The Munich match thread

[Bruce Rioja]

Incredible how that team, got that result.

Exactly what I thought, Boris. Some achievement. So, since then, BM have gone on to do the treble and we've played Yeovil in a league match.

[bobo the clown]

I had to look up the team ... as more of those in the photo than I'm comfortable with I didn't recognise.

Bolton: Al Habsi, Andrew O'Brien, Cid, Michalik, Gardner, Alonso (Giannakopoulos 56), Nolan, Guthrie, McCann, Braaten (Teymourian 77), Davies.
Subs Not Used: Walker, Speed, Harsanyi, Sinclair, Sissons.

Booked: Davies, Braaten, Cid, Andrew O'Brien.

Goals: Gardner 8, Davies 82.

Feckinell: has SKD got a long goatee in that photo?

Yeah, and Dreads!

I didn't get Alonso, and missed Nobby too!

[Bruce Rioja]

I didn't get Alonso

Ditto

I know it's all about results but Megson got Dog's abuse for his team selection for Madrid but possibly the most prestigious match of the past 40 years had us playing Cid, Michalik, Guthrie, Braaten and have Adranik, Sissons, Sinclair, Harsanyi there too.


... & again, may I repeat, Cid ffs.

[Bruce Rioja]

Mikel Alonso - known only as Xabi Alonso's brother. Another one, like Cid, that was forced into early retirement through being absolutely shite.

Sh!t. That one slipped my gaze.

How the hell didn't we get utterly pasted ?

(apart from Ribery being subbed off after having a field day against us).

[thebish]

i think the ribery sub was the very thing that made it possible... they thought they had it won...

[TANGODANCER]

Jason Bourne's still very confused. He thinks he plays for Bolton.

[CrazyHorse]

Megson really was a wanker with that team selection.

[thebish]

wahayyy!! meggo's back in the room!

[Prufrock]

I notice that Hoss saves himself for the big games when it comes to starting match threads.

[officer_dibble]

Gerald cid v frank ribery. And we drew! I was absolutely battered so cant remember much...hence dragging the match thread back up .

We clearly used up 10 years of luck with this result. In 4 years time we may get some good luck!

But yeah. Look at where we were then and now... Still , we 'll be back!

Too right.
Big games deserve big names. You'll never see me starting threads about teams like Chesterfield or Plymouth or Arsenal.

We used up two minutes of unbelievable luck when their manager decided to take Ribery off.

[a1]

Megson really was a wanker with that team selection.

he'd only bin here about 10 minutes. and they were still in the bottom three. til probably the last month of the season. fcukin miracle.

that season were top.

*owen coyle clapping gif*

[CrazyHorse]

We've been in the bottom three a million times, and will be there a million more. But we'll only ever play a European game in Munich that single solitary time.
I'm not sure you even know what point it is you're trying to make yerself now a1...I think you're suggesting Meggo wasn't a wanker and that we should bring back Coyle to give the team the clap. Or something.

[CAPSLOCK]

No, he's stating we played an understrength team

As we did at Belgrade

As we did in Lisbon

As we did in our first ever European away game under Fatman

It worked, we stayed up

Til Coyle sorted all that shit
