Former Bolton Wanderers midfielder Fabrice Muamba sent a message of encouragement to the Trotters after their victory against MK Dons yesterday, which has drawn an emotional response from fans of the club.
After missing a penalty earlier in the game, on-loan striker Daryl Murphy scored a 93rd-minute winner to grab their third consecutive victory in League One.
The result means Bolton have finally moved into positive points after starting the season with a 12-point deduction.

The Trotters remain 12 points adrift of safety but they have seen an upturn in their fortunes recently.
After their third consecutive league win, Muamba sent a message to the club and its fans on Twitter.
The 31-year-old joined the Trotters in July 2008 and made 148 appearances for the North West club in total.
Muamba had cemented a place in the Bolton first-team by the 2011/12 season but was forced to retire due to medical issues after collapsing on the pitch.
It appears that almost a decade on Muamba still feels a close connection to the club.
Those feelings seem to be mutual as the former midfielder's message drew an emotional response from Trotters fans.
