cain Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Just received this text from a mate who lives in and supports Bolton…..It may help some of our supporters How's it going pal? If you know anyone that is coming to the game against Bolton let them know there is nowhere to have a pint around the ground, there is only one left open. If anyone coming by train, stay on the train to Chorley 7 mins, great place loads of pubs. Train back drops off outside stadium at 14.29. If coming by road Westhoughton or Horwich both around 3 miles from stadium but loads of pubs. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnchanter Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Loved seeing Hollywood Bowl rammed last time with people from Sheffield who just fancied a quick game of bowling despite the many signs in the windows saying 'no football fans'. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in Bolton and my mate runs a local Connie club (Over Hulton Conservative Club) his partner does the catering so food could be available if you let them know in advance. The club is situated between J4 and J5 of the M61 (Bolton ground just off J6) with loads of parking and only a 5 mins dive to ground. If any supporters or supporter clubs want to stop off I’m sure they would be welcomed but you would need to tell them you are coming. Their tele number 01204 61384 ask for Andy Karen or Nicki and mention that Rod recommended the club as an ideal stopping place for visiting supporters. PS - I tell Bolton supporters where to stop off when we play them at Hillsborough. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or a £40 odd taxi which takes about half hour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morganowl Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 sales really struggling just over 2500 sold down to 520 points for probably the easiest game to get to with a massive allocation . are we that fed up already i thought this would sell out easily . i think we might only sell 3600 or so and have 1600 empty seats 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
