PHIL Parkinson is set to be unveiled as the new manager of Bolton Wanderers.

In a remarkable late twist, a deal has been agreed with Bradford City to bring the Chorley-born 48-year-old to the Macron Stadium ahead of long-time front-runners Steve Cotterill and Nigel Adkins.

Ken Anderson had claimed publicly Wanderers would not be paying compensation but The Bolton News understands a financial agreement has been reached between the two clubs in the last couple of days.

Wanderers fans have waited more than 12 weeks for news of Neil Lennon’s successor but the wait will be over tomorrow when the former Reading and Bury midfielder is unveiled to the press at the Macron Stadium.


Parkinson was the fifth longest-serving manager in the Football League and was moving towards his fifth season at Valley Parade.

He led Bradford to the League Cup final in 2013 and his side were beaten in the play-offs this season by Millwall.

He has also experienced promotion with Colchester United and guided Charlton Athletic to a fourth-place finish in League One in 2010.

On the one decent Bradford forum I've managed to get hold of, there's a big mix of reactions.

Some say he's the best manager they've ever had and it's a sad day. Some say they're looking forward to a change in style of play. Either way there's a lot of anger, shock, mystification that he's left them for a club in as much shit as we are. Most of them see it as a sideways step.

I think every bit of that sounds very familiar.

You should join. They're probably a bit short on bellends.

Is there anything concrete from Bradford? Have they confirmed any of this at all?

this is good news, he's done a great job at Bradford and he's a much better option than the other two mentioned

I'm pretty happy with him as our new manager too. A solid choice considering the circumstances.

The Freedman you once described as our best manager since Big Sam?

Sounds encouraging to me.

Just a message to all you booing bastards, we are in a unique position of having probably the best manager since Big Sam, if you retards want to keep booing the team, carry on, and never blame Gartside for driving out Sam, because you cunts could well drive out Dougie, if you are one who feels the need to boo every decision, fuck off and queue for a ticket in the Stretford end, rant over, but seriously fuck off the club dont need you.

my thought is that these numb fuckers could drive a good young manager away.

Just hold your hands up and take the shame son, when you're on quicksand take the path of least resistance because the more you fight it the deeper in you go
