April 10, 201610 yr tLooks like Oldham are safe - so a reunion with Battle of Burnden '97 punkin' instigator John Sheridan is on the cards. What are the others positives? You're not allowed to say we might be in with a chance of the odd win cos it's too obvious. Fire away lads/ladies. This link will remind you of the BWFC you remember. http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football-wolves-give-up-the-chase-1284128.html Edited April 10, 201610 yr by RoadRunnerFan
April 10, 201610 yr Nowt. It's shitbdown there Don't expect it to be cheap. Do expect loads of Police hassle Don't wear your Suede adidas, they'll get covered in Piss (a lot more than you're used too!) Give yourselves a shake , you're going to have to smash some bugger on the face! Or. You'll be smashed in the face. Welcome back to the old days. Someone tell the Yoof before they're smashed all over!

April 10, 201610 yr This is the sweetness and light thread. No room for your negative vibes bro. Apologies, I didn't realise. It's beautiful in the lower leagues, no-one wants to have a pop at you because you were a big (in their eyes) club. They'll come off the local estates & won't care about your mummy & daddy bought designer labels, they'll laugh at your kerb dancing in bright noticeable coats & paint it with your young & impressionable claret! Other than that, it's all disco lights, cheap ale, expensive travel to backwater shitholes even your worst job wouldn't take you too! I loved it as a young man! I don't think Society Loved me for loving it

I don't think Society Loved me for loving it That's the spirit chief! Went out on the pop in Upermill tot'herweek, old Oldham boy unconvinced about Sheridan. Tried to convince him he was a good un' based on the fact he started the 'Battle of Burnden' which must make him reet, plus their results. Looking good for Oldham away next year.
April 10, 201610 yr Went to the preseason this year, no wonder we''re in the Shit on the field this year, May be livelier in a league game but I doubt it ????
April 10, 201610 yr Author Went to the preseason this year, no wonder we''re in the Shit on the field this year, May be livelier in a league game but I doubt it I'll be there with you and plenty others. I'd hazard a guess it might be a good deal 'livlier'. Pal at work Bradford, know KH from Harwood, one Shaker at work. Looking forward to it. Bring it on. Started in that league meself early nineties. COYFM.
April 10, 201610 yr This is a chance out new era of supporter to experience the utter joy of a meteoric rise as we did in the nineties. Cup runs, underdogs, backs to the wall, seige mentality. New heroes will emerge New places to visit New folklore to be written Whispers of the rise of Bolton Wanderers to be heard once again. Oldham, Rochdale, Bury, Sheff United, Scunthorpe, Port Vale, Chesterfield et al, your boys are going to take one hell of a beating* *(subject to the club getting its fucking act together)
April 10, 201610 yr Sorry but I just don't see anything positive about 2 league games against Bury. We rarely beat them in the league the last time round.
April 10, 201610 yr Based down South it looks like; MK and Charlton coming down with us 3 or 4 of Northampton, Oxford, Bristol Rovers, Plymouth, Pompey, Wimbledon, Wycombe, Exeter, Orient coming up Swindon, Peterboro, Cov, Southend, Walsall, Gillingham, Millwall staying where they are Some lovely days out there which will bring back a few memories ......
April 10, 201610 yr Each to their own. I'm up for it Never said I wasn't up for it. I'm just struggling to see positives at the minute Sure that'll change once the cleft palate mob show up
April 10, 201610 yr Never said I wasn't up for it. I'm just struggling to see positives at the minute Sure that'll change once the cleft palate mob show up Wasnt aimed at you tbf. If and its a big if someone can turn this round, we could be in for a good ride
April 10, 201610 yr Wasnt aimed at you tbf. If and its a big if someone can turn this round, we could be in for a good ride Hope so, I fucking love it when we win. A lot of the club's down there will be champing at the bit to give us a bloody nose every week. It would be good to dominate the league then we can take massive crowds everywhere. As has been said, some of our best away followings were in the lower leagues.

Don't forget Accy - they have a chance.

It would be good to dominate the league then we can take massive crowds everywhere. As has been said, some of our best away followings were in the lower leagues. Was discussing this yesterday. Will be a few hard ons floating about this league for us
April 10, 201610 yr Was discussing this yesterday. Will be a few hard ons floating about this league for us I know a few Shrewsbury fans and they have said we'd be the prize scalp on and off the field next season in that league. Which is why it needs to be a single season visit, because when they no longer give a fuck about us we have truly hit rock bottom
April 10, 201610 yr We've still a club to support which is a massive positive for me. Chance to see us play Cov after never getting chance to see them play each other with my Cov supporting mate who passed away 5yr ago. Plenty of local aways to go to with me dad. The football will resemble the roadrunner bids they show in the nsl
April 10, 201610 yr "I've been Southampton, but I never been Scunthorpe" I'm crazy with those kicks. Just call me Jean Claude
April 10, 201610 yr I'm looking forward to some good away days. Will be good to co-ordinate travel plans and arrive mobbed up at some of the backwaters and show them who's boss. A couple of early away wins would be nice too
April 10, 201610 yr Positives - I can't see any in all honesty. If we were going down fighting it might feel different but it has been a pathetic surrender on the pitch and a disaster off it. I can only see more struggle next season.
April 10, 201610 yr It's gonna be mint, can't wait to come out of retirement and get a few aways done stood on the terraces and relive the 80's, early 90's. Deano's rebuilding starts soon, we want that crazy gang mentality on the pitch to whet the appetites off it and make those days enjoyable. Some of us will struggle for tickets for some aways I can see it, every bugger will want em I reckon
