Spotted this in the shop at the National Football Museum today.
Absolutely hideous, like something for Halloween.

Horrible but I can recognise them all. The estate of Brian Miller should sue.

Is that what’s happened to the legends posters in storage?

Whatever the above posters think of the Bfc pics, they look 100% better than any pics, that lot down the road have of their best team pics.

I can only agree with TFC. That is horrible.
IMHO, of course.

The art teacher that marked it 13 out of 250 was about right.

I once worked for a company in Blackburn back in 2009 that made designer hair straighteners, and I randomly suggested we should make a Burnley FC mini hair straightener!
2 months later my idea was up and running and the club shop manager at the time (Tom, great lad to work with..) bought the idea and we sold 250 to the club! I think we called them the “Little Claret” in which we did a photo shoot on the pitch with 3 models.. it was slightly surreal!
On a serious note we then rolled the idea out to Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool, England and Colchester United in which we got great sales..
So that’s my contribution to the worst BFC club shop gifts…
I’ll apologise now, to anyone who bought one! Ha..

Owners of the dogs weren't Burnley fans, simply publicity mad locals. Hence the stupid £20k 'diamond' cat collar article in the local press.

On a side note, it’s the most minor of many issues on the club store but they spell it ‘memrobilia’ on there
