Bolton Follower in Perth, Western Australia

Post by AussieBoltonFollower » Tue Jan 20, 2009 1:38 pm

Hey guys, thanks for giving me the opportunity to support Bolton from Australia - I've purchased a Wanderers kit from eBay and I've been wearing it around - the quality is fantastic.

The only sign of another Bolton fan here I found was a small black car plastered in a Wanderers logo on the back window in Hillarys, Perth.

I'm 25, male and can't wait to see Elmander produce some fine goals later on this season :)

Cheers

Rich

Welcome Rich - I think Faninoz is from the Perth area, though he is a tad older than you. So why a Bolton supporter?

Hi Rich (although you'll get called ABF from your screen name.) Welcome to the site. We have quite a few resident supporters based outside UK on this site , so you're not alone. :wink:

I think there may be a couple of Australia-based Trotters on here, and as mentioned, quite a few overseas fans, so you'll be fine here (especially when you discover the threads showing livestreams to the matches).

Anyway, get stuck in on the boards and do tell us what drew you to Bolton!

You'll find prenty to do on here. Have a go in the prediction forum, give your opinions on everything not football related on General Banter, laugh at all the other clubs in Other football, gander at the front page, write an article/match report, or just debate yourself daft in The Trotters forum.

You'll never want to leave :D

In fact, I can't, they have me locked in here. I can't leave until I've reached 1000,000 posts :(

G'day, AFB, although I'm on the other side of the island.

There is a number of BWFC idiots on your side though - mainly Glory supporters (what a silly name!).

Whatever, tuck your stool (don't polish it) up to the bar and have a chat.

Cheers - your shout by the way. ;)

I actually was playing FIFA 2007 and they were the first Premier League team I managed in the "Manager Mode" game and after a few games I really wanted to find out who these guys were in real life, like Nolan, Anelka (in the team then) and a few others so I started watching them on the internet. I soon realised that Premier League Football is actually very exciting so I kept following the guys to see if they are as good in real life as in the game.

It took off from there now I'm subscribed to Foxtel to watch the Premier League games and I regularly keep in touch with what the team is up to and how things are going in real life.

A bit of a weird introduction but at least I'm honest :)

Listen buddy, it makes a refreshing change from 'I'm from Bolton' or 'Me dad supports 'em'. It doesn't matter how you get to The Whites, as long as you do! I bet there's a few who think you're a bit weird for supporting Wanderers when you had the pick of the Prem! Suffice to say, you've chosen well... but be prepared for crushing lows and unbelievable highs!
