Bolton Wanderers defender Gethin Jones' Watford admission ahead of pre-season friendly clash

Bolton Wanderers vice-captain Gethin Jones insists that he and his team mates are not looking at today's pre-season friendly against Watford as a training ground clash but as another opportunity to test themselves against Championship opposition.

Wanderers take on the Hornets this afternoon at the Championship side's London Colney training ground for a behind closed doors clash. It will be their fifth pre-season friendly ahead of the League One season beginning at the end of July.

The Whites haves beaten non-league opposition in the form of Longridge Town and Chorley, before drawing against Stockport County and losing narrowly to Wigan Athletic over the weekend. Charlie Wyke's penalty handed the Latics the win after Elias Kachunga's missed spot kick in a clash which Wanderers were the more dominant side over the course of 90 minutes.
