How many are on loan? that could make a difference with only 5 available on a match day.

Hmm, a fresh start with £40m of debt? Do they have old debts to clear or did they die with the takeover? You don't need that kind of money to succeed in League 1. Here we go again.

They need money to buy club etc from the Administrators plus working capital. On page 2 of document in the tweet in bottom red box is list of creditors

What salaries are they paying these boys? If they're paying them more than the £300 a wick we pay our players, I'd like to know where they're getting the money from.

Great to see Bolton fighting for their survival and producing a competitive squad. Pleased for them and their fans, fingers crossed for them.

Something like 8-10 points for each of the two matches would be good Just to make double sure that they are relegated at the end of the campaign

So , f.ck em , stick em with at least 8-10 points penalty to make sure they enjoy life in League 2. I would also like to see Sunderland suffer some more the cocky s**ts . When I see how we have managed under RW it makes me very proud . A Proud Salopian in fact . Shrewsbury Town Forever .,

Not too many more 5-0s then. Too bad for those not lucky enough to have played against the youth team. Hope that points deduction gets doubled. Today might be a case of things getting worse before they get better... but the point still stands. Absolutely should not be assumed that Bolton are goners. Still a big club for this league even after all the shenanigans.

Bolton still have a relatively small squad and some of their recent signings aren't yet playing. Unfortunately for them one of their recent signings broke ribs and collarbone in a car accident last week and will be out for some time. It'll take time for their new side to gel, I'm not surprised results are continuing to go the same way just yet.

0-0 with Oxford. Starting to get it together? How nice for those teams gifted a 5 or 6 goal win against kids. You can just see a promotion or relegation matter coming down to those points or GD gained against Bolton early on.

Only 6700 at the game last night. Ok it was a Tuesday night game but still, I would have expected more given how close they went to going under.

About time that Bolton had the wind taken out of their sails by being deducted further points for not playing those 2 games. Incidentally, I see that they've only been able to keep going by virtue of borrowing £40 million, to be repaid with interest within 3 years.

The new owners have no cash. We will back here again in a couple of years if they are in league two with 4000 gates

Considering the one was last season you do get a feeling that the League will think the 12 point deduction sufficient and they'll simply hope everyone forgets and moves on. I mean one game is the Brentford game from last season isn't it? It really shouldn't be taking this long to bring about some punishment. And if that is the case; 40 million in 3 years...with the first of them in the 3rd division, the 2nd in the 4th.

It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if Bolton only receive a fine in respect of their failure to play those 2 games. There is no rule that says that they have to be deducted points.

What it apparently is,that the new owners have got the club in shares and equity,whatever that means.and the 40 million is loans that will only be used if needed.I'm baffled.

I wonder if the other teams in the Division will make a complaint re the easy three points gained by those who have already played the Bolton Academy !!!! As a previous poster has said, those points gained, and goal difference, could make a huge difference to some teams come the end of the season.

As a previous poster has said, those points gained, and goal difference, could make a huge difference to some teams come the end of the season. Suppose they could, but realistically there’s not much that can be done. I’m not sure there’s any rule regarding the minimum standard of players that a team can put out, and I’m not sure how any kind of rule could be policed. It’s not quantifiable like (for example) individual sports such as golf, motor-racing, skiing or swimming. There competitors can match against a leader’s score / time, and those who fail to make that cut are not eligible to compete. I agree though, it’s a farce how Bolton have been able to carry on. Take for example Tranmere who have had a difficult start to the season, yet gained a 5-0 win without really having to click into second gear.

I don't know why there's a delay in what I would hope to be further sanction against Bolton for failing to fulfil two fixtures. Then again, it the EFL almost until the end of the season to dock Birmingham 9 points for an offence that had been confirmed for months, by which time it made no difference to them or anyone else.
Fining a club emerging from financial turmoil seems inappropriate. As I said a while ago, there should be no question of Bolton avoiding relegation this season and I think further points deductions for the two additional offences would be the right action to take.

Its yet another complete **** up by the league.
