First off, I'd like to apologize for the delay in (what is normally) our Monday Set Pieces. With the holiday weekend here in the United States and the Gary Speed developments, it's been tough to concentrate on anything Bolton Wanderers. That said, let's see what we missed in the whimsical world of the Whites this past weekend.

In the middle of an international break, Bolton Wanderers are again undefeated for two weeks straight. How about that? Last week was a bit of a slow news week for the mighty Trotters but as the Premier League is once again around the corner, there's plenty going on in the world of the Whites.

How sweet it is to have beaten Stoke City by a massive 5-0 to get our first home win of the season. We covered as much as we possibly could in yesterday's match report but here's the stuff from the weekend that slipped by us like every opposition player through our defense until now:

Another week following a Bolton loss and we're all trying to look on the bright side. Out from the ashes of the fans unhappiness after Swansea came the resounding shouts of "Bolton 'Til I Die" and that the fans are still largely behind Owen Coyle with confidence that this team can turn it around.

This week's Monday Set Pieces features some quotes from Owen Coyle, some more quotes from Gary Cahill, a dumb opinion via the Twitter, some idiots that claim to understand the Premier League but clearly don't, and Trotters searching for new talent.

So, it's the international break. While I am not one of it's many critics, and I (masochistically, considering my allegiance with England) enjoy international football, it does mean that news is a bit sparse on the Bolton front. And by sparse, I mean every single Bolton story published in the last 48 hours is Cahill related. This is not an exaggeration, and if you're a long term reader, you know how I feel about writing more about Cahill. I've published my opinions on him and various transfer rumours involving him ad nauseam. So I'm going to do it again! And write about some stories from last week that we missed out on. Hit the jump for a round up of Wandereriness.

Without much further ado, we invite you to hit the jump to keep reading.
