Bolton finally give Coyle a boost

OWEN COYLE has urged his Bolton players to forget all about their troubling start to the new Barclays Premier League season after securing a crucial 3-1 win over Wigan at the DW Stadium.

Coyle’s men went into Saturday’s game bottom of the table but it was a position the Scot always maintained was a false one brought about largely by a shockingly difficult opening fixture list.

Nigel Reo-Coker settled the visitors’ nerves with a fourth-minute opener and, despite Mohamed Diame’s thunderous equaliser, strikes from David Ngog and Chris Eagles handed Bolton the points.
