    The long-running saga that is Bolton Wanderers' recent history could be drawing to a close.

    Having finally paid the playing squad their overdue February wages, owner Ken Anderson says tonight could be his last game as owner.

    A takeover led by businessman Parminder Basran, alongside businesswoman Sharon Brittan and entrepreneur Jeff Thomas is set to go through.

    "Hopefully, the takeover will be completed later this week and the new owners will be in place and will be given the time and opportunity to take the club forward," he wrote on the club website., external

    Anderson added that he believes he has done a "reasonable job in trying to control costs at the club" but acknowledged the financial issues and "apologised unreservedly" for delays to wage payments.

    "Cash flow has always been a problem at the club, both before and since I became involved, and if it wasn't for (former owner) Ed Davies and my limited financial support, I can assure you things would have been far worse," added Anderson.
