we now face sheffield on saturday, it is ??26 not bad for a premier league game IMO, it is an old fashioned ground with great atmosphere, a 1 hour journey from bolton, and a great place for a beer either going or coming back or both, yet we have sold only 1000 tickets, we are still 3rd in the premier league behind 2 teams who have spent about 1 billion on players, for those who went to blackburn and enjoyed it i say do your best to get to sheffield i think it could be just as enjoyable a day out, back the team they need our support after a couple of dodgy performances, see you all there.

I'm not having a go at anyone that doesn't travel, but it's not far, it's a Sat kick off at 3pm, we're in 3rd place in the Prem League and it's only ??26 per ticket...

 

If we only take about 1,500 I think that confirms that we have very, very poor away support and we are indeed a pretty small club!

 

Doesn't overly bother me, but I think it's the truth!

i think even Charlton managed to nearly fill that bottom tier, according to thefootballgroundguide.co.uk it holds 3000. it will be embarrasing if its only half full!

??26, 1 hours journey, few pints, 3 points, plus its an away game on a saturday kicking off at 3pm, iirc the first since Charlton at the start of the season? and not on tele. the stayaways are running out excuses for this one!

That's hardly a revelation though.

 

I used to travel anywhere and everywhere, ??26 is a bargain and it's easy to get to. I have absolutely no idea why I'm not going.

Kinda the same here, really should go it's cheap and close enough not to be a massive hassle but i'm just not inspired to go for some reason!

however when we last played there in 2000 in Div One and it costing ??19, we filled the upper tier!!

It's to do with habit. I've fallen out of love with football, from FIFA, UEFA and the FA through to BWFC Plc.

That's hardly a revelation though.

It aint a revelation, but it's finally hitting home. Think I've been in denial, coming up with excuses!

which is the best pub for the army of travellers? last time just did town centre.

 

not sure if it's still open but there is a pub called the Cossack just up the hill, as it were, from the train station

 

there is also a pub on London Road called The Cremorne which let away fans in, probably the only one on London Road that you'd want to go in

 

Pomona / Nusery Taven on Ecclesall Road are good too, about 10/15 mins walk from the ground

get your arses over to sheffield tommorow,if you are not going and have no valid excuse can you really call yourself a bolton wanderers fan?

The Cossack i don't think is open anymore and if it is i thinks its a gay bar now, depends on how your getting to sheffield , if by train id get a taxi to ecclesall road to the nursary tavern, or pomana like you said or if there too far away for you the devonshire arms is opposite waitrose on eccleshall road which is not far away from the ground, depends on what you looking for , if you want trouble go down london road theres about 10 pubs in a mile full of interesting characters, quiet drink no hassle = eccleshall road, or you could always go into the city centre on west street lots of pubs on there just a bit of a treck to the ground from there. i live on eccleshall road so will be working my way down from the top down to the ground starting very early looking forward to it

one of my teacher went to sheffiled uni and gave me advice on what pubs to go to. he also reccomended the panoma and nursery tavern and uncle sams for something to eat.

not self righteous at all, i dont go to all games anymore, so i dont consider myself the greatest fan of BWFC in the last few seasons i have missed probably 1/2 the away games for 1 reason or another sometimes i could not be arsed travelling to London if it was on SKY or dodgy satellite, but i think if it is a 3pm kick off not on sky and only 1 hour away, and people say there not going because they cannot be arsed, it is a valid question to raise are they really bolton fans, i have know many lads who were massive bolton fans they dont go home or away anymore in my opinion they are not Bolton fans any more, simple as that.

Totally agree Mounts.

 

Yeah i may be a moaning sod but i am above all else a Bolton paying supporter who spends a lot of money home and away.

 

I honestly thought tomorrow we would take 2500 at least.

 

1500 is pitiful, pathetic, call it what you will.

 

Last year we blamed UEFA. At these levels we are one of the smallest teams in Prem League and i believe away support is a good measure as to the perceived size of a club.

I can't believe that that is all we are taking

 

Its about an hour by road or train FFS

 

 

If you have no valid reason for not going, get your f??ckin arses there tomorrow and pay on the gate FFS

it has been a turdnudgers pub for many a year.....

get in the students bar at the uni

Ani, do you work in the ticket office by any chance?This isn't the first time you've been on here defending the lack of communication from the club about ticket sales.I think we all realise its the management not the people who just work in the office who are found wanting.If el-Hadji Diouffs jock strap is being auctioned online the club has no problem in making us all aware of it,however if its something important they just can't be arsed in keeping us informed.
