That's your Burnley

Four four f***ing two :)



You see Burnley knows what Burnley is and is quite comfortable in its own skin. A pint of Carling and steamboat chasers at one forty five on a Friday afternoon? That’s your Burnley. Nobody look at each other’s feet because everyone’s wearing steel toe capped Lonsdales anyway? That’s your Burnley. Bottle of Paco Rabanne being passed round the pub as poppers? That’s your Burnley. Nothing on the telly tonight shall we set the garages on fire for something to do? That’s your Burnley. Sun’s out sofa in the front yard cans of Skol blasting Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff on repeat until someone throws a half brick at your head because they’re on night shifts and they seen it mistakenly rumoured on Facebook that you’re a nonce. That’s your Burnley. Week’s pay packet in the fruit machine now got nothing to take home to her so sell my Casio and get my cousin pregnant round the back while vomiting shish kebab over a passing mongrel? That’s your Burnley.

Written by a scouser?

‘Kin thieving bin dippers. No doubt if they don’t go home with all three points there will be a candle lit vigil for them to cry at all night.

As pi$$takes go, not a bad one but not worth worrying about.

Weirdly when he was describing the house, I’ve been in that house many times, could be any northern town though to be fair not just my nans (god rest her soul)

Ironic that having spent quite a while in Liverpool over the past few years the author could quite easily be speaking about 50% of the City region

Was just thinking the same. It's almost as the the author was referring to his/her own.

What I don't understand is why has he gone to the trouble to write such a flattering article. I think he's in love with us.

The same old outdated, tired tropes that Scousers themselves (rightly) complain about.

Quite amusing and even more so when he could be describing the area around Anfield, Goodison, Kirby & Birkenhead.

You'd have had a good view of the goal though Tony, but maybe not the build up.

Must have been somewhere posh Paco Rabane ? It was Hai Karate in our pub.

A weeks pay packet in the fruit machine is good one and better than a weeks dole money in a fruit machine I suppose!
