well it’s in black and white so I stand corrected

 

I still think they are bigger When push comes to shove including away support

 

 

What have they ever won?

Posted

jack I was referring to support not honours

 

 

They might have won a League Cup. Trophies are a part of how big a club is. Not that I give a toss!

Support wise, they will have averaged more than we did in the PL in their 10 years or so

 

We've had more PL seasons and had higher finishes and all that

 

Dunno before that

 

About even for me, we've achieved more but they've got more fans

aye think that’s all they have won, there’s so many of these tables knocking around and no real accurate measure

 

Take Blackburn 3 top flight titles and 6 fa cups but are they bigger than us

Everyone gets bored of stagnating in the end.

 

This.  It will happen to all and any club that try to do what we did (or better), eventually.  Unless you can keep throwing City money at it . . .

 

That's the booby prize of English football now.  A few years competing at the top to then potentially be in a financial mess.

 

Burnley are doing it the right way it seems; fair play to em as well (a little sick came up then)

Seeing Wigan above Bury made me giggle.

 

Look at MK Dons. Hardly attracting massive gates but in 14 seasons of their being they're already ahead of both Wigan (39 seasons) and Bury (119).

Easily.

if you spoke to anybody else in the world (other than Bolton fans) then the answer would be yes - they've won more and we've spent fairly similar amounts of time in the top division (I think)

think it’s give and take a few years but yes both spent similar time in top flight

 

Even likes of Preston,burnley,Huddersfield and Pompey all won top division

I wonder if we will ever  do it in the entirefuture of football. Obviously it aint going to happen (barring a miracle) in any of our life times.

 

But what about Bolton Wanderers champions of England year 3025.
