Bolton have confirmed Dougie Freedman as their new manager.
On Tuesday afternoon, Crystal Palace announced they had parted company with Freedman in order for him to replace Owen Coyle in the Reebok Stadium hotseat.
Wanderers were not forthcoming in rubber-stamping the move, with caretaker boss Jimmy Phillips told to prepare the team for Saturday's trip to Middlesbrough but a statement on Bolton's official website, www.bwfc.co.uk, has announced the appointment.
