When it comes to the Old Firm, I find it difficult to decide which team I actually despise the most.

Whoever you decide, It's not healthy for any League to have the same winner 9 times in a row .... Well done Rangers !!

Too much is made of the Burnley thing, I think. He was an infant child when his parents moved away. Born on Scott Park Road, but then moved away ... his father was a Mining Engineer.

Astonishingly, despite Rovers' many Managerial changes during the Venkys era, Tony Mowbray is now the 11th longest serving manager in the 92 League Clubs .... However, our friends down the M65 have only picked up 1 point out of the last 21, and the BRFCS posters seem far from happy ! Could the end b...

Do your own, you can buy a kit from Smiths for example. If your in a union they tend to do it as a free of charge service. Also some great charities will do it if you make a donation to them.

Business I believe - went after the Brighton game but he said he intended being here overall 80% of the time

I know you were disappointed at the lack of contact from BFCitC to supporters groups regarding the " Clarets for Foodbanks " initiative, Tony .... has that issue been resolved, may I ask ?

Very good of them too. Nice to go in at half time ahead for a change. Some of those penalties were totally ridiculous. That is probably our luckiest triple crown ever. I had some sympathy for Ireland (except the red card guy) and Scotland, but none for that white lot. They fell asleep too often, pr...

I'm as chilled as those Liverpool supporters who were basking in the knowledge that Burnley's last win at Anfield was 47 years ago.

I probably shouldn't repeat this but not only have Fulham not won in 11 games, they have not won in their last 32 visits to Turf Moor, since 21st April 1951, to be exact. Attlee was in Downing Street, Meat, Sweets and Butter were still rationed, and Elvis was still in High School ....

Well! we've played our 1st choice team in the past few seasons, and still got a hammering, so even if we field our strongest available XI, we'll likely be on the end of a heavy defeat anyway.
