That's got me scratching my swede- if it wasn't for geography it wouldn't be a derby would it?

Lostock was alluding to the fact that tensions maybe high and form goes out of the window due to normally high intensity of a your traditional 'Derby' match, with passions riding high. Burnley/Blackburn style.

 

This is just two local teams playing that don't give a fuck about each other.

Is that because we've just not played each other much recently?

 

Remember watching us stuff them on their plastic pitch. Away end proper rammed. Cracking atmosphere.

 

In all fairness Blackburn and utd are my top derbies, but still enjoy trying to get one over on them.

I was excited by the prospect of playing them again a couple of seasons ago especially by the Saturday night away fixture, but had no real dislike for them...

 

Until their utter delight at adding another nail into the relegation coffin with a win at ours later that season. Fuck em.

How things have changed then. This used to be one we looked on the fixture list for as soon as it came out. I can remember utter carnage at their place both in the 'bouncy end' and also on their Kop for Roger Hunts debut.

 

Preston nick was a busy place when Bolton were in town!

I remember when leaflets were handed out in Bolton telling everyone to go to preston too kick it off with their lads. I think the game was postponed but loads turned out anyway

The game there in 85 was tasty to say the least.

 

We lost 1-0.
