Barry Knight - A bald headed Prick who is supposedly a Referee.
Words cannot describe the anger I felt towards this arsehole after what could have been one of the games of the season - but which (due to him) turned into the debacle which was the second leg of the Play-off Semi's, I'm just about calming down now. What this singular dickhead has done to this club is unbelievable, to lose the possibility of a Premiership place through the poor performance of the team - ie in the Play off final against Watford, or just plain bad luck like when we were relegated in '97/98 is one thing, but to have it snatched away due to the sole actions of one inept, gutless coward is a travesty. For those non-Whites fans who may be reading this and think we're taking on the sore loser/Man Utd whinging type stance just look at these statistics: Nine Bolton players booked, Two sent off while not one Ipswich player was even booked, not even Magilton and three penalties awarded to Ipswich, need I say more. This man lost control of the game and also bottled it in front of the Ipswich crowd, I will be on the lookout to see if he takes charge of any games this season, because he surely should have been 'struck off' the refs list. This brings me to another point, why have they brought in this rule that if a ref is too incompetent for the Premier league then they get demoted to the Nationwide ?, do they think it only matters if a wrong decision is made against the likes of Liverpool, Man Utd, Arsenal etc ? if they're not good enough to ref the Premier then they're not good enough full stop, oh and just for the record - we would have beaten Barnsley in the final. UPDATE! - The wanker has actually been promoted to Premier league status!, did anyone see BEN article the other week?, there was a top quote from a BWSA spokesman (regarding the so-called 'death threats' sent to Knight) - "The people who are sending these could possibly be rival fans masquerading as Bolton fans..."
'Sir' Alex Ferguson - Very reasonable Manager of a well liked Team.
Now everyone knows that we're just jealous!, and thats why I'm picking on the nations favourite Football Manager, It's nothing to do with the fact he's a sour faced Scots bastard who's face would probably crack if he smiled, that he believes theres one law for his team of petulant, arrogant prima donnas and one for the rest of football. Its not due to the way he defends his players no matter how disgraceful their actions, nor is it for his constant excuse making and whining about 'Widicuwous Weferweeing decisions' when things don't go their way ( my personal favourite being the time they were being totally outplayed by Southampton at the Dell because they couldn't 'see' each other in that lovely grey strip of theirs), or the blinkered self righteousness he demonstrates and instils in his players etc etc, no I'm having a go because I'm really jealous of Man Utd and their fans, but aren't we all ?
Phillip Neville - Possibly the greatest defender England has ever seen.
I'll keep it short on this one, I wouldn't want anyone to think I've got some axe to grind against the filth, erm I mean MUFC. First of all I don't suppose he can be blamed for being completely shit and without any of the skills needed to play International Football, that is Satans fault ( see above ), what he can be held to account for is the way he hides for 90 minutes of a match only to pop up at the end and needlessly give away a penalty handing the game to the opposition and making sure we're out of the competition, he must have been given some tips from one of his teammates. In essence a shitbag and if KK persists with him and his equally shite brother for that matter, he's digging his own grave
Mick Hucknall - Great singer and Loyal Red.
This muppet has chosen more to represent the hoardes of celebrity hangers-on who claim to 'support' you know who, he's actually a rarity as he was born ( I won't say lives as he's probably not stayed in Manchester longer than it takes to get to Old Trafford from the Airport and back, since he made his money ) near the place. Why I've singled him out though is because of the mutual sycophancy between himself and the club - I saw an article in a newspaper where he had been invited down the Cliff for a private training session with the players, and there he was pictured, the tubby, pasty bastard in full kit attempting to play football!. Others who fall into this category are Zoe Ball, who despite her Bolton connections is a 'supporter', apparently she got into Football during Euro '96 ( honest! ) and decided she'd support United, can you believe that your licence fee paid for her and her assorted cronies to go to France '98 and watch the England games under the pretence of presenting her poxy radio show ? Other notables include the true born and bred Mancs - Gary Rhodes, Eammon Holmes and Patrick Kielty all of whom no doubt use their dubious fame to ponce free tickets, oh and Chris Evans also ( however he has the nouce to keep it quiet as he cannot afford to be any more unpopular ). These people manage to do the near impossible - to make the Gallagher brothers seem OK.
Sasa 'Judas' Curcic - We finally catch up with the big nosed has-been.
He was one of the few things worth watching during our first, disastrous term in the Premier, he had bags of skill and it was a pleasure to watch him taking on the opposition. The Burnden crowd took to him quicker than any other player before or since-"Sasa, Sasa, Sasa!" was the chant accompanied with the 'we're not worthy' bowing, we thought the feeling was mutual when after scoring he ran to the Burnden Terrace and kissed the badge on his shirt, this was the kind of passion we really needed in the days of the 'can't be arsed' likes of De Freitas and Sneekes. He showed his true colours though when the shit finally hit the fan and straight away he wanted out, pressuring Colin Todd to sell him on ( although I doubt the directors needed their arm twisting), then as soon as he's moved on there he was spouting shite - slagging off the club, the fans, the town etc something he's done ever since, even as recently as in the News of the World the day of the FA cup semi with Villa. I recently read in 'Loaded' that he was planning to give up football to concentrate on shagging - hmm... a bit of wishful thinking there on his part, anyway its been heartwarming to see his career go from strength to strength since he left us - Villa reserves, Crystal Palace, Motherwell, NY/NJ Metrostars and more recently on trial at Trashmere only to be rejected, just goes to show you don't leave Bolton on a bad note or the curse will get you ( Eh Arnar ?).
John Aldridge - Birkenhead based Scumbag.
I'm not even going to waste my time elaborating on why 'Aldo' ( Pictured left on Holiday with a couple of his players ), is hated so much by myself and all Wanderers fans, lets just say that his unsporting manner on many occasions the most notable being his gestures at the final game of the season '96/97 is due to the fact that while we may have our ups and our downs his team have never been, nor are they ever going to, go anywhere. I must admit I was gutted when they lost the Worthington final!, he wasnt doing much running around the touchline and dancing about that day was he ?
If anyone can think of some more deserving entrants into the 'Hall of Shame' then E-mail me.
Well, the nominations have been flooding in, all two of them, Keith (Founder and only member of the Staffordshire Whites) understandably wants to see our old gold 'friends' from the Black County represented, as well as Man City - because of the empty boasts eminating from Manchester regarding how they'll do in the Premier league. While
Steve, Helen, Nicola and Nathan (as did Keith) think that the totally unbiased 'pundits' from GMR, namely Jimmy Ragg, Wilf McGuiness and Paddy Crerand are worthy of a place, so perhaps they will be making an appearance soon.
