After travelling to the south of Spain for a week-long training camp on 7 July 2013, Bolton returned to play against Rotherham United, a game they lost 2–1 despite taking the lead through Marvin Sordell. They next played Shrewsbury Town, to whom Tom Eaves was on loan towards the end of the 2012–13 season. The game ended in a 3–3 draw, with a Sordell brace and a goal from Chris Eagles. The penultimate game was at Carlisle United where Bolton lost 1–0 after an early goal. Bolton announced their home pre-season friendly on 3 June 2013, facing Real Betis on 26 July at the Reebok Stadium.Bolton to face Betis http://www.bwfc.co.uk/news/article/bolton-to-face-betis-3.6.13-852318.aspx www.bwfc.co.uk Bolton Wanderers F.C. 3 June 2013 Bolton lost their final pre-season friendly 2–0 courtesy of goals from Jorge Molina and Joan Verdú either side of half-time.

After falling behind to a Danny Ings shot that deflected off David Wheater in the 26th minute, the goal eventually being given to Ings by the Football League, Bolton equalised through Darren Pratley in the 37th minute. No further goals were scored to give Bolton a draw in their first match of the season. Bolton's first home game of the season was against relegated Reading. Darren Pratley got his second goal in as many league games to put Bolton in the lead, but Reading equalised through a Nick Blackman penalty early in the second half. On 17 August Bolton travelled to the City Ground to face Billy Davies' Nottingham Forest. Bolton conceded after two minutes to a Jamie Mackie goal, which was followed by two further goals in the second half for Nottingham Forest to hand Bolton their first defeat of the season, with Darren Pratley being sent off during the match. Bolton's second home game of the season came against QPR, who had been relegated from the Premier League the previous season. The game was preceded by the unveiling of a statue of Nat Lofthouse outside the Reebok Stadium. After a goalless first half, QPR edged ahead through Andy Johnson in the 54th minute. This was Bolton's first home loss in 2013, ending a 12-game unbeaten home run, and left them without a win in the new season. Bolton's winless run continued against local rivals Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park, where they fell to a 4–1 loss. This left Bolton at the foot of the table going into September. September At home to Leeds United, Bolton conceded to an early Luke Varney goal from a corner and failed to respond; with Bolton registering only one shot on target throughout the match. The loss, Bolton's fourth in a row, left them winless in the new season, though they moved off the foot of the table courtesy of Millwall's poorer goal difference. Despite halting their four-game losing run with a 2–2 draw in their next game against Derby County, Bolton slipped to the bottom of the table again as Millwall beat Blackpool. Defender Alex Baptiste scored his second goal of the season to put Bolton ahead on five minutes before Johnny Russell scored two to put Derby in front. Chris Eagles equalised after forty minutes to earn Bolton the point. In their eighth match, Bolton faced Brighton & Hove Albion at Falmer Stadium. After taking the lead through a Lee Chung-Yong cross that deflected off David López, Bolton went in at half-time a goal to the good. However, after conceding three goals in four minutes in the second half, Bolton left Brighton with no points. In their final game of September, Bolton faced the Glovers, Yeovil Town. Yeovil took the lead after 'keeper Ádám Bogdán spilled an Ed Upson shot before Alex Baptiste headed in his third goal of the season in the 90th minute to equalise and push Bolton off the foot of the table, with Barnsley dropping below them. October Aiming to finally get their first win of the season, Bolton kicked off at Blackpool's Bloomfield Road. Striker Jermaine Beckford hit the woodwork, while Kevin McNaughton and Neil Danns made their debuts and Liam Feeney earned his first start, but Bolton could not break the deadlock and the game finished 0–0, giving Bolton just their third clean sheet away from home since their win against QPR on the opening day of the 2011–12 season and ending Blackpool's season-long run of scoring in every match. After naming an unchanged side for the game against Birmingham City, Bolton took the lead with Jermaine Beckford's first league goal of the season before loanee Neil Danns scored against his former club to double the lead. Bolton were pegged back by substitute Nikola Žigić's header which looped over Ádám Bogdán, but held on to earn their first win of the season. Žigić's goal was later credited to Lee Novak. After the international break, Bolton played host to Sheffield Wednesday, the only team in the league without a win. Jermaine Beckford followed up his goal in the previous game by opening the scoring but Alex Baptiste put through his own net for Wednesday to equalise. In the last five minutes, Wednesday's José Semedo was sent off for a tackle on Jay Spearing but Bolton were unable to capitalise on the advantage as the match ended 1–1. The following match took place against Ipswich Town, with Bolton looking to win at home for the first time. After taking the lead through a free-kick taken by Medo Kamara, David McGoldrick equalised for Ipswich, leaving Bolton five games unbeaten but just one place above the relegation zone. November Bolton first game of November came against Bournemouth at the Goldsands Stadium. Late in the first half, David Ngog rounded Bournemouth 'keeper Lee Camp to open the scoring. Bolton held out for the second half until Jermaine Beckford scored his fourth goal of the season in the 90th minute to seal the win which left Bolton with a six-match unbeaten run with four draws and two wins. Bolton's next game against Millwall extended that run with their first home win of the season as Robert Hall, Jermaine Beckford and André Moritz all scored past David Forde in a 3–1 victory. Extending their unbeaten run to eight matches and earning their third consecutive away win, Bolton edged past Watford at Vicarage Road in their next match. When Manuel Almunia dropped a Neil Danns cross, Jermaine Beckford was there to score his fifth goal in six games and give Bolton the three points. On the final day of November, Bolton travelled to the Riverside Stadium to face Middlesbrough for new manager Aitor Karanka's first home game for Boro. The match was decided by two penalties; Grant Leadbitter scoring his after Tim Ream fouled Marvin Emnes in the box, before substitute André Moritz won a penalty only for Jermaine Beckford to miss. This 1–0 loss ended Bolton's eight-match unbeaten run. December Back at the Reebok Stadium against Huddersfield Town after an international break and two away matches, Bolton failed to capitalise on their previous home win against Millwall, falling to Oliver Norwood's second strike in two games, beating Andy Lonergan from 30 yards. In an attempt to bounce back from the two consecutive defeats, Dougie Freedman made five changes from the team that fell at home to Huddersfield Town. André Moritz, who retained his place from the previous game, set up Joe Mason to score on his full debut before scoring himself from long range. Neil Danns wrapped things up in second half stoppage time to push Bolton back up to 15th place. Bolton faced Wigan on 15 December at the DW Stadium. As ex-Bolton manager Owen Coyle had been sacked by Wigan in the week preceding the match, new manager Uwe Röslerr was looking to win in his first home game. Wigan were 2–0 up at half-time. They opened the scoring when Matt Mills was adjudged to have handled the ball in the box and Ben Watson subsequently dispatched the resulting penalty, before on-loan Nick Powell scored on 25 minutes. Bolton levelled 20 minutes after the break, their first goal coming four minutes after the restart, Neil Danns scoring his third goal for the club and the second came when Lee Chung-Yong was kicked in the penalty area, giving André Moritz the chance to put away the spot-kick for his third. However, just four minutes later, Wigan restored their lead through Callum McManaman to send Bolton home with no points. Bolton entered Christmas in 18th place thanks to a 1–1 draw with Charlton Athletic at the Reebok Stadium. They fell behind to a goal from Yann Kermorgant before equalising with Kevin McNaughton's first goal since 2008. Bolton won against Barnsley on Boxing Day, with Neil Danns scoring in the last game of his loan spell, as he was unable to play against Leicester City, his parent club, that weekend. Bolton's final game of the year was a thrilling affair with eight goals being shared between the two sides. Bolton finished on the wrong end of the scoreline; with Leicester winning 5–3. Leicester took the lead through former United player Danny Drinkwater before goals from André Moritz and Jermaine Beckford turned the tie in Bolton's favour. Leicester equalised when Anthony Knockaert scored but Moritz scored his second just a few minutes later. Leicester equalised a second time when Tim Ream deflected into his own net just before half-time. Leicester scored two more in the second half; Lloyd Dyer and Gary Taylor-Fletcher earning the three points for Leicester. January In their first home game of the new year, Bolton went 2–0 down in the first twenty minutes of the game against Middlesbrough. With nine minutes gone, Zat Knight lost the ball on the edge of the box, allowing Mustapha Carayol to play in. Following this, an error in communication between Knight and Andy Lonergan resulted in an over-hit backpass which let Curtis Main steal in to bag Middlesbrough's second. Alex Baptiste then scored his fourth goal of the season before half-time, and David Ngog scored in the final minute of normal time to rescue the point for Bolton. In their next game, Bolton were thoroughly beaten by Reading at the Madejski Stadium. Adam Le Fondre scored a first half hat-trick within 33 minutes, before Pavel Pogrebnyak added a fourth after Alex Baptiste handled in the box to concede a penalty. The half-time scoreline was then nearly doubled; Kaspars Gorkšs, Hope Akpan and Nick Blackman making it seven. Sanmi Odelusi assisted David Ngog's consolation goal, with two minutes remaining in the game. Bolton lost for the third time running in all competitions, going down 2–1 to QPR at Loftus Road, Jay Spearing scoring his first of the season via a deflection in the last ten minutes. February Bolton began the new month with another loss; to Ipswich Town at Portman Road. Andy Lonergan brought down David McGoldrick to concede a penalty which the striker also scored. Beginning a run of four home games in the next five, Bolton faced Bournemouth at home. Bolton obtained a two-goal lead in the first half-an-hour through Lee Chung-Yong's first of the season and Lukas Jutkiewicz's first for the club. However, Bournemouth replied almost immediately through Lewis Grabban before equalising from a corner; Simon Francis scoring the goal. Facing local rivals Burnley, also at home, Bolton fell to a second half goal from Sam Vokes. Following the game, Burnley manager Sean Dyche claimed that Bolton's match-day programme had partly inspired the win, saying, "I just took a few of the quotes and went up to a couple of them (Burnley players) and went 'apparently we're having a tough time'."Dyche Sean Bolton Wanderers 0–1 Burnley https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/26027856 10 February 2014 BBC Sport 19 February 2014 They faced Millwall after this, at The Den. Despite taking the lead through Lukas Jutkiewicz in the 15th minute, as well as hitting the post from a Chris Eagles free-kick and missing a penalty which Jutkiewicz took, Bolton only returned with a point as Martyn Woolford equalised from a tight angle. Bolton started with two strikers in their next game against Watford, following Joe Mason's return to the club on loan. His strike partner Lukas Jutkiewicz scored his third goal in six games for the club before Mason scored on his second debut for the club, as he did against Doncaster earlier in the season. Bolton drew the second half to earn their third home win of the season. March Bolton made it two wins on the run in their first match of the new month, against local rivals Blackburn, who had beaten them 4–0 earlier in the season. Bolton made amends; winning 4–0 with two goals in either half. Medo Kamara opened the scoring with a placed header, having been set up by Neil Danns' cross before Joe Mason doubled the lead with his second strike in as many games shortly before half-time. Jay Spearing furthered the lead two minutes after the break; his long-range shot bouncing off the crossbar and over the line, leaving substitute André Moritz to finish the scoring with a low, powerful shot to Paul Robinson's right which the former England 'keeper couldn't keep out. In news off the field, Stuart Holden was again injured after returning to playing duties in an U-21 match against Everton, against whom he completed only 23 minutes.U21s: Bolton 2–3 Everton http://www.bwfc.co.uk/news/article/u21s-bolton-2-3-everton-3314-1396192.aspx www.bwfc.co.uk Bolton Wanderers F.C. On the Tuesday of the following week, it was announced that he would be out of the game again for between six and nine months following another operation on his knee.Holden sidelined http://www.bwfc.co.uk/news/article/holden-sidelined-11.3.14-1414074.aspx www.bwfc.co.uk Bolton Wanderers F.C. 21 March 2014 16 March 2014 https://web.archive.org/web/20140316064335/http://www.bwfc.co.uk/news/article/holden-sidelined-11.3.14-1414074.aspx dead It was three wins on the bounce for Wanderers, as they comprehensively won at Leeds United's Elland Road. Joe Mason scored his third in as many games and his third consecutive goal on 45 minutes as Bolton went into half-time 1–0 up. Jutkiewicz added a second; heading in a Jay Spearing free-kick and Zat Knight scored his first goal since 2010 just four minutes later. Mark Davies and André Moritz both added to the scoreline before Leeds' Matt Smith finished the scoring with a consolation goal. Bolton could not further their recent scoring record of 11 goals in three games, but kept a third clean sheet in four games away to Derby County; a game in which loanee Alan Hutton made his debut for the club. Against Brighton on 15 March, Neil Danns and Mark Davies made way for Lee Chung-Yong and Liam Trotter in midfield. A Will Buckley brace – one goal in each half – awarded the points to Brighton. For their next game, Bolton travelled to Somerset to face Yeovil Town at Huish Park. Bolton were two goals down at half-time thanks to goals from former Manchester City player Ishmael Miller and Kevin Dawson. However, Bolton retained their unbeaten status against Yeovil as a long-range effort from Lukas Jutkiewicz and a looping Zat Knight header – his second goal in three games – which went over the head of the stranded Marek Štěch completed the comeback for 10-man Whites, who had Alex Baptiste sent off after conceding a penalty which Miller squandered with Yeovil 2–1 up at the time; hitting the outside of the post. Against Blackpool at the Reebok in a midweek fixture, Bolton went into the lead early in the second half, with David Wheater heading in a Jay Spearing corner. Bolton held on for a clean sheet and three points, leaving them with only one loss in their last eight games. The next game at the Reebok Stadium came that weekend; another local derby this time against Wigan Athletic. Bolton took the lead when Lukas Jutkiewicz got a toe on Robert Hall's free-kick on 31 minutes and went into half-time with the lead still intact. Substitutions changed the game, however; Uwe Rösler brought on Manchester United loanee Nick Powell while Dougie Freedman brought on Alex Baptiste – back from a one-game suspension following his red card against Yeovil Town – in an unfamiliar holding midfield position while also shifting Medo Kamara to the wing. Powell proceeded to score on the 88th minute, firing home from Martyn Waghorn's cross, while Baptiste conceded a second penalty in two games, forcing Ádám Bogdán to rescue the point for Bolton; saving Jordi Gómez's spot-kick high to his right. April Bolton travelled to the John Smith's Stadium to face Huddersfield Town in their first game of April. Both teams hit the woodwork in the first half via Danny Ward and Lee Chung-Yong for Huddersfield and Bolton, respectively, though the game looked as if it were headed for a scoreless draw until substitute Joe Mason scored in the second minute of injury time to push Bolton up to 15th in the table. Remaining in Yorkshire for another away match, Bolton faced Doncaster Rovers at the Keepmoat Stadium on 8 April. Going two goals to the good in the first quarter of an hour, Doncaster halved the deficit when Wales midfielder David Cotterill put in a free-kick off the crossbar. No more goals were scored, leaving Bolton with two wins on the bounce and a six-match unbeaten away run. Bolton continued their winning streak against Barnsley; Jermaine Beckford rounding the 'keeper after getting on the end of a Matt Mills long ball on the stroke of half-time. Bolton couldn't continue their winning run in London; instead playing their part in a stalemate against Charlton Athletic at the Valley. It did, however, continue Bolton's seven game unbeaten away streak. On 22 April, Leicester City won the Football League Championship at the Reebok Stadium; winning 1–0 – a Lloyd Dyer strike giving them the result they needed. The score also ended Bolton's unbeaten run as they remained in 14th place. Away at Hillsborough on 26 April, Bolton raced into a three-goal lead courtesy of goals from Neil Danns, Lee Chung-Yong and Liam Trotter's first for the club. Joe Mattock reduced the deficit for the home side but no further goals were scored to give Bolton their longest unbeaten away run since 2001; going eight games unbeaten. May Bolton's final game of the season was also their last at the Reebok Stadium before it was to be renamed as the Macron Stadium from next season.BWFC strike stadium and kit deal with Macron http://www.bwfc.co.uk/news/article/club-statement-macron-announcement-24.4.14-1507087.aspx www.bwfc.co.uk Bolton Wanderers F.C. 5 May 2014 24 April 2014 https://web.archive.org/web/20140424131542/http://www.bwfc.co.uk/news/article/club-statement-macron-announcement-24.4.14-1507087.aspx dead Their opponents were Birmingham City, who required a point from the game to stay in the Championship as Doncaster Rovers would lose to champions Leicester City. Goalless at half-time, Bolton went 2–0 up with Lee Chung-Yong and Lukas Jutkiewicz. Nikola Žigić halved the deficit before Paul Caddis rescued the point three minutes into injury time to keep Birmingham up. 3 August 2013 12:15 BST Burnley 1–1 Report Bolton Wanderers Ings 26 Pratley 37 Turf Moor 12,919 Mark Clattenburg D 10 August 2013 15:00 BST Bolton Wanderers 1–1 Report Reading Pratley 14 Blackman 51 pen.

Five minutes after the restart, however, Ngog set up Jermaine Beckford to score his 17th goal in 20 FA Cup games, with the goal also meaning that he had scored in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup for the fifth season running, all for different clubs.https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/25532108 BBC Sport Bolton 2–1 Blackpool 3 January 2014 3 January 2015 The following day, Bolton were drawn against Ole Gunnar Solskjær's Cardiff City in the next round, again at home.FA Cup: Arsenal home to League One Coventry in fourth round https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/25614019 5 January 2014 BBC Sport 5 January 2014 Substitute Fraizer Campbell scored just after half-time for the Bluebirds to send Bolton out of the FA Cup; who exited at the fourth round for the second consecutive year. 3rd Round 4 January 2014 15:00 GMT Bolton Wanderers 2–1 Report Blackpool Ngog 10Beckford 51 Barkhuizen 45 Reebok Stadium 11,180 Simon Hooper W 4th Round 25 January 2014 15:00 GMT Bolton Wanderers 0–1 Report Cardiff City Campbell 50 Reebok Stadium 12,750 Jonathan Moss L League Cup Football League Cup Bolton entered the League Cup at the first round stage for the first time since the 2000–01 season, alongside all other Football League clubs except Wigan Athletic and Reading.
