End is nigh for Kean as Trotters ensure Rovers hit rock bottom

MANAGER Steve Kean looks doomed as Blackburn hit rock bottom of the Premier League last night following a calamitous loss to Bolton at Ewood Park.

Already under intense scrutiny, with the local paper calling for his head, the Scot was roundly abused by the home fans from the moment Mark Davies struck his fourth-minute opener.

Nigel Reo-Coker added another before the break and, although Yakubu pulled one back in the middle of a much-improved second-half display, Bolton leapfrogged their relegation rivals, who will spend Christmas Day rooted to the bottom of the league.
