    S4 EP147 Righting The Wrongs

    Three games to go… and Bolton Wanderers have shown both sides of themselves in the space of a few days. A humbling defeat away at Cardiff raised serious questions, but the response couldn’t have been more emphatic — a dominant 5-1 win over Stevenage to get momentum back on track. In this episode, we break down both performances and ask the key question: which version of Bolton is the real one heading into the playoffs? We discuss: The worrying display at Cardiff and what went wrongA ruthless, attacking response against StevenageThe impact of Amario Cozier-Duberry’s returnKey players stepping up at the right timeWhether Bolton have found their playoff blueprint We also look ahead to a huge clash with Huddersfield — a game that could seal Bolton’s playoff place and potentially knock out a rival in the process.

    Five games remain… and everything is still on the line. Bolton Wanderers head into the defining stretch of the season with momentum building after a huge Easter weekend — a brilliant away win at Plymouth with 10 men, followed by a hard-fought draw against playoff rivals Stockport. In this episode, we break down both results in detail — from tactical adjustments and standout performances to what they tell us about Bolton’s readiness for the playoffs. With players like Johnny Kenny stepping up at a crucial time, are Wanderers finding form when it matters most? Attention then turns to a massive test away at Cardiff — a side sitting second and one of the most consistent teams in the league. Is this Bolton’s final chance to make a statement in the automatic race, or is the focus now fully on playoff preparation? We also discuss: Whether Bolton are built for knockout footballMomentum vs consistency in the promotion raceKey selection decisions heading into the run-inAnd what these final five games could reveal about this squad With pressure rising and margins tighter than ever, the big question is — are Bolton ready for what comes next?
