I'm perfectly chilled. Clarke was there as an ex professional footballer and pundit to hopefully raise money for charity, which he did.

He wasn't there to talk about his playing career any more than he was there to talk about appearing on Countdown.

To top it all off I believe Lee Mack is a rovers fan.

The only time I realised Clarke was there was right at the end when he was in the last 2 with The Grimsby Town fan comedian Lloyd Griffith
No he didn't mention Burnley or QPR, Leeds, Luton, PNE etc etc etc and why should he.

If any celebrity mentions that they are Burnley fans we are all for it.
I have hardly ever heard Lee Mack mentioning Blackburn and I don't think he is a massive football fan

I’ve played along with the 1% club a few times and never gone the whole way through, apart from this celebrity special.

It was definitely a lot easier. The 1% question was well easy

I am sure I saw Clinton Morrison among the 100 taking part but didn’t notice at what stage he was eliminated. He obviously got beyond the first question.

Saw Lee Mack doing a gig in Harrogate a couple of years ago. A heckler shouted out 'which football team do you support?' And he replied ,'Er, Arsenal, er Blackburn, I'm not really bothered!'. A very witty guy with the most interesting fact about him being that he used to be Red Rum's stable boy in Southport. He moved to Blackburn when his parents took a pub there.

The Manxman pub in one of the roughest areas at the time.
Went to Everton school nearby, which no longer exists.

I’ve seen Lee Mack admit he was a supporter of Blackburn Rovers on tv more than once, so by his own admission he is a football fan (to a degree).

You can't say that - chipbutty will respond and tell you that's nonsense even though you, like me, have heard him mention it many times.
