Nicolas Anelka is banned from playing against Wanderers on the last day of the season, according to a report in The Sun.
It is a match which could decide if Chelsea win the title and whether Wanderers beat the drop.
But the report claims the £15m striker Anelka will not figure at Stamford Bridge because of a new rule introduced last summer which states a player cannot face his former team after moving on loan and then signing permanently for that club.
Although it was never made public at the time, Anelka actually signed for Chelsea on loan on the night of Friday, January 11, says The Sun.
That was because there was not enough time to arrange a permanent switch before the home meeting with Spurs the next day.
The deal was sealed the following week but the method of Anelka's transfer means he can only play one more Premier League game this season - at Newcastle on Monday.

The rule which has condemned Anelka to the sidelines on May 11 is the same one which prevented Jermain Defoe playing for Portsmouth at Spurs.
Chelsea asked the Premier League board on Tuesday for special dispensation but their case was thrown out.
I do so hope this is true. Once this fixture was published and we knew Anelka was moving to Chelski some of us with vivid imaginations could envisage a horrendous scenario and hopefully now this could never happen!

Why did we loan him to Tottenham when they only put him on the bench and brought him on for 20 minutes?!?!?! We lost to Blackburn that weekend 2-1!!! Surely Mr Gartside you could have waited for the next week to put the transfer through, got 90 more minutes out of him and allowed the fans to thank him for his goals!! Another one added to the list of Gartside's errors!

I am impressed with the Bolton (Evening) News. Their role now is to copy and paste from 'The Sun' rather than phone up someone at BWFC and check out the syory direct. Have all the telephones been cut off at the B(E)N offices?

Apologies to 'Il Duce'....I see you had already beaten me to this point!
Maybe the B(E)N were telling fibs the other week when they said that they were asking loads of questions of BWFC but getting no answers. Maybe the truth is that they can't be bothered getting off their backsides and asking the tough questions.
No-one cares about all the fluff from Megson about Sunderland being a great side or 'We can emulate Birmingham'. Ask the probing questions! We need answers.

Hang about, why should BWFC comment on the availability of an ex-player??? It's got nowt to do with them. The only people who could or should comment are Chelsea and/or the FA and both are probably too busy to chat about team selection with some smalltown newspaper.
I think some of you seem to think the BN is some kind of Federal Investigation Branch sometimes. It's just a local rag that tells you when there has been a wheelie bin fire or some faulty traffic lights in Crompton Way.

I know, could this be another fallen angel?
How long before he is dropped from the French side for lack of match fitness?
Is painful to see him being used the way he his. When he left us he was about the 4th top scorer in the league, where is he now?

can't believe all this speculation about anelka,will he play,will he not.don't clubs put in clauses to prevent ex players from playing against their former teams?it's not as though we didn't know we would be playing chelski last game of the season.

what is this c*ap theres no way in hell we would have loaned anelka to chelsea and how was there not enough time according to anelka's agent the deal was in the works weeks before the offer was made. though to be honest i hope he cant play as its 1 less player to worry about

Trotter, the man has been sold. It now has nothing to do with BWFC so why should they comment. Only the FA can really say for certain if the player eligible.
The club don't owe you an explanation for absolutely everything!

Dont think Anelka would have made much difference to Chelsea side when you look who they have it their team. We can do our best and hope. COME ON YOU WHITES

Why, then, can't the BN pursue this with BWFC, FA and/of Chelsea to see if there is anything in the Sun report?
Anyway, what is the secret that BWFC feel they can't share the news with BW fans? Unless, of course, they never wanted it revealed that we not only let Anelka go, but we were so desperately to get our hands on the 15 million that we opted for a hushed up loan deal to guarantee we got the money.
This is right up there alongside BWFC and Chelsea negotiating the deal as far back as November (or further back?)!

I think I have that record - bought it from the Happy Shop at Burnden if memory serves me well. It reminds me of those promotion chasing seasons in 75/76/77 when I stood in the Lever End, and the big cup games against Newcastle & Everton. We always seemed to just miss out....
great record i was 12 at time, still remember the tune from my first match. perhaps we could get them to play it today, might be a bit crackly being on vinyl! wish i had a copy, still can hear it in my head, along with the other voices!
