Bolton boss Neil Lennon believes his side must get tougher if they are to pick up points away from home and improve on a worrying start to the season.

On a weekend crammed full of memorable sporting occasions, football let itself down once again.

Manchester City’s great start to the Premier League has been greatly contributed to by their tight defence, with their last four games in all competitions finishing goalless at half time.

Rochdale manager Keith Hill is in no doubt that his team will bounce back tomorrow when they entertain Scunthorpe United at Spotland.

Brian Barry-Murphy says the key to Rochdale’s success over the past two seasons is that their players are required to learn and progress every day.

Neil Lennon believes the combination of experienced new assistant manager Steve Walford and Bolton Wanderers’ mix of cultures can help the club climb the Championship table.

Salford City’s emphatic 5-0 win away to Whitby Town in the FA Cup first qualifying round has set up a local clash with Curzon Ashton in the next round on September 26.

Sergio Aguero’s sensational late 2012 Premier League title winner for Manchester City was so memorable for one super fan that he risked passing out while having a tattoo of the commentary from that unforgettable finale.

Neil Lennon was delighted with Bolton’s continued defensive strength in the goalless draw with Sheffield Wednesday last night – but the Wanderers’ woes in front of goal persisted.

Manchester City’s disappointing 2-1 defeat to Italian side Juventus to kick off their Champions League campaign last night highlights how much work the Premier League pacesetters have to do in Europe, says Yaya Toure.

David Silva and Raheem Sterling were both missing for Manchester City this weekend and were joined off the pitch by an injured Sergio Aguero after 25 minutes, handing Kevin De Bruyne his debut off the bench and stage on which to shine.
