All clubs will be the same, but we have a lot of fans who don't live in Burnley, between those I meet before the game, and those I sit with at the game, there's 20 of us.
None live in Burnley
Only 7 live in Lancashire

Whereas, of course, every other club only have fans born within their town boundary.

Thanks for removing the bit of my quote, where I literally said "all teams will be the same"

Looks accurate. Leeds is around 800,000 and they get around 36,000 on so around 4.5%. They would need around 200,000 on to match us.

Best attendance to population ratio, you'll never sing that!

There must be at least that locked out every match.

First thing that hit me when I saw that display of 24 badges was how crap ours looks without its colour.

I actually think it improves it. But then I’ve never liked that badge anyway. Would love to see the pre 2009 badge make a return.

I know people go one way or the other with the two badges and I accept it shouldn't have been changed in 2010 without some consultation, but to do what they've done with it, without any real consultation, to have misled the FA too is downright shocking.

Post 2010 badge colour or monochrome both look a bit naff to me.

I much prefer the pre 2009 badge, even if it is a bit fussy.

I've got a dafabet shirt with a badge very similar to now, but not sure what year that was, before new owners?
How did they misled the FA, not saying they didn't, just that I've not read about it

The current colour scheme is an absolute abomination. The preceding one was very pleasing, as was the one before (if a little dated now)

We are quite famous for being the best supported club in terms of per head of population but I think in the whole football league we might well be pipped by Forest Green Rovers. Gates of around 3k plus. Village of about 5k population. Quite remarkable that they can sustain a football league club.

A few of those (Huddersfield, Blackburn) look very dated now.
