December 1, 20196 yr But I'm hearing folk who now, by their own admission, don't give a shit about Bolton any more because they just love their non-league club. Folk who started going when excuses were trotted out like "I'm not going while *Megson/Coyle/Freedman/Lennon/Parkinson is in charge" But now that none of them are in charge and they ran out of excuses. How is that any different than stopping watching Bolton and instead watching Man City or other local pro club? * Delete not applicable

December 1, 20196 yr Had a great time at Athy yesterday, looked after us really well and I'll have you know, I watched the first half Cassy. Number 9 was MOM for me on that first half performance, plus I was talking to him after the game and he supports Bolton, that Hardcastle supports Leeds so he was 2nd in the MOM Performances
December 1, 20196 yr I had 9 mates in the corporate yesterday, all of them had a brilliant time, we were really well looked after by the club,and for the price they charge is well worth the money.

But you've forgotten your BWFC upbringing. You've even said you don't care much for Bolton any more. That, to me, is the same as someone who changes allegiances and goes for a big successful club. You'd all be back if we got to a major cup final though.
December 1, 20196 yr 30 odd of our lot there and every one of em was a Bolton lad, 20 odd of them season ticket holders and all go to the game, we had no game so went to Athy as we did last time. Don't judge but it's a good day out Edited December 1, 20196 yr by Widnes Two Hats

December 2, 20196 yr 1 hour ago, L/H White said: did they go to plan then almost mate, the new manager is a well liked and respectable bloke, he's asked us to keep the announcement quiet until Tuesday, he will be attending our Lancashire Cup game at Ashton Athletic then. WEE're happy, he's happy and so are the players. There were 40 applicants, one a former manager of Falkirk and one was a well known ex Bolton player
December 2, 20196 yr Do those plans involve the management team from West Chorlton, who have also suddenly resigned?

December 2, 20196 yr Hope it works out. Rammy appointed a club legend when johnson and Morley left.. they sank like a stone
December 2, 20196 yr Am i right that the weekends activities didnt go to plan? Anyway, ex bolton, gregg strong? Ex falkirk...ex first team manager? Really? Can only think it was coyle
December 5, 20196 yr Players started leaving, I know its always the same when a manager leaves in non league, he takes at least half the team but hope it doesn't happen to colls.. especially not too Ashton's equivalent of LR
