Gavin Ward I think

Ward, but wasn’t it 0-1 1-1 1-2 and then 2-2

In the home end for this one along with hundreds of other Bolton fans. They didn't like it. But they did nothing about it.

Lee Jones equaliser? 

Looks like whatever the decision is that we will be facing these again next season.

Is this the one were Aldridge went mental when they equalised   or was that the League cup Semi .

I thought Ward  came on very late in the game?

very late, purely to get his 10th game and winners medal

last game at burnden 23 years ago today

Their equaliser was probably unstoppable but with hindsight, you would have put ward on as a striker

I think you're wrong Matt. Aldridge celebrated us not getting the 100 points 100 goals like he'd just won the World Cup

Didn't we get the whole end? Tickets were sold the Saturday morning after the Charlton match. After saying goodbye to Burnden queued up there for tickets the very next day.

Yep, the whole end behind the goal. Still wasn't enough. There were hundreds of us in the main stand along the side. Particularly after our second it felt like half the stand was up celebrating. Something else the bindippers have probably harboured a grudge about over the years.

Probably both tbf. Certainly remember him doing laps of the touchline in front of Allardyce when they scored their second and third in the League Cup semi. 

Aldridge is an absolute arsehole. Despise him still

I think your right , that second leg performance is a contender for the worst performance list.

Plenty calling for Allardyce to be sacked at that game.

Played Cambridge away in the FA Cup the following Saturday and won 3-1. Eidur came on as sub and scored a classy goal. On the away fans terrace a kiosk sold bacon butties. No better marketing ploy than the smell of bacon cooking.

They won plenty of plaudits Cambridge for bacon butties.  We got the last ones that day - glorious and a good away win as well.

Horrible HORRIBLE revelation just appeared on Twitter that Campo idolised Aldridge when he was younger.

It's a sad day.

Awful, but I'm making myself believe the decision was based purely on him being one of the first foreigners to play in the Basque country and on his goalscoring record.

There's no way Ivan would have idolised him if he knew he was such a massive cunt.

Friend of the wife's said he knew Aldridge and would get a freebie for me for the game.

Turned up at the ticket office in my Wanderers top and said I was there to collect a ticket from John Aldridge. The looks I got were unbelievable.

Problem was the ticket was in the home stand. Don't know how I survived.

that was the day after my wedding...…….  stayed in the honeymoon suit at the buemount  buemount  road 

went down for breakfast morning after and all the team where there having there pre match meal 

Buemount?

That's an orangle version of Beaumont
