Shouldn't that be ''My fellow Clarets and I''

or at least ''Me and my fellow Clarets''

Touche, my literate friend

[Kelbo]

Guess that would be the 59/60 Division 1 Champiomnship (when it WAS division 1) Won at the last game away to Man. City, but as it's a league not really won againnst any one team.

That's why we have the retro style shirts and badge for next season, the 50TH anniversarry.

Since then we have won Div 2, Div 3 and Div 4 also the Charity Shield and the anglo Scotish cup. F.A. Youth Cup as well

Whats the 4th Division? we have never been there

Why would you wear a kit celebrating something that happened 50 years ago?

I would be embarrased personally.

Yeah, we'd never do that.

Not even to celebrate our centenary.

[The Prof.]

Nothing but admiration for Jack Walker and what he did for his club. Of course it hurt but time is showing that he not only invested heavily but was also astute enough to build an infrastructure that could ultimately be self sustaining.

Hats off to you!

[1864roverite]

Once and for all

Burnley are not our RIVALS, they are the enemy

[yorkyclaret]

Well you've only 36 years to wait.

[deryck guyler's spoon]

Well you've only 34 years to wait.

If only it could be that soon

[yorkyclaret]

If only it could be that soon

Quick work Deryck, thought I'd changed it in time.

[OhmiBRFC]

Well you've only 36 years to wait.

I like to think we've more class than that.

One for you guys to pour your bile and bitterness on.

Bearing in mind you probably agree with everything we're doing.

Not adding any bile, but Sam, where's the logic in the article when it mentions this scenario:

"And if the worst does happen and the club are relegated, then a prudent approach to life among the big boys will ensure a much more stable base from which the club can attempt to bounce back the following season."

So are we likely to endure a "groundhog" season, year after year after year.........?

Bradford, Norwich, Leicester, Leeds, Newcastle, Southampton and 'established Premiership club Charlton' can tell you about the alternatives.

Groundhog Day is a great film isn't it.

[ABBEY]

Good film ? aye when it was 20 years ago.....mind you its just got the premier in bumley .

[dave birch]

Bradford, Norwich, Leicester, Leeds, Newcastle, Southampton and 'established Premiership club Charlton' can tell you about the alternatives.

So this is your logic, eh Sam? A series of failed Premier league clubs.

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

Err, I think that was the point he was making. Best hope for the Dingles is to yo-yo, make some dosh and then establish themselves. A takeover would help.

err, how many are in the prem? That was the point I was making

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

Err, once again, that's what he said. He'd rather yo-yo than "do" a Newcastle/Charlton etc etc.

[dave birch]

Err, once again, that's what he said. He'd rather yo-yo than "do" a Newcastle/Charlton etc etc.

so, how many of the above mentioned teams have managed a "yo yo" and stayed up (Barcodes excepted)?

Jeez, adb< I'm the one that's been on the lash for a while, it's only lunchtime in your neck of the woods

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

Ah, I get you now.

I blame the lack of sleep.

[SD4E]

Quality!

I remember being gutted when you beat a select Old Etonians XI to win your sixteenth consecutive FA Cup in 1704.

Jesus, talk about clutching at straws!

Well done though, it takes a blinkered individual to be able to completely ignore all the facts- thats quality!

rovers outshine the clarets on all fronts,

trophies, no of season in top flight, more derby wins etc, and are proud to be England's most successful town team.

as someone else just said, take it over the last 50/60 years if you wish.

oh no, Rovers still win.

you will be forever in our shadow my claret friend, so probably best if you put a wooly coat on, it can get cold under there.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

I think without doubt the crux of the matter is that our lesser neighbours do find in rather hard to except that FACT that Rovers have always and will always be the bigger,better supported,more successful and more prestigious of the two clubs.

We are indeed the most successful town club in the country and its said with great pride .

Those envious green eyes have always shone brighly down from the Clarrott and cobbled end of the M65........

[unluckymorton]

Now you know how lucky you are to be considered fit to be our rivals.

Rivals? To be rivals you must be able to pose a threat towards us. I don't see that being the case, maybe some years ago when there was true rivalry, numerous season in the same division playing at the same level, but not any more.

You obviously enjoy living in the shadow of the superior club from the other end of the M65 and dream of one day emulating our run of seasons in the top flight. Otherwise you morons wouldn't spend so much time on another club's supporters website!!! I wouldn't dream of registering on dingle.com and shooting the sh!t with halfwits from the dingledome....

[SamDingle]

Man Utd are our main rivals...

As for living in a shadow.. move with the times kids. We're level pegging now with it all to play for.

The dingle.com board is far too cerebral and sophisticated an arena for all but a few on here.

Stick to creating amusing combinations with the words 'inbred' and 'yokel' for a while yet before stepping up a level.

That's like saying we're level pegging with the likes of Man Utd & Chelsea. That's certainly not the case.

I hear the dingle.com board is actually a board on a window of a town centre pub that you and your cousins chalk on from time to time. You really are evolving in your dark, grim corner of Yorkshire.
