Ian Evatt celebrated his 100th win as Bolton Wanderers boss as Leyton Orient were beaten to end a run of back-to-back League One defeats.

Evatt, an age-group cricketer for Warwickshire, was marooned on 99 not out after losses to Portsmouth and Bristol Rovers.

But, he finally reached his ton as Bolton raced into a 3-0 lead in the opening 10 minutes and then clung on despite a second-half Orient revival.

Josh Dacres-Cogley netted after three minutes to put Wanderers in front. Orient fell further behind four minutes later as Northern Ireland international Dion Charles registered his 16th goal of the season for club and country.

Charles then turned provider for George Thomason whose first shot was saved by Sol Brynn, only for the midfielder to net the rebound.

Former Trotter Darren Pratley was one of two substitutes introduced at half-time to give Orient a more competitive edge.

Shaq Forde reduced his side's arrears after 55 minutes and Theo Archibald scored a spectacular second five minutes later, but Bolton held on for Evatt to seal the landmark victory.
