Bolton Wanderers fans react to Blackburn Rovers friendly

WANDERERS preserved their unbeaten record in pre-season with a 2-2 draw against Blackburn Rovers at the UniBol.

George Johnston and a Hayden Carter own goal put the Whites in a commanding position, but Rovers hit back through Ben Brereton's double.

It was the first time Ian Evatt's men walked out in front of a home crowd since February 2020.

Here is what fans had to say.

Dapo was like a Rolls Royce today. Only a friendly, but plenty to be excited about on that showing.

Play like we did in first half and we win majority of games next season, excellent stuff. Dapo could be League 1 POTY if he carries on like that, he’s so dangerous on the ball and mucks in with defensive dirty work too. VERY optimistic for next week #BWFC

Good performance. Gethin Jones was superb first half. Dapo getting better each game but Johnston definitely the signing of the summer. One thing is for sure. That man hasn't come to sit on the bench and he allows Baptiste to revert to his natural right side of central defence.

Very positive, just like pre-season as a whole.

Only downside was obviously letting them back into the game. Without sounding too critical, game changed when Johnston went off for Brockbank.

Certainly have players more than capable at L1 level.

We can challenge! COYW #bwfc

@dapo_afolayan , @GeorgeJ35 & @JoshSheehan_ very impressive, @ASarcevic leads by example in the middle also - proper captain

Thought we were quality today and ready for the season
This squad and manager and buzz around the club won’t accept anything lower than playoffs I genuinely think
Dapo is incredible what a signing

Dapo will show the league up if that performance is anything to go by. By far the better team but our own mistakes cost us #bwfc

Great workout today, showed a lot of promise for the coming season. Shame we let them back into the game. Great to be back at the unibol. Bring on league 1

Loved the game Dapo is a class above everyone else how lucky are we to sign him but the team in the first half were brilliant really impressed cannot wait till next Saturday bring it on I feel sorry for Ian Evatt having to choose his team for next week
