The telling aspect of Bolton's season was that when a team is relegated, typically a few players stand out and secure moves to Premier League sides, either to teams being promoted or even to those contending for titles or European spots. For instance, Jordan Pickford moved to Everton after Sunderland's relegation in 2016/17, Shaqiri joined Liverpool following Stoke's drop in 2017/18, and Wijnaldum and Robertson secured moves to Liverpool from Hull and Newcastle respectively after their teams' relegations. Moreover, managers sometimes ascend to larger Premier League clubs; Roberto Martinez moved to Everton after Wigan's relegation in 2012/13, and Marco Silva took over at Watford following Hull's relegation in 2016/17. However, none of Bolton's players, except Jaaskelainen who joined West Ham, managed to move to Premier League clubs, which speaks volumes about the team's struggles that season.
@@alexander92179 Some players were aware moments before Aguero scored the decisive goal; the QPR bench's eruption indicated their knowledge, and the QPR fans present knew as well. Niall Quinn, during the Sky Commentary, noted, "QPR fans are jumping up and down; maybe there's more favorable news for them." Similarly, Steve McManaman, commentating with Iain Darke on an international feed, observed that the QPR bench celebrated wildly just before Aguero's goal, aware that Bolton had not won. However, players like Nedum Onuoha, Shaun Derry, and Shaun Wright Phillips were unaware on the pitch, initially believing Aguero's goal had relegated them, until they saw 3000 QPR fans celebrating Aguero's goal. Martin Tyler mentioned in the documentary "93:20" on City's Official RUclips channel that a member of Mark Hughes' backroom staff was at the game, tracking the score and communicating it to the QPR bench at the Etihad, which likely informed their celebrations. Bolton, on the other hand, could only blame themselves for squandering a 2-0 lead against West Brom the previous week, with West Brom equalizing in the final minutes through James Morrison, and Djibril Cisse's last-minute winner against Stoke compounded their woes, as a victory would have lifted them out of the bottom three.
As we were leaving our seats at ft, Man City were losing. By the time we got to the exits, they were winning. Stoke were on cruise control Bolton didn't do enough I think assuming QPR had won
11:07 To sum it up, yes, Bogdan was fouled by Walters, but Bolton had been a weak side since the 5th matchweek, hovering just above or within the relegation zone. Alan Hansen summed it up, home form is crucial for teams at the bottom. Bolton had only 4 wins at home all season, the second-worst home record, with only Wolves having fewer wins with three. In contrast, QPR won16 points from a possible 18 at home during the run in, beating Arsenal, Tottenham, and Liverpool when they came back from 2-0 to stun Sir Kenny Dalglish's side and all that meant that QPR along with Norwich and Swansea, completed a trio of promoted teams to avoid relegation that season the second time that had happened in Premier League history.
Yes you're right mate, bolton paid the price for their shocking home form and qprs remarkable late season home surge 5 home wins in a row, and Bolton suffered relegation from it, west brom home game for Bolton killed them, 2 0 up and then blew the lead to 2 2 for me relegated them that day
@@classicsportclassictiyl8547 I mean they had lost elmander and Daniel sturrige in that summer cause they were brilliant for bolton, and their departure hurt bolton a lot and hurt their firepower upfront
Poor refereeing sent Bolton to Championship. Walters clearly fouled Bogdan when he was heading the ball. And it was never a penalty. There is a contact but Crouch went down so easily.
it wasn't this game that sent Bolton down its over the course of the season and as Lineker, Shearer and Hansen said at the end Bolton's home form sent them down only won 4 games at home that season only Wolves had won fewer home games.
@@savastepeli4210 also QPR had a goal chalked off against Bolton when it had clearly gone over the line so you could say things even itself out over time
haha bolton this the revenge you when you guys beat leeds 2004 now leeds back to pem you guys sitting on league 2 next season you guys will get relegated from league 2

That first goal didn’t relegate us to the championship, nor league 1. That sent us to league 2. We never recovered from that.
until this season thanks to Ian Evatt and Sharron Brittain
TBF tho it shouldn’t have counted as the ball was in the hands of the keeper already
From Prem to League 2. Peak times for Bolton and their fans are crestfallen.
Like Bolton, Wigan Relegated From The Premier League To League Two
poor officiating, bolton shouldve won to put pressure on qpr so that qpr wouldve tried harder against man city
The qpr players didn't know about it at the time only the fans

@@classicsportclassictiyl8547 Bolton shouldve get 3 points against WBA. They wouldve jump out of bottom of the table.
@@shuaili1457 correct but they blew it
@@classicsportclassictiyl8547 I hate QPR and Stoke City. Cause they are playing rudely. Stoke city broken Ramsay's leg. QPR beat Derby at Wembly.
