We asked for your reactions to Bolton’s 2-1 win over Lancashire rivals Preston on Saturday.
Here are some of your comments:
Bolton fans
Paul B: Superb collective performance and it could have been more. All of the new squad members fitted in well and will undoubtedly add more as they adjust. Great start to the new season.
Raymond G: Excellent start in this league against a so called decent side. Need another striker though. Well played Gale and Erhahon. Hopefully we will get fitter and make it less nervous in the last 15 minutes.
Richard: Was very worried after the game against Sheffield Wednesday but thought the team played well as a unit. Gale had the game of his life in the first half and glad both he and Dalby got on the scoresheet. Thought McAtee was as the unsung hero for Bolton though.
Stuart: Comfortable win against a poor Preston. Not sure why Bolton needed to make four subs in the last 15 mins which unbalanced the defence and midfield and nearly cost two points.
Mike: Dominated the game for 86 mins, then subs upset the balance and cohesion of the team leading to a goal back for the visitors, who grew in confidence and probably should have equalised in the dying minutes. But on the balance of the game Bolton earned their victory.
