Dougie Freedman confirmed in tonight's post match press conference that Bolton Wanderers have signed Max Clayton on a permanent transfer for a small fee.
The deal has been agreed and will be officially announced by the club tomorrow assuming he passes his club medical. Freedman said, at 10.30 pm after the victory over Rotherham, "Max Clayton should be announced tomorrow, it is pending on a medical." (Note - yesterday, this blog revealed (here) that the Max Clayton signing would be confirmed today. Freedman left it late but at least he squeezed it in. Cheers Dougie!)

A Bolton Wanderers fan known, online, as White84 spent £200 on a gigantic "Freedman Out" banner ready for tonight's game against Rotherham at the Macron Stadium. However, within minutes of he banner being unleashed, the stewards pounced and had it removed! (continues below) The enormous banner, measuring 30 feet by 4 feet, was draped over the upper tier seats of the East Stand, directly facing Dougie Freedman's dug out area shortly before kick off. Many fans will not have noticed the banner as it was removed about 5 minutes before the players emerged from the tunnel for the game and most supporters had not yet made their way to their seats.
You can easily chat to White84 online (click here) to find out if the banner was seen by the Bolton boss during the team warm up - you might also ask him how he smuggled it into the ground - it must have weighed as much as a small man. Ironically, Bolton went on to notch their first win of the season in what turned out to be one of the most scintillating games of football I have seen in a long while! (As a side note - I did see that the banners and Union Jack flags draped at the front of the South Stand by the travelling Rotherham supporters remained in place (untouched by stewardly hands) for the duration of the game.) Bolton Wanderers are chasing a few players right now but I have a sneaky bit of news which I don't think is out there just yet. The deal for long time target, striker, Max Clayton, is done! (According to my source the club will announce tomorrow)
Bolton Wanderers have agreed a deal with Crewe for the Max Clayton who is out of contract and Clayton is keen to join Bolton. The deal includes a large sell on fee which could benefit Crewe in the long run. The strikers' signature will be officially announced by the club on Tuesday. Swiss International striker, Innocent Emeghara, is also on Bolton Wanderer's radar but the whites could face a battle with Wolves to sign him. Greg Halford could arrive on loan from Nottingham Forest in the next week. Bolton had agreed a deal with Forest, in the summer, for the defenders signature before he picked up a knock in training. But now the loan window is in full swing the deal could be reignited as Forest want him to get some game time. Paddy Kenny also joins Bolton to bolster our goalkeeping options since Adam Bogdan's training ground injury which will see him out for 10 weeks or so. The 36 year old veteran keeper could be available for Tuesday's home game with Rotherham. Chat to me or hurl abuse at me on www.forum.boltonnuts.co.uk Former Bolton Wanderers striker, John McGinlay, has nominated BWFC club chairman, Phil Gartside in the ALS ice bucket challenge!
McGinlay was yesterday heard criticising Dougie Freedman and the BWFC set up after the Wanderers slipped to yet another defeat. McGinlay then took to Facebook with a video of his own ice bucket challenge in which he challenged the chairman with a 24 hour deadline! To see the video (click here) Thanks for reading! The rumour mill has been in full swing for Bolton Wanderers tonight but a couple of things are for sure. Read below to find out what could be happening at the Reebok...
Some are saying that Phil Gartside has quit the club, we can't confirm that but there is certainly something going on at Bolton and with Big Phil who's twitter account has been pulled offline - nobody knows exactly why! Could it be that he has quit the club or had another online rant which has forced the powers that be to yank him off the internet? Could Gartside be in trouble over the ghost deal? You know, the one where he sold a player we didn't even own for £400,000? Who knows, but he probably shouldn't have blurted it out on live radio the other day. Five a side league first match free, second match £15, rest of the season £20 a game Click HERE Marc Iles of the Bolton news says that something big is going down at the club tomorrow and that the Bolton News will be running a full day live blog. Marc Iles also says, "Freedman Livid... some players could be moved on". But when asked about the rumours regarding Knight Freedman and Gartside all quitting the club Iles revealed nothing stating that it's probably a rumour but that freedman is "not a happy chappy". Neil Bonner of the Bolton News said earlier via twitter, "Big changes planned at bwfc. End of the road for some players. No punches pulled." And, "lots to discuss in Monday's paper - all will be revealed." Finally back to Marc Iles who tells Bolton fans to "expect a very interesting 48 hours" at the club.
