Hi guys,
I am a Bath City supporter and I'm currently in the process of trying to research the two FA Cup matches between Bolton and Bath in the third round in January 1964.
I am looking for any recollections of the games, any reports Bolton fans may have or anything related to the two matches.
I hope you might be able to help.
Good luck for the rest of the season.
Adam

Hi Adam Its not before my time I cant remember much about the game but i think we won 3-1 the main talking point about the game was the two very bad head wounds suffered by your number 5 and our number 9 (Wynn Davies )both went off but both came back and played to the end I think your player had 12 stitches and our player had 20 stitches and still bares the scar on his face both played a full part and davies scored the 3 rd goal , course men, were men in those days not like some today just big soft pansies , hope this is off some use to you nd thanks for the best wishes .

From the BigBathCityBid but I guess you’ve already read this
Bath City were managed that season by Malcolm Allison and had the likes of local legend Tony Book, ex-Sunderland & Scottish International Charlie (Cannonball) Fleming, ex-England & Portsmouth Len Phillips, Ian MacFarlane, Jonny Cartwright and Keith Sanderson in the side that day and the game attracted a crowd of nearly 14,000 fans. First Division Bolton, who included ex-England goalkeeper Eddie Hopkinson and household names such as Francis Lee and big Wyn Davies in their team, scrambled a lucky 1-1 draw against their Southern League opponents, but won the replay 3-0 at the old Burnden Park ground in front of 28,000
Me and our kid once went to Twerton Park to watch the Wanderes c Bristol Rovers (ground sharing for some reason)
