Gentry Day is Bolton Away - 3800 sold as of 02/03 (Confirmed)

Wouldn't have thought there'll be a great threat to the game from the weather. I presume they've got undersoil heating from their time in the Premier League and there isn't much by way of snow forecast.

Yeah, i must admit that i thought the same thing............

Weather for Friday and Saturday is looking interesting to say the least!

There is a possibility the game may not take place.

If the game is off will Gentry Day be the rearranged match, or will it be transferred to another Saturday game.

Be worth someone making a decision now for plan B, but who does this?

I'd say it depends when it gets called off, if it's just before kick-off then technically "Gentry Day" will have still taken place, bowlers donned, respects paid etc, even if no game to watch.

If it's the day before then surely it rolls over to the second choice in the vote...

However, as Notlob have undersoil heating then the only way the match is likely to be called off is if the carparks etc are iced up. But Notlob will no doubt be watching the forecast and will even pay a private contractor to grit the carparks and roads beforehand if it came to that to ensure the game went ahead.

Health and safety and the treat of being sued rules all.

Sunday, March 4. Barbados: 39F. Feels like 32F. Sunday night 23F. 20% chance of rain. Possibly 1 - 3 cms of snow. A mix of sun and clouds with increasing gale force winds.

Votes a vote so that’s that but poor in my opinion Bolton last time was worst Gentry ever

Where is everyone having light refreshments before the game ?

Anyone know what time the official coaches leave Leyland and if they are close to selling out? Due to low numbers amongst our lot a few power shandies in the Fox and Lion then jumping on the coach might be our best option.

1PM......seats available

1pm is early, are they all going shopping before the match

Alex Neil: “I know that it’s Gentry Day so it’s a big day for the fans and hopefully we will put on a performance for them. If we win I don’t mind wearing a bowler hat afterwards!”

Over 3,300 sold.

That'll be a sight for sore eyes.

Well spotted, John 🙂!!

The actual forecast is 'Viking, Forties, Cromarty, Dogger, Barbados, Fisher, Notlob, German Bight - Easterly gale force 8 increasing severe gale force 9 soon; rough or very rough; snow showers, moderate, occasionally very poor. Light or moderate icing. Imminent.'

I hope Ando and his Mrs pack their thermals 🙂.

Great to see managers embrace Gentry Day. Lets hope Alex is having to stick by his word come 5pm on Saturday.

North End supporters will carry out their annual act of remembrance for the 12th time when they make the trip to Bolton on Saturday. By Wednesday morning, ticket sales have passed the 3,300 mark for the away end, with PNE also laying on a fleet of buses to transport fans down the M61. Neil said: “I know this game is Gentry Day and so hopefully the fans will be there in good volume and good voice. “I have been told all about Gentry Day, I know it is a big day for the fans and the club did something with the pricing which is good.

“Like everything else, the football will probably decide if it is a good day out or a bad day.” There is a chance of Neil putting on a bowler hat at the Macron Stadium to match the fans – that will be result dependent.

The Scotsman said: “I could do with some flaps for my ears because they are freezing just now! “I will probably leave the hat but if we win the match, I might wear a bowler hat afterwards.”
