They'll be looking to avenge their 2-0 away defeat at Burnley.. we could get a tanking!

Informative as ever 666

Does anyone know why they call themselves "The Trotters"?

5s 666, great read and laugh on a Monday morning,

And before any Bolton fans get on their high house and take the usual exception, its only pre-match tickle and done for every team, so don't be getting those knickers in a twist.

666,thanks i really enjoyed it ,a lot more than you will enjoy tuesday,

Vidal, I always assumed that "trotters" came from their name Wanderers. Why Bolton and not Wolverhampton became trotters is probably because Wolverhampton became Wolves. No one thought that the Bolts was a decent name I suppose. The trotters name has nothing to do with the foot mutation that many native Boltonians suffer from.

No knickers in a twist here. Well-researched and amusing (although the supposed mercenaries listed did very well for the club).

We're called the Trotters as our pitch used to back onto a piggery.

Will Bolton Wanderers change their name to Junction 6 of the M61 Wanderers to reflect their location.

The ground always looks like it has imploded and the flood lights are only standing as a matter of faith.

Top hole 666. A triumph.

Championship banter > prem banter any day of the week

crackin article pal

Interesting that they're sponsored by Reebok, they're ground is the Reebok, yet their kit is made by Adidas.

Strange.

Very good 666.

"During Big Sam’s bung-ridden reign" - you won't be getting any more interviews with Big Sam now 666!

As always, your best work on JA606 is saved for these Handy Guide posts.

"Used to back onto a piggery"?

Is that really true? If so, I can't help thinking more imagination might have been used.

"The Swine"
"The Sow's Ears"
"The Porkers"
"The Scratchings"
"The Slow-Cooked Bellies"
etc

Surely time for a re-branding?

Just a quick check on the web and you will see that Reebok is owned by Addidas, so not that strange

Whos rattled the rams cage. They didnt worship Megson once did they?

Good banter but must say its a bit rich for a club that collected fewer points than on a driving licence the last time they were in the prem

"Megson"? What are you on about?

Good read, cheers la

Megson did some commendable work quite near here, yes

Anyone who relegates Forest to the third tier deserves credit

Megson

Not a bad article but I hope tomorrows scoreline makes you cry.
