jayjayoghani Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 You could be right Duck Egg. The 3-1 at Tranmere was so sweet, given it came right in the middle of Granada's masturbatory behaviour toward them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green genie Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Never let it be said I won't share the joy ON THIS DAY: 22 SEPTEMBER 1984: Bolton Wanderers 7 Argyle 2; a personal nightmare for 'keeper Geoff Crudgington, whose horrific 7th minute blunder set the example for the rest of the team to match. A comedy of errors followed, and with 15 minutes to go and bottom-of-the-table Bolton five up, a finger injury forced Crudgie to play up-front alongside Tommy Tynan, Gordon Nisbet taking the 'keeper's jersey for the final two goals.

I remember this game, season after we thrashed Walsall 8-1. In my early days of watching us, I thought this was the norm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember this well - after all, it's not often the keeper plays upfront. No often he has a surname like Crudgington either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it was the 4th or 5th goal where George Oghani took the ball in our half and seemingly dribbled past the entire Argyle side before squaring for Caldwell for an easy tap in. Iirc it was a close 3-2 at half time that game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember this game too! From memory it was our first win of 84/5 after an abysmal start. Can remember Geoff Crudgington playing on the wing. Bolton v Plymouth games are a big deal in our family. My Dad and half the family have been in the Navy so their second team is Argyle. An uncle of mine who lived in Laira and Tamerton Foliot in the 80s became a Plymouth season ticket holder while still being a Wanderers fan. In my time the Burnden Park and Home Park Bolton/Plymouth fixtures have always been home wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to remember seeing Peter Shilton in goal for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shilton was indeed in goal for Argyle that day. Two seasons later he was playing a handful of games for us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted September 23, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted September 23, 2019 Strangely, I can remember exactly where I was when the result came through. Wasn't there that day, but was in the car with the family crossing st Peter's way on Bradford Street on the way into town. Weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I will try to get that one done. The quality is pretty poor. I think its a combination of the standard of the camera and the abysmal floodlighting at Springfield Park!

paulhanley Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Right I've finally got my act together and uploaded another video. A treat for those whose memories extend as far back as our promotion season under Ian Greaves, 1977/78 Spring had come around - just about the time in the previous two seasons when Division 2 promotion pushes had begun to falter. This time it was more certain. An awkard derby home fixture against Blackpool was negotiated - a 2-1 win with goals from Peter Reid and Paul Jones. Good, sharp football from Bolton on a boggy pitch. Never a pen for what proved Blackpool's consolation. Of note that a late chance was missed by Jeff Chandler, who of course spent much of the 1980s playing for us. This meant we completed the double over Blackpool after a solid 0-2 win at Bloomfield Road over Christmas - which is still the last occasion we won there. Let's hope we set that straight this season. A really shit following on the Embankment from Blackpool - which at the time was split in to two - home fans on the Manny Road half and away fans on the Burnden Paddock half.

Love the tape up The Embankment to separate the fans I think that tape was there to create a no-man's land between away fans and the fence down the middle. Then for the following season and the years until Normid there were two fences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dances over Wolves' was the next shirt in that particular line IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
