That shirt is a thing of beauty. I had a white one the dog got it and chewed the collar 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolton va va Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 1 hour ago, RONNIE PHILLIPS said: That was the goal.....if memory serves me correctly our lads in their end were to the left as you look at it, the camera cuts away just before them. I was to the right on the Riverside paddock. Yep, I was on that end & right at the end of that clip, you can just see Bolton at the back.

Underpants Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Definitely that night. I've got a picture of that goal on the wall at Undies Towers. This was my first ever away game. Stood in the Riverside Terrace. Full of Bolton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertie Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Happy Days then. I was 7 years old, sat in their main stand with my mum/dad. Sadly only vague memories of the goal, that night and that era, so good to find the goal footage. Would love to see the final whistle scenes….if they exist.

Ditto - only my 2nd or 3rd away game and was in that stand. One abiding memory is looking at the away end - as packed as any stand I've ever seen since, seriously. And I saw a good few packed ones on the Embankment with away fans at Burnden in the next few years e.g. Liverpool in '79 when they stuffed us 4-1.

So would I, was there for both wins but the tension and excitement of those 2 wins has virtually erased both 90 minutes, I remember the McQueen penalty miss and before the games but little else.

Marc505 Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Must be the holy grail of footage those two games. Love asking my mates dad about the 3-0 and just letting him go on with himself for ages, still brings him joy! So, it was December 22nd, a Friday night just before Christmas? Incredible timing.

Brilliant day/night - arrived Blackburn about 11.00am and loads on the train at that time Looking back attendance was 27,835 with Blackburns average crowd that season 12,000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter MickyD Posted November 30, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted November 30, 2022 It’ll certainly have been posted previously but sod that; there’s never a bad time. Thing is though, at 4.09, is it Jamie Rednapp diving in with both feet? Dirty cunt! A potentially career ending tackle if ever I saw one.

Not as bad, but not sure how Sunbed gets away with that foul on 2:34. Not even a free kick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won the raffle and the prize was a football signed and presented by Rod Stewart. England beat Scotland, we won a cup at Wembley, he's had worse weekends.

Closed again until 7pm. Shops closed, cinemas closed till 7pm., very little public transport. TV began at 22noon and was religion based. Kiddies stuff at 2pm (Tinga & Tucker Club anyone ?) then closed down again till the 6pm news, then Songs of Praise followed by non-controversial drama & shut down between 10pm and 11pm Fck me, it was dismal.

Used to hate Sundays back then, seemed like it always rained on a Sunday as well…. Only when I was old enough for Sunday league football did it improve.
