An additional game, the only one to be played at the Reebok Stadium, against Barcelona B, the reserve side of Barcelona, was announced on 29 June. On 6 June, a tour of Scotland was announced, with the team visiting Ayr United, Hamilton Academical and Falkirk.
Bolton began their pre-season games at Ayr United where they drew 1–1, Marcos Alonso scoring midway through the second half before Mark Roberts equalised for the home side. Three days later, Bolton travelled to Hamilton Academical where, after a quiet first half, Hamilton won the game with two quick goals through Andy Ryan and Stephen Hendrie. Bolton completed their Scottish tour with a trip to Falkirk four days later. Falkirk striker Lyle Taylor scored after just fifteen seconds, lobbing Ádám Bogdán, with Chris Eagles equalising 14 minutes later. The game finished as a draw, meaning that Bolton finished their time in Scotland without a win.
The club's first game after returning to England was against Crewe Alexandra. Crewe took the lead on thirteen minutes through Max Clayton, but Bolton equalised when Martin Petrov converted a penalty midway though the first half. With no further goals scored, Bolton still remained without a win during the pre season. The first win of the pre-season came in the following game, when two early goals from Chris Eagles and David Ngog, playing his first game after injury had kept him out of the previous fixtures, gave Bolton a 2–0 victory over Morecambe. This was followed by a 3–0 loss at Portsmouth, where the home side scored two goals through Kieran Djilali and Liam Lawrence, with Ashley Harris scoring a third in the second half. New signing Benik Afobe made his first appearance for Bolton as a substitute during the game. Afobe made his second appearance for the club, and scored a hat trick, in Bolton's penultimate pre season game, as they beat Tranmere Rovers 3–1, Jean-Louis Akpa Akpro replying for the home team. Bolton concluded their pre-season with a 2–2 draw at home at Barcelona B. The home side, playing their only pre-season game at The Reebok Stadium, twice came from behind, Marvin Sordell and a Sergi Gómez own goal cancelling out efforts by Cristian Lobato and Iván Balliu.

August
The season did not get off to the best of starts, with Bolton losing at Burnley. Goals from Martin Paterson and Charlie Austin gave the home side a 2–0 win. Keith Andrews and Benik Afobe made their debuts for Bolton, Andrews starting and Afobe coming on as a second-half substitute for Kevin Davies. This meant that Bolton began the season in the relegation zone, in twenty second place. Three days later, Bolton played their first home game of the season, against Derby County. After a goalless first half, Bolton took the lead through Kevin Davies with 13 minutes left before Chris Eagles doubled the lead in added time to give Bolton their first win of the season and move them to 14th in the table. The following Friday, Bolton played in front of the television cameras for the first time this season, at home against Nottingham Forest. Forest took the lead when Lewis McGugan scored from 30 yards out, but Eagles equalised shortly before half time after a Kevin Davies header came back off a post. Marvin Sordell gave Bolton the lead four minutes into the second half, before Andy Reid equalised for Forest, the game finishing as a 2–2 draw. After the weekend results, Bolton had climbed one place to 13th. Bolton's Player of the Month for August was Chris Eagles.https://www.bwfc.co.uk/news/2012/september/eagles-wins-monthly-club-award/ Eagles Wins Monthly Club Award Bolton Wanderers F.C. bwfc.co.uk
September
Bolton began September away at Hull City on the first day of the month and took the lead through Chris Eagles' third goal of the season, a thirty five yard free kick. Sone Aluko scored an equaliser for the home side twelve minutes later before former Bolton player Abdoulaye Faye and Stephen Quinn scored two goals in quick succession shortly after half time to give Hull a 3–1 victory. Following their second defeat of the season, Bolton entered the first international break of the season in twentieth place in the division.
Bolton returned from the international break with a home fixture against Watford. A crowd of 16,608, Bolton's lowest league crowd since May 2001, saw Matt Mills score his first goal for the club early in the first half before Kevin Davies doubled the lead just before half time. Lloyd Doyley pulled one back for Watford, but Bolton held onto the lead and the victory took them up to 11th in the table. However, the next game saw them fall back to 15th as they lost 2–1 at Birmingham City. An early Leroy Lita goal was cancelled out by Chris Eagles just before half time, but Marlon King scored from the penalty spot soon after the restart to give the home side the win. The following Saturday, Bolton picked up their first away win of the season at Sheffield Wednesday. Marcos Alonso scored his first goal of the season late in the first half, but Wednesday replied with a second half penalty by Ross Barkley. However, Bolton claimed the win when Mark Davies, with his own first goal of the season, regained the lead almost immediately. The win took Bolton up to thirteenth position, but they failed to capitalize on this victory by losing 1–0 at home to Crystal Palace the following Saturday, Glenn Murray scoring the only goal of the game from the penalty spot after Zat Knight had fouled Wilfried Zaha. Bolton's Player of the Month for September was Chris Eagles again, winning it for the second month in a row.https://www.bwfc.co.uk/news/2012/october/eagles-receives-the-fans-vote/ Eagles Receives The Fans' Vote Bolton Wanderers F.C. bwfc.co.uk
October
A home game against Leeds United followed three days later. Kevin Davies scored his fourth and fifth goals of the season, but another conceded penalty, converted by Luciano Becchio, and a Sam Byram goal gave Leeds the draw. Bolton's last game before the next international break was away at Millwall. The home side took the lead through Darius Henderson midway through the first half but Chris Eagles equalised early in the second before missing a penalty. Bolton were ultimately punished for this miss by Henderson, who scored his second in stoppage time, giving Millwall the win. This meant that Bolton entered the international break in 18th place.
Three days later, on 9 October, manager Owen Coyle was relieved of his duties by the club, with Academy Director Jimmy Phillips and head of academy coaching and development, and former club manager, Sammy Lee being placed in temporary charge.https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/19869286 Owen Coyle is sacked by Bolton Wanderers BBC Sport/sport 2012-10-09 2012-10-09 Their first game in temporary charge was against Bristol City on 20 October.

Jay Spearing scored his first goal for the club midway through the second half to equalise and Martin Petrov scored with eight minutes to give Bolton a 3–2 win, which moved them up to 15th.
Bolton began a run of two away games on 23 October at Wolverhampton Wanderers with Phillips still in charge. Bolton took the lead through Benik Afobe's first league goal of the season but Wolves replied before half-time with two Kevin Doyle goals within a three-minute period. With time running out, former Wolves player Mark Davies scored in the first minute of stoppage time, his second of the season, to equalise.

November
After watching from the stands against Middlesbrough, Freedman took charge against league leaders Cardiff City on 3 November. Bolton fell behind in the 40th minute to a Craig Noone goal. In the second half, Freedman brought on David Ngog for captain Kevin Davies and Ngog had a goal incorrectly disallowed for offsidehttps://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/20107686 Bolton 2–1 Cardiff BBC Sport before winning a penalty in the sixty ninth minute after being tripped by Kim Bo-kyung. Martin Petrov converted the penalty to equalise and then Ngog himself scored in the 74th minute to give Bolton a 2–1 lead before being sent off in stoppage time for a second bookable offence. Bolton held on for the three points, which moved them up one position in the table to seventeenth.
Bolton's next game was three days later against Leicester City with the game finishing goalless, which kept Bolton in 17th. An away game at Blackpool followed on 10 November, marking Freedman's first away game as manager. Bolton took the lead early in the first half with Mark Davies' third of the season, but Blackpool equalised three minutes later through Tom Ince. Bolton regained the lead late in the second half through Lee Chung-yong's second of the season but Blackpool equalised again ten minutes later, with Nathan Delfouneso scoring. The game finished 2–2 and the point kept Bolton in seventeenth position for the third match running. The following weekend, Bolton's played at home against Barnsley. Kevin Davies opened the scoring midway through the first half with his fifth goal of the Season but Barnsley equalised through Craig Davies midway in the second half. The game finished 1–1, Bolton's third consecutive draw, and the point kept Bolton in seventeenth position for the fourth match in succession.
Bolton's next match was against Brighton & Hove Albion. Ádám Bogdán saved a penalty from Brighton's Ashley Barnes in the first half and the home side also hit the post three times. Despite this, the first half finished goalless. Shortly after the break, Bruno scored for Brighton to give them the lead. With the game heading towards a close, David Ngog scored with the last kick of the game to equalise for Bolton. This was Bolton's fourth consecutive draw and they dropped one place in the table to eighteenth. Bolton's last match of November came four days later, away against their geographically closest divisional rivals, Blackburn Rovers. Wolverhampton Wanderers' defeat the previous evening had already seen Bolton rise back to 17th. Kevin Davies, with his sixth goal of the season, scored early on and Bolton doubled the lead midway through the second half through Lee Chung-yong's third of the season. Jordan Rhodes pulled one back for Blackburn with eight minutes to go, but Bolton held on to claim their second away win of the season and remained in the same position in the league.

The points moved Bolton up five places, from 18th to 13th. A week later, Bolton played bottom of the table Peterborough United. Within the first six minutes, Peterborough were 2–0 up through goals from Lee Tomlin and Dwight Gayle.

With ten minutes to go, Bolton pulled two back through Benik Afobe's third of the season and Martin Petrov's third of the season, but it wasn't enough as the match ended in a 5–4 defeat. This defeat was Bolton's second of the month and it caused them to drop three places to 16th.
Bolton's next game was against Sheffield Wednesday at home on Boxing Day. Wednesday won with a goal from Mamady Sidibé midway through the first half. This was Bolton's second consecutive defeat.

Keith Andrews then converted a second half penalty to wrap up the three points and send Bolton into the new year in 14th place, and eight points off the play-offs. Jay Spearing, on loan from Liverpool, was December's Player of the Month.
January
Bolton started 2013 with a loss at Leeds United, a solitary goal scored by Luciano Becchio from the penalty spot being the difference. A home draw against Millwall followed, with each team scoring a penalty in the first half. Andy Keogh converted for the away side before Keith Andrews equalised.

Marvin Sordell was January's Player of the Month.
February
Bolton began February with a visit to Watford. The game saw Marvin Sordell's first return to his former club since leaving the previous year and it was the former Watford man who opened the scoring through a penalty midway through the first half. Watford equalised almost immediately when Matěj Vydra scored and completed the turn around in the second half through Almen Abdi. The result saw Bolton fall to twentieth place, three points off the relegation zone. Their next game was at home against Burnley. Burnley took the lead through David Edgar shortly after half-time. Craig Davies scored his first goal for Bolton 11 minutes later which was followed 25 minutes later by a David Ngog winner, his fifth of the season. The win moved Bolton up three places to 17th.

The match finished level despite Marcos Alonso being sent off for two bookable offences with ten minutes remaining to prevent returning Forest manager Billy Davies from starting his second spell in charge with a win. Against another of Brian Clough's former sides, Derby County, Bolton took the lead late in the first half with a headed goal that was initially attributed to Craig Dawson but was later given as an own goal by Derby captain Richard Keogh. Bolton could not hold on to their lead, however, and conceded to another headed goal in the 81st minute; Jamie Ward's tenth goal of the season. The draw left Bolton four points from the relegation zone and 12 points from the play-off positions.
Bolton's next game was against second-placed Hull City. Within eight minutes, Bolton were 3–0 up with goals from Darren Pratley; his first of the season, Mark Davies; his sixth of the season and Craig Dawson's first for the club. Robbie Brady pulled one back for Hull with a free-kick, but two minutes later Dawson scored again to give Bolton back their three-goal cushion.

March
Bolton's first match of the new month took place at Oakwell, against Barnsley. Bolton went into half-time with a two-goal lead following goals from David Ngog and then Jay Spearing. Barnsley pegged Bolton back to 2–2 in the second half through Tomasz Cywka and Chris O'Grady, but Craig Dawson scored his fourth goal in three games to hand Bolton the win, leaving them unbeaten in six with wins in each of their last three games and sending them above Nottingham Forest to ninth in the table. Three days later Bolton played local rivals Blackburn at home. Just as the game was looking to end in a goalless draw, Chris Eagles scored deep into injury time to win the game for Bolton. It was Eagles' first goal since December and was his 8th of the season. It was also Bolton's fourth consecutive home win, their fourth consecutive win and took their unbeaten spell to seven games. Bolton's next match was also at home, against Brighton & Hove Albion, who had occupied the final play-off spot before the match. Bolton won the match through a solitary Marcos Alonso goal in the first half, his third of the season. This allowed them to leapfrog Middlesbrough into eighth, two points behind Brighton and three behind Nottingham Forest in sixth place. Bolton's unbeaten streak came to an end against Ipswich Town at Portman Road, losing 1–0 to a late Carlos Edwards goal and leaving them five points off the play-offs going into the international break.

Bolton lost their first match after the international break away to Charlton Athletic. After initially going 2–0 up through Marvin Sordell and Medo's first for the club, Charlton hit back with three of their own, two of which came after Sam Ricketts was sent off for a second bookable offence. Bolton then had Craig Davies sent off in injury time. Bolton's Player of the Month for March was named as Marcos Alonso.
April
Bolton's first match of April was against Huddersfield Town at the Reebok Stadium. Bolton looked to extend their home winning streak to six games and they succeeded in this endeavor courtesy of a Chris Eagles goal in the second half. In their next game Bolton looked to make it seven consecutive wins at home for the first time since under Bruce Rioch in 1995. Two goals in the first ten minutes from David Ngog and Marcos Alonso and no reply from Wolves ensured they obtained the win and a fifth successive clean sheet at home. Bolton collected only their fourth away win of the season at Ashton Gate against bottom club Bristol City. A Liam Fontaine own goal gave Bolton the lead before Steven Davies equalised for City. Craig Davies scored from the penalty spot, his third of the season, to give Bolton the three points. The win moved Bolton into the play-off spots for the first time this season.
They were not able to follow this up with another away win, however, as they lost to fellow play-off chasers Leicester City. Bolton had initially taken the lead in the third minute through a penalty which David Ngog converted for his eighth goal of the campaign. Leicester hit back with two goals in three minutes towards the end of the first half; the goals coming from a Chris Wood penalty and Lloyd Dyer. Bolton equalised through Darren Pratley, but it wasn't enough as Jeff Schlupp volleyed home to send Bolton back to the Reebok Stadium with no points. Following this result, Bolton dropped to seventh place with Leicester City taking the vacated final play-off spot. Looking to extend their unbeaten home run in their penultimate home match of the season against Middlesbrough, Bolton forced their way back into the play-offs at the expense of Leicester. After a goalless first half, Bolton took the lead when Chris Eagles' cross looped over goalkeeper Jason Steele. Middlesbrough equalised with a header from Kieron Dyer but three minutes later, Darren Deadman awarded a penalty to Bolton after Jonathan Woodgate brought down Lee Chung-yong. Marvin Sordell scored the penalty to give Bolton the win. Woodgate was later given a second caution and was sent off for pulling back Marvin Sordell.
Bolton's final match of the month and penultimate match of the season came against champions Cardiff City. Chris Eagles side-footed in the opener in the 18th minute, sending Bolton into half-time 1–0 up. However, winger Craig Noone, who also scored in the reverse fixture, levelled the scores with a free-kick in the 68th minute. Dougie Freedman was named as manager of the month for April.https://www.bwfc.co.uk/news/2013/may/boss-wins-monthly-award/ Boss wins monthly award Bolton Wanderers F.C. bwfc.co.uk

BOL
FA Cup
Bolton entered the 2012–13 FA Cup at the Third Round stage with the other Championship clubs, as well as those from the Premier League. The draw was made on 2 December 2012 by former Bolton player Fabrice Muamba and Ledley King; Bolton were drawn against Premier League team Sunderland at the Reebok Stadium. Bolton took a 2–0 lead with goals from Lee Chung-yong and Marvin Sordell, but Sunderland fought back for a draw through Connor Wickham and Craig Gardner, meaning there will be a replay at the Stadium of Light. Bolton won the replay 2–0, with both goals coming from Marvin Sordell; his first from the penalty spot. Stuart Holden played only his second match since being injured by Jonny Evans in March 2011. Facing Everton in the next round, Bolton went 1–0 down in the 18th minute to a Steven Pienaar goal, before Marvin Sordell scored his fourth goal in the competition to equalise. However, in the first minute of stoppage time, substitute John Heitinga scored from the edge of the penalty area to send Bolton out of the FA Cup.

Transfers
Summer
At the end of the 2011–12 season, the club confirmed that they had released seven first-team players, along with reserve-team players Mark Connolly, Rhys Bennett, Tope Obadeyi, Tom Eckersley and Dino Fazlić. Among those released was Ricardo Gardner, who had been with the club since 1998, and was the second longest-serving player in the squad. Midfielder Nigel Reo-Coker invoked a clause in his contract which allowed him to leave, as the club had been relegated. Bolton had also offered Zat Knight and Jussi Jääskeläinen new contracts, but at the end of May, Jääskeläinen declined the contract offer and left the club after 15 years, leaving striker Kevin Davies as the club's longest-serving player. Jääskeläinen would later join former Bolton manager Sam Allardyce at West Ham United.
Bolton's first signing of the pre-season was made on 29 June, with free agent Keith Andrews joining. Matt Mills followed him into the club on 4 July, signing from Leicester City for an undisclosed fee. Joe McKee became Bolton's third signing reuniting with Owen Coyle who had bought him for Burnley three years prior. On 17 July, Bolton strengthened their goalkeeping line up with the signing of Andrew Lonergan from Leeds United, again for an undisclosed fee. Bolton's first signing of August saw Benik Afobe sign on a season long loan from Arsenal, but in January 2013, it was cut short by five months as Arsenal recalled him from his loan. On transfer deadline day, Jay Spearing joined from Liverpool on a season's long loan, while Michael O'Halloran joined Carlisle United for a month. However, he returned twelve days later.
Bolton made their first signing of the loan transfer window on 21 September by bringing in Aston Villa defender Stephen Warnock on a three-month loan. Six days later, reserve striker Tom Eaves joined Bristol Rovers on a three-month loan deal. Another reserve team striker, Jack Sampson, joined Accrington Stanley on a one-month loan deal on 11 October. Bolton signed Jacob Butterfield on a one months loan deal from Norwich City on 8 November. The loan deal was extended for another Month on 10 December. On 22 November, loan transfer deadline day, Gregg Wylde joined nearby Bury for a month whilst O'Halloran went on loan again, this time to Tranmere Rovers. O'Halloran's loan was extended for another month in January which was then extended until the end of the season on deadline day.
Winter
Bolton's first action of the January transfer window was to bring in Welsh international Craig Davies from Barnsley for £300,000. On 14 January, Bolton allowed Martin Petrov to join Spanish Team Espanyol for free. Bolton followed this with the signings of England under-21 international Craig Dawson on loan from West Bromwich Albion (three months) and Slovakia under-21 international Ján Greguš on loan from Czech side Baník Ostrava (a year). Bolton had a busy transfer deadline day, 31 January, as they started by making the signing of young defender Cian Bolger from Leicester City on a three-and-a-half-year deal, but the manager Dougie Freedman confirmed he would start in the development squad. Then, it was confirmed that Bolton had made the signing of Steve De Ridder on loan from Southampton (one-month initially), and followed it up with the signing of Sierra Leone defensive midfielder Medo from Serbian club Partizan on a three-and-a-half-year deal. It was also announced that Benik Afobe had gone back to his parent club Arsenal after Bolton cut his loan deal short.
The first deal of the new loan window took place on 21 February and saw Tom Eaves go out for his second loan spell of the season, this time an initial one-month deal to Shrewsbury Town which was later extended for another month. On 28 March, Bolton loaned out Stuart Holden to Sheffield Wednesday for a month and loaned in Robert Hall from West Ham until the end of the season and manager Dougie Freedman's former Crystal Palace teammate Danny Butterfield from Southampton on an emergency loan deal until 4 May.
