Happy belated birthday, Cornwall.
My last game was West Ham, pre-covid. I hope you are as successful, a 3-0 win 2years ago today. It’ll be a while until I feel safe coming over again.

I’m hopeful that as he uses Cornwall in his name he will not have been corrupted in to such a shameful act!

Always have arguments with my sister about the jam/cream - - - cream/jam question ...
Have tried to tell her "Its always jam 1st ... so as not to overpower the taste of the cream" but she won't have it.
I tell her the Queen always serves Cream Teas the correct way but she insists on the disgusting habit of "Cream 1st then Jam" we refused to eat her cream Tea at my nephews birthday party and didn't speak for ooooooh hours

I’m afraid not..lived in Cornwall for over 25 years but saw the light and moved to Devon 4 years ago but it’s always been CREAM 1st with Jam on top

Here is a link to the above game. I was very suspicious of the "newly arrived VAR" and didnt get out of my seat when Barnes scored first goal. However I joined in with the rest when Wood scored the header from McNeil's cross which was subsequently disallowed for the offside toe nail / nose? Ive not cheered a Burnley goal since that day (in case it is disallowed). Weird I know but until the opposition restart play at the centre spot I still harbour doubts as to whether Stockley Park are trying to find a reason to disallow the goal.
What a fabulous goal that wasn't. Have Burnley ever scored a better disallowed goal?
