The author:
Jeff Williamson has been a Bolton Wanderers fan from being a young boy and over the years become rather an obsessive about all things Wanderers related.
His family have been connected in a working capacity with the club for over forty years from the late 1940’s through to the 1980’s, though they had been ardent followers for many years prior to that.
His enthusiasm for Bolton has never left him and as he has matured in years, he has moved into the historical and memorabilia side of football history, which prompted him to write this account of their past.
