AS BOLTON Wanderers experienced one of its most tense days in recent years, fans were left unsure whether the club would escape from administration.

While the Whites look to have survived, supporters are once again asking to sit down with chairman Ken Anderson, to discuss the future.

In a statement, Bolton Wanderers FC Supporters Trust's chairman, Terence Rigby, said: "According to sources, BWFC appear to have narrowly avoided entering into administration today. In light of the events of the last 24 hours, we would confirm that we will, once again, be requesting to meet with Mr Anderson at the earliest possible opportunity. As reported at our AGM in July, we have been requesting to meet with him for some time now, but without success.

"The aim of such a meeting will be to ascertain where the Trust can provide any assistance with regards to securing the best possible outcome for the club, supporters and the greater community.

"We are very disappointed that the events of the last few days have, once again, demonstrated the perilous state of our club's financial position and that further substantial external investment is essential.

"We must now all pull together in ensuring that our club comes through this situation and moves towards a more stable and sustainable future and we will attempt to discuss this with Mr Anderson as a matter of urgency.

"At this time, we are unsure as to how matters will develop, but suffice to say we will endeavour to keep our members as involved as possible, always allowing for the undoubted confidentialities that will be in place.

"As soon as we have any further information to pass on, we will make public through the normal channels."
