Chelsea v Bolton. Extended highlights from the main game on 'The Big Match' in December 1975:

 

I was at that one & like the FA cup game it wasn't for the faint hearted. A few Bolton fans got left in London when , iirc, the police made the coaches leave before everyone got back to them safely.

Where were the Bolton fans? Seemed like most of the supporters were on the same side of the ground as the cameras.

Behind the goal where Bolton scored, on the open end, starting off in the middle & finishing up with about 100 pressed against the fence in the corner. Felgate saving a penalty at the end didn't do us any favours :) . I think  a few more sensibly kept a low profile.

That was a few years after Bolton were on the shed larging it up, Chelsea in them days was notorious not many fancied a trip there.

There seems to be more Bolton supporters in the ground than Blackpool at that game in '74. Look at the number of fans not celebrating Blackpool's goal in their end.

Blackpool's "end " was the end at which Bolton scored (the Kop ) , which was divided down the middle by a line of police. It's a shame the camera doesn't  show further back up the Kop which i remember as being packed out.
