Rant

Featured Replies

i just want to rant about a few things about the semi finals. feel free to join in or give your opinions.

 

first things first, during the match all i could see on facebook is 'non bolton fans' hahahahaha bolton getting beat, 'bolton dont deserve to be there' mainly from man utd fans who decide to put man utd statics on their status'..these very same fans who dont even go to watch their 'beloveded team'.

i said to one friend, 'when was the last time you went to a man utd match' she replied 'last year i have 2 kids so cant afford it now' her kids being 1 and 2 (i think or maybe older) sorry, but surely a new born would cost more than a 1 and 2 year old. clearly she doesnt even follow football if she thinks she went last year but for some reason cant afford to go this year because shes got 2 kids?!

 

next is the liverpool fans laughing and taking the piss... ERRRR HELLO!! DID YOUR TEAM GET TO THE SEMI FINALS? NO I THINK NOT. so pipe down!

 

these 'fans' of other teams really rile me up as they dont even go to match's....'armchair fans'

 

the second thing is i hear people are complaining they want their money back for the tickets for wembley on sunday.

we are all devastated, the players just didnt 'turn up' (if you get what i mean) we lost but at the end of the day, BE PROUD!! bolton got to wembley, where was the likes of chelsea, arsenal and liverpool? all top teams who didnt get to the semi finals. people who are complaining and went to wembley wouldnt be complaining if we had lost 3-2 or even won so why whinge now? the lads seem deeply sorry about their performance. yes it would of been nice to be in the finals, but lets just remember we may just do that next time.

 

third thing is 'so called bolton fans' saying 'oh bolton are shit, i dont like them anymore' you are not a fan! yeah, we got a hammering, but ill never stop being a bolton fan because of that. these people need to remember we are a good 8TH in the premiership.

 

god i just want to shake some people. ps this is NOT aimed at anyone on here as ive only just come on to post this. rant over, i feel much better now :) thanks! hope everyones okay x

    obviously not   why will be waiting another 11 years? why is their so much doubt? okay they didnt perform to their best standard, they didnt even perform atall but lets not underestimate what bolt

Minor point regarding your comments on facebook. I presume you can only see the comments of friends. I'd suggest you edit your setting accordingly if you don't like it. Also, why would you be looking on facebook during the match? How odd.

I couldn't get a phone signal inside Wembley at all, was going to check a couple of sites during half time but just couldn't.

I'm clearly not down with the kids then.

My point is these teams are likely to get there in the next few seasons, we could be waitin another 11 years or more. We need to start takin our chances when we get them, boro game was the same!

people who are complaining and went to wembley wouldnt be complaining if we had lost 3-2 or even won so why whinge now?

 

Because of the manner of the defeat.

 

If they put some effort in, play well & lose because Stoke were the better team then fine. At least we could take some pride in it.

There may never be another time

About the refunds, Dave Whelan "encouraged " Wigans players to refund fans ticket money after their match at Tottenham a couple of seasons ago when they got thrashed 9-1 i think it was.The players all chipped in and refunded every fan who made the journey.

 

Losing 5-0 to Stoke is about the same level of ineptitude as losing 9-1 at Tottenham.There is a precedent for players refunding fans money after an abysmal showing.

why will be waiting another 11 years? why is their so much doubt? okay they didnt perform to their best standard, they didnt even perform atall but lets not underestimate what bolton are capable of. im pretty sure owen coyle will know next time whats right for them. im feeling the carling cup final too. we lost, i just think people need to move on and look at the future and what chances we could have. bolton are a good side, seems they just werent prepared for wembley

thats what i said, if we had lost 3-2, people wouldnt moan but my point is, we got to the semi finals in the first place, people should take pride in that alone. that alone makes me so proud to be a bolton fan, win or lose, perform amazing or perform shit!

Whooooah, hold on a minute. Have I read this right. Did you not go?

someone actually said players should lose a weeks wage each to cover it and yes maybe it is a good idea, but did everyone have a good day out to start off with? yes! i think most people did. people need to prepare themselves that we might lose, we might win, you pay that price to support your club. win or lose

no i didnt go, but im still entitled to my opinion, my dad and my brother went though. it doesnt matter anyway if i went or not (i had very valid reasons for not going)

I didn't say you weren't entitled to your opinion. But those who want their money back spent it in the first place.

Have a think about that.

if i had gone i wouldnt of complained about wanting my money back, none of my family have moaned about wanting it back. im just stating my opinion, each to their own. doesnt matter if i went or not

 

but did everyone have a good day out to start off with? yes!

 

I didn't spend upwards of ?150 to have a nice day!

 

Edit - Just for the record Im not assed about getting the money back, give it to charity.

Bexy, I think you may be missing the point.

I agree that every Bolton fan is entitled to their opinion about the day if they went or not.Same as everyone is entitled to have an opinion about what is going on in Libya whether they are out there or not.

 

I disagree that it was a good day out as you said.I had a thoroughly miserable day.The day was always going to be about the match, and we were let down badly.It was an embarrassment.Rather have stayed at home.

at the end of the day, you paid to watch your team, it shouldnt matter win or lose. even if they got hammered. and i think thats a excellent idea :)

i dont think i am though, i think it doesnt matter if i went or not to wembley. im think people should stop moaning about their money because at the end of the day, you pay to watch your team win or lose. they didnt perform atall, so what, lets move on now and concetrate on the rest of the season and next season. thats just my opinion

thank you! regarding the second part, why was your morning shit? were you not in good spirits? my dad was on one of 100 coachs to wembley and said their was high spirits. it was a let down and an embarrassment but i think people need to focus on the positive now ... its been and gone

Bexy and nb!

 

I'm getting the words ky jelly wrestling match

 

you pay to watch your team win or lose. they didnt perform atall, so what

 

So what?

 

Imagine you spent ?40 to see a band at the MEN, and they came on, played one song and pissed off. Woudln't you be abit miffed? Thats what happened to us on Sunday.

 

We don't mind losing as long as we lose well.

Bexy and nb!

Thats slightly different though. 200 odd fans or whatever they probably took to 27,000 at more expensive tickets. A lot easier for them to do.
