Quotes of the week
Ricardo Gardner has dropped the biggest hint yet he could sign a contract extension at The Reebok.
The long-serving Jamaica international has been with Bolton since 1998 after impressing in the World Cup finals in France.
Although Gardner is out of contract this summer, he has issued a rallying cry to his team-mates to carry their impressive end of season form into the 2008/09 campaign.
Gary Megson's Trotters were all but certain of relegation with the end of the season approaching, but a superb burst of form saw them move clear of the drop zone.
"It was a hard year for us, but we dug deep and showed our spirit and fight in the end," he told the Bolton News.
"In the last four games everyone showed what they were made of and ground out the results we needed. It was a huge relief.
"Next season we'll just need to start fresh and get back to the things that we do well as a team."
