Woof Woof!!! Vodka Drinker Posts: 5,160 Posts Per Day: 0.87 Reputation: 78.41% Rep Score: +43 / -12 Location: Near a Lamp Post Approval: +38	Given free before 'Quick Mick' put Burnley to the sword (God that was a great game, wasn't it?). I've still got two of them. The following year my wife and I go to the Dominican Republic on holiday and there's a bloke wearing one around the pool, I've got mine on too and we both stare at each other thinking we'd each had our hats nicked.  He was a Town fan from Skegness, small world really. So where are your's and what stories have you got about it or them?

I took it to Songs of Praise and they said 'It'll be a fucking miracle if that stadium happens, mate'. Funny really. That's not something you expect the Archbishop of Canterbury to say. Mr McGee, don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

I apologise for my ignorance. They were handed out to signify the first steps towards the building of our new stadium which conoco are the main sponsors - The Conoco Stadium (or would it have been Jet in the end?)
