Match Day Thread Bolton v Leeds Utd Match Thread

Hence the reason I got out. Used to love England, honestly can't say what its like now but it was horrible when I left.

 

It's worse now

 

One of the most memorable matches I ever attended was a Partick Thistle match with my youngest, who must have been about 10 at the time. Can't even remember who the opposition was. What made it memorable was a row of gay fans close to us, and their antics. We were in absolute stitches from beginning to end. I have heard some abuse in my time on the terracings, but never like this. It was your usual football abuse, but delivered in the shrillest, campest voices you've ever heard, and viler language than I could ever hope to achieve (and I'm world class!). And yes, when you looked over, many were indeed delivering the abuse Larry Grayson style, with hand on hip & the other one limp-wristedly pointing at whatever they were abusing.

And do you know what? I and the rest of the crowd loved them & agreed with every vile word they uttered. Bottom line, they were fans, had a voice, & used it. No favours sought or granted. No abuse aimed at them (although they earned it from the opposition). Would this happen at ER? If down to the fans, no problem at all. Their problem would prolly be the stewards who would chuck them out for their behaviour.

 

Good to hear you enjoyed that particular match day experience WJ.

Will you be emailing [email protected] to invite them to the next meet up ?

And elland will you be contacting them with an invite onto our boards ?

Things could do with freshening up a bit on here...although I guess for some the Millwall ping pong is all the excitement they can handle.

 

You do like your Ping Pong Jammy, perhaps you do protest too much ?

 

I do enjoy the odd bit of ping pong Eric...it's just the long rallies that grind me down.

 

Elland's ears will be pricking up - possible new board members!

And Brissie will be jetting over for every meetup!

 

its improved since

 

I saw wot u did there.

 

Priorities

 

Can't see anything but a home win for Bolton in this.
Leeds far weaker than the team that only won 1 of their last 8.
Bolton far stronger than the team that won 8 of their last 12.

Bolton under the management of the experienced Phil Parkinson, Leeds with a rabbit staring in the headlights.

3-0 Home win

 

Keep taking the pills Trigger, they may help. But in such a severe case of dillusion I'm not sure. I shall pray for you

 

There you go again - using that 'T' word! How am I supposed to sleep when I'm splitting my sides?

 

How long are you out there champ? We go tomorrow for two weeks, cards have arrived and I'm going to miss the first two home games going to tour round Latchi and Polis Sunday AM to see if I can find a bar showing the Bolton game!!

Anyway, have a great trip and enjoy the wedding

 

Two weeks, between Aya Napa and Protaras, some of the family are there already, 34c at 5pm yesterday

 

Put a log on the fire if you are cold or buy a doona
