About Alex Lawes

A long-suffering Bolton Wanderers supporter first and foremost, who manages to balance the heartache of the Whites with being a freelance sports writer. Masquerading as nuanced and objective but always having a bias or ulterior motive behind the writing. 

Favorite Sports Moment

Favourite sporting moment is in the profile banner. Kevin Davies scoring past Oliver Khan to ensure it finished Bayern Munich 2-2 Bolton Wanderers at the Allianz Arena.

Favorite Sports Team

The Wanderers with similar heartache for both the England football and cricket teams, as well as Lancashire. 

Favorite Player

Super Kevin Davies, naturally, or, because he is the greatest footballer in the world, Harry Kane. A theme might be developing.
