white -50 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) Suppose with a lot of the other things also mentioned, it's got to be moving to the Reebok and playing in the top league for so long. Talking about the Reebok i think it's a fantastic stadium,but like somebody's already said wish it was in Central Bolton. Just remembered Segregation, in the mid 60's there wasn't any, as far as i can remember. Embankment or Lever End. Good old Days.

Site Supporter MickyD Posted March 3, 2012 Site Supporter Share Posted March 3, 2012 Even in the last few years I don't remember that happening. Certainly under the manny Rd N it was tea, coffee or boveril but served by a couple of stunning young girls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazzyinBolton Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Piss rivers in the bogs, openly racist chanting in the crowd, being able to turn up on burnden car park a few hours before an away game & paying a few quid to jump in a van with a load of notrights smoking funny fags & periodically stopping to rob the services, the Manx cup, notifying substitutions with hand held numbers, blue spaz chariots parked inside the ground, 1970s posters about hooliganism that were still there in the 80s, away fans climbing the floodlights, the buzz of a crowd walking down manny rd towards a night game, pubs near the ground & car park demonstrations. I could go on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SalfordOriginal Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Anglo Italian Cup, brilliant nonsense of a tournament - werent we unbeaten or something yet still got knocked out? Georgie Hagi one of the first superstar foreign players I watched play against the whites. Also the most bizarre Ref turnaround after he took what seemed like guidance from the opposition manager... probably not looking forward to getting on the return flight back to Italy with them all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc505 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Didn't Collina ref the Brescia game? I cant see many details about it online, Im sure theres a section on the Anglo Italian Cup in a Wanderers book Ive got somewhere. I think I remember reading that the attendance at our game in Pisa was 500, I wonder how many were Bolton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I remember reading that the attendance at our game in Pisa was 500, I wonder how many were Bolton From memory I'd say it was more like 300 or so, but I was leathered beyond belief. I've still got some crowd pics from the game - I'll see if I can dig them out for the gallery. Went to that & then England v San Marino the day after. Good days.
