in the silly cup at Blackpool or will we play a weakened side to concentrate on the league ?

Pratley "heard a crack"
Did Iles jinx him saying it was a cracking atmosphere moments before the incident.

Great result. Probably against the best team in this league. Good ole Owen Coyle at it at Blackburn too. Good day.
