I'm in the camp that simply doesn't care about other teams' players. I don't want to go and watch ANY of them - they simply don't interest me in the slightest... I'm not really a football fan (I don't generally watch other teams on the telly or anywhere else) - I'm really only a Bolton fan...

I guess the only time I have gone out of my way to watch a game that didn't involve Bolton was when I drove down to GG's and Mr GG's to watch Liverpool in some European Cup final in the hope that we'd see them lose... we were richly rewarded!! 8)

You're just on the wind up now, yes?
Seriously, who are these people? You really think that people exist out there who only go to the Reebok to watch Premiership football and not be bothered about Bolton?
If that were true why would they subject themselves to the pain of a BWFC matchday experience rather than watch it at home on the telly or for free on the internet?

Go and sit in the west upper.....plenty there who barely move when we score. Some fans like football and will watch a premiership club close to them, rather than necessarily being a "fan" of a club per se.

Any chance you two could keep the flirting to just the one thread, or better still do it on facebook? Only I'm sick of reading it on every other thread I click on.

So have you actually spoke to all these people who barely move when we score?

My ST ticket (plus my lad) costs less than £15 per game next season on 10 months interest free payments which, in my view, offers fantastic value for money.

You'd be surprised at just how many of these folk exist, and 'football tourism' is pretty big business (albeit not quite as much with the recession and whatnot).

From a personal point of view as someone who struggles for Saturday games so generally goes to the Sunday/midweek ones, I'll be going to a ton more games next season than the past couple of years. I'm also someone who goes to watch Bolton and the opposition doesn't really make a jot of difference.

I would love to be near Bolton and have a season ticket, universitie next year at Bolton or Manchester is an option depending on fees :(

It should be called Bolton 'University'
I think the air-quotes are important when calling it that.
