It's just been on bbc news that MUFC could get a points deduction from the F.A. for the demonstration outside Old Trafford. Surely if this happens then the same should happen to Bolton for appearing at the Mazuma, and gathering unsociably outside their own ground ! Is any other motion not double standards ?

Can't see that happening to Bolton.

More likely any points deduction due to invasion of the Bolton Press Box on the match day NOT because they came to our Stadium and team ignored Police advice.

The FA & EFL were silent after the gathering in Morecambe and their silence, coupled with Bolton's 'thanks' will have encouraged their massing together on Saturday. The EFL & FA won't take any action because their silence encouraged them. Plus, whether we like it or not, the FA & EFL would rather Bolton go up than 'little old Morecambe', that barely even got a mention on the Football League Programme.

I want us to go up after Bolton bottle it. Although, hopefully their fans stop bottling each other.

I see surge testing is starting in Bolton in response to rising covid cases and people are being reminded that no more than 6 people should be meeting outdoors. What a surprise :o

Man Utd had fans causing bother inside the ground

Bolton had fans causing bother outside the ground.

Is the press box not inside?
