[Always hopeful]

Some time ago I discovered that if you enter 'Bolton British Pathe' into the search bar on Youtube, you can find quite a few old clips of Bolton at Burnden and elsewhere. There's an absolute belter of a video of the White Horse final, featuring the build-up, highlights and an unfortunately silent interview with the victorious captain Joe Smith, which can be found here, and then there's this one which shows the 1926 FA Cup final. Some of the matches from the earlier rounds of the cup in the 20's and 50's have also been uploaded.

My favourite, however, has to be this one from a game at Burnden against the now defunct South Shields in 1926. Check out that mascot eight seconds in...

Check out the commentary at 0:55 on this one. Sounds familiar.

It's facing the original Burnden Stand, which made for the newun upon the sale of David Jack to Arsenal.

Brucie Boy - ITK!

Thirty six years to the day since this. The first game that I ever attended, the first and still the best goal that I have ever seen live!

"Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those that tresspass against us." Sometimes very hard to do.

[Worthy4England]

I'll stick with not being forgiven on my trespasses and feck the wankers, thank you.

This picture was taken 10 years ago today as we beat Everton in Hierro's last game. And we only needed 10 men

feck me - how the mighty have fallen.

Bad man, Brucie.

What a squad that 04-05 season had.

That season had:

Jaidi, Speed, Hierro, Les Ferdinand, Diouf, Candela, Jussi, Laville, TB Haim, Campo, Okocha, Pedersen, Stelios, Gardner, N'Gotty.

Even the following were under contract for the season (despite leaving early on): Jardel, Djorkaeff


No wonder we finished sixth that year.

How soon they forget the two Kevins.

I thought Djorkaeff ran out of contract in June, wanted more than we offered and went up the Devil's Highway to Ewood?

Indeed, for all of three games.

I thought it was because BSA's retinue of Quacks said that one of his knees was about to blow - which it did.
