Dr. Feelgood Posted August 14, 2024 Posted August 14, 2024 "that was a petulant kick out". It was though. Bloody weird, proper park footy. He just decided to kick him, way after the ball, if full view of the ref, no other explanation. Even if there was history, or Matete had done/said something earlier ... & there's nothing to suggest that ... a very odd thing to do. He was very fortunate not to see a Red. Quote

I think what brought it on was that Matete & Thomo had a little spell of short passing to each other just before, I don't think they were taking the piss, but he seemed to lose his head after that.....even after the foul , he'd still lost it & was kicking off with anyone. Certainly deserved a red, & it was quite odd because the ref had been v fussy before that. Quote

matty2094 Posted August 14, 2024 Author Posted August 14, 2024 Yellows probably just about right IMO. Wouldn’t have been surprised if a red card came out though. Quote
Site Supporter Steejay Posted August 14, 2024 Site Supporter Posted August 14, 2024 Could have easily gotten two yellows there, one for the kick, and one for the attitude afterwards. Quote

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted August 14, 2024 Site Supporter Posted August 14, 2024 Two reds for that. One for the foul and one for being a cocky twat afterwards and pushing the same player. Rules say it was petulant though which lowers the severity. Quote
gonzo Posted August 14, 2024 Posted August 14, 2024 I'm gonna do that to the nearest traffic warden tomorrow morning and see if they let me off for being petulant. Quote

It reminded me of when I was a kid & we played various versions of 'Jumpers For Goalposts' footie till it was too dark to see. One we named 'Foul'. This was explained by its name. No gouging, biting, off-the-ball or punching but otherwise wtf. It didn't half speed up your passing & moving. That slice would have fitted it perfectly. Quote

That slice would have fitted it perfectly. Many moons ago, I played a game locally. Can't even remember what the sides were- maybe it was a charity do or something. Anyway, it turns out my headmaster from my primary school was playing for the opposition. I nicked the ball away from him in our own penalty area. Next thing, a person-volley from him nearly snapped my ankle. The twat. Later learned he was a bit "touchy" with the female teachers. Double twat. Quote
Mannyroader Posted August 15, 2024 Posted August 15, 2024 Some interesting stuff e.g. how small our pitch is. Quote

matty2094 Posted August 17, 2024 Author Posted August 17, 2024 Making a start now because I'm out tomorrow evening then off on holiday Monday so going to try and do what I can before I go. All posts taken from PREMATCH *how many tickets are we getting post?* Quote Dougie Davies said: 2500 That all? Quote Telford Dragon said: The Bolton CEO has come out and said home fans in the lower tiers... Wanderers make key decision on away fans at Toughsheet Stadium this season Bolton Wanderers have confirmed where they plan to house away supporters at the Toughsheet Stadium in the 2024/25 campaign. www.theboltonnews.co.uk Seems like the max allocation is 2100 ish. Click to expand... So they're breaking EFL rules then. Clubs should give 10% unless you have a valid reason not to, like building work going on etc. Quote Actually, just checked and I think they can get away with it as long as we get 2000+. Quote Disappointing, can understand it from there point. The majority of games in this league, 2100 will be more than enough for most away allocations. Unfortunately for us it will nowhere be near enough. Quote I guess that's why they call it the Toughsheet. Quote It’s 2,000 or 10% of capacity if it’s lower than 2,000. Quote They have an impressive sounding Fanzone.... *lots and lots of posts about a lack of a loyalty scheme for away tickets...* sounds familiar... Quote Only 2,167 away tickets seems a bit low given the stadium capacity? Are we looking at another allocation being made available later or so you reckon they are expecting a big home crowd? Quote Loyalty schemes are unfair. It makes it elitist that people who can afford to go to lots of away games take priority over people that can only go occasionally. The current system makes it possible for all to go to the odd away game. Lots our away supporters who would be rewarded with a loyalty scheme would not cross the road to watch us if it was free entry prior to R+R. Quote I’m surprised for 30 quid they haven’t offered access to a fan zone as well - or is it just Wrexham that offers such luxury? Quote Percy Sugden said: Is it likely Bolton will release anymore tickets? I’m surprised for 30 quid they haven’t offered access to a fan zone as well - or is it just Wrexham that offers such luxury? You get seats in a far superior ground in fairness and decent concourse where you don't have to queue from the 35th minute to get a beer at half time. It isn't right but yeah. Quote I’ve never been to the Reebok stadium, but it looks a decent stadium when I’ve driven past. Would some of our older fans call this a soulless new ground? Or is it better than that? It’s far easier to accommodate decent concourses and modern facilities in a relatively young stadium. We are hugely restricted for space in all of our concourses and this will always cause issue when at capacity - regardless how many servers we have behind the bars. Quote Percy Sugden said: I’ve never been to the Reebok stadium, but it looks a decent stadium when I’ve driven past. Would some of our older fans call this a soulless new ground? Or is it better than that? It's an excellent stadium. Quote The Reebok will open a few eyes in terms of making us realise that some out of town stadiums are really rather good Quote I have been to the Reebok a few times. I wouldn’t call it a soulless ground. Stadium is good and concourse is very good. Plenty of parking. But not for me. I think there is 1 pub outside the ground maybe some a bit further. If our owners look at this and think that is what we need I would be disappointed. Can’t wait to finally go and watch Wrexham there. Quote Never been the Reebok but looks a class stadium and seems easy to get to by all forms of transport. Certainly in a different bracket to some of the soulless grounds built over the last 20 years. Quote I had a season ticket at Bolton for a few seasons when I lived there and they were in the Premiership, at the same time I had season tickets at Wrexham. The atmosphere and match experience between 26,000 at The Reebok and 3,000 at The Racecourse was worlds apart, not in Wrexham’s favour. The Toughsheet Stadium will be the best stadium we have visited in the League for many years, I’ve waited years for this fixture and it will be good to go back on an equal footing. Quote Bolton biggest crowd last season was against Portsmouth 25700 so looks like this fixture could very well beat that. Just shows the pulling power we have Quote Hightown Brymbo Red said: Bolton biggest crowd last season was against Portsmouth 25700 so looks like this fixture could very well beat that. Just shows the pulling power we have Its the first home game of the season. Think it's more to do with Bolton than us on this occasion. Quote mattwxm30 said: Its the first home game of the season. Think it's more to do with Bolton than us on this occasion. Possibly but last season there first home game attendance was 20143 so that figure has already been beaten and still another 3 weeks to sell more tickets Quote mattwxm30 said: Its the first home game of the season. Think it's more to do with Bolton than us on this occasion. Well they had 20,143 at home to Lincoln first day last season, so it's about us if it's over 25,000 Quote Back of the Kop said: Well they had 20,143 at home to Lincoln first day last season, so it's about us if it's over 25,000 Probably more to do with making the play off final last season and expecting to kick on again this year. Quote *in response to Wanderlust* Just been having a quick mooch on your forum...jeez your lot don't like us one bit do they? Some real snide, nasty comments on there.... Quote Just looked at that thread on your forum. Some of the hate is jaw dropping. Then there's the usual drivel about when Ryan Reynolds gets bored and bubbles burst etc. I think we might get spanked on Sunday though. Just got a bad feeling about it. Quote I found that Bolton forum I was on about earlier in this thread. The theme's shifted slightly...I've just been laughing at some of the comments on there re: Wxm & Wales in general, and esp how we all take part in that old chestnut of changing from speaking english to welsh 'whenever an english accent is heard', lol... Your man 'Cheese' is saying what a load of crud it is, tbf to him. Now I'm not saying it's never happened anywhere in wales, but like he says, not around here it won't! One poster reckons he was in a pub in Johnstown and when he ordered at the bar, "everyone" around him started speaking welsh! There just aren't enough welsh speakers in & around Wxm for that to happen collectively! Quote Some sad bastards on there. Hope we batter them now, McClean gets a hat trick and celebrates by wiping his arse with a Bolton scarf. Quote It will probably be the biggest crowd Bolton will get this season....Bigger than their local derby's..What a pull little old Wrexham have Quote Wanderlust said: First home game of the season, nice weather hopefully, and a bunch of new signings being shoehorned into a new team with regulars being sidelined by injury so there's a lot of interest. Bear in mind we have around 17k ST holders.... There's some ace comments on your forum fair do's. Been laughing at your lot's proficiency in the welsh language ...couldn't be arsed signing up and all that palava (wish there was a one-for-all footie forums sign-in option, and any fcukin about/abuse etc and your out on your ear!)... but there's some decent posters on there tbf...

RoadRunnerFan Posted August 17, 2024 Posted August 17, 2024 (edited) The one about Wrexham being a bigger crowd than our local derby's 🤣 Yeah your probably right pal, our current 'local derby' is an even more extreme example of a Johnny come lately nuevo riche arriveste set up than your mob.

tomski Posted August 17, 2024 Posted August 17, 2024 Seem quite balanced. Fair fucks. It’s a good story. Tomorrow just get the points and don’t let us down Bolton. Despite all the hype, this is a win on paper. Let’s see. Quote
