1627349213846593539 | Bearing in mind the story behind the new stadium sponsor ...that as emerged in the last hour... Are you happy with the new name ...auntie Sharon has come good again Please read @MarcIles story before voting .... I can say I am more than happy with the TSC Stadium #bwfc | 4 |
1624540918983401472 | Dion’s hat trick ⚽️ @OfficialBWFC @MarcIles @TheJackDearden @darrylmorris #bwfc https://t.co/XJVz8NN9pe | 3 |
1626629810930712596 | This was the #bwfc team 2 years ago today when we beat Mansfield away 3-2 when our Arthur scored a late winner.Only 7 starters and 1 sub still with us out of the 18 players. Look how far are we come ⚽️ @MarcIles @TheJackDearden @darrylmorris https://t.co/MWiWWAOFYy | 2 |
1625568574663233573 | @MarcIles Side as expected. Strong bench with the excellent news George Thomason is back. And just a plea from me. If Kachunga does come on as a substitute, get behind him. No booing, no unnecessary comments. He's a Bolton player. He has served his suspension, so clean slate please. | 2 |
1625619165758234634 | @MarcIles Great times at Burnden. https://t.co/0bjpGVUtPJ | 2 |
1624506910639550466 | @MarcIles 5000th league game 5-0 5th prior to the match Santos number 5 Santos booked, 55th minute Santos born 1995 aswell as dion 1995 (only scorers) Gethin jones born 1995 (only assist) A LOT of 5s here 😂 | 1 |
1624758305192132610 | @JefferzWilli @OfficialBWFC @MarcIles @Turton_FC @LancashireFA @lancsamleague Excellent article. @gedboy58 is the guy with depth of knowledge. I’m sure he’ll appreciate the detail. (BTW my dad was Scottish Scout for BWFC in 1990s under Bruce Rioch, following him there from Millwall FC) | 1 |

1625639312246157312 | @MarcIles Ian Evatt from 2 years ago would have been telling the media we are the best in the world after the last 2 games 🤣 | 1 |

1626291780294524931 | @James_BFP 12 players (1 not on the bus) no player numbers, not knowing if we even had a Team, never forget the welcome we got @MarcIles https://t.co/GHFn0d0sEr | 20 |
1624697052348268544 | @MarcIles Having read Twitter from top to bottom, I’m amazed that there is not more recognition for Kieran Lee, yesterday. Both he and Shoretire in unison were unplayable. His best game in a Bolton shirt. Looked 25 again! | 17 |
1624466834387869696 | @MarcIles An excellent result. Evatt may have surprised us with his signing of Shoretire. And with Johnston, Thomason, Nlundulu & MJ to return from injury & Bradley & Kachunga (no negativity today please) to return from suspension, we are well placed ahead of these last 15 tough fixtures. | 15 |
