Legacy On Your Sons.

Well i brought my own son up to be a good Bolton fan in the 80s in pubs and trips when he was a kid, i think he knows the crack now.

It must be a proud day for every father, when their son or daughter utters those timeless words...

He lost his head son, he lost his head

If you have not taught them 'Who's that dying on the runway...' then you are all shit fans.

it should be the tune on the mobile over the cot :thumbsup:

There's some future for the bwfc kids, my 2, bears, mountskippers, Brixtons to name a few all similar age

harry s , future top boy.

harry s , future top boy.

 

He is a future asbo :)

My lad is more fanatical than me. Besides the tatt he got when he was 14 etc. he SMS's me with BWFC news all the time - often before I know what's happened.

 

No doubt in my mind that if we had never left Bolton, he would be a regular WWays game attending notreet.

 

Proud.

Good lad, i think being a young Bolton fan around here gives you a bit of a cult status in these days, when i was younger i got laughed at.

Completely out of left field and fuck all to do with this thread but, the missus is a dental nurse with some Italian origin.

 

Eyetie walks into the surgery on Saturday morning. Born in Trieste, moved to South Africa as a nipper and now resides in Perth.

 

Sez to her, 'Northern English accent? Whereabouts?'

 

She responds (and she does this all the time and it drives me fucking mad) 'Near Manchester'.

 

Him, 'I went to Uni in Manchester. Loved going to the football in that area'.

 

Her (assuming) ' Which team - Man United?'

 

Him, 'No. Bolton Wanderers. Love the Reebok and the club. Was never away when I was up there'.

 

It then goes off into an excited gabble including 'I'm from Bolton', 'My husband is Bolton Wanderers daft - even has the club crest tattoo', 'They call him Bolty because he bores all the Aussies to death prattling on about the Wanderers endlessly'....................etc.

 

I thought this was fucking great. A lad with no connection to Bolton, from a foreign country, living in Manchester and choosing us. I don't give a shiny what his motives were (living on this side of Manc, guaranteed a ticket etc.), it made my day when I heard the story. Shows that there is hope.

I met a couple of brothers in Kent who were Bolton daft. I'm just pleased when I decided to be a footy man I didn't strangely pick Gillingham or Charlton!

Top story, having my son wearing his Bolton shirt on holidays wearing the top in Barcelona in the 80s and Lisbon and getting folk shaking his hand makes you proud.

Made freinds with some dutch kidson holiday via the unifying powers of Richard Sneekes
