I liked the fact that the West Ham fans targeted the players and owners, but left david moyes and Stuart pearce well alone. Sensible choice.

European Club Association suspends Greek club PAOK; seems a bit harsh, all the president did was invade the pitch armed with a gun...

Isn't there something about flares being banned because they are so dangerous?
Think of the atmosphere those 25,000 PAOK fans could create if they had a roof and weren't so far from the pitch.

They've had bans, fines and points deductions, but their fans don't seem to give a ****.

Neither do the stewards or police. The chief steward of their local rivals ARIS goes on the pitch to orchestrate the chanting and lighting of flares and fireworks.
They have similar displays, and mass punch ups at basketbal, volleyball and even swimming.

Can’t beat going to an off at the swimming.

In fact I might kick off the next time I take my daughter to a swimming lesson, it’s what proper blokes do.

S'funny, I always used to think of Burnley as being inferior to us. Don't really know what caused me to think that.

But by jove, they have spectacularly got it right over the past few years. In the long shadows cast by manchester and liverpool, a really dedicated set of one town team supporters, playing in a ground that has been carefully redeveloped without losing its overall 'charm'.

Sensible manager left to get on with it by owners called ..... erm don't know. Clearly some sorts that just let the footballing side manage itself, with grounded players doing just that.

The bastards. I am quite envious.

And whilst pontificating about all things Lancashire, I quite like what Accrington are doing. Best away trip for a long time last year, or the year before.

'Proper football', whatever that is.

Will be interesting next season if Accrington, situated halfway between Burnley and Blackburn, get promoted to play bigger teams like Birmingham & Sunderland next season.
