Bolton have moved to replace Neil Lennon with former player Kevin Davies.
Davies, who made over 350 appearance for The Trotters between 2003 and 2013, has no previous management experience but has recently completed his coaching badges and is said to be very excited to be given the opportunity to manage one of his favourite clubs.
"I’m really glad the board have decided to give me this chance. I've been concerned (with the club) for a while. From when I was last here it's gone a bit sterile, the fans don't feel part of the club any more and it's just lost its soul. Hopefully, I can turn things round as there’s been a downward spiral since the club was relegated in 2012. I know we had a good spell under Big Sam with the league cup final and Europa League run, but I think his management was a bit short-sighted, I’ll be looking to give the kids a chance and get a solid foundation in for years to come.”
Bolton are said to be in dire straits financially, so the pressure will certainly be on Davies to assemble a squad capable of competing in the Championship…
