Profile:

Bolton have established themselves as a solid Premiership side ever since they were promoted from the First Division in 1999. Bolton manager Sam Allardyce has a reputation of signing proven world class players for really no fee's at all such as Jay-Jay Okocha and Youri Djorkaeff (who has since left the club). Bolton's best ever finish in the Premiership came last year when they reached the dizzy heights of a European spot. Boss Sam Allardyce has had great success at Bolton since his appointment in 1999 most noteablly their promotion, but in the last few weeks papers have suggested that "Big Sam" will be the next England manager. Bolton moved into the Reebok Stadium in 1997 and since they moved they have started to perform to their best and win back promotion in 1999. Bolton have got of to a flyer this season and they have already played their first European game which they won. I believe Bolton will establish themselves as a solid top half side in the next few years.
