That is the biggest myth around. Burnley is a small town, just like Stoke is, but the catchment area of the surrounding areas are huge...burnley, barrowford, barnoldswick, Nelson, Accrington, Rawtenstall, even Skipton, Blackburn and Preston are areas in which Burnley pull support from in a catchment area that is far greater than Stoke on Trent. I thought Stoke was a city of a quarter of a million? My mistake, and my apologies to Dave and any other supporters of Stoke Town FC. Touchy lot aren't you? I didn't include Clitheroe in surrounding areas either. See you with the other 11500 next season, unless manure are on TV at which point, I'll join the other 9500 for a game or 2. Its good to show my little lad how tinpot his local team is ;-)

Make sure you take him to see the tinpots in the trophy cabinet Dave. Although if he would like to see what a League Cup winning tinpot looks like then you'll have to take him to the Britannia for that.

He isn't going to be blessed by supporting a trophy laden team whichever club he opts to support long term, because essentially we're both shit. We are far less shit than you though and when ings goes (even though he's got trippier and vokes on his current Burnley strips) and we continue to have bojan weaving his special kind of magic, Stoke City will be his only logical team of choice. You see, as much as I hope you go down, my lad has two choices of team and it can only be Stoke (my team) or Burnley (the closest team to where we live).

So if he carries on wanting to support Burnley will you start taking his toys off him?

Most of us reckon Manchester to be part of Burnley's catchment area too, but obviously you don't.

Don't be stupid. Rochdale and Bury are far better and more attractive a proposition than Burnley :-)
