Bolton are fucked. Can easily see a relegation treble in the North West.

Elmander, Taylor, Sturridge - that's 3 important players gone from the club. Infact, with his performances this season, Cahill can be considered the 4th. Hopefully Owen Coyle will avoid the axe.
On a sidenote, both of WBA's goals were pretty good today.

They're also without Holden and Lee who were important players last year. Coyle is unfortunate in many respects because this all happened at a time when Bolton had to pull back financially so some sort of regression was going to happen unless he was able to work some magic, but everything has gone wrong for him.
My only criticism of him is he's trying to get Bolton to play a style they aren't accustomed to or completely comfortable with, they're no longer a team people dislike playing against (I think Stoke are probably that team now) but otherwise where Bolton are isn't that much of a reflection of the work he's done rather than the circumstances surrounding him.
