BOLTON Wanderers' players have gone on strike, refusing to report for training in protest at the latest unpaid wage run.
The club's playing squad have informed the club they will not return to training until they, their coaches and the non-football staff at the stadium and Whites Hotel have been paid their salaries for March, which were due last Friday.
The move is thought to be a show of solidarity with the staff members at the lower end of the wage scale, who are expected to continue their jobs while uncertainty surrounds their positions and the future of the club.
Phil Parkinson's squad are also said to be unhappy with a lack of information being passed to them with regard to the much-anticipated takeover of the club and the impending court case, with Wanderers facing a winding-up order over an unpaid HMRC tax bill.
That case was adjourned on March 20 and is to be heard at the High Court on Wednesday.
