Bolton build up

I think jacobs may start this one. He has to give him a chance at some point, having him on the bench and doing everything not to put him on will ruin him eventually.
 
"Wanky, wanky, wanky, wanky Wanderers"

I really do find it strange to understand why supposed grown men sing this. It's the sort of thing you'd hear in a playground full of 10 year olds. It's probably THE worst chant I've ever heard.

And - like being called 'Dingles' it really isn't offensive in the slightest. The Dingle thing doesn't even make sense, neither is it original. Yet Albion/Blouse fans who call Wolves fans this seem to think it's both witty and will cause offence. Erm, no? Football fans are very silly sometimes.
 
The Dingle family are from Yorkshire???

Much more appropriate to call Albion/Brum a load of 'Bennies' of Crossroads repute. :)

Indeed - which is why Blackburn fans call Burnley fans 'Dingles'. Makes more sense with the Yorkshire/Lancashire rivalry too. My Blackburn-supporting mate was quite puzzled when I told him Albion fans had started calling Wolves fans Dingles.

Yet they always seem so proud of the 'insult', thinking they're being very funny. It's like watching Jonathan Ross. He also thinks he's being funny when he's anything but.
 
'Dingle' is pretty stupid particularly coming from the residents of Sandwell, as for Blues fans it's normally 'yam yams', which i find quite funny as often i find myself being given something accompanied with the phase, 'eyam'.
 
I don't mind being called a 'yam yam'. I got called that continually in my old job but it never bothered me.

Though I did get called a Brummie when I started uni which I hated. As I ay a Brummie ay I.
 
I get a lot of Brummie shit at work, bloody northerners haven't got a clue!

My sister in law once referred to my eldest son as being a Brummie. The fall out wasn't pleasant.

Back on topic. I despise most things Bolton especially McGinlay and Lofty the Lion.
 
Although what happened in the mid-90's still hurts today, the fact is the way that club presents itself absolutely disgusts me. I hate their ground with a passion - everything a football ground shouldn't be, with commercialism so overbearing, two tunnels (WTF?!), ridiculously steep seating in the upper tier, it's next to a sodding retail park (I know that's not unique but I believe they were one of if not the first club to do that). Basically, they constantly spit in the face of traditionalism and no doubt view their fans as customers before they think of them as supporters (which again isn't unique to them, but the way they do so doesn't sit well with me).

Then you've got the aural AIDS spouted by pricks like Gartside who wanted a closed shop for the Premier League, getting rid of relegation so they could continue spunking millions on utter shit just to stay afloat in the big league.

And that is the main reason I can't stand them. It just so happens that my intense dislike of them is enhanced by 1995, McGitlay, Sneekes, Lofty the cunting Lion, Uriah Rennie, Owen Coyle, Mark Davies, last minute winners/equalisers denying us vital points, cheating, gamesmanship, atrocious decisions going against us.

Victim complex? Maybe, but combine all of those negatives together and it's very difficult not to look at Notlob with the same feeling I get when I see a steaming pile of dog shit on the pavement.

I've read this several times, & tbh think you're being unfair on the steaming pile of dog shit.
 
The reasons above and the fact I was out with my two boys in Darlington, which is about 115 from Bolton. There we are minding our own and my youngest is wearing his Wolves shirt (he was about 8) and a fully grown man in a Notlob shirt stands in front of him saying "Wanky, wanky, wanky, wanky Wanderers" and "You're not the real Wanderers" and other such shit. If I wasn't with my boys I'd of swung for him but because of that and the McGinley thing which was about the same time I really can't stand the fuckers

What sort of twat starts swearing and hurling abuse in the direction of an 8 year old?

Worth pointing out that I really hate the dog who left it too. If that helps?
 
If a brummie calls me a yam yam, I tell them its better than being a yo yo because that's how their dialect works.
It usually stops them in their tracks.
 
I'm making a whistle stop visit to UK for 2 days. Will be in West Midlands on Saturday - will any of local stations be doing live commentary ? If so, which ones - AM/FM frequency please.
 
Free Radio 80s or something like that if it's not on WM.
 
Free Radio have a few different stations. It'll be on one of these frequencies:
990/1017/1152am

I usually listen on DAB if at all so not sure which one it is.

If you are by a TV set with Freeview then the digital Radio WM matches are normally on channel 722.
