He played more than 3 games for PNE in 86/7 didn't he? Your quite right , he played 37 games in 1986/87 when they gained promotion , and the following season he played 38 when they finished mid table.

He'd have done a decent job for us managed right. His experience would have been what we needed. Probably only in terms of getting us up to mid-table in 85/6 though to be fair!

paulhanley Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 For various reasons I've not managed to do a post today but I'm pointing you in the direction of a fairly new stream on You Tube instead. This guy "Red Rose Dan" is posting some fantastic stuff, mainly from the 1990s and 2000s. Well worth a look at his channel. One of his more recent postings is below- Bolton 2 Ipswich 0 from 98/9. Other gems include: Bolton 3 Sheff W 2 from 97/8; Bolton 1 WBA 0 from 94/5; City 1 Bolton 2 from 96/7; Bolton 1 West Ham 0 from 07/8, Everton 1 Bolton 2 from 03/4; Bolton 1 Norwich 0 from 00/01; Wolves 1 Bolton 2 from 03/4 and Bolton 1 Bristol C 0 from 98/9. You'll also find one of my favourite games of the 90s - Peterborough 2 Bolton 3 from 93/4. This was the day we knew we'd survived our first year back in the second tier under Bruce and Andy Walker scored a couple on his return from injury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those goals were poetry in motion and was typical of him in those days. And Claus Jensen wasnt bad either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think players were held in greater affection than they are now, irrespective of ability. Simon Farnworth and Dave Felgate werent anywhere near as good as Remi Matthews in my opinion, but they got a kind of hero worship if they made a save. Matthews makes loads of saves and never gets a mention from us fans, its not as if a song for him would be difficult to make up with his classic 2 x 2 syllables! Jason Lowe is better than Warren Joyce, but he would never get a song if he captained us to the title. Players are viewed more cynically now, like you're earning good money and we're crap, just be grateful. They felt more like family 30 years ago and we accepted their faults.

That's just down to the differential between what they earn and what the rest of us earn on average. By the sounds of it that gap may be closing soon!

marple whites Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Some great games at Grimsby. remember a 1-0 win away when they were flying high and we were near the bottom and we got performance of the week. went to the fuel crisis game on the coach - they had loads of chances in that game. loved the Christmas away game and the 2 first games of the seasons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyrotten Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I thought I'd already posted this but cant find it, apologies if its repeated...Can anyone find a link to a famous miss by Vaz Te at Blackburn in Jan 2006? He beat half their team on a long run then basically fell over in front of a gaping goal. Match finished 0-0 and was on a Friday, live on Sky. I cant find it on Youtube. There's a reason I want to see it which I wont bore you with. Any help appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched it in a pub in Lloret de Mar, which was as busy as you’d expect in January. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
