I fucking hate them

 

Every bolton fan will in 5 years

 

FACT

If we stay in the same league it will be our biggest game of the season and they will become our proper rival.

 

Folk will always hate DMB but to consider them a rival is lunacy. Unless they sink like a stone,shed their global brand and become like us that is.

Blackburn will ALWAYS be the rivals for me - similar sized club, been similar in terms of quality of team over the last 10/15 years, been going for promotion with them in the late 90's early 00's too.

 

Natural order will be restored with Wigan soon enough like it has with Tranmere. They might be in the ascendancy at the moment over us but I couldn't give a toss about them. I hate Burnley, Wolves & Tranmere more

But will they be a genuine rival eh?

Julian and the Gonch are correct

Wankers! *

 

 

 

 

 

* wigan not them two

Julian and the Gonch are correct

Wankers the pair of them

 

I propose we employ this tactic from the start on Saturday:

I think it's a generation thing.

 

Those of us that remember Springfield will always see them as a non-league entity awaiting the inevitable collapse & return to whence they came.

Bunch of nomarks.

 

Younger one's that have grown up over the last decade might start to see them as a growing rival.

 

If they don't piss off egg chasing again, I fear this may grow.

 

I used to know lots of Wigan lads that were into their football & so followed Bolton because Wigan was a rugby town. The teens of today will follow Wigan, unfortunately they've come a long way in a short time.

theres half a dozen league teams nearer to me than wiggin

 

so they can fook off being rivals

I'm 44 and Bury is bloody miles away

Edited by no balls

It doesn't though really

 

How do we ignore them, all not go on Saturday?

 

The point you miss is that if we aren't up for it Saturday it gives them more ammunition

 

We don't play Bury; they're not sharing our space in the media, in people's consciousness

 

You ask a random young person if Bolton and Wigan are dissimilar as clubs and most would say no

 

Sad but true

 

 

The problem is they keep turning up in Bolton after everyones gone home potting women, picking off smallgroups running their shitty flag up outside Bolton town hall and basically acting like a set of cunts,

yes they are an irrelevant little club but they have a set of fans that are despicable in the extreme.

Fuck Wigan Athletic. Set of cunts

Agree with all of this

 

I went to Springfield Park when we had 3 sides of the ground

 

BUT it's 2014 and they are rivals

 

If they want hate, let's fucking give it them

 

If someone completely irrelevant like Consett Town joined our division and kept ballooning at the Reebok etc, pretty soon they'd be rivals

 

That's how it works

 

How do you think the stuff with Tranmere and Wolves started??

Need to show them who is boss, might just derail their play off push.

But will they be a genuine rival eh?

Don't be daft.

 

To be genuine you have to never play each other,never be in the same league and have no reason whatsoever outside of football to dislike each other.

 

Our true derby is Radcliffe Borough.

Jules is quite right.  Whether we like it or not they are no longer an irrelevance.  If they want a rivalry they can fucking have one as far as I'm concerned.

I think a lot of folk are in denial when it comes to Wigan being genuine rivals.

 

Wiggum's reet.  They're certainly no longer an irrelevance (in the way Bury now are).

 

No-one else really gives a toss about us.

Wigan away certainly had a bit of a hate filled atmosphere. It might only be temporary but they're definitely this generations wolves, tranmere..... Bury

fuck em, I hold the little fuckers in contempt.  end of

They are good side with a good Manager.

 

We are an average side with a poor Manager.

 

Needless to say we will lose.

I don't think there is much between the teams, the difference is Rosler has come in at the right time and the initial upsurge you get with a new manager has continued, my view they have peaked will plateau and miss out on a return to the

premiership.

I'm disliking Wigan more and more every passing year, Dave Whelan is a fucking wanker.

 

I'm not really that arsed about Burnley for some reason, but cannot stand Blackburn and Tranmere

I don't see the logic

 

they are more than established in the upper reaches of the leagues

 

they ain't going back down in a hurry

we were playing them at burden and sprngfield when i started going i'm all for this rivalry and I've only ever met one wigan fan in my life, at college (in wigan)

 

incidentally, my old man has seen horwich rmi play wigan in a league game, dosen't change the fact the fuckers won the cup last year and are the semis this

 

die die wigan wigan die

I don't see the logic

 

 

 

Where the fuck does logic come into it?  We are talking irrational hatred here. 

There was definitely a moody atmosphere around wigan at their place, like it or not they are becoming a rival and their young lot really hate us, 2 years ago they were insignificant, now much more so imo

Where the fuck does logic come into it?  We are talking irrational hatred here. 

 

 

good, it's about time we had a genuine rival

 

however, I still found myself wanting them to beat City in last season's FA cup final and the tie a few weeks ago, so I'm not at full blown hatred yet (I still dislike City far more)

 

but having a City lejund as their manager, well, it's all falling into place

 

and I don't want them to go up, so we can play them again next season

After the Bolton match, Wigan's next 4 league matches are all at home (Leicester, Leeds, Millwall, Reading)..

If we beat them, and then Leicester do as well, that will be 3 defeats on the spin.

It matters.

Blackburn and Burnley for me , Wigan I dont give a shit ... maybe its an age thing, still what us to rip them a new arsehole when we play them, but dont hate them
