Tried getting all matey with us then next thing hes bouncing around with Boro's frontline out side some pub in Middlesbrough town centre throwing traffic cones about. Got stuck with him on train back from London as well, he was drinking wine straight from the bottle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulhanley Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 You may recall the posting of Bolton 2 Halifax 0 in the 79/80 FA Cup a few weeks ago. Here are far more extensive highlights. Really enjoyed watching this. It's from the Yorkshire TV coverage. It comes in two chunks. On the first video you need to go to about 52:20 for the start of our game. The Halifax home win v Man City in the 3rd round is the first 52 mins of the video. The second video contains the last few minutes of the Burnden game and then an interview with Ian Greaves and the Halifax manager. Great to see players from this era in longer highlights and the Burnden songbook is in full effect in the background! We should have had half a dozen penalties in this!!

Even though 80-85 was a crap era for Bolton it's always a pleasure to see footage from then because compared to the 70s and the second half of the 80s its less commonly found. Seems like there was no segregation at Loftus Road that day! Marland's books says this was 11 October and it was Brian Kidd with our goal.

Snippets keep popping up here and there , although I've kinda lost track of what video's are on this thread . Let's hope that the QPR Web group turn up the game from 78/79.

The first goal in that clip ^ I'm sure was after around 6 seconds. Iirc there was talk about whether it equalled the fastest ever league goal.

At some point I will go through 80/81 to 84/5 and list what is on You Tube. From 85/6 onwards the amount of footage increases significantly so that's less relevant.

It would be helpful for a list of some sort , going slightly off topic , I found the full Barnsley 88 cup game as well , but I think you have that anyway?

dusan nikolic Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 The infamous Barnsley v Bolton cup game from 1988 . This is the full match that Barnsley claim is from their archive , even though it's obviously from a Roadrunner recording . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyrotten Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 There's an interesting article on the BN site today reminiscing about when we tried to get Pele as manager to replace George Mulhall in 1982....anyway it reminded me of Brazil/Pele training at Bromwich St in 1966. I found this video that I'd never seen before. Absolutely priceless footage and the Burnden floodlights look magnificent in the background: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played football on there (unofficially) as a kid from late 70s into mid 80s before it got demolished. Had our fair share of balls that came over the wall and didn’t find their way back to the club!

After the match in the hospitality lounge our supplier pissed off quick as he could feel a tension in the room. Brownie popped his head in and the place nearly went off. He was advised to disappear quick. The angry Forest lot then turned their attentions to us and we literally had to run out the place through the kitchens and out onto the Trent via a fire door exit! Memories eh! And we lost. Edited June 25, 2022 by Smiley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
