My neighbour reckons 4 apiece. 

They score plenty but let them in too.

Another hand raised here. Sat in a pub in Caernarfon where the locals (bedecked in Man Utd tops, of course) were speaking in English until they heard us order our drinks and switched to Welsh.

You sure it wasn't Australian they switched to?

Probably cos it's a football forum and not The Old Bailey.

Did they clap in English or Welsh? 

Rest assured their Bed and Breakfast signs are in English.

Back when we had Preston at Cardiff in the playoff, I cadged a lift from a Bolton fan In Nottingham, and we picked up a couple in Ashby before heading down. For some reason or other a wrong turn got us going through Abergavenny   - OK that would be fine, just turn around and sort it. But it was the day of the Abergavenny  tractor parade. So we had to wait as dozens of farmers with tractors in varying states of disarray filed passed to the appreciation of the underwhelmed crowd. I recall one which had a flat-bed trailer behind it with a bloke and his three-legged sheepdog  on it. As he passed, he waved at us - thanking us for taking to time to appreciate his rusting piece of 1930's junk as if we were frantically filling in our "I-Spy book of redundant farm equipment operated by inbred dullards", ready to post it off to Big Chief I-Spy for a certificate. Instead we were desperate to get a a playoff final. Which we did, thanks to some crafty overtaking of a knock-off Massey-Ferguson driven by some toothless bloke and his wife in a funny hat.

Islam? Arabic? This is Bolton!

I know I’ve had a few digs at Cheese recently but when did Islam become a language?

Just quoting people in Bolton who speak another language, correct, not Islam, just some other lingo, which i have to be reserved on here, but deffo not welsh!

You don’t have to reserved with me. But calling Islam a language is just incorrect

I might be, doesn’t make sense to me.

Never mind anyway 

Am I remembering correctly, didnt we use to sing Burn your bungalow down, Taff at Burnden in the 80s? 

In Welsh, then English when they realised the Welsh could hear.

I know it shouldn't matter ... but I hope, wish and pray that the Irish boy doesn't have something to celebrate at 5pm.

3-1 Trotters

It's actually quite good for me we've got such a game / test first game 

Big away following 

Team that will be up for it 

The sort of game we struggled with last few seasons

Time to see if all the reflection and hard work over the summer has paid off 

Probably helps that Wrexham are as likely to concede as score 

But this is a game we generally don't win (if you ignore the ones we do)

It's giving me palpations

Like Zico says what a test this is. 

Big crowd, big away following, the wankathon that follows this lot, live on Sky, James McClean🥔, Phil Parky, first home game after summer of sucidial reflection and crash diets and a shit load of new signings and money spent.

 

Good lord its a big one this.

Forgot about him. I hope George smashes him.

Wasn't Welsh Wyn Davies's first language when he came from Wrexham?

It is indeed. 

Each to their own, but I can't see how anyone views it as a run of the mill game.

3-0, years walk in the park, the Welsh come crashing down to earth with a bump and can’t get near us, we wonder how it wasn’t 6, Collins with a brace and the new crowd favourite McAtee finishes it off, McClean sent off late on for a horror tackle after chasing shadows all game - Arfield, McAtee and GT are straight into him proving that we’ve found a bit of fight over the summer.

Defo each to their own. I see this as what should be a standard 3 points. Anything less and I’d be disappointed
