I Was There

[Casino]

For the dark times, Aldershot home, Scarborough away, Soton Barry Horne, Wolves in 78, Black sunday 

 

For the good times, White Hot night, Wrexham, that Boro survival game at home, Reading play offs, Torquay Sherpa Van

 

For the obscure times, Darlo Bommy night, Plymouth away when they got promoted (about 30 fans), Kawasaki Frontale (4 fans plus 80 Nigerians cheering JJ)      

 

 

first game id missed for about 3 years

 

4-1 defeat, i think?

[zurichwhite]

Yes I think so, we might have been leading and Tommy Tynan scored at least one

[smeghead83]

Hats off to the ones that made the Grimsby trip on a week night in 2000 during the fuel strike. I missed out as the club only layed on 1 coach that night and booked up a week before.

Beating Munich 3-0 at Burnden Friday 22nd of december 1978, the noise that night was the loudest i had ever heard at Burnden, all the bolton fans to a man sing "Bolton 3 bastards 0 Hallelujah" wonderful a night i will never forget

Yep some night that

 

Back in the Stags Head Daubhill after and the joke box was playing YMCA all night to the lyrics 'Frank Worth ington's Magic'

 

But Blackburn away when we went up, Reading play off final, Munich and I also enjoyed Guimaries - Another good one was Huddersfield in the cup when we beat them 1-0 at theirs (27000 on and must have been around half whites). Then not forgetting Arsenal cup replay at Highbury and Liverpool/ Everton cup wins

[DirtySanchez]

Hull away in the league cup for the second leg after they lobbed tennis balls on the pitch

[Gumbo]

Love threads like these.

 

Shed at Chelsea when we went down

The shared stand at west ham

Arsenal in the cup

Pompey when we reached Europe

 

And many of those mentioned above

[Carlos]

Blackpool Freight Rover Northern Final, on the pitch, didn't see much sign of their hatred for us.

[Marc505]

Not many really unusual ones for me - Munch, Madrid and the 1-0 at OT in 2002 probably. Work to be done.

 

Maybe in years to come I'll look back on that 0-0 at Derby last season and laugh, because I'm not yet!

 

And maybe this season's I was there game will be this Tuesday night one in Ipswich

Southend away on boxing day for a noon kick off.

[bolty58]

Has to be Ewood for the promotion night and the 2-1 win at Old Trafford when Frankie scored a double.

 

I have never been as excited in my life as those two occasions. Absolutely unforgettable.

I still think that Derby game will forever live as the worst ever.

Anyone go to one of the Anglo Italian cup games away?

 

Was it Ancona away that was close to the San Marino v England fixture early 90's

 

I didn't make any but nearly convinced my Dad we needed to go

That one would be Pisa, when loads went up to the England game in San marino later. Me and my mate turned up in the team hotel in Ascoli just prior to chrtistmas 93.And boosted our following to twelve. Rioch and Todd in the reception looked at us saying where the fuck did you come from....free tickets and the offer of a ride ont  team bus to the game..Anyway the digs were to expensive so ended up in the same hotel as the match officals.........That was one top night as  they as they paid our large bar bill in the morning.....Happy days.....Hope we get some more sometime.

Burnley when Jim McDonagh scored

 

Walsall 8-1 when Tony Caldwell didn't stop scoring

It was Pisa in '93. & then the next day it was Sam Marino v England in Bologna (the one where Stuart Pearce slipped & they scored after 9 seconds). Me & a few mates went to both games. Good times.

What was it the owner said now. Something like they took more money that week when Bolton were there than the took all the previous summer
