    It is highly likely that at least half their squad will be free agents in a few weeks when they inevitably don't get paid and choose to leave.

    I wouldn't mind Max Clayton, Liam Trotter or a few others joining us.

    Yes, if I were a Bolton player the first place I'd want to come to is the bottom of the third division. Barnsley would be like a magnet for them.

    I just hope we're not daft enough to stick to our principal agreement of signing him on a permanent deal just to give them some money.

    Mark Davies, but we couldn't afford him and he wouldn't come.

    A colleague at work who's a bib BW fan reckoned he'd do well for us when we discussed him at the start of the season. Mindst, he also reckoned Bolton would make the play-offs. :D

    The other side of the arguement though can be put forward as.......

    1) They would get paid playing for us.
    2) They would be two matches away from getting the chance to play at Wembley.
    3) We've been that poor this season that when our form changes and we start to climb the table they look good for being part of a change in fortunes at a club.
