IAN Evatt saw his promotion-chasing Bolton side surrender three points on a bitterly cold day in London and admitted: “We got what we deserved.”

The League One hopefuls started the match two points off the top of the table and with two matches in hand, and should have taken the lead in the first half when leading scorer Dion Charles sent his header against an upright.

But the Trotters paid the price when O’s striker Dan Agyei netted after 54 minutes to record his third goal in as many matches and stretch the O’s unbeaten league run to five matches, a run that includes four victories.

“I’m very disappointed and I think we got what we deserved,” said Wanderers boss Evatt.

“They didn’t create lots, but played the conditions better and showed more fight, more determination and a willingness to do the ugly side of the game better than what we did.

“Some of our decision-making and execution was baffling after Tuesday when it was the opposite.

“I made five substitutions, but I wish I could have made 11. If I could have made 11 changes then I would have. I wasn’t happy with anybody. We made the wrong choices and showed the wrong body language.”
