Ex-Celtic boss Lennon favourite for Bolton job

Former Celtic boss Neil Lennon is closing on the Bolton Wanderers job.

The Daily Mail says Lennon is the new favourite to land the Bolton job after jumping to the top of chairman Phil Gartside's shortlist.

The former Celtic manager will renew talks with the Championship club on Saturday and looks set to beat off a number of stellar candidates, including Chris Hughton, to the post.

Currently propping up the English second tier after winning just one league game this season, Bolton have been looking for a new manager since parting company with Scot Dougie Freedman last month.
