Agreed. @only2garners , can this be on the agenda please? I’ve asked this to be raised before as I just can’t fathom it… at least the de-Roversisation of Blues Bar they can blame on Sodexho.

To be fair, the league game is a perfect anniversary game without the amateurish add on.

Playing a team with a manager, captain and a few other players who left us directly or indirectly because of how shoddily we are run sums up our 150th anniversary very nicely.

I presume the owners will all be turning up to mark the event?

If they turn up I'll run on the pitch in frilly knickers

Did you expect more than a League game against Bolton for the 100th Anniversary?  We've done exactly the same for this Anniversary as the 100th and 125th.  All I'm saying is what is the difference in terms of an Anniversary match.  They have all been regular League games played on or as close to 5th November as possible.

As you say the 100th and 125th games were celebrated against Football League founder members, together with the books issued at that time. If a similar event had been put on this time, I don’t imagine there would have been too much comment. But, if the club want to celebrate by putting on an extra ‘special game’ then at least make it a game against a proper club with some history or relevance

We have been asking for years with no real answer as to its removal.

You’ll have to wear them now just in case.

I think the only logical explanation is spite / petulance / pettiness by the current 'power broker' keen to remove any positive things done by people long since removed from the club.
