THEY will not have Fredi Bobic to rely on this time but Wanderers believe they have the character and the class to make this season's 34th game just as decisive as last year's.

Ipswich were the victims last time as the on-loan German striker bagged a first half hat-trick as the Reebok revelled in a 4-1 victory that effectively clinched their Premiership survival.

This time it is West Ham and a win could give Sam Allardyce the distinction of becoming the first Bolton manager for 40 years to secure three successive seasons of top flight football.

"Hopefully we can get the same result," said Per Frandsen, who played a key role in the Ipswich game as an early substitute for the injured Paul Warhurst.

Asked if Wanderers need to send an SOS for Bobic, who now plays for the German club Hannover 96, the Danish dynamo summed up the confidence in the Reebok camp when he said: "We have some good players here. We don't need anyone else.

"And three points ahead of West Ham with a home game against them, it's up to ourselves."
