Burnley ranked 8th poshest club in EPL
We’ll never live this down.
According to the “i” Newspaper Burnley came 8th in an assessment by marketing firm Ticketgum. The criteria were: the number of private schools & Waitrose shops in each club’s local authority area plus median house prices & gross annual pay.
Ahead of Burnley were Chelsea, Fulham, Spurs, Arsenal, Palace, Bournemouth, & Brighton !
So that’s 12 clubs that can’t sing that “Sh1thole” song any more.

I must have missed Burnley's Waitrose.
Is it disguised as a Morrisons?

I’ve always thought we were a cut above. My chauffeur and Butler are both season ticket holders. Unfortunately the cleaning staff are philipinoes and don’t understand football. The Zhelicopter pilot is into Rugby. I knew Leisure when he was poor!!.

It’s 100% a close call between Luton & Burnley for which is the biggest shithole and it’s not even close.

Wish I knew where this secret Waitrose was located. Save us from having to drive over to Walton Le Dale.

And another of those revolting old working mens clubs has closed ( you know those places where people who sweat at work ,have dirty hands and black fillings)to be replaced by (almost) canal side mews flats with outstanding views of the cathedral quarter and the combined jewelers and fine wine emporium.

And on the craphole stakes, if you include a hinterland of X miles, then Liverpool and Everton would be in my bottom 3. Burnley has countryside within a few miles in most directions. The same distance from Anfield just takes you to more scouser houses. Croydon (Crystal Palace) makes up my bottom three.
