Ewood Spark Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Is nobody going to enlighten me? Are you being serious? Do you not remember our run to the FA cup semis a couple of seasons ago involved the minor inconvenience of seeing-off our 'nearest and dearest' after a 5th round replay?

Fife Rover Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Are you being serious? Do you not remember our run to the FA cup semis a couple of seasons ago involved the minor inconvenience of seeing-off our 'nearest and dearest' after a 5th round replay? Of course I remember that one; I was sitting in the CIS watching it! But from the tone of the previous posts I had got the impression that people were referring to some encounter from further back, and I knew it was not the time before the cup replay, which was in the promotion season when we beat them 5-0 and I was there for that as well. Hence the confusion; if people would just include subjects and or objects in their sentences then it would be immediately clear.
longsiders1882 Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 I've emailed this to the club, bearing in mind how un professional it is to publicly run down your employer, whichever team you support. I do hope they can find this Gav character and get shot.
Ricky Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Longsiders, Gav doesn't work for Burnley FC. It's bad enough him having to work in Burnley but I can absolutely 100% guarantee that it isn't for the football club.
longsiders1882 Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 sorry missed my smiley there Twas not I who claimed he worked for the club though....
DudeAbides Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Sounds grim indeed http://boards.footymad.net/mboard/fmb.php?...;mid=2134076063
longsiders1882 Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 mountains and molehills - though after our run its hardly surprising.
SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 0-1 Leicester....... 1 win in 18 for the Clarrots! PLEASE STAY STEVE LAD.
ABBEY Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 its not their fault..its the yellow ball haha
Fife Rover Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 Am I the only Rovers fan that does not get any pleasure out of the present situation the Dingles find themselves in? I hate to see any club going through a spell like Burnley are at the moment; I can remember when Rovers went through the same (well not quite as bad) sort of situation as we headed for the old 3rd Div many moons ago. Besides they are our neighbours (and friends?) and I really wanted them to get promoted this year so we can renew our age old rivalry in the RIGHT WAY on the pitch. There is absolutely nothing else in football that can compare with a Rovers v Burnley or Burnley v Rovers game. Especially at Christmas! Seriously, I mean every word of it!

Well I don't care about em. If a future 'Team Lancashire' is to be avoided and BRFC be successful in the long term the only option is for our close rivals to steadily fall by the wayside.
LDRover Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 Dunno if anyone noticed in the telegraph last night (or if it's been mentioned elsewhere on the board) but there were selections of the online debate printed. Under the Burnley section regarding their dismal run there was one particular quote that caught my eye - "We are going down!" by S.Cumley no less!! Was it tongue in cheek from the sports editor or did it really slip through the net?
pleasure Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 0-1 Leicester....... 1 win in 18 for the Clarrots! PLEASE STAY STEVE LAD. my bumley supporting mates have had enough. the team he has now is his own creation and they've grown tired of his excuses and the dire football. over the past few weeks, I've heard a couple of SC's interviews on radio lancashire. they've had me in stitches. the guy is so negative and defeatist. he never answers a question, deliberately goes off at tangents and always turn the question back on the interviewer. the other night, he just walked off, without saying a word, and left the interviewer hanging. the board wont fire him, cos they cant afford any compensation, but he may walk out *AT THE START OF THE SEASON, I STUCK #50.00 ON THEM BEING RELEGATED! keep up the good work, steve (PRAYING).
ABBEY Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 *AT THE START OF THE SEASON, I STUCK #50.00 ON THEM BEING RELEGATED! keep up the good work, steve (PRAYING). im praying with ya...luv st ABBEY
ABBEY Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 might as well keep all the crap in one place ..special mention for nob ends attendence last night..a team going for promotion ...11601

If a future 'Team Lancashire' is to be avoided and BRFC be successful in the long term the only option is for our close rivals to steadily fall by the wayside. Theno: As you well know Bolton, Burnley and PNE have all had spells in the basement division of various lengths. None of this however made an iota of difference to the Rovers fortunes. Having them all with us in the same division does at least guarantee (or rather it did) a large gate when we played each one of them.

None of this however made an iota of difference to the Rovers fortunes. Thats cos when they were in the 4th we were in the 3rd and with a dump of a ground! Every other kid all over Lancs were looking for heroes and had either a Lpool or a MU bag / shirt etc.

No, I think jim feels the same way. Buggar where does that put you. Personally, I'm loving every minute of it, I could give a toss, I hope they don't win another match this season. I find amusing how early in the year the hill trolls were taking the mick out of Sunderland, how superior Burnley were, heh heh egg on the face again. Load up your buckets and spades dingles it's off t' seaside for your local derby. Unless Blackpool happen to come up, in which case they are left with no rivals, shame init.
ABBEY Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 yuo have gotta pity em more classic dingleish after the run they are on and there gates hahah they still take the pish out of us hahaah and compare last night to trelleborgs and that they will again rein supreme over us...fife have a read.

Yes just had a read Abbs. Great stuff EH? They are all so busy slagging each other off that they can't muster a decent put-down for us between the lot of 'em!! Oh and I loved that one were some Dingle was trying to get the rest of them calmed down by warning them not to wind us up too much because they have not won in 14 matches!
USABlue Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 Don't worry, the clarrots have bounced back in style with a stylish 0-0 at layer road. All the talk now is of having turned the corner, poor hill trolls. They are all excited about a goaless affair at Colchester, this after trash talking us after a similar scoreline at Emirates. The words reality and Dingle can not reside in the same sentence
SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 It all just makes you wonder what goes on in the head of your average Clarrot,can you imagine what would happen if by some fluke they did ever again manage to beat Rovers?..........mass hysteria followed by total Police lock down of the town and curfew!! Being bitter doesn't really come close as an explanation does it!
broadsword Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 0-1 Leicester....... 1 win in 18 for the Clarrots! PLEASE STAY STEVE LAD. hahahahahhahahaaaaaaaa. heheheheheheheheheeeeeeeeeee. hohohohoohohohoohooooooooooo! don't usually bother myself with Burnley, so I wasn't aware of this. But very amusing. Weren't they in the top 3 early in the season?
SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 I just might be slighty out with the figures there! :ph34r:
