Re: Burnley night-clubs in the 1970’s - Angels or The Circulation?

A load of us from whit/oth used to go to cats nearly every Saturday after playing football, few pints, home,shower,then over deerplay for a good night.And then turn out Sunday morning half drunk again...

Flemming has become a much more effective centre forward since Barnes returned to the club. Could be a coincidence but I reckon Ash has taught him some of the dark arts, and he's starting to look a potential Premier League forward now.
