Although you very seldom see men smoking pipes I always associate the smell of pipe smoke with sitting in the Manny road seats.
We then started going in the Lever End.
As I got older and my dad dropped off I'd go in the Burnden Paddock or Embankment till they built that monstrosity Normid.
How far we have come.
I sat in Manny Road stand from 1970 onwards. My seat was behind my Dad and Mr Mitchell, deputy head of Bolton boys, both avid pipe smokers. I never saw a goal live through the fug, just had to believe the crowd cheers. Good times.
