Cycling Burnley fans’ success for hospital


Four football fans have completed a 250-mile tandem bike ride from Turf Moor to the Arsenal’s Emirates stadium raising more than £3,000 for Great Ormond Street Hospital.

Claret fans Dominic Marquis and Peter Baker cycled down with rival Gunners Garreth Ellidge and Jimmy Capstick to arrive in time for the Burnley v Arsenal clash last Saturday.

Very commenable work lads but why not invite some players like Jensen and Mears along?

Maybe their afraid of some honest graft thoughh Jensen does have plenty of match practice bending his back as he plucks opposition goals out of the net. Whats that now over 60 and still 9 games left. Looks like its Guinness Book of Records time again!
