Fucks sake. Wanted to go to bed 40 minutes ago but stayed up watching #FirstDates waiting to see the ‘what happened next’ and they never showed it! Suppose we’ll just have to assume the Geordies threw their keys in to the bowl and cracked on.

In October 2020 (as in THIS SEASON), George Thomason played for Bamber Bridge in a 5-0 defeat against @ACFC1916 . Today, as he has been for the last few months, he was on another level. Wow. Take a bow all concerned.  #BWFC

@TalkingTurkeyWB @BBCMOTD @BBCRMsport No goal hanging was a massive bona fide rule. As was the goalkeeper twatting the ball as far away as possible for everyone to chase because they were pissed off at having to go in goal.

I’d almost forgotten how much of a wanker Neil Warnock is until about 3.01pm today. A team built in his image, little shithouse fouls all over the place then spit their dummy out when it doesn’t go their way. Epitomised by ‘Ten Minute Tomlin’. A very satisfactory afternoon! #BWFC

@theawayfans If this has genuinely been done by a Bolton fan then they’re an absolute idiot and have embarrassed the rest of us, particularly given our own precarious situation. Wish Bury all the best. Wouldn’t be much of a rivalry if one of us didn’t exist.
