(Reuters) - Bolton Wanderers and Bury's opening League One (third-tier) fixtures could be suspended if they do not furnish evidence of their financial viability by 1600 GMT on Monday, the English Football League (EFL) has said.

Bolton, who were relegated from the second-tier Championship last season, have been in administration since May while promoted Bury must provide the EFL with a viable plan to settle their debts after entering an "insolvency event".
