Founder members of the football league, Bolton Wanderers (Once known as Christ Church FC,founded in 1874) are one of 7 original members to have never won English football's most prestigious honour. Despite never having been league champions, Wanderers have finished third on three occasions. However, league consistency has been a long time coming as the last of these achievements came in 1925. They have spent the vast majority of the last 30 years in the lower divisions. Bolton's major success has come in the FA Cup, a trophy they have won on four occasions, the last being a 2-0 victory over Manchester United in 1958.
In 2000–01 Bolton were promoted back to the Premier League after beating Preston North End in the play-off final.Bolton struggled in the following two seasons, but survived in the Premier League. The 2001–02 season began with a shock as they destroyed Leicester 5–0 at Filbert Street to go top of the table. They won their next two games, including a narrow victory over Liverpool, and were suddenly the Premiership's pace setters. Despite a memorable 2–1 win away at Manchester United, becoming the first team since the formation of the Premier League to come from behind and win a league game at Old Trafford, they went into an awful slump during the middle of the season and needed a Fredi Bobic hat-trick against Ipswich Town to survive. Despite losing the final three games, 16th place was secured. The arrivals of experienced international players Bobic and Youri Djorkaeff proved vital, as did the emergence of Kevin Nolan and Michael Ricketts.
