Slowly re-discovering my passion for bolton

I know I am a shit fan, even when I was always interested in Bolton I was a shit fan.
But in recent years (since Big Sam left) I have felt no enjoyment or passion for Bolton. Sammy Lee was irritating, Mugson was annoying, Owen Coyle was frustrating as I liked him as a person but he was shit.
One thing I will say about gartside is that ever since Mugson is that he tried to get the most promising young managers and I too felt they were excellent young managers but sadly they weren't.
Lennon was an unreal appointment , how the heck did 'we' get him?
Now we are winning and have a manager who looks half decent I am starting to show an interest again.
Lennon looks like he could be the real deal.
Come on Bolton !

Hahahaha. Fuck off back to chelsea you suitcase obsessed bellend

Ffs, the good times must be back, they're crawling out of the woodwork!!

Funniest thing I've read all week! 

Thanks keegs. The only one who winds me up on here is him. Like the time he threatened to knock me out so i gave him my address and then i got a grovelling pm off him. Hes disappeared pretty quick again.

Just a wild guess, but is the rediscovered passion in anyway related to the fact we've started winning again?

Where's Mich Caine?

Is he dead?

Come now, Johnny - stop scaring away the posters.

Me.......im the one he wanted to put in a suitcase. Good luck finding one big enough i say

I realise this might be a bit unpopular but I kind of understand where Michael is coming from. A few years ago, round my 40th birthday I lost a lot of interest in football altogether not just us. I don't know why it happened, it just struck me that there were other and more important things to worry about. It lasted about a year and during that time going to games was a chore, something i did for my son rather than because I enjoyed the game. I got disillusioned with it all, most especially the fact players were on obscene money even if they were rubbish and with the fact the FA fell all over itself pandering to Sky and sponsors and didn't give a toss about fans at all or even football outside the Premier League and National Team. 

It took me a while to really rediscover my love of the game and the club and oddly enough it happened when i stopped going to games and refused to renew my season ticket while Megson was still at the helm. I don't go to every game home and away like I did when I was younger, in fact I often can't get to a match because of work commitments but I have rekindled my enthusiasm and love for all things BWFC. Even if that sometimes means criticising the club fiercely. 

I don't know if I'll ever go back to being at every match, perhaps when I retire and have the time I'll do it then assuming I can afford to but I definitely have my passion for the club and game back.

The difference Peter is that you are a genuine supporter whereas MB is a WUM. He can be quite funny at times but he is still a WUM.
