smeghead83 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Am I right in thinking anyone from the seated area could easily walk over to the terraced area and vice versa? I was sat (stood for 90 minutes) near the halfway line and quite a few seats were empty up that way for what was a sell out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burndens Bogs Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Stonewall pen imo, but the sending off was a joke. Our yoof do get a bit giddy at away games, but i don't see much harm in 'em really - we were all young and daft once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the descriptions from Micky etc suggest there's a problem. When seasoned fans don't want to go, and take the next generation with them, then something is truly amiss. What a shame.

Johnnyrotten Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 9 hours ago, Daveh said: Couldn’t agree more. I took my young son and daughter several seasons ago, they sadly had to witness this type of behaviour and they’ve never been back. They cried all the way home in the car, and the merest suggestion of taking them to a game now still upsets them. One day, these moronic idiots may have children themselves and will then possibly understand the repercussions of their actions..... But then again, that’s probably wishful thinking. That's sad to read. I've taken my kids (now in their 20s) to plenty of home and away games but when they were growing up we were in the Prem, so we hadnt small club mentality not jolly boys days out mentality, so the atmosphere was different and generally speaking we werent subjected to idiots. There was a few blips when free coaches were laid on (WBA springs to mind) which brought out the not rights. Dont hold your breath thinking they'll change with parenthood, you see them dragging their kids up to behave like them and teaching them that their behaviour is normal. 9 hours ago, Daveh said: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accrington laid on a good do but their ground is crap. Missed our goal as I was in the stampede trying to get in. The ref ruined the game with the decision. I couldn’t believe how quick he had the red out. That said, the performance was that bad he doesn’t end up the villain for me, that performance was pathetic. I had a feeling we’d lose as things had gone so well+a big following normally result in such outcomes. I couldn’t of envisaged that though That bit about the big following resulting in defeats...I'd forgotten about that, but how true it is. You just have to look at this season - Tranmere, Rotherham and Accy were our big sell out aways, that's 18 goals conceded then. But going back years and years, the bigger the following the worse the result, I think the 2-2 draw at PNE last season was our only point in about 3 years with a 'local' or 'sell out' game. Yet we almost routinely pick up the odd surprise result at the likes of Millwall, Bristol Rovers, QPR and Birmingham especially in night games when even less of our fans are there. 12th man my arse!

I didn’t see anything that could be classed as that. The reaction of the accy players surrounding the ref contributed heavily BBC sport telly programme said violent conduct in brackets when it flicked up They and sky etc get all this from the Press Association so not sure who decided it was without asking the ref Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domcarey1 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Days like Accrington are to be forgotten for all the reasons stated & would be enough to put off families. My lad & his pal(aged 13) however, were intoxicated by the theatre of the terracing, size of support, passion, drama, idiocy etc that they are now diehards. Forget the result & the bellends, the drug of BWFC is quite addictive, even though it’s a tough watch at times.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We suffered so many tankings at the beginning of the season, I think I have become desensitised to them. Still believe that we will be contemplating survival by the time we reach Easter.

royal white Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Took my lad (6) to his first game where he could stand up. He loved it regardless of utter gawps that were in there. I’ve Said it for years, We have the mongiest fans in the league, how we can call other teams fans is beyond me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Lofthouse Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 7-1. Sorry delayed reaction it’s just hit me, with the smirking Blackburn fans in the office.

You didn’t see the Adams family in the Accy end mum dad, lover and son all in unison both eyes looking in the opposite direction, throwing abuse at Bolton fans, easily the mongiest fans I’ve ever seen.

Roger_Dubuis Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Bolton fans misbehaving when the team is a load of crap is nothing new. In 1987 the fans were fighting with the police on the terraces when they lost at York and Scarborough. The problem is a well supported club taking thousands to tiny grounds and watching a pisspoor team get beat. It's not only Bolton either.Wolves fans were banned from away grounds for a time in 1987 because they had rioted at Torquay, Scarborough and Southend. Well supported clubs turning out wank teams at small grounds = thousands of angry supporters and trouble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
