Their fans were singing this song but I could not decipher all the words. Which then got me thinking, what on earth could they be? What or who makes Burnley wonderful? Did anyone hear the lyrics? Can anyone enlighten me as to possible options?

Possibly a variant on the old Villa song
"Oh Birmingham is wonderful
Oh Birmingham is wonderful
It's full of tits fanny and the Villa
Oh Birmingham is wonderful"
But I couldn't hear it properly - possibly because I was trying to fit those lyrics in !

It surely takes a lot more than tits and fanny to make Burnley wonderful.

“Oh, Burnley is wonderful to get away from, its such a shame I have to go back there”

Or, similar.

Oh get off your high horse: every time I've ever listened to an Albion game from Turf Moor on the radio, all I can hear in the background is voices shouting "Fookin' get oop, yer soft southern pansies" and so on. That sort of thing goes on everywhere. Equally, I'm not sure calling somebody a soft shandy-drinking southerner or a pigeon-fancying northerner is anywhere near the same thing as calling people "******s", for example.....

These lyrics go well with the Bonanza theme :D

& possibly of course because there were so few of their fans there! Which got me thinking, has there been a smaller away following for a league game at the Amex this season? or even last season come to that.

Their booing of Bong again and singing J-**** songs was a disgrace. I did call a few racist outside I was so annoyed :tantrum: Horrible town, 80s views, horrible manager - *****.

They also chanted the ‘Jay Rodriguez - he’s one of our own’ ditty.

And wonderfully in unison, about a dozen of those around me in the East Lower replied:
‘Yes. Yes he is’
