Football News 24/7

Fans of financially stricken Bolton Wanderers will vote on whether to press ahead with a Supporters’ Trust at a special meeting on Wednesday night at the Macron Stadium.

Ex-Wanderers skipper Kevin Davies is one of the confirmed attendees, having played for Bolton for a number of years in the Premier League before leaving the club in 2013.

“(I) will be at the meeting on Wednesday night to find out more about how a supporters’ trust is run,” he tweeted.

He will be joined by a senior representative of Supporters Direct, who have helped set up similar operations for fans of other clubs.

A statement from the BWFCST working group clarified the presence of Supporters Direct ahead of the meeting.

“Should there be a consensus to form a Supporters’ Trust, Supporters Direct will be enlisted for their extensive experience and will assist with the process of trust formation." They said.

“The presence of SD at the meeting will allow them to fully explain what a trust is and how it can function in a professional football club.”

Bolton were beaten 2-0 by Huddersfield at the Macron on Saturday to leave them bottom of the Championship.
