Another liquid that always rather bizarrley tastes better out of a glass bottle than out of anything else.

Love it.

As we got older we moved on from that. After making sure the shopkeeper had gone back into his living quarters, two of us would enter the shop thus activating the bell. One would grab two x fourpacks of ale off of the counter and would leave the shop, with the other one closing the door behind him. Then, when the shopkeeper came through to the shop there'd be one of us still in the shop waiting to by some paltry item.

I feel better for having shared this with you, I've been carrying the guilt around for 30 years. :D

Tickets available on the gate for anyone undecided.

£15.

Surely worth it for a nights entertainment.

I think now is the time you should make amends to that shopkeeper. Restore the Karmic Balance.

It'll be reet.

He much prefers bigger clubs with Premiership reputations. He might know one or two of our players by name.

Just checking (cos can't be arsed being on hold for 20 mins) is this pay on the gat tonight? Might not be able to make the ticket office unless absolutely have to!
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Yes its pay on the gate for adult tickets.

Have to go to their ticket office for concessions.

Yes, sold sround 2000. Pathetic really. Exiles & paraplegics aside, I just can’t understand why any self respecting Bolton fan would not be itching to go to Turf Moor tonight.

It’s cheap, its local, it’s not on TV and the atmosphere is gonna be electric!

Out of 14,000 ST holders, we have only sold about 15% of that number (yet somehow everyone I know is going tonight?) plus, id be willing to bet only half of that are actually St holders anyway! It just doesn’t compute to me how somebody would be fanatical enough to fork out for a ST, yet have no intention of going tonight?

However, judging by the amount of posts ive read here and elsewhere about paying on the gate, im optimistic a fair few more will be turning up tonight.
