Friday night football at the unibol as Bolton play at home in the league for the first time since 29th October and that 3-1 defeat by Oxford. Seems strange times with the world cup going on and the match behind changed from Saturday to a bitterly cold Friday night. Looking back at November, only 2 league games but 4 useful points from difficult away games which has left Bolton in 5th with a 2 point cushion over 7th. December with 3 home and 2 away and none against any of the other top 6 looks a key month. Opponents Bristol Rovers are comfortable in 15th and the table is so tight a couple of wins and they're in play off contention. A strange side. I can barely remember a game against Bristol Rovers and there's never been any rivalry at all between the clubs. Team news. The bingo machine is being warmed up for tonight. 21 players available. Dempsey is out until the new year, Isgrove is still injured, Aimson is now training but unavailable for tonight. Kick off 7.45.

A handful of January signing = a handful of January departures doesn't it.
Benny best some rest, there's going to be a lot of changes in the New Year.

The Salop plains can get a bit chilly this time of year.
Come Saturday will it have warmed up and defrosted enough for our early 12.30 kick off.

Bodvarsson and Thomason out until next year.
The sick bay must be nice and warm, there'll be a queueing system for beds introduced after this weekend.

Will the ref make it from Surrey in time for a pitch inspection.
We could play guess the pitch inspection and announcement time.
You don't want to be somewhere on an A road in Salop when the car radio announces its off.

they should have covers on the pitch but I think it will remain frozen so hopefully, it will be off.
You can't play on a frozen pitch these days. Injuries could easily occur; so, if the ref has any sense, it will be called off.
