Never knew those Umbro kits were made by a Burnley lad. Looks a good exhibition.

I knew a Stuart Throup from Burnley. Don't suppose there's any connection?

I remember seeing him at Reading away, in the play off 2nd leg
My mate who's into his fashion pointed him out, he had a CP coat and UGG boots on.
Pretty sure its the same bloke, you don't forget a look like that

If you see when the tickets are released, please bump Leon.
Like to see the venue restored one day, like the fashion he's been involved in, like that the town has been part of his upbringing.
My fashionista mates have pointed him out on match day a few times too
