Whitesince63 Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Well done to Latics fans for reaching their Crowdfunded target, whatever you think of them you can’t knock the job they’ve done in trying to save their club and they haven’t finished yet. I say good luck to them and I hope they get their takeover done shortly so they can concentrate on the season ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you'll find most Bolton fans would say the same nowadays. No time for em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your right about losing clubs , and for genuine fans and football in general it is always sad , but on the other hand any sympathy is tempered by the antics of some of they're fans when it looked like we were going to the wall.

I used to go on a Leeds website seeing the abuse they got off other fans when they reached rock bottom, every club have dickheads spouting bile, I think being Bolton fans we are far better than that.

It's similar to the home nations thing , I used to like to see them all do well until you realise they glory in our downfall , you then form a different attitude towards them..Regarding the Wigan Business I probably wouldn't want them going Bust , but I'm certainly not losing any sleep if they do or not. I'm afraid regarding their fans ' you Reap what you sow' . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BWFC_LOVE Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Genuinely believe that a good 60% of Wigan’s fanbase were United/Liverpool fans before Whelan bought them top tier football. That combined with their obsession to create a rivalry, ‘Bolton’s going bust’ chants. Fuck them entirely. Anyone who thinks otherwise, I’m absolutely baffled with.

I do think a lot of this "rivalry" stems from our relocating from Burnden in 1997 to the Reebok We literally moved as far as you could move from the centre of Bolton without going over the town border - into Wigan - our stadium is nearer to the centre of Wigan than the centre of Bolton Am sure at the time the Post Office fiddled about with postcodes to keep the Stadium in Bolton Just think how we would feel If say Manchester City had said no to the City of Manchester stadium and bought the land at Over Hulton where the Amazon place is now ( off M61 Junction 4 ) and built a stadium there and ensured technically it was in Manchester. I dont like Wigan's fans and I dont see them as "natural " rivals, to me , generational thing , will always look towards Blackburn , Burnley Preston Blackpool and Manchester United given our History.

I went a couple of years ago when Barrow rocked up, it was middle aged men scrapping with the young scrotes in the Prenton pub, a mate got jailed for a year, last August the same pub was packed with Bolton.

Was always going to have a BL postcode. Think the debate was whether it was in Horwich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck Egg Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 It couldn't have anything other than a BL postcode given it's in between Lostock, Westhoughton and Horwich. This nearer to Wigan town centre claim. If true, there cant be much in it. It's certainly a lot quicker driving to Bolton from the Reebok than it is to Wigan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
