I remember Collymore getting the first punch in against Todd (who was a relative unknown at the time), and then Stan the Man realised he was in trouble when Toddy came back with a few roundhouses of his own! Brilliant!

So long as the definition of B'stards is that they were a bit hard ... Sir John of Byrom had a bit of previous here. To the point that, after one feisty match v Liverpool Admin FC he had had so many run-ins with legendary hard-man, Tommy Pox-Face Smith, that the two agreed to meet outside on the car park post match.
He turned up, but Smith didn't !!

My dad worships Byrom and has told me many stories of his exploits. This one doesn't surprise me either.bobo the clown wrote:So long as the definition of B'stards is that they were a bit hard ...

I'd love to believe this story but when would Byrom have played for us against Liverpool & Smith? I'm assuming some cup game or friendly I cant remember (PT's testimonial?) but I'm sure Byrom never played in the top flight for us.Zulus Thousand of em wrote:I remember that one with Poxface.

Sept 27, 1967. Bolton v Liverpool in the League Cup.
We won 3-2.
Byrom & Smith were both playing. This happened in that game. Byrom took the piss out of Smith throughout & he got v v tetchy about it. Smith tried to flatten JB several times & he dodged them every time. In one case he actively jumped over a slide tackle and landed, quite deliberately, on Smith's ankles. He got up to attack him, but was stopped by his team mates.
This led to lots of finger pointing by poxy-chops and JB standing with a huge grin, hands on hips and nodding at Smith. That led to the "see you later" stuff.

Hahahahaha. JB, stuff of legend. Especially when you consider that the Bin Dippers think that Smith is some kind of hard nut.
