This was great read. Good mentions and useage to see perspective of how Burnley are typically viewed by many and that it's toss between them Leeds or Everton going down.

Found out today as well as Alastair Campbell, there’s another celebrity Burnley fan - Dr Zoe Williams (one for daytime TV viewers probably).

Wasn’t John Kettley a Burnley fan? Was he a celebrity?

Norris and Chesney from Corrie are apparently Burnley fans.
They try to claim Prince Charles.

My management accountant is a big Burnley fan. He is currently recovering from a prostate cancer operation, hoping he doesn’t need chemo or radiotherapy.

He worked for me in my last business too. Known him for 30 years. As decent a bloke as you could ever meet. Most folk in Burnley are nice. I really hope they stay up and Leeds go down.
