377 - Bolton Wanderers And Not a Lot Else

Gary and Chris are joined by special guest Emily this week to look back at the Bolton game.


You know what that means - a long show. It's worth it, though - we've waited a long time for a win against Bolton - in fact, aside from the 2020 5-1 victory against their youth team during their crisis, we haven't actually beaten them in the league since 1985.


Well, we are waiting no more. We're looking back over six goals, a red card, two people falling over, a lady showing her bra and some terrible weather. All that and not a lot more on this special episode of the Stacey West podcast.


Up the Imps!
