I hadn't realised that on Saturday I am visiting the newly named University Of Bolton Stadium. An improvement on the drably named Macron Stadium I guess. As an 80s music fan my favourite stadium name remains Accrington Stanley's Wham Stadium.
 



Fuckin awful place in the middle of nowhere, unless you are Martin O’Neil and your hobby is site seeing crime scenes cos you are close to seeing where Ian and Myra carried out their work.

Even their own fans hate it.
 
Everywhere has a university these days , even Trumpton & Camberwick Green. And Bolton University , where you can get a degree in steeplejacking presented by Fred Dibnah , spends public money on sponsoring a financially irresponsible football club. World's gone fuckin mad.
Ps , the Brady's favoured Saddleworth Moor , east of Oldham , not Horwich , which is west of Bolton.

And I hadn’t realised Bolton has a university.

This was what surprised me too!
 
This might seem a daft question and I’m missing something, but why is Bolton written backwards sometimes on here? Never understood that?
 
“Mum, Dad, I’ve got a place at Uni”

“Brilliantl, you’ve worked ever so hard, where are you going?” Harvard?...... Yale?........Oxford?.........Cambridge?,,,,,”

“No.. I’m off to Bolton....”
 



My favourite stadium name? The Tony Macaroni Stadium, occupied by a lower league Scottish side I CBA to google because they would pale in comparison to this glorious name.

I wish Fürth still played at the Trolli Arena
 
Nice to see Bolton are associating with a bunch of winners. Latest university league table:
Sheffield 30
Sheff Hallam 69
Bolton 126
That's out of 131

That is of course the home of Livingston FC. The MK Dons of Scotland; shit team, shit place, shit ground (Yes I'm sad enough to have been) and sponsored by a bang average restaurant. Marc McNulty and Stefan Scougall being the only saving grace, oh and Snodgrass, but he's a grade A cock, so probably doesn't help.

The distance from Sheffield to Saddleworth Moor is similar to that from Bolton to Saddleworth Moor. I wonder if the Bolton fans say similar things about us when they come to Bramall Lane, "F*ckin' awful place, close to seeing where the Yorkshire Ripper carried out his work".

I'm not keen on the stadium though, I'll agree with you on that.
