Bolton boss Ian Evatt on MK Dons, Cheltenham postponed, team choices & Portsmouth question mark

The Whites make the trip to take on the Dons following the postponement of all EFL action due to the passing away of Queen Elizabeth II. Matches were called off as a mark of respect to the late monarch, who died at the age of 96 on Thursday afternoon at Balmoral in Scotland.
