110 club

[Terrier]

Any truth in the rumour that 110 club has gone bankrupt?

[Steve-Harpers-perm]

Hopefully not. Starting point of the night out in the 90’s!

[Rowls]

Hope not. Fingers crossed for the club.

Great place for a half decent pre-match pint.

[Quickenthetempo]

Hope not, but any business could go bump in these conditions.

Just seen this on twitter. Looks like they're trying to re open.
Nice one Cappy.

There is no truth in the rumour. The Club has no big debts and owns its own building ie no rent. There was a similar rumour in the early days of lockdown. As a later poster suggested, James Capstick undertook a 100 mile sponsored cycle ride yesterday to support reopening costs. Donations welcome to KSC 110 Club, 1 Albert Street, Burnley

That's how it should be, Pope sticking up for a Catholic club.

Good to hear.

The Club has announced that they will reopen, with appropriate safeguards, on Saturday.

[Rowls]

How did the 110 club get its name?

[Chester Perry]

110th council of the Knights of St Columba

[Rowls]

Why the 110th circle? Why that number? What circle?

[Rowls]

110th council? What does that reference?

[Chester Perry]

It is a Catholic fraternity - Burnley branch being the 110th group

Years ago we were in the Sparrohawk. A friend asked us where we were going we said 110 club. He said he would split from us as he was going KSC club . We agreed to walk down with him. He only realised we were going same place when we got there

I met a chap who had been the President of KSC in the UK whilst travelling in SE Asia. He knew of the 110 club and had visited when his team played at Turf - apparently it is well known in their circles as there are not many of them left?
