Stoke at the Reebok...

Where fellow sufferers gather to share the pain, longing and unrequited transfer requests that make being a Wanderer what it is...

Stoke at the Reebok...

Post by truewhite15 » Tue Oct 12, 2010 10:23 pm

Also known as the homecoming of England striker and Bolton Wanderers hardman Skipper, Super Kevin Davies. Anyone else REALLY looking forward to hearing what sort of reception he gets when his name is called out?
(P.S. - Apologies if there's already a match thread, I didn't check the page before typing this...)

It is going to be fantastic.

He will get a massive cheer from the wandereres faithful and I fancy a few of the Stoke lot cheering as well.

We badly need a game at home. This is as good a game as any, but they stuffed us last season the dour beggars

Wasn't it 1-1 at home with a very late Taylor pen?
Pfffft.

Aye, it was, but they still stuffed us. We were dire, and really got away with it. Possibly the worst of a very bad bunch of games under Megson.

It must've just felt like a stuffing. It was a terrible game

Just said pretty much the same thing in another thread - cant wait to take part in giving him a great reception.

For some reason I always look forward to home games just a little bit extra following international breaks, I miss the routine

This is a crucial match for Dan Smith - he can cream the likes of Diaby and Nasri all he likes but it won't mean nowt if we let Stoke push us around.

I remember Rory Delap 'scoring' with a throw-in last time around. Good thing it doesn't count as a goal when the ball is thrown into the net without anyone touching it. :D

And I look forward to the SKD's reception as well. Would the Stoke fans actually join in on the cheering? A victory for unfashionable clubs everywhere? Shawcross already has some caps after all.

I'd absolutley love it if Kev, on his England homecoming, could have the game of his life topped by a typical Davies smashing-3-defenders-and-the-ball-over-the-line goal.

Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

3-1 Bolton.

Very confident about this one.

Two England internationals and the North West player of the year on the pitch? The whole team must be lifted by this.

Well done Owen Coyle.

I was on the train with them from Manchester that day. They scared the holy bejesus out of me when one of them said 'we need id cards to come to away games as we've got a bad reputation' :shock: :cry:

So taking a few fans counts as news in Staffordshire now does it?

Hope we pass 'em to death and it's a victory for football played the proper way :grin:
