[quote="pfcsteve72"]I work as a self employed bricklayer I work with another brickie and a labourer on price work and there both BURNLEY fans which many around hear are

But we work all over the north west and sometimes west Yorkshire

I'm currently working on a site that used to be Maine road in moss side and believe it or not 75% on this site are United fans and not city a few on site are Preston fans and a few scousers

I'm currently in process of building 3 houses right on the old kippax terrace it's a bloody shame they knocked down such a old historic intimidating ground like Maine road

Steve and moss side is a very scary place you would be dry bummed around those streets it's definitely the most roughest place I've ever been and I've worked around most of Manchester Leeds London Liverp

A few years back i lived in a very small fishing village in Cornwall called Mevagissey, Portsmouth were playing Leeds away in the cup, so i ventured down to the Mevagissey social club wearing my Portsmouth coat, and i was fully expecting to be the only pompey fan in there watching the game, there was another eleven blues in there, what a day we had pompey winning 3-2 Bradbury and Svensson doing the business!!! we all became drinking buddies and watched pompey together whenever they were on the box.

there were more pompey fans in Mevagissey than any other team

We're here we're there pompey fans are f#cking everywhere

You actually have drinking buddies Steve ?


When I lived and worked in deptford south east London I went to watch BURNLEY play Brentford and got talking to a few clarets at London bridge (who talked proper Londoner) and they took me to a pub after the match in London bridge which was the London clarets supporters club meeting place


I couldn't believe how many clarets who was in at the time Burnley had the 3rd biggest London supporters club behind United and Liverpool apparently but there was hundreds of them in the boozer great craic that night even got the ride

Here in the football hotbed of Northampton, you can tell people's ages by the team they support - those approaching 50 are Leeds, the mid-40s are Liverpool, and the slightly younger ones are Man U, Chelsea and Arsenal and occasionally Blackburn, though Man City shirts are certainly more common than they were.
There is a small but significant Pompey contingent, naturally.
