Someone start a "fanzone roll-call" thread to judge who's likely to be turning up and which piss cans would prefer 1.50 pints in wertherspoons! :::lol:::

Great news! also if it is sh!t, at least we will get served in scotts quicker!

 

TK mentions decorating the place, thought the old Totty Whites flag had gone into retirement after lisbon! might give it an airing!?

Decorate like the hotel in Brlgrade; retro eastern bloc.

 

Or go farther back in to anywhere in yorkshire

Think this is a great idea and possibly TK has made a bit of a difference. If he doesn't respond to suggestions and make changes, he loses his job. Feel closer to the club that I have since late 80's, just feel like they are now responding (finally!) and I feel like the fans and the club are now working together to improve things

 

I will be definately be there. The pubs round the Reebok deserve all they get for poor service so the club needs to invest in servers and the fans need to respond in numbers

 

My suggestions;

 

1) Disco playing Stone Roses, New Order, etc

2) Lad selling badges in corner

3) Walkden Whites away travel booking point

4) Get McGinlay/Walker down on the stage. If he comes home for Christmas, a Super John themed day

5) Robbie, Robbie show us your arse as compere and at ten to three he does, to advise when the bar closes

6) Early bus at 12.00 from town straight to the doors of the Premier Suite

7) Would let away fans in. Competitions, who can eat a pie the quickest. BWFC fan v BRFC fan or Barry Cowdrill v Simon Garner, etc

8) Its a big room which needs smaller sections - instead of tap room, pool room, lounge - Bolton Youth, Farnworth, Horwich Casuals. Split people up, you wouldn't want to be sat with someone who posts on the-wanderer

F?ck 'em. Let them have it.

 

Myself, Mounts, Happy, Casino, Bobcat, Satan and Bristol amongst others know the truth.

We sat in an exec box with the marketing people from the reebok over 2 yrs ago.

We asked for a singing area.

We asked for a standing area.

We asked for unreserved seating area if we couldn't stand.

We asked for a drinking hall in the Premier Suite.

We asked for away season tickets.

 

In fact, we asked for loads of things.

And got turned down for every request, but we were told our input was "invaluable!"

 

This is good news - we got what we wanted - even though it might have taken a fans liason officer to make the club see sense.

 

We still need the club to play some motivational BWFC videos and play "my world is a football" prior to the game, but we have no real excuses now, lets have some beers and get behind the team and get us winning games. Lets face it with Meggers in charge, the team needs all the help it can get.

This is a Fantastic idea :yahoo:

The Chairman and Directors have come up trumps once again

Reduced Season Ticket Prices, Singing Stand, Free Travel to Away Matches and now FANZONE BAR :drinks: They only need to stick a bookies/poker room in the corner now, and I will think I have died and gone to heaven

If the first drink is free it will be the only chance of Blackely White or Chief Wiggum getting the first round in :yahoo: :rofl: :ph34r:

That's not true, BlackleyWhite got the first round in, a couple of weeks ago in that ?1 a pint boozer on Bradshawgate

Why doesnt someone put up a WW flag and we can meet and greet. It may help me (for 1)meet some people off here i have spoken to over past 18 months but never met

 

Its a very steep and slippery slope into excessive binge drinking, drug taking, and adultery. Beware!!

no matter what anybody says it will always be a better atmosphere in the ground when 'like minded lads' have had a few sherbets before the game. crackin move from bwfc , agree with whats been said - get some flags up , music on and away we go , the atmosphere will build in there then go straight into the ground . anybody that doesnt like it then fook off to harvester with yer pipe and slippers .

 

p.s. i trust we will be seeing bobcap in there !!!

Good stuff!

 

My further suggestion for Tony is that for the United game in January the club marks the 30th anniversay (or 30 years and 26 days to be precise) of us stuffing them 3-0 at Burnden by having a nostalgic 70s themed day. So no stewards or CCTV, just no-nonsense coppers who hit first and ask questions later. Casual clobber is out, anyone up for a ruck must turn up with a scarf tied to their wrist, and if you're wearing steelies prepare to have to leave your laces outside. No decent segregation; smoking in all areas; no searches for drink or house bricks as you go in. The screen lists half time scores next to letters of the alphabet and you have to decipher them using the back of the programme. Early closing at Tesco.

Everyone gets pissed up, half the seats get ripped up and the United coach gets bricked.

Gets my vote :good:

When can we throw fireworks at away fans?

 

You can't; end of!

 

Haven't you read the Firework Code? It's been going since . . . ages ago.

 

Firstly, all fireworks you buy should meet UK safety standards BS 7114. Check the box to make sure this code is displayed. Only buy from a shop you know.

 

 

ALWAYS keep the box CLOSED before use.

 

 

Follow the SPECIFIC instructions for each firework.

 

 

Light the firework at arms-length, using a TAPER.

 

 

NEVER light a firework with a naked flame. Stand well back.

 

 

NEVER go back to a firework once it has been lit.

 

 

NEVER put fireworks in a pocket

 

 

Never THROW fireworks

 

 

Always light sparklers ONE AT A TIME and wear gloves to hold them.

 

NEVER give sparklers to a child under five.

 

 

Pets get very frightened by fireworks. Always keep animals indoors.

 

 

Many places have organised fireworks displays and bonfires. If you go to one of these make sure your children are with you at all times.

 

 

Kids love to see spectacular displays and it's easy for them to get caught up in the excitement and run off. If they have a mobile phone, make sure they have it on them and text or call them immediately if you don't know where they are. If you don't know how to text, let your child explain. They'll love the chance to show an adult how it's done.

 

 

If you have teenagers try and persuade them that fireworks aren't cool. Disfigured faces and lost eyesight won't help them pull the girls/boys.

 

 

This year the safety emphasis is focusing on sparklers. Often thought to be the 'harmless' firework, nothing could be further from the truth. Sparklers are just as capable of causing serious burns as any other firework. That's why it's important that children under school age are NEVER given sparklers to play with.

Stick to the Firework Code and when you next have cause to remember remember the 5th of November it will be with happy thoughts.

 

As you see, there are a few new ones that weren't in in the 70s/80s when it was possibly deemed acceptable to throw fireworks on a November 5th night match when they allowed the away support the other half of the once great Lever End!

I went watching Benfica v Sporting last Saturday and they were throwing flares everywhere.

 

Not a dangly eye or facial scar in sight, safe as houses.

 

Apparently the No Name Boys were knocking fcuking out of Sporting supporters outside the ground n'all. All good fun, no harm done.

Must have been well away form the ground then.

 

Out of bizarre perversion we went for a wander to find them. Sportings mob were in a big fenced off pen outside the ground going through the 'when we get out we'll show you' motions. Lots of verbals and waving of hands. We were stood outside the gates where this no name crew enter the ground but many were already in the ground by the time Sportings Juve Leo mob entered.

The police then shut the route around the stadium and then opened this pen to let the Sporting lot in. They charged up, bearing in mind there were about 2000 of em, surounded by about 6 riot police a bit of herras fencing, and made a really big noise this time. Benficas lot also made lots of noise and waved their hands, held back by maybe 8 policemen.

 

They then all went into the ground and waved their hands even harder.

In fairness the astmosphere was electric and as partisan as I've probably ever seen, they kept making noise, bouncing up and down like halfwits, and throwing flares about, but as far as mobs go, there was a lot of piss and wind.
