I remember putting those old pics on the message board. I saw them when I was in the library.

Thanks for not saying anything.
They are online now.

Second one obviously Churchill. Turf Moor. Guessing first match after the war?

first one might be 1914 cup final team, possibly off to Blackpool for a few pints
2ns one is definately churchill at the turf demanding the bee hole lane bogs be demolished immediately.

I'll give you 3/6....and 1 mark for wit.
That would take decades to achieve. We defeated the Nazi's more quickly than demolishing the bogs.

We’ll fight them on the Longside, we’ll fight them in the Cricket Field but we’ll never stump up for a twix

You could have had the bonus point here by saying who Mr Nicholas fathered!
Seeing as you have cheated and googled it, that same report says who is daughter is.

Is the second pic some sort of rap battle?

Is it the first series of The Voice then?

Wrong again.
It was the script of Grease being written 33 years before it became a film.
Churchill then went on to show them how to dance like Travolta.

I believe Churchill was at the Turf in June ‘45 laying the first brick of the new corner stands.

The bloke next to Churchill now does the Go Compare ads.

martin-p and bodge

Lost the will to live with this now though.

1/. Burnley FC. Berlin. May 1914.

2/. L to R 3 x prospective candidates in the 1945 General Election.
Richard Fort (Clitheroe)
Harmer Nicholls (Nelson & Colne) who fathered Sue Nicholls AKA Audrey Roberts in Coronation St.
H Milnes (Burnley)
However, I have no idea who the guy with the microphone is.

All auditioning for the first ever 'Britain's Got Talent'.

Turf Moor, June 1945.

hats off to the cameraman for getting such a clear picture of people in a moving car...

I guess the trip to Berlin in May 1914 was a reward for winning the FA Cup a couple of weeks earlier at the end of April. However, with WW1 imminent I suspect they would have been happy to return home.

Thinking about it the story has all the hallmarks of a wonderful film script.

Captain Tommy Boyle lifts the FA Cup in 1914 before going off to fight for his country in WW1 where he suffers life threatening injuries, only to survive and return to captain Burnley to win the First Division Championship in a season of 30 games undefeated.

On second thoughts the story is probably beyond the realms of belief.

Excellent idea Royboy.

bloke in the middle is struggling to work out how to sit in a car.

and winston looks like he's getting to grips with an early form of VAR and awarded us a pen.

First picture suicide squad.
Second one Chico time tribute act.

The first picture, is that Claret Tony with the hat.

I would guess it's one of Leisure's organised trips to an away game.

To add more detail the top photo was taken outside Café Bauer on Unter den Linden. Sadly the building was destroyed during WWII

1945, Winnie Churchill, H.H.M Milnes, Turfmoor.

Churchill is telling his mate to be careful when he gets his leg over.

Very good Imploding.

You didn't happen to read posts 10, 11 and 19 on this thread did you?

Here is another from Burnley's 1914 and first overseas tour when they played Viktoria Club Berlin.
Within only a few months they would be at war killing each other.

No. I googled it.

Can't find that one in the book, Mike.

But there is another of the Germans presenting Tommy Boyle with the giant laurel wreath.

Why, when the same answer is written above 3 times?
Given that, why then bother to post it?

However, it has given other posters chance to post interesting pics.

I can't answer your question without being impolite. Well, actually, I could, but I don't want to.

Obviously i didn't read the ******* answer here before googling it, did I? I feel like you should have had it within you to figure that out for yourself, with just a little bit of thinking.

Edit: And given that the answer was given "three times", apparently, have you whined to the previous two people who posted it after the answer was given, or did you choose to single me out for some reason?

Roy - the photo only came to light after I'd done the book. Its a great line up though.

Oh dear. Post 10 got some stick for googling it. Post 11 and 19 are me.

I don't believe it was in the rules that we weren't allowed to use a search engine.

Definitely not me, I wasn't well and my mum wouldn't let me go. Could be Leisure though.

Correct and we stopped at one of the first Wetherspoons!
