Was that in the Ainsworth?

Anyway to the game.
Lets see if he's learnt anything from the last few matches. We can win this. We need to win this.

We certainly do need to win. Drawing won't be an unmitigated disaster, but losing would plunge us too close to a relegation battle for my nerves to take.
Even winning will probably only propel us at best up to ~16th place, ten places and six points off the play off places.

I believe it'll be 4-1 to us, though this is only a predication. The goal scorers on the day will be lee, eagles, davies and our left back, plus some cvnt of theirs.

Yes it was, the bloke in question (sans ear) is my Brothers Mate. It used to be a good pub. But around the same time 20Yrs ago on a Christmas Day night a lad got 3 darts thrown at him and one went in his eye, he just walked out of the front room with it sticking out The culprit had just run past us about 10 seconds eatlier

[Wandering Willy]

Pretty sure I know the earless lad.

[Lost Leopard Spot]

Pretty sure I know the earless lad.

well he'll certainly stick out in a crowd.

[Lost Leopard Spot]

... or not, if you see what I mean.

[thebish]

how does he smell?

[Bruce Rioja]

Pretty sure I know the earless lad.

I do.

Sounds like Saturday's going to be Butterfield's last game for us. Shame that, I quite like the look of him.

Bit of a sobering thought, but ten games ago we were in 18th spot. We're still in 18th spot and a sure indication that nobody's sitting around waiting for us to start an upward charge. A draw might be a point better than a loss but with almost half the season gone, we need to get winning a bit rapid and gain some ground. Saturday would be a good place to start.

Any chance of you writing a preview for this one ? There must be lots of memories of clashes between the two teams to write about .

Will probably know tomorrow if you can or not.......will probably be able to.

There are many people out there far more qualified than me to write one on Hudersfield memories. I'd be delighted if someone would.

I really enjoy reading the previews,this thread on a Huddersfield forum made me think , i'd like to hear about the memories from a Bolton perspective.

Here's a couple : This fixture always reminds me of one of my favourite games ever although we lost it was 1976 FA cup 4th round we were in division 4 they were in division 2 I think and managed by our old boss Ian Greaves they had the likes of Sam Allardyce and Peter Reid playing for them it had been quite a while since we had seen a large crowd and 27,894 turned up and the atmosphere was electric. My name sake tells the tale of going round Allardyce in the first few minutes and promptly told that if he did that again he would get his f****** leg broke, its a good job he became a bit of a hero in later years.
I was 14 and in the cowshed there must have been around 3000 Bolton fans in the terrace that day just to the left of the shed and one thing that always makes me laugh was the sight of Harry Belafonte taking them all on !! he started at the top of the terrace and worked his way down to the bottom I will never forget the round of applause he got as he was carried on a stretcher by 2 St Johns Ambulance men along the front of the shed arm held aloft with a Town scarf round his wrist in triumph.
Happy Days
UTT

my memory is a little different. crowd being around 25,000 and i'd estimate a little under half the crowd was bolton. i was on the terrace with my dad and there were an incredible number of bolton fans there that day.
also another memory is the outside wall of the terrave being spray painted with 'MATT - BWFC' and then going to blackpool in the summer and someone had managed to spraypaint the same thing at the top of the black dipper.
also remember my dad leaving me by the car at the front of the main car park at the back of the terrace at the end of the game and a group of older bolton fans offering me to one of their young uns to beat up. fortunately he was crapping himself more than me and declined the opportunity and they laughed and moved on (phew!!!)


Away game at Burden park, sometime in mid 60s. Lost 3-0 at Burden Park, Franny Lee hat-trick. Miserable day out.

A few of us left the match and legged it back to station with about 15 mins to go (sorry). To top a bad day out, we arrived at the station to find a Bolton 'mob' waiting for us and had to run the gauntlet. Train then bricked on way out (different thread I know).
