ON a more positive note for Wanderers, the club has finally sold their former Burnden Park home.

That's excellent news not only for the club but for Bolton.

The site has been a blot on the landscape for the two years since Wanderers played their final match there.

Clearly the sale - set to be made for £6.75 million - will ease financial pressures on the club and will be used to repay the £6.75 million loan to the club's bankers.
