Description

Bolton conceded five goals for a fourth game in a row, yet were still were roared on by a big army of fans as they lost at Gillingham in their first game since being saved by a midweek takeover.

Within 90 minutes of the game ending, Wanderers announced the appointment of Bolton-born former Rochdale and Barnsley boss Keith Hill as their new manager.

But not before on-loan Hearts midfielder Olly Lee had reintroduced himself by scoring twice for the Gills on his return to the League One club.

Lee scored in each half, interwoven with Connor Ogilvie's 27th-minute left-footed shot, Brandon Hanlan's 54th-minute goal and a Jordan Boon own goal.

It was a first victory for Gillingham under their new manager Steve Evans, but his first thoughts were for Bolton.
