It appears so, apparently a few lads have kicked off in barmby fudge as the prices of twix's have gone up 20p since the last home game.

They'll be telling tales of how they took over the Tesco escalator, conquered the Superbowl 2000 car park and ignored the little red man at the pedestrian crossing for years to come.

It's been a while since I had the pleasure of travelling on it, sad to hear it's seen better days. Spent many a minute crawling up the thing, gazing toward Pendle, thinking about food or how much bother I'd be in if I forgot something. One of the pleasures of Burnley that machine.Goody1975 wrote:I wish someone would take over the Tesco escalator, the ******* thing has been out of action for about two months.

You see I wouldn't arrest anybody for Football related violence this season. Quite the opposite in fact, I would present them with the ultimate accolade of representing our country abroad.
The 2018 World Cup in Russia to be precise. Whilst there they can go and have a ROW (said in Danny Dyer accent) with them crazy ******* with the gum shields in and MMA gloves on.

Re: Trouble already in town?
Wasn't that you "wanted" to brawl when younger - it's just how it was for quite a few people. I got into more scraps as a kid than most kids nowadays but that was just part and parcel of growing up how/where I did. That naturally led onto getting into a scrap if a mate was in trouble at football on a Saturday..... Was the norm pretty much.TheFamilyCat wrote:Thankfully I didn't grow up wanting to spendy Saturday afternoons brawling.
