A few weeks away yet, but this could be the biggest attendance Victory Park have had for many a year with it being a title cruncher. Come on Chester beat those Leigh stealing body-snatchers.

why do bolton fans choose chorley then??

 

lots of other options

 

thats why its the same

 

In most cases Bolton fans have been watching Chorley for years, they are Chorley based Wanderers fans, quite a few of them. When Bolton are away and Chorley at home there are loads of kids watching with Bolton tops on. Not just Bolton. Preston, Wigan, Blackburn too. 

 

I landed at a Chorley match fours years ago, it was the week before the league season started, I needed to get my dad out of the house, it was a toss up between a Rochdale & Chorley, the train to Chorley was the next one in.

First impressions was, bar, cheap, no mither and football not too bad. Plus I couldn't believe the number of people I knew from all my years following Bolton. 

Yeh we hit lucky in being there just as Flitty started, something that really pissed Biff off.

The following weeks in between Bolton home games we went to Accy, Macclesfield then returned to Chorley, my dad liked it. As we got to the end of the season we where going to more away matches and TBH we felt that a day out watching non-league was better then sitting in Reebok. 

Last season we started going to more grounds like Glossop, Rammy Untd and Annan. Next season we are going to do more ground hopping including Europe which will be at the expense of quite a few Chorley games.

 

One thing I've noticed this season is how much people have/are enjoying life in the Championship watching Bolton, I don't mean the actually match but the whole day out, you can see this on the Huddlesfield away thread. Maybe its the Premier league? probably was in our case.

 

Like I've said before, each to there own. I'll never tell anybody what to do or knock them for watching Bolton (I've done it in all divisions) all I say is give it a go.

Ask Fester, he couldn't understand why where watching Chorley four years ago, came to one match and that was it. He goes all over now, Rammy, Racliffe Boro etc.

Since when did a mustachioed Gary Barlow moonlight as a Chorley player?

Andy Teague, growing it until promotion apparently.

 

He'll take us to the football league, Andy, Andy Teague.

He started growing it and said he'd shave it off when Chorley won promotion, I think he shaved it off on Sat night after the Buxton match and raised £700 for Charity, Mencap I think.

I played for Athy Colls for 5 years from 17 - 22 year old, I just fell out with pro football, I still go to some away games for a day out, I still go on England trips purely for the trips, the 'don't lose at any cost' and blatant cheating mentality of [a lot of] pro players made me disheartened and angry so I stay away [but I'm going on Saturday for a day out on the piss]

Off to Curzon to see mates lad lead the line for Maine Road he's a big Bolton fan.

Don't think this would go down well in non-league:

Hmmmm how to get big clubs to stock pile up more players.

 

Great idea Gregg

Altrincham promoted to the Conference after a 120th minute winner against Guiseley in the play off final

Had our end of season committee meeting last night at Athy Colls, our new manager and his staff turned up for introduction purposes, they are all very well known [and liked] and they are ambitious and looking forward to next season

Clegg....?

Clegg....?

Yes mate, Michael Clegg, long time friend of Nicky Hunt, Cleggy had a spell on United's books, he has even brought in one of the nutritionists from the Reebok, they look a keen set of lads who want to do well

Was only from what I'd gathered on Twitter that I'd guessed it was him. Seemed to impress when he was managing at LR last season so hopefully he can kick things on and finally get that promotion spot!

Have Chorley signed off the 2nd tier yet for the main stand?

Yes

County mate reckons they'll bring 2000 to Chorley. Haha

Apart from the will only get 800 tickets

That's what the Chester lot were giving it, that and the fact they would be giving it the big un, ended up getting chased out of town by the Neanderthal hordes - good times

Chorley ST's and prices released. Getting in for a fiver with your Bolton ST has gone.

my very itk mate reckons the boardroom expect promotion next year

They may struggle, both Barrow and Chester have gone full time, some big money invested at Barrow too who have started signing players on 3 year deals etc.

 

ITK, KW son?
