While I liked Mjallby, the team had gone off the rails before that.

I don't know how!

Got 89.

Point of order, I think it's only out of 136, Medo (/Mohammed Kanara) and Derik (/Derik Osede) appear twice.

Most appearances I didn't get was good old Wardrobe. Must have blanked him out for some reason.
Can't take a screengrab? What are you, 60? :D

Congrats, that's more than I'd get, and I published the bastard thing. Noted on dupes, I'll edit.
I know how to take one, I just don't know how to get it on here!

I was surprised too. Lots of names at the bottom end I don't remember even reading their names!

Sorry - not personal differences but "reasons"

Excellent work! I didn't do very well mind. Kevin McNaughton and Casado. Two players whose names I remember but I can't recall a single other thing of either of them!

McNaughton was a decent full-back. Grey-haired lad. Could play either side but better on the right IIRC.

Casado was one of Lennon's anyone-will-do deadline-day supermarket-sweep arrivals. Left-back, Spanish, loved to tackle but not always well, got sent off and never played again.

I'm on a desktop at the mo but I can manage it with an iPhone 5 - released, fittingly enough given the subject, in autumn 2012.

Are you pressing the Place Inline button? I know it's a bit fiddly on a phone.

Remember him now. He was a good player. Loaned from Cardiff? Shows me my memory isn't what it was. Up to about 1992 I could tell you the result and scorers of any of our matches going back to 1976 (the chicks loved it) & usually get the crowd within a few hundred. On your quiz I forgot folk who played last week!

I haven't got a clue what a place in line button is, or where to find it. I can link URLs through the three dots at the top, share and copy, but that doesn't work for images.

In full editor it's underneath. Big blue button. I couldn't see it for the trees.

I'm in Full Editor.
There are two Huge blue buttons underneath:
+ Options
+ Attachments

Click on options and ... Nothing.
Click on Attachments... And it turns on my camera. Which then lets me take a photo. Whoopee do. I now have another photo on my camera I still can't upload....

I was in conversation with someone quite younger than myself, he mentioned this was the worst squad to represent Bolton he'd experienced. I mentioned he obviously hadn't much idea of the team that dropped to the old fourth division. Since engaging in that conversation I have to ask myself, was that team the worst to represent Bolton? come to think of it, that squad managed 70 goals.

Never before in my years of watching Bolton have I ever been as bored. I've never torn up a season ticket like this season and never become disinterested like I am now. It will take a massive effort to get me back, I sincerely hope at some point I will and be able to walk away from the ground satisfied knowing I have seen a decent game and a good performance from a Bolton team. As things are, it will be a long time before I will be able to say so.


The past few years I have been watching Atherton colls, I went last night and witnessed two good sides playing damn good footy. Colls are a few games away from gaining promotion to the Northern Premier league, something of an achievement for a team from humble surroundings. A decent crowd witnessed colls winning 4-1 and maintaining top spot.

As for the Wanderers, I do fear the worst, hopefully the Andersons will be shifted and someone with a bit of loose change will take over. Lets hop so.

I officially scored 93 but I'm claiming 94 because although I knew about Kirchhoff the spelling of his surname defeated me.

I remembered Clough embarrassingly late, though Liam Trotter was my most "high-profile" omission. Weirdly, I remembered the likes of Giles Coke, Harry Charsley and Tom Youngs yet completely forgot about Jason Lowe.
