paulhanley Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Unlike last season our Lancashire derbies in 23/4 will carry a little more significance. We're all looking forward to the chance to set thing straight with them Wigan cunts next season. Older fans will also be looking forward to our other main local derby - our old friends the donkey lashers from Bloomfield Road. Their Bolton obsession clearly continues unabated. Mention BWFC to a Blackpool fan and it's a guarantee they'll become animated. Surveys of rivalries consistently rank us as their 2nd most hated team behind PNE. This thread from their forum sums it up. Bolton | AVFTT I'll be looking forward to our fixtures v them and hoping we win at Gloomfield for the first time since Xmas 1977. Bring em on.

Bolton can go shite. Or this one perhaps? Growing unrest amongst fans over Evo, we should hang fire on our appointment. Or this one? Fuck Bolton and everything and everyone connected to them. I've got a long memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter RONNIE PHILLIPS Posted May 20, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted May 20, 2023 I think if they had murdered one of ours the hatred would be just as intense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems very confected if that's the case. Hatred over something that happened 50 years ago to someone virtually none of their fans (or ours) knew.

Barnstoneworth White Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 I remember it because I was watching the World of Sport and Dickie Davies announced it on live TV that there'd been a fatality at the game. Very sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Armfield apologised on behalf of the club that night didn't he? Blackpool was my first ever away game, about 1976/77. We lost 0-1. I've been there for several league games since plus league cup, sherpa van, fa Cup and even pre season friendlies. We've not won any of em.

We've not won any of em. Me too, seen pre-season, FA Cup, Sherpa Van, league games, never won but not seen many defeats, a lot of scoring draws, and surges on packed terraces. Sherpa Van one of best memories of any away game I've been to, Norpigs everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
