Bristol Rovers verdict: Flying start, frustrating finish and indifference in between at Bolton

For the second time in three League One games, victory was snatched from Bristol Rovers' grasp deep into stoppage time as Bolton Wanderers rescued a 1-1 draw at the University of Bolton Stadium on Friday.

Just like against Fleetwood Town last month, Joey Barton's side appeared to be managing their way to victory, but they were denied at the death what would have been a memorable win at a stadium that hosted Premier League football for a decade, with Dion Charles curling home a 94th-minute equaliser.

It was a painful end to a night that started so brilliantly for the Gas, with Josh Coburn sliding home his fifth goal of the season after just 70 seconds to consign Sunday's dismal defeat to non-league Boreham Wood in the FA Cup to ancient history in football terms.
