GOALSCORING legend Brett Ormerod is ready to start a new career as kit man at Bolton.
Ormerod, 48, was a famed finisher for Blackpool, Southampton and Preston before packing in.
He has been coaching and doing radio work.
But now Ormerod is to answer an SOS from former team-mate Ian Evatt at the League One club.
The pair played together in the Premier League for Ian Holloway‘s Blackpool – with ex-Tangerines Stephen Crainey and Matt Gilks already at the club.
As Blackpool players they spent one season in the top flight and were relegated on the final day.
Ormerod’s second spell at Blackpool ended in 2012 following one year back in the Championship.
He went on to play for Rochdale, Wrexham, Padiham and Bamber Bridge, before he hung up his boots in 2016.
His best goalscoring season came in his first stint in Blackpool in the 2000/01 season.
He netted 27 times in 49 games to help Blackpool to promotion from Division Three – then the fourth tier.

They went up through the play-offs, with Ormerod then scoring 20 goals in the third-tier the following season.
At Southampton, where he scored 19 times in 119 games, he reached the FA Cup final as Arsenal beat Saints 1-0 at the Millenium Stadium.
Meanwhile, Bolton sit eighth in the third tier, outside the play-off places on goal difference.
They are unbeaten in their last three games, following up wins over Fleetwood and Blackpool with a draw against Cambridge on Tuesday.
