I'm thinking of starting a rival thread to this and the other rival thread, are you with me or are you intending to be another one of my rivals if I do?

Count me out. It would just be another thread on which to be bitch slapped by Nat. Sometimes I think I should just keep my mouth shut.

There is an ongoing rivalry between pies (Wigan) and pasties (BWFC) that is as controversial as it is passionate. Notwithstanding the debate about which is better to eat - and therefore which is the better football team - meat product inspired fights frequently spill on to the streets and pubs of both neighbouring towns.
At BWFC we have the North Family Stand named after our sponsor, long-established local pastie manufacturer Carr's who also extend a discount to fans which some of our more tightfisted ST holders take full advantage of by ordering home deliveries of boxes of the frozen delicacy.
At Wigan, their stupid mascot is a pie named Crusty.
Or to be more accurate, a random actor wearing a hubcap with a cartoon face painted on it.
However, the contract to supply pies to the DW Stadium was controversially given to the Clayton Park company based in Accrington - in other words a ringer. Conclusive proof that BWFC is a far better football club than our gastronomically-challenged neighbours.

Not much rivalry anymore but that doesn’t stop right-minded Boltonians calling out the self-serving, monetised, posturing poseurs for what they are.Natasha Whittam wrote:It's 2022. There is no rivalry with Man Utd.

Calling all Bolton fans - which clubs are our rivals? A request for our help from Loughborough University. Would be great if you spare Conor a few moments with his questions and also a RT @OfficialBWFC @MarcIles @LionOfViennaSte @TheJackDearden @ProudBW @DanBarnesJourno Thanks!

Lets face it Sluffy, any other 'rivalries' are mere flotsam compared to the real one with the Rags which actively endured for 25 years whilst the Wanderers were virtually a permanent member of Division 1. Only Arsenal had stayed in the top division longer.
It remained relatively quiet during the wilderness years but re-ignited on every occasion the Wanderers reached the top tier. The lack of knowledge of its origins must in, large part, be attributed to the Beeno (the Bolton Evening News now the Bolton News) though it had been the BEN that lit the blue touch paper in 1939.
But remember also that the Beeno was so ignorant of Bolton Wanderers finances over the last twenty five years that it falsely claimed that former chairman, Gordon Hargreaves, funded the building of the Reebok at the very time the club was teetering on the brink because of its inability to repay a mortgage taken out by Dean Holdsworth on the security of the stadium. There wasn't a grain of truth in Marc Iles' claim which only served to prove how clueless the Beeno was and had been for years about the critical financing of Bolton Wanderers.

I do hope you stick around, Conor.
If you want to know about balance sheets you could check out the Loughborough Uni library for Sam Allardyce's book, 'Accounting and Finance for Dummies'. Search for it under 'Fiction'.

You can take a BSc course in Accounting and Financial Management at Loughborough Uni. So it shouldn't be too difficult for Conor to find someone to explain to him why the Reebok Stadium's only worth £3million and the Intellectual Property £10million.
