Welcome to The Wanderer, the number one Bolton Wanderers fan site. Here you will find match previews and reports on all of Bolton Wanderers matches, some with a bit of a twist on the usual report. Set Pieces is an area for you to rant and rave or heap some praise,
Any quadrennial peruse of World Cup conetnders always brings up the 'underacheivers' - the teams who should come much closer to winning it than they actually do. Say hello Holland, Spain... and England. These teams have high-profile and successful domestic leagues, have produced some of the...
It's started. A couple of weeks ago the odd flag started to appear on a few cars. Then the adverts. Then the telly sales. More flags on cars. Those pathetic little ping pong balls with red stripes on them that go on car aerials. And now, as we arrive at...
By my reckoning, of the 32 nations taking part in this year’s World Cup finals, exactly half of them have had players represent them at international level who have, at some point, also played for Bolton Wanderers. A far cry from the days when...
What does Owen want this summer? “If there are one or two players at my club who teams are courting, I don’t want to lose anyone, I want to build. There might be one or two who are not figuring as much as they would like and maybe they want...
First off, let me begin the article by saying that I respect Kevin Davies more than most footballers, and I won’t forget the goals he’s scored or the years of commitment he’s put in for the white shirt. He wasn’t doing it all for free, but you’d like to think...

Owen Coyle's first summer as...
The reds might be still in power but the blues are ahead, albeit not with a convincing lead. But enough about the Premier League title race. Bolton are safe for another year, and there’s a party of sorts to be had at the Reebok before thoughts turn to the summer...
Bolton's performance at Stoke was nothing to write home about, but two Matt Taylor goals in 10 minutes of madness ensured that we went home with three points. With safety all but secure, the balance of the season should be a cakewalk for Owen Coyle, right? Finish the last three...
A fine sunny day, a splendid afternoon’s football and a chance to watch the Wanderers outclass Stoke on their way to an easy three points? Well, one out of three is acceptable… Things were always going to be tough from the moment we arrived. Not knowing Stoke, our pubs had been...
Well, we went expecting nowt. And we came away with nowt. So what’s the problem with living down to expectations? In reality, it wasn’t too bad. We put up a decent showing for the first 40 minutes or so, and whilst we rarely troubled Chelsea (with the exception of a couple...
