Ok at work today we had some guys in doing maintenance work on the plant from Burnley most of them had Burnley shirts on.. As with the old health and safety rules i had to induct them all to the plant.. {some had difficuty how ever} understanding the rules got me thinking how many of you guys go to to rival teams wearing the oppersite team shirt.... Must add loved it with the Rovers flag and clock ticking away they asked me the answers to the questions on the induction pack..A link says we have along history.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Lancashire_derby

Did you hear the story on top gear of the soldier that suffered temporary blindness due to a bomb detonating near him. He was a United fan but the troops swapped all his tops for Liverpool ones
I think I could smell the sh** on a claret and blue shirt a mile away!

Plastic Mancs.My sister came to my house the other day with her two sons both wearing Manc Tops ,she said show your uncle your new tops.I told her she was a disgrace and could she not cloth the kids better,I dont want Plastic Mancs in my house,make this the first and the last time I told them.Later when they left I felt a bit of a heel,ive now got over it and im still in the same frame of mind.

Good man starrover, I'd have exactly the same attitude!
Don't really understand the point being made in the original post to be honest. Certainly wouldn't go to Burnley with a Rovers shirt on, seen some of them try it over here and mostly get away with it which is annoying but at the same time just indicates the large percentage of violent cavemen they have supporting them in comparison to us.

Got around to thinking why people in Ossy,Accy,Clayton and even worse Blackburn and Darwen want to support Mancs U and C and Chelsea.If you dont want to follow Rovers then go and watch the animals at Turf Moor .To jump on a bandwagon and then start pleading with people outside Ewood can I buy your season ticket for a 100 quid,I told them go and stuff yourselves,or words to that effect even if you offered me a 1000pounds im going in and your staying out.
