Bolton Wanderers to visit Mansfield Town in pre-season friendly

Mansfield Town will play Bolton Wanderers in a pre-season friendly on Saturday, July 16 (3pm kick off).

It is the first pre-season match announced by the Stags.

Bolton were relegated from the Championship last season and will travel to the One Call Stadium as they prepare for their first season in the third tier of English football since 1993.

The consortium Sports Shield, headed by former Bolton striker Dean Holdsworth, purchased the Trotters in March 2016 after previous owner Eddie Davies wiped off over £170m worth of debt owed to him.

Ticket prices for the game will be announced in due course.
