Rising in Wembley's Glow: A Bolton Wanderers Tale - Bolton vs Oxford. 18th May 2024, 4.15pm

[DJBlu]

In Wembley's hallowed halls they stand,
The Wanderers with hearts so grand.
Their journey long, their spirits high,
Bolton's pride beneath the sky.

Through trials faced and battles won,
Their courage shines like morning sun.
With every step, they've dared to dream,
In Wembley's glow, their hopes redeem.

In jerseys white and proud they gleam,
A team united, a potent team.
Through sweat and tears, they've earned their place,
In Wembley's grace, they'll leave a trace.

For in this grand and storied ground,
Where legends rise and dreams are found,
Bolton Wanderers, with faith untold,
In Wembley's embrace, their story's told.

With every pass and every goal,
They'll seize the moment, heart and soul.
With fans behind, a roaring sea,
Their spirit soars, forever free.

So let the banners fly on high,
As Wanderers reach for the sky.
In Wembley's light, they'll write their tale,
Bolton's courage shall never fail.

For in this hallowed place they stand,
The Wanderers with dreams so grand.
Their journey long, their spirits bright,
In Wembley's glow, they'll reach new heights.

We're in the east end of Wembley again.
Come On You White Men!!!

Is that the other end to last season? If so meaning we get the Green Man? Will be belting in there if so, hopefully the weather plays ball.

It is, it's also the one Peterborough had this year too.

East end is the same one we had last time.

Iles: "WANDERERS have been told how many tickets they have been allocated at Wembley – and that they have been drawn on the ‘lucky’ side of the stadium for the play-off final. The club will receive 36,550 seats for the Saturday, May 18 showpiece, and will take up the ‘East End’ – just as they did in April 2023 when they beat Plymouth Argyle in the Papa Johns Trophy."

I don’t think anyone needs to worry about getting a ticket. Can’t see us selling more than about 25K.

They're a bit pricey but I think we'll shift a fair few.

25K I think will be a fabulous effort at those prices and with shy of two weeks notice.

It's the direction that semi might take that's the worrying bit

[BWFC_Insane]

Good semi this. Competitive.

[sonicthewhite]

Get in Oxford. I really don't want Posh progressing.

Nailed on Posh to go through for me. But Oxford have kept them honest.

[officer_dibble]

Yeah, would prefer Oxford. My gut says Peterborough will do it - might need extra time.
