Bolton Wanderers Personalised Football Diary
A Terrific Gift Idea For A Trotter!
One of the founding members of the English football league, Bolton Wanderers have also gone on to win four FA Cups, including the first ever final held at Wembley in 1923. From Burnden Park to The Reebok Stadium, the team known affectionately as the Trotters have endured various ups and downs and seen legends such as Nat Lofthouse play in their colours.
We have dug up a selection of special moments from the past hundred years of the football club from our newspaper archives and gathered twelve reports together in a unique and conveniently sized Personalised Football Diary. Each month offers a tantalising taste of Trotters history, making these A5 Diaries a great gift choice for any fan of the club
Inside Your Diary
Your Bolton FC Football Diary includes the 2-0 FA Cup win against West Hamin1923, which would become known as the ‘White Horse Final’ and was the club’s first FA Cup success. Further FA Cup triumphs - against Manchester City in 1926 and Manchester United in 1958 - are other Diary highlights
Our featured newspaper coverage also captures reaction to the sudden dismissal of long-term manager Bill Ridding in 1968, promotion to the Premiership in 2001 and the moment Bolton Wanderers reached the Carling Cup Final in 2004.
These A5 Bolton Diaries additionally incorporate a range of other carefully selected games that have all been significant to the club in their own special way. Bolton FC versus Derby County in 1937 was abandoned due to an unusually high amount of fog and Bolton’s 3-1 win against Spurs was part of the incredible season of 2005, when the club would finish in sixth place and gain qualification to the UEFA Cup.
A 6-1 victory against Tottenham in 1996 was one of the most convincing wins of the Trotters’ recent years and the FA Cup clash against Stoke in 1946 will always be poignant for Bolton Wanderers due to the thirty-eight football fans who sadly lost their lives.
