hello. I've been a Bolton-holic since I can remember, what has attracted me more to Bolton than any other EPL club is their fighting-nature and their ability to stay top-flight football despite lacking the Galactico-type names. They've always hit me as an underdog-type team which is really inspiring. I've always admired that about them. Also, I love their international flavour, which is always nice to see. Also, one of my favourite players, Okocha, who is marvellous, played at Bolton, more reason to support the Trotters! I hope this year we can get into Europe and perhaps even edge-out the top-4 (Chel$ki, Man-Ure, Arsenal, and Liverpool), despite signing such big namers.

Viva Trotters!

No, I'm from Toronto, Canada. Been watching Bolton a lot throughout the years as they get a lot of play-time on TV on Fox Sports Channel.

Thanks for the Welcome!

Hello from me!

We have another resident Canadian, he'll be along directly, I'm sure.

What's the reason you support Bolton. Is it a family connection?

Believe it or not, I don't care about the Leafs or Hockey in general. lol, I know, I'm the ONLY CANADIAN in the world not to care about hockey (although I played lots of street hockey as a youngster, now ask me about the Raptors and I can tell you about them ;-)).

Just curious as to how you got started. You state you are, but not why you are. Most people have a first memory of being taken to a game, for instance.
