As Chris FGR has said, the only way of breaking into the elite is being owned by a country these days. Best Bolton could hope for is being a mid to lower Prem club.
Still it would have been nice if they had won last night, pretty much the only time I've been rooting for you in two seasons...

The more this thread and others are bumped the funnier it is looking back, that the Football Club Most Deserving of Success™️ had ever found themselves at this level.

Why are you on this forum, apart from the fact that nobody on the League 1 forum answers you except 1 or 2. If you, understandably, have no friends then work on your personality and social skills.

Looks like Exeter are joining the tin pot club list by not taking a supporters coach to Tuesday’s away game at Colchester.

Not sure if this is classified as tin pot or not but a few of us yesterday having to take photo's of a 'QR Code' on the wall outside the away end at Bratfud trying to purchase tickets before realising that it doesn't work if you have an android phone??
Then being told to find a signal so that we could sign into the BCFC website to buy a ticket and, after giving them all my personal details to register, only to find out later that the email with the tickets on had gone into my junk mail which I can't access on my phone? So I was let in on the 'invoice' email which hadn't gone into junk. Nightmare, but would have been a lot worse if they were more of us.

It's great all this technology, but people need to realise that not all of us have got it or even if some have, we're not familiar in how to use it!!!!

That doesn't make sense, QR codes work on all phones.

Worked all season for home and away support. Northampton roll into town and all of a sudden nothing works.

Ah but we are running one to the Women's FA Cup match at Eastleigh.
Changing times...

So it turns out that really it’s the quality of mobile phones in Northampton that are tinpot.

We have produced a kit for our 125th anniversary based on what the club thought was the club colours from our first year. Turns out it was probably based on a bad colourisation of the original b&w photo, thinking it was light blue and brown coloured instead of white and claret. The club after having produced the kit with hummel, have since accepted that there are

'varying accounts but remain committed to the chocolate and blue kit as that was the information they had at the time'.

...Despite not actually communicating this in public. The fans however, are loving the idea of this kit and with the time and money already put into it, its actually going ahead. I wonder if the fans would actually 'love it' if they knew they weren't being told the whole truth.

My dad saw us in our debut season and can confirm it was blue and brown. So get over it.

↑ an example of our fans that don't care about anything apart from signing a 20 goal a season striker.
