Wanderers Legend of our lifetime

Post by ovenmitboy » Sun May 29, 2011 2:55 pm

Any chance you guys could help me out with a little research. It is in no doubt that Nat Lofthouse is THE Bolton Legend. But I never got to see him play. So I am trying to find the Bolton Legend of our lifetime and to do so I have made a quick poll. I have split the poll into decades and will do a final poll once the winner of each decade has been decided. It shouldn't take too long to fill out and any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...

I'd forgotten how bad it was

Thompson and Caldwell were probably as good as it got

Was only a nipper myself in the 80s and I must admit that when doing my research trying to fill the spots for the 80s was more difficult. No doubt who ever wins that decade will get trounced in the final. Although Peter Reid did date my aunt for a bit - so I'm told every time I'm back in Bolton. So thats gotta count for something. Thanks for voting guys.

He's getting votes and is currently leading the 80s section :conf: But I only really started watching football in the 90s so I didn't vote in that section.

You could probably run a poll on that too.

Has Peter Reid ever tried to date anyone in your family...

Simple Yes/No should cover it.

No, I think you need a 'probably' option in there too, squire. :wink:

You're right.

We'll change it to

Yes/Probably.

Surely Davo should be in the list of legends for the 2000s? Who is this EIDER Gudjohnsen?

Probably better to take away the needless 'no' option
