The Bolton Game You You Regret Not Being At

As a money grabbing 17 year old twat the night we beat Charlton at the last game at Burnden I was collecting glasses in town. Crompton's Mule to be precise. I still hate myself for it. I also missed the play off win against Reading as I was on a school trip to Spain.

 

These still hurt.

 

Regrets?

I did not go to that game but I'm sure I saw highlights on tv the same night, can any one remember that?

 

Highlights are on here somewhere.

 

Are you talking about the game at Newcastle or the game at Leeds?

all 3 games were televised

 

Can anyone tell me if I've seen the 1st replay highlights please?

i don't think you have

 

Thanks, now can anyone find that game please?

All the Euro aways, but especially Plovdiv and Munich. Couldn't afford it first time around, and then second time around my lad was only a few months old so couldn't get away with it, though I did manage all of the home games.

 

Wasn't allowed to go to games until I was 10/11 and even then it was only if I could tag along with neighbours etc as none of my family are Bolton fans. Can't even begin to list the amount of games from probably 1993-1996 that I used to have to sit and listen to on GMR and wish that I was at the game. Reading play-off final, the league winner at City and the last game at Burnden definitely spring to mind on that score, especially as I'd been allowed to the odd game by that point.

Preston play off final

 

I've been to Watford and Villa at the old Wembley, Middlesbrough at the Millenium and Stoke at the new Wembley but my Dad was pretty ill around the time of the Preston Play Off Final. I had offers to go with friends but didnt want to leave him at home on his own watching it, so didn't go.

 

Although I regret not being at the game, it was nice to watch us get promoted with the old man, and I know he appreciated it.

Can anyone tell me if I've seen the 1st replay highlights please?

 

The first reply highlights WAS shown on the night of the game - I didn't go to Newcastle (shit fan) but was there at Leeds

Is that the game where cars were abandoned on the M62, I've been told. Before my time. Shitfan.

Yep there was a burst water main near Elland Road; we parked miles away
