Could Ukraine face Russia in a play off final, if RFU go through?

Thankfully not, different paths to their finals, Ukraine would play the winner of Wales v Austria and the Czechs or Swedes would face the absurd ghoul team

I'd be terrified of the future if I was a Gooner. They have no direction, no identity on and off the pitch and their disgraceful hounding out of Wenger is blowing up in their face. Mass exodus in the summer too if they don't qualify for Europe, then who knows?

Not saying it's anything in itself to do with the above, but it's very funny checkmate for our critics, that despite a million lazy "Brexit football" tweets, Dyche voted Remain.

Dyche, the racist, xenophobic bigot who signed/regularly fielded/boosted the career of such raving BNP members as Tendayi Darikwa, Junior Stanislas, Georges-Kevin N'Koudou, Aaron Lennon, Dwight McNeil, Marvin Sordell, Steven Defour, Johan Berg Gudmundsson... I mean, it's just obvious the guy has a "...

You mean by applying EXISTING LAWS it turns out men aren't the oppressed little snowflakes that pussies make them out to be? Shock horror! No, I'm on the left myself but I want to disassociate myself from double-standards crap like that which gives us a bad name (usually "snowflakes", "SJWs" or "th...

Chill out guys, maybe the tide is turning.

F91 Dudelange aren't from Britain.

Apologies if my last post was a bit tl;dr. I was just a bit too high on football and pop cultural passion.

More of that, only half the length and with a million times more coherence, coming soon....

The word "paki" is one i hear all the time. I live in Clitheroe, but still often visit Burnley (not just for football), Accy and Blackburn. I know many local people (mostly older and more working-class) who use "paki" insisting they don't mean any harm and it's simply short for "Pakistani", i.e. "D...

I don't mean to pick nits, but that's not our club's badge. (I don't think....I get the connotation, I'm not an idiot, but isnt that the borough coat of arms rather than the clubs?) It was our club's badge in the 80s and 90s but the current one came in around 2009/10, partly as a revival of the sam...

I'm struggling to understand the motivation of posters who trying to pretend this stuff doesn't happen to be perfectly honest. Care to enlighten me? I don't think anyone's pretending it ever went away 100% but due to the last few years' huge on-pitch success, people were scared to go public about r...

I experienced people using the N word on a coach a couple of seasons ago, I won't name the supporters club as I've chosen never to use them again.

Glad you responded to it, did you report it though?

Though quite how the male tampon above who blames Brexit for it reaches that conclusion really does beggar belief . If that was aimed at me I wasn't blaming Brexit for increased racism in football at all, but for it making different socio-political demographics and parts of the country bitterly dis...

The issue I have with our club being dragged into this latest racism debate is the whole town will be portrayed as racist. We'll just be that simple folk from up north, you know the stereotype; flat caps, whippets, “it's grim up north“ rubbish. Clubs in the North always come out of these debates wo...

Burnley is as racist as they come. That's something of a broad generalisation... Its part and partial of living here. Well if that's the case I'd rather move away from my town (near) Burnley and stop supporting our club, as I'm not really "partial" to that kind of thing as it goes totally against m...

What bandwagon ? He’s saying something disgusting that happened to him in Burnley. You seriously think the most important issue here is what people may think of the town ? It's fine to be annoyed at both. Most people think racism is wrong and sickening. The guy who did that to Henry is vile, whoeve...

I remember him tweeting quite loudly and proudly about why he was voting Tory in 2015.

Some guys behind us walking to the ground past the Cricket Club on Wednesday night started shouting "We hate Scousers!" "...and Pakis." My heart sank. I don't hear as much racist crap as in the early 2000s when the BNP won seats and we had the riots, tbh I've seen a lot more Asians on the Turf since...

It's not all bad news. At least you lot are famous

Berliners... Bastards in disguise!

Didn't we sign him by mistake when we were actually after Lee Camp?

Or was that Steve Howey/Lee Howey, or David Edgar/Edgar Davids.
