Bolton Wanderers have been denied by the crossbar as they played out a goalless first half against travelling Huddersfield Town in the Championship this afternoon.
Bolton man Darren Pratley sought to make use of some early possessional dominance for the hosts, but he saw his speculative effort fly just wide of the post after five minutes.
Town's first major chance of the opening half was to fall to Mark Hudson, as he connected with Sean Scannell's cross only to head wide of the right post.
It was Neil Lennon's men, however, who were to be denied most agonisingly when Craig Davies turned his effort from the centre of the box straight onto the Huddersfield bar, having been found by Pratley's teasing ball.
Town fans thought that an opener was in sight just before the half-time whistle blew, when Nahki Wells produced a left-footed shot towards the bottom corner of goal, leaving Alex Smithies to make good ground to produce the save and leave things 0-0 at the interval.
