Who is our most famous fan ?

I was asked by a Chelsea fan, who was our most famous fan. This got me wondering, and I started to look.

The first person I saw, who I wasn't aware of, was Corrie's Sean Tully, (Anthony Cotton). He was born in Bury, apparently.

We all know the usual ones :

Vernon Kay
Sarah Cox
Paddy McGuiness
Peter Kay (?)
Amir Khan (?)

Who else is there?

Robert Shaw..played Red Grant in From Russia with love and Quent in Jaws. The winner though, surely has to be Natasha Whittam, doesn't it?.

Is Sara Cox a fan? I seem to remember some interview years ago when she said she supported ManU!

I used to sit behind Stuart Flinders off North West Tonight at Burnden Park and the first few seasons at the Reebok.

One of Mcfly or Busted support Bolton as well.

If you asked the 12,000 or so Bolton fans that turn up for the first game against Derby who is our most famous fan a high percentage would say Natasha Whittam.

Moan all you like, but I am bigger than Peter Kay in Bolton.

Moan all you like, but I am bigger than Peter Kay in body weight.

Fair play for admitting it!

Bill Maynard? I once saw him sat in the stands at Burnden Park but I just assumed he was a supporter of the opposition although I can't remember who we were playing at the time.

Stuart Flinders looks like he may have been a rugby player at some time or another. His lugholes look like they have been through a mangler.

Amir supports United but pretends to support Bolton 

Isn't Peter Kay the same? 

Nat is probably the most famous followed by paddy mcswiggings and that guy from mcfly

Bill Maynard was a Very good friend of Frank Worthington, and could be seen up and down the Country watching Worthy for his various clubs.

You miss the point of the thread.

Emma Forbes is a Bolton fan, as was her late Dad Bryan.

Not sure who her Mum supports but she's dead good at making the washing up liquid last for ages.

Victoria Derbyshire is a bolton fan too.
