Gravel rash

I remember once seeing the headline "Referee hit by missile" belting thought I, hoping it was a sidewinder (or equivalent), turned out it was a two pence piece... what a let down that was.

What about a Referee exchange Scheme with the FA...Barry Knight, Mike Riley? Others?

Nail, th'ead first time!

Col, It's ABC as easy as 1,2,3 ... I want you back! Oh for the good old days when Jermaine Jackson turned out in the white shirt. How I hoped he'd entice Tito, Marlon and Jackie along to join him, what a back four that would have been, proper unit. Onwards and upwards! ;-) Guess who

Fat blokes with flags, running about. It's the future.

Eloquently put sir!

God bless mummy, God bless daddy, God bless my doggy and please, pleeeaasssee let Owen Coyle get the Wolves gig!

Cue slobberchops at the 'appy 'ammers; "He's left a wonderful legacy to the world of football......have I ever mentioned I can manage a big club?"

I don't remember John Thomas being a hard man?

Wouldn't have got Nat wearing one or some of the latter day hard men like Mick Harford or Andy Gray. (though Andy Gray should have, right fow fucker he is)

First one to remove a traffic cone hat from on of the clowns and ram it up his jacksy whilst declaring "How's that for a butt plug you orange bastard?" gets ten house marks and a gold star. (apparently a butt plug is a device often used for pleasure in Blackpool "circles")

Include North Stand Lower in there too.

Gravel Rash recruited one lapsed fan, two part timers (who would probably have come anyway)and son who plays on Saturdays. Limited availability v v difficult finding two seats together in East and West lowers. COYFWM!!

Standing at the top of the steps on the Bromwich St side of the subway, my beloved Burnden bathed by the floodlights. Watching fellow Trotters' heading for home, telling my two children to "Have a good long look kids and make sure you will always remember, you won't be seeing it again!" Unashamedly, with tears in my eyes; turning around and seeing dozens of others doing similar. What a night...still makes the hairs stand up, even now!

Adrian Chillies (commentater hash)

Good lad Tony, but mad as a box of frogs. Had he fallen he probably wouldn't have felt it. We had a more than a few like that in those days.

KD yesterday had a defender in front of him, backing into him and holding him with both hands behind his back. At the same time he also had a defender behind him, barging him in the back, with both arms around Kev and the first defender. He was, in effect, the beef in a very tight butty and looked like one of those Indian Gods with lots of arms. So the ref blows and gives a free kick to..... guess who..... correct, CHARLTON! WTF!!!

Waaaayoh - reply- Waaaaayoh! Waaaayoh - reply- Waaaaayoh! Goobah, Goobah, Goobah - reply - Goobah, Goobah, Goobah! Goobah, Goobah, Goobah - reply - Goobah, Goobah, Goobah! Hah, hah, hah - reply - Hah, hah, hah! Hah, hah, hah - reply - Hah, hah, hah! Not sure of the spelling, but hey, it's the words that matter. What ever became of Tony Brooks?

First game I ever saw was watched from the Embankment at Burnden with my dad and my brother, We won two nil, Freddie Hill scored the second with a curling free kick over the defensive wall. Our opponents played in an all orange strip, it was 1964 ...I think and our opponents were....Swansea Town. Yes, Town, that's what they were called in them days, Swansea is now a city and so will Bolton be soon. Do I win a pyize?

Fucking Horrible! Arty farty designers scraping the barrel trying like fuck to come up with some new "sexy'combination of white and dark blue on a football shirt...and failing!! WANKERS!!! Traditional, white and navy blue, no red pipings or flashes or fuck knows what they're called. It's for the football pitch not the catwalk. Keep our money for buying players and tell the designers to piss off. Get the old badge back too. ..............and breathe!

GOOD! Stick to handing out Werthers Originals by the school gates. ....ruining my bloody thread!

Zulu has it! And, no I haven't got any strawberry flavoured ones or any other flavoured ones for you as it happens. You're a cheating bastard.... I've already told you the answer! Brothers eh? Who needs 'em. You can choose your friends but not your family!!

"What Semi Final was that then? Bring on the Arsenal!" Now then did anyone notice those large grassy pyramids by the side of the A40 in Laahndon and wonder what they were? No.....just me then, eh? Well there's a sweetie out of the tin for the first person to identify them correctly. (Awaits torrent of abuse from still severely pissed off comrades)

Cheers for that Ragman! We met a few good Stoke fans before the game and shared beers, butties and photos etc, they were good folk, all just as apprehensive as us! We were in the multi storey near the Bolton end, (if anyone of those people are reading this, hello again and well done! ...There, that didn't hurt, did it?) We were dreadful and Stoke were very good, I left after the fifth goal, (I NEVER leave early) but I felt so helpless and couldn't cope. I also wanted to beat the traffic and avoid anyone from Stoke, from gloaters to commiseraters, I would have been unable to force the necessary smile, that they both deserved. :-) I've been a Wanderer for many years, seen us in all four divisions and watched us in Europe. This is bad time but it's been worse, will I be there on Sunday against Arsenal?....Damn right!! Us Bowtoners are made of stern stuff. See you next season

....apparently the Police say it's OK, they can wear the same ones they wore the last time they played there.
