Club Statement

Bolton Wanderers are aware of an incident involving an away coach as it departed the Toughsheet Community Stadium following the FA Cup tie against Solihull Moors on Saturday evening between 5pm and 5.20pm (4th November), resulting in significant damage to the vehicle. 

The Club are currently working closely with Greater Manchester Police to establish the details of what occurred and identify those who were involved.

If you are a supporter or a member of the public who was in the vicinity at the time and would like to report information related to the incident, please TEXT or WhatsApp our dedicated One Wanderers line on 07542 850 902 or email safety.officer@bwfc.co.uk. 

Looking ahead to the weekend, the Club will pay its respects to all those who have lost their lives in conflict at our annual Remembrance fixture at home to Blackpool. 

With over 21,000 tickets already sold for the fixture, we ask all those visiting the stadium at the weekend to please act respectfully and appropriately.

Supporters are reminded that Bolton Wanderers will continue to take a zero-tolerance approach to all forms of anti-social behaviour. 

To be clear, this includes pitch invasions, using pyrotechnics, taking drugs to games, throwing objects or for discriminatory abuse, and the Club will issue strong sanctions against anyone found to have committed such an offence.

Neil Hart, Chief Executive Officer at Bolton Wanderers said: "To reiterate, we are urging supporters to utilise the dedicated One Wanderers phone number and Safety Officer email to help us identify anti-social behaviour at the Toughsheet Community Stadium. 

"As we continue to build a strong Bolton Wanderers with fans and community at its heart, the support of Wanderers throughout the stadium is critical in helping us to put a stop to behaviour that does not represent the values of our Club."
