I think this is true - as is the fact that there is no standing at the Reebok, but that's something that will never change now.thebish wrote:Harry Genshaw wrote:Well done on todays win lad.

Agree with others here. Burnden was a disgrace and the Reebok easily meets our needs, but I dont know what it is, I got a far better buzz going to Burnden than I ever have at the 'bok. Perhaps it needs another 10 years or so before I start to feel some sort of attachment to it.
maybe, also - getting older has summat to do with it... Burnden is (for you) emotionally attached to your youth in a way the Reebok never will be...

It has been disproved, I think there was about 3 miles in it. There's a stright road (albeit a long one) between Town and the Reebok.Gary the Enfield wrote:Isn't this an urban myth?

Oh and for the person who said it, Horwich IS in Bolton, it's like saying Ordsall isn't Salford!

Mind you, I wasn't doing the driving
Accoring to Google maps Bolton is 0.8 miles closer....I stand corrected.boltonboris wrote:It has been disproved, I think there was about 3 miles in it.
