The Trotters dominated proceedings at the University of Bolton Stadium particularly in the first half where chances fell for Eoin Doyle and George Thomason but opposing goalkeeper Josh Griffiths kept Wanderers at bay.

Wanderers have already added two new additions to the squad in the form of experienced former Sheffield Wednesday midfielder Kieran Lee and Swansea City defender Declan John on loan. Evatt has confirmed that more acquisitions will be coming this month, with the Wanderers manager previously admitting other options in the forward areas of the pitch are being targeted.

The Trotters return to the University of Bolton Stadium and will take on the Robins aiming to do the double over Michael Duff's side. When these two sides met last month, Wanderers emerged on top thanks to Ryan Delaney's late winner.

The Trotters made more than 20 acquisitions over the summer transfer window and Evatt had to build up a new squad after a turnover of players took place.

The Trotters have played much of this season with a back three, which has mostly consisted of a combination of the likes of Ricardo Almeida Santos, Ryan Delaney, Alex Baptiste, Harry Brockbank, and Reiss Greenidge.

The Trotters went behind when Ricardo Almeida Santos put through his own net midway through the second half. But Wanderers rallied and fought back to draw level through substitute Arthur Gnahoua who came off the bench to score a leveller.After the game, Bolton boss Ian Evatt spoke to the press and here's his immediate reaction.It was a hard fought point. What did you make of it?“I didn’t think there was a great deal in it.

Wanderers went a lick of paint to grabbing an equaliser, though the Trotters were reduced to 10 men late on when Reiss Greenidge was shown a second yellow card.But Evatt's side are now not in action until Tuesday, January 12, when they are on the road against Exeter City. With the January transfer window now open, the Trotters are poised to add to their squad with Evatt confirming a loan deal for a player is due to be announced on Wednesday.

the Trotters have now lost three home games on the spin after George Francomb's second half goal proved to be the difference between the two sides at the University of Bolton Stadium.

The Trotters are working to bring players in over the course of the next month. One deal which is close to getting over the line is that for former Sheffield Wednesday midfielder Kieran Lee.

Wanderers are closing in on finalising a deal for former Sheffield Wednesday midfielder Kieran Lee. Evatt also believes the club is close to confirming a loan deal for a player, which is expected to be announced early this month.Though Evatt has not named the player in question, there has been speculation that Swansea City defender Declan John is wanted by Wanderers on loan.

The Trotters start the year at the University of Bolton Stadium with a League Two clash against John Yems' side. It will Bolton's first game for a week after the home clash against Morecambe was suspended earlier this week following a coronavirus outbreak in the Shrimps camp.

Wanderers boss has previously said that he feels the squad is three to four players light. And work has been taking place to ensure new arrivals come into the squad.

Wanderers manager Ian Evatt has remained tight lipped on the prospect of signing John ahead of the transfer window opening.So who is the defender that is reportedly wanted by Wanderers and who appears not to have a future at the Championship club?The Welshman was born in Merthyr Tydfil in 1995 and came through the ranks at Cardiff City.John made two appearances for the club in the 2012/12 campaign with games in the League Cup and the FA Cup.He made his league debut for the Bluebirds in the

the Trotters are poised to be active in the market. Wanderers boss Evatt has previously mentioned that he feels the Bolton squad is 'three of four' players light.One of these areas appears to be in central midfield, a gap 32-year-old Lee could fill and has been training with the League Two side recently.

Wanderers were 2-0 down and had a penalty appeal not entertained by referee Ross Joyce.

the Trotters added their second towards the end through Nathan Delfouneso, before Peter Kioso nodded home a dramatic late leveller before the break. The wing-back was later sent off for a second bookable offence.After the game, Wanderers manager Ian Evatt spoke to the press and here's some of the highlights of what he had to say.

The Trotters aim to return to winning ways this weekend in League Two when they play Chris Beech's side at Brunton Park. Wanderers sit 15th in the table heading into the encounter, while Carlisle are third in one of the automatic promotion spots.

the Trotters went behind through Peter Clarke's header on the stroke of the half-hour mark.

Wanderers took the decision to recall Thomason from his loan spell, partly down to the lockdown which meant the postponement of non-league football, but also the midfielder's form while at the Sir Tom Finney Stadium.He made his debut by coming off the bench in the Papa John's Trophy win over Newcastle United's under-21s.He was then handed his first start in League Two against Port Vale and has kept his position in central midfield for the matches against Walsall and Cheltenham Town.And Evatt
