Send us a text

This week the lads turn their attention to The Clarets of Burnley - We haven't met the founding Football League members much but there is still plenty for Al & Val to get their teeth into including; 1. Past meetings a post-Manchester City hangover and the day everything went wrong; 2. How fortunes can change so quickly in football as both NCFC and Burnley prove; 3. We explore the concept of yo-you clubs; 4. Famous triple debutants and the ruthless end of the Nigel Worthington era; and finally; 5. Two big player connections.
