SatanGreavsie Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Sorry to interfere in this "Bolton-only" issue but... There are such people in every crowd - people that leave earlier. Here we call them success supporters. You have to options - either to get rid of them, and remain less but standing to the lats man and to the last last minute, or to show them how to be a real supporter, no matter what the score is. Two years ago, when we played in the preliminary CL rounds we faced Brugge. We lost 2-0 in the away game and 4-0 in the home game. Even then none of us left the ground. I saw a kid, he was probably 8 or 9, crying but clapping and chanting as loud as he could. This is what I call a true supporter. One can tell the true supoorter when the club is down and out. Otherwise there's too much success-supporting stuff. 'ere Freak, changing the subject - can you get hold of Plovdiv scarves?? I'm sure there's a good few on here would be up for buying them and you could probably make a tidy profit yerself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underpants Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 sorry kempo your wrong there pal most grounds in prem get behind the team in big game When it suits them most Premier League grounds will get behind their team. And when it suits us, and we can be arsed, so can the Reebok. Some are better than others but he simple fact is the atmosphere throughout the Premier League grounds is nowt special.

Brum for example was pretty, erm, electric in their first season back up when it became apparent they'd stay up bet it's not tonight though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exiledwhite2 Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Blackburn and Bolton is not a derby, its still local rivalry, Blackburn also dont have a Derby! So if you look at it as a derby, you only took 800 too it! :-# A derby is not necessarily a game between teams from the same political boundaries though...Man United and Man City are not in the same city if you want to be pedantic. Ipswich - Norwich different counties. West Brom / Villa / Wolverhampton all different towns / cities. Bolton and Salford border each other, only the M61 bridge divides the two at LH / Farnworth. And United and Bolton have decades of rivalry. It's a derby!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zozzy Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Walkden, Salford and Little Hulton are all one and the same :Ds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Nope still not a Derby, the term 'Derby' is thrown around too much! A Derby is when 2 teams from the same town/City play each other! End off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
