Good appointment for them, don't think he'll do enough to take them up anytime soon, give it 3 years and I'd say maybe

I'm not sure if Bolton's finances can allow for another 3 years outside of the Premiership whilst still maintaining a hefty high end Championship budget, given the level of debt they're in, FFP and all that nonsense. It'll be interesting to see how they get on.
