Stelios is my friend. He told me a lot about this year... He was very angry when he did not play from the beggining at the last match. But he want to stay. He has his own house, he does not want to leave. He just want to play, especcially when many other players are missing like against Middlesbrough...
He loves Bolton, believe me....
Euxton, is near Bolton? I'll be in Mantchester in Friday, and i attend to go straight to the training camp, from the airport! Please, give more informations...

1. Call taxi
2. Say "Euxton"
3. Get out taxi
4. Get escorted out of Training ground

Euxton is north of Bolton, toward Preston. If Stelios knows you're coming he can probably arrange with BWFC to let you in.

I have no idea but the train to Chorley sounds a much cheaper idea (or do you own a shipping line?).

Hehehehehe, no, but the problem is that my flight is arriving at 10.40 on Friday and the training is started 10.30, finish around 12.00. So-if the distance is about 50 klm- i have to take a taxi!!!

Train from Manchester Airport to Preston.
Train from Preston to Euxton.

That journey takes 1.5 hours.

I don't know how close Euxton station is to the training ground.

They only do an hour and a half the day before the match?!

Ok, so there's no need for any real exertion, but what about running thorugh set pieces etc?!

Bill, welcome to the site. I have a couple of Greek friends and they think a lot of Stelios.

My feeling is that you will not be able to make it Euxton in time to see any training.

Get a train to Euxton Balshaw Lane, it's a bit poor of Stelios to invite you to training but not tell you where it is. If you get a taxi, it's pronounced Exton.

If you ask me it's a bit poor of Stelios to invite you and not arrange a taxi to come and pick you up!

I get the impression it might be more that he doesn't want to keep Stelios hanging around?

Thanks!!!

Thanks for welcome! About the training, as far as i now, all teams do the same time (1-1.30 hours) at the last training. They streching and only analyse the other team.
