The 2014–15 season was Bolton Wanderers's third consecutive season in the Football League Championship following their relegation from the Premier League in 2012. It covers the period from 1 July 2014 to 30 June 2015. == Pre-season == On 19 May, four pre-season friendly games were announced, beginning against Macclesfield Town on 18 July and finishing against Port Vale on 30 July, with games against Rochdale and Tranmere Rovers also being played, all away from home. A pre-season tour of Denmark and Sweden was announced on 22 May, which would take in games against Brøndby, Vestsjælland and Mjällby. A final game against Vitesse Arnhem, the first at the renamed Macron Stadium, was added, which would take place on 3 August. On 30 June, the Reebok Stadium officially changed its name to the Macron Stadium. Later that week, the club confirmed that Stuart Holden would remain with the club for the forthcoming season on a non-contract basis as he continued to regain his fitness. Bolton's opening game of pre-season ended in a draw, with former Bolton striker Johan Elmander giving Brøndby the lead. Jermaine Beckford missed a penalty for Bolton, before Craig Davies levelled, also from the spot. Robert Hall was sent off late in the game for a rash challenge. In a game where manager Dougie Freedman fielded two different outfield teams either side of half-time, Gambian trialist Modou Barrow made an appearance from the bench, being brought on for academy player Georg Iliev. Wanderers then travelled to Vestsjælland where they picked up their first win of the pre-season, winning 1-0 courtesy of a first half goal from Liam Feeney. Wanderers' final game on their tour came at Mjällby. Bolton raced into the lead, with Jermaine Beckford and Robert Hall both scoring to make it 2-0 after seven minutes. Mjällby responded well, however, with first half goals from Mattias Håkansson, Kristian Haynes and Kwame Bonsu, handing Bolton their first loss of pre-season. Bolton's first game after coming home from the tour of Denmark and Sweden was away to non-league outfit Macclesfield Town. The home side opened the scoring in the first half through Chris Holroyd but Bolton equalised through young substitute Zach Clough nine minutes from time. They followed this up with a comfortable win against Rochdale, with Neil Danns and young substitute Conor Wilkinson getting the goals. The following game was away to Tranmere Rovers, which finished in a 1-1 draw. Jay Spearing scored his first goal of pre-season to put Wanderers ahead, but Eliot Richards equalised for the home side.Wanderers penultimate game of pre-season came away to Port Vale, where they got off to a good start, with Matt Mills heading home his first goal of pre-season. Jermaine Beckford doubled Bolton's tally from over 30 yards. Tom Pope pulled a goal back for the home side late on, but Bolton held on for the win. On 26 July, the club confirmed that Jay Spearing would be the club captain for the forthcoming season, following the departure of Zat Knight. Matt Mills, meanwhile, was appointed as the club's vice-captain. In their final game of pre-season, the home friendly against Vitesse Arnhem, Bolton fell behind to a Marko Vejinović free-kick and could not muster a response, losing the first fixture at their renamed stadium. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2014–15 Bolton Wanderers F.C. season」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
