There is an FM called Bolton Fan, is that who you mean?

I love the Rebok! Been there loads of times. Our budget has only allowed that hotel once, we normally stop at the one the other side, the cheap one by the roundabout. Alas I can't read the full title on m'phone so can't answer your question.

Yogi, that's probably who I'm thinking of.

 

Joe it's not my place of choice, in all honesty the reason we're going leaves me feeling I'd rather be at home 

Disley is our resident Bolton Fan, Cinds. We do also have a lady called BoltonFan who is one

Amazing. Someone is actually using it!

 

(It costs the club £2million in losses per year by the last report)

Bolton have a hotel attached to their ground?   I thought Norwich were the only club to entertain such a small-time 'revenue' stream!

 

Looking forward to Bolton giving the Canaries another 3 points in a few weeks' time.

 

There's a crappy hotel where a proper corner infill should be at Carrow Road, so it should be like a home from home for Bolton fans.

 

 

I understand that Sheffield United have a hotel too, Have Chelsea had one for years? There must be lots of other clubs that have done that as they have the idea that it's a nice revenue stream !!!

Hey it wasn't by choice.  But seeing as we're here, can anyone recommend good shopping close by?

There's a very big Sainsburys at Crystal Palace (Selhurst Park) . The staff there are unbelievably rude though!

Soozy  if I wanted Sainsburys, I'd just nip down to Throckley, it's the nearest one to work.  

 

As for rude staff, is it not cos they are all left over from when they took over the Co-OP?

 

I wish I had took a pic of the guy in Throckley Sainsburys week before christmas.  He was all red and white like santa, but gay as in velvet cowboy.  

It depends what u mean by good shopping! There's your typical retail park the other side of the ground. But Horwich is isolated. Maybe you should look to your left, get on a train, and pop into Manchester. Don't forget your umbrella, wellies, sou'westers etc.

They could get on the train into Bolton as well, its not a bad place for shopping and only about 7 mins away on the train.  The retail park is okay as well

I bought me iPhone in that retail park. Excellent opportunity to compare prices n offers. I like the park v much. However IMO it's not suitable for yer seasoned store bag shopper.

Thanks Bolton.  Mr Cinds is going to be in a meeting most of the Saturday, so I need something to do, and shopping seems like the ideal thing 

 

I will be mostly looking for shoes and dresses.

sou'wester   I don't have one of those, but I do have a jaunty hat, will that do?
