Bolton Wanderers and Sheffield Wednesday eked out a game of two halves at the Reebok tonight - a draw was probably a fair result, with both teams enjoying lots of the ball in midfield, but both unable to make anything of it.

From a Wednesday point of view, Barry Bannan was Barry Bannan in that he had plenty of possession and did nothing with it, whilst Wanderers again tried to include striker and ex-Wednesday man Gary Madine to no avail.

Ben Amos was solid in goal, Dean Moxey, Prince-Désir Gouano, Lawrie Wilson and Derik Osede again showed what a competent backline they were.

Mark Davies failed to hit the heights of the weekend's Wolverhampton Wanderers game, whilst the less said about Liam Feeney the better.
