The shot lists should give you some idea of what the packages include.

It's an absolute treasure trove. I've never seen footage of the 1926 F.A. Cup Final with footage of Bolton supporters outside Wembley before:

Great stuff mate...

 

Fuck me,Des McBain looks dead in the Gamma clip!

Its about time ITV released footage of the Bolton games from the past it has in its archive. Some is already in circulation as a result of "The Big Match Revisited". Much of this is on You Tube. However, check out all the Bolton games that were covered and broadcast in the Sunday lunch time spot ... presented by Gerald Sinstadt and Elton Welsby. I'd love to see some of these games again. http://homepage.ntlworld.com/carousel/KickOffMatch.html

36 seconds in my favourite bit the Bolton player standing in front of the Manchester road stand which had did not change by the time of my first game 51 years later, int he background is the house on the Embankment where a couple of Bolton players were born, any old timers rememeber when that was demolished?

Yep, the replay. First match, David Hoggan scored a couple for us. There's a long forgotten name!

[Casino]

good player hoggan

 

last time i checked he was involved in youth football in the u.s

 

i think they equalised at the death of the first game

 

raimonndo ponte rings a bell...and no, i don't know what i had for tea last night

I think you're right about Hoggan being in the US. He was a good un'. I can't remember Forest's late equaliser but I certainly remember Trevor Francis scoring very late against us in the First Division. We were winning 0-1 at the City Ground. Had we held out it would have been Forest's first home defeat in some ridiculous number of games. Francis always scored against us!!

Went to the replay can't remember an awful lot except we were in the corner of the open end and I remember thinking great result against a team who had recently won the European cup, the rest of the 80s were a terrible time to be a White the club seemed to have lost all direction and the damage to our support base in the 80s must have been massive, it was very easy for fans to turn away from the club we were shockingly awful. Oh and Hoggan was a class act he went on to play and score a shed load of goals in the U.S. a wasted talent.
