Its that Premier League mentality sonny - you need to realise that you are just a poor little Championship (Or Chumpionship as you clowns hilariously called it) club now, and you definitely need to climb down form your ivory tower.
I almost feel sorry for your ignorance - but I suppose you can't help where your born or what your parents got up to at their 'special parties'.

if you read my second quote though, i did say i understand your little club was mentioned !!!
But the truth of the matter is we ARE bigger and we ARE better.We always have been and we always will be.
By the way how do you type while your fingers are caressing your mum !!!!

Not only does this story mention Burnley but it is also posted in the Burnley news section... maybe next time take a moment to check you're not going to make a tit of yourself and keep quiet, though I suppose you must be used to it by now.
I'm looking forward to your supporters showing their collective lack of originality, limited intelligence and lack of maturity come December 2nd, no matter if it's a Saturday or Sunday. Until then...

lover) all the same thing in your world ;0), i did realise the article was about your club but couldnt resist having a dig anyway. so before you go spouting off try reading all of the quotes, or are you too busy getting bitty (just for you, as you like the humour). keep up the banter !!!!!

And seriously, "bitty"? That wasn't even funny when it was current.

Well i dont want to swear at you but im about to finish my day JOB, before i start on my second job ( i know what your thinking why work when the government will just give you money for free ). if it makes you feel better then i am lacking in intelligence, you win. Does that make it all better treacle.
so i will have to leave it there. However thanks for making my day and showing me that you inbreeds can multitask, and also have a sense of humour.
keep up the good WORK ( sorry i swore again )

Anyway enjoy your second job, who knows, between that extra wage and those working tax credits you probably come close (ish) to earning the same as someone who paid attention in school.

They drain society. Surely if you havnt worked in over a year, you contribute nil and should be removed to a separate island.

The next morning they looked out of the window and a giant beanstalk had grown, Jack climbed it and found a pot of gold, and he bought a silver premier cup with it !!! Jack raised his family in this promised land, until they realised they lived in the land of many giants, and the giants weren't kind to these invaders, Fred the Red was always furious with them, Blue Moon just laughed, Liver Bird mocked, Chelski hammered them, Gooner just hated them.
Jack and his family thought they could live in the land of the giants as equals forever, but unfortunately the pot of gold ran out and they couldn't pay their way any longer so, Fred, Blue Moon, Liver Bird and Chelski paid Bertie Bee to evict them, and then cut the beanstalk down so they could never return to the land of the giants !!!!!
The morale of the story is : Never count your chickens before they hatch
hahahahahahhahahahah
ahahaahahahahahahaha
hahhahahah dunt take much but I found it funny hahahaahahhahaahah
well at least its better than "yours is bigger then mine" and "mine's better then yours" etc etc etc come on lads lighten up, its only a game !!!!! hahahahahahahahahaha
haah
No on likes us anyway so words won't make any difference !!!! hahahahhahahahahahah
ahah

Sometimes they go on a little too much; I think it is time to call off Venkys and Kean. It's becoming stale now.
Besides, if we beat you even once with Kean in charge, how would you ever live that one down?

er story we got sick to the back teeth of !!!!! .................yes a Claret watching the demise of a fellow member club, and I got sick of it, whilst most of my fellow Claret's take great joy on how long this "corrie" saga continues!!!!!
But hang on a minute, you say this story is now stale ????? Yet, we Claret's have to listen to th blah blah blah of a "bigger club, better club 30 years blah blah blah", and we aren't supposed to think that is stale!!!!
Pot-kettle-black !!!!!!!
Will I live it down if Kean's Krunckie Chicken's beat us??? Course I will, you have your bragging rights for now, because "what goes around,comes around", and we will have our day and the longer it goes on the bigger the Claret backlash !!!!! That is of course you aren't the next "Portsmouth", because the wage bill will be horrendous at Ewood now, especially when you "won't go on" till Kean goes, and all this when expenditure on Salaries is based on Attendances !!!!!!
ps this is the real Wold now, where if you get stuck in this Championhip Rut, its not that easy to get out of, but buying Championship Player's is a good start, because I can't see your prima-donna's taking to the Championship Stage, at all well, and you and Bolton wil be everybodies "Cup Final" or kick you off the park as some will do !!!!
And its only a game, but now played by hairy-fairies who go to drama school, and there ain't no drama school in the real world, oh dear how the "great" do fall ;-) ,..... and in the real world, oh no !!! No Sky !!!!
Football, funny old game !!!!!! Used to be fun to watch and now watching it, is funny !!!!!
