Preseason begins

Just a quick update before tonight's opening preseason game against Ayr United.
Bolton have signed Andrew Lonergan from Leeds United.  A GK with good experience, and should be good competition for the number one spot.  I do think Bogdan will still be our main GK for a while yet, but it's good to know we have an experienced backup just in case.

Kevin Davies has been speaking about preseason and how he is impressed with the work rate of the squad so far and that although he recognizes the Championship will be hard work, the squad has a good mix of youth and experience. 

Mears has been speaking to bwfc.co.uk and is looking forward to the tour of Scotland.  Hopefully he should feature tonight and we should get an idea of who will be filling the role of full back, both left and right (Mears and Ricketts would be my first choices).

Elsewhere I did read a rumor that BWFC turned down a bid for N'Gog from a certain French club.  As we only currently have three first team strikers, it wouldn't be a good move off loading one.  In fact it might be a good move in trying to recruit another striker, or at least calling in a favor and loaning one.

Tonight I think we'll see a 442, featuring SKD and maybe new signings Mills and Andrews.  I wonder if we'll see Riley, Alonso or even on trial Cisse?  I'll be keeping track via BWFCs text feed and through Marc Iles on twitter.
