Very prophetic to be fair.

I’m Interested in who made the film.
Looking at the lad who plays Dave, played by Andrew McClean, searching on Google , he’s acted in a few films since I think.
These two parts of the film are on natural born Clarets YT channel.

Only seen a bit of this, but I recognize Ray Lord on there. He was a supply teacher when I was at school early 80s and introduced himself as Bob Lord's nephew, which I am pretty sure Tony told me was nonsense.

Doubt he'll be teaching now - convicted of offences with young girls back in the 1990s. He very definitely wasn't related to Bob Lord.

Don't know who made it but it aired on Channel 4. They contacted the supporters club at the time and said they were doing a documentary and wanted some fans to turn up on a Saturday morning to do some filming. Then they gave us inflatables and made us look pretty damn stupid to be honest while the programme was appalling.

As for this pic, taken from it. Lord is far left on the front, but there are some others recognisable. Middle back row is Paul the car cleaner, the far right on the back row is a bloke called Tom March who made it into his 90s before passing away a few years ago.

I also seem to recognise the dodgy looking bloke second from the left on the back row. I'm sure someone can help me with a name. :D

A better picture of Tom (sound man) after the 94 PlayOffs. I used to steward with him on away coaches for the supporters club.

Tom was a really good friend for a lot of years. Born a Geordie, he was initially a Newcastle fan but then moved down to Huddersfield, Halifax and finally Burnley for work at a time when travel wasn't quite so easy so he started to support those clubs. I'm not so sure when he passed away but I know he got past 90 and his 90th birthday would have been May 2013.

Used to travel with the supporters club around that time. Is the fellow to your right, CT, called Mick? and the fellow with the dark glasses on the back row could be Dave Cairns? Surprised Dave Spencer isn't on the photo or perhaps he is. 30 years ago!!
