Football Bolton Wanderers have attracted a humorous reaction on Twitter after naming 10 trailists in the side's starting lineup for a friendly game.

The Championship side posted their starting lineup for a game against Liverpool non-league side Marine FC with a similar look.

18-year-old goalie Jack Turner was the only player on Bolton's books to start, with 10 trialists named in the starting lineup. Another three official Bolton players were on the bench.

#BWFC XI to face @MarineAFC: Turner, Trialist, Trialist, Trialist, Trialist, Trialist, Trialist, Trialist, Trialist, Trialist, Trialist. 🐘 🏰
