S5 EP157 Investments, Impressions & One Final Test

Bolton Wanderers’ pre-season preparations are approaching their final stages, and Episode 156 of the Trotter Chatter Podcast is packed with the latest discussion from around the Toughsheet Community Stadium.

We reflect on Wanderers’ goalless draw against Premier League opposition Everton, assessing the impressive defensive display, the performances of the new signings and the players pushing their way into Steven Schumacher’s strongest XI.

We also review the trip to Fleetwood Town, where a heavily rotated Bolton side needed a late Thierry Gale equaliser, and discuss what the performance told us about the depth of the current squad.

Away from the pitch, we take a closer look at the new minority investment from Entrepreneur Equity Partners, what it could mean for the club’s Championship ambitions and Schumacher’s admission that Wanderers still need at least five more players.

There’s also the latest transfer news and rumours, including updates on Kieran Morrison, Amario Cozier-Duberry, Johnny Kenny and Bolton’s search for another goalkeeper.

Finally, we preview the last major pre-season test against NAC Breda, debate whether Schumacher should now field his expected opening-day side and ask whether results are beginning to matter as the Championship campaign draws closer.

Plus, the return of trivia, squad predictions, score predictions, Blind Rank and the launch of the new Trotter Chatter Fantasy League.
