Thank you, Adopted S.

[Rovermatt]

Later, someone posed the question "are Rovers the worst team to reach the semi-finals of the FA Cup" ?

I would doubt it. Didn't Chesterfield get to a semi-final a couple of years ago? They were hardly superior to ourselves. What about Millwall last year?

Typical anti-Rovers nonsense.

Tell me, can you buy the F.A Cup?

Leave Cool Claret alone, it was only the other day she found her first grey pubic hair.

I think you'll find that throughout the late 60s/70s/80s, in fact throughout almost the entire history of our two clubs, Burnley have trailed on all accounts.

Not wanting to fall out with you either Den...but hmmm when exactly did you start supporting rovers?

According to him, and of course this could be more Dingle propaganda, we didn't play each other in the league for about 10 years in the 60's and 70's because we were in different leagues.

No surprise there you may say, unless you know that it was because we were in the OLD first division, aka Premiership and you were in the OLD 3rd division aka league 1.

'tis the truth, unfortunately

Almost the truth, Phillips account is more accurate. Of course the clarrot will hint at the and suggest they were in the 1 and we were in the third, but she forgets to mention not the whole 10 years.

Twas during these years that Burnley developed their mythical history and big club persona that they used to swagger around the lower leagues with.

Twas during these years t'clarrots were to be THE TEAM OF THE SEVENTIES. It is also the period when their arrogance had them come up with the song No Nay Never. Oh Boy did that ever ring true, just not how they had hoped though.

For 10 years Burnley were at a higher level than us. Now, what about the other HUNDRED or so years?

[Cool Claret]

Pardon me for answering the point in the post I quoted. Den said in the 60s 70s and 80s I was merely pointing out that for a portion of that time rovers were not in the ascendance......

The drog called this thread back to normal- and it is.

C.C. - I'll have to start reading what I typed before I post. I didn't realise that I'd said the 60's 70's and 80's. I thought I'd only mentioned your entire history

Burnley did indeed have an excellent side in the late 60's [i think. Don't think it lasted into the 70's, but might be wrong]. Infact, [whisper] I used to go on Turf moor around that time.[/whisper].

I saw the side that included ray Pointer in the early sixties and I saw a fair bit of the side that included Peter Noble, Leighton James and Paul Fletcher. They were a good team.

So tell your husband, you've met a rovers fan who remembers and admits to watching a good Burnley team

The rest of the 110 years you were rubbish though.

[Alan75]

I heard that whisper here, Judas

Don't call me den iscarriot, for nothing.

Well considering you think Leyland is subtropical I'll let that pass.

My good deed for the day.

[USABlue]

Well fairs fair CC, if you consider Burnley to be the centre of the Universe then Leyland can be what ever he wants. Me mum lived in Leyland for several years, when I went to visit I found it to be a very nice place, not sub tropical though I'll give you that.

[den]

The name Leyland, means low land. It's at sea level about 3 miles from the coast and bathes in the warm tropical breezes of the gulf stream.

Unlike Burnley that chills in the cold shadow of the pennines.

Hey, when global warming kicks in Den, I'll be living

Good pic of a packed Ewood taken by a Dingle in the Darren end........

Very nice pic. I wish we could see that more often. Ewood can look very very good when full. 31,000 is asking a bit much though.

Back to normal. Burnley fans arrested.

'Officers also discovered what they think is a cannabis factory"

What they THINK is a Cannibis factory, jeez, what could there be to give 'em a clue.

They've probably had to sample it too see what it is, and as it is, they now have to recover enough to work out what it is.

Or something....

Oooh a Crunchie..........mmmmmmm.............Crunchie

[Ste B]

Burnley fans will be seeing less of Ian Moore now, as they have agreed a 50000 fee to sell their "Star Striker" to Leeds.

[philipl]

Steve Cotterill is too good for Burnley!

[James No. 7]

Steve Cotterill is too good for Burnley!

Kylie or Britney?

Well, I'm a bum man so...

Oh right, sorry... [Panicked laughter] No, no, no! I mean you're either a boob man or a bum man and I'm most definitely a bum man, so I'd choose Kylie. Magnificent!

Speaking of Burnley, who has that signature where the Burnley children say they are going to visit the King?

I want to read it again.
