(I may be getting ahead of myself, I know, but I am still a little chuffed. Volkswagen could buy the Whites off Mr Kettle Element and I still wouldn't care.)<br />My computer was sent into a weird cycle of doom by the BWFC webpage and so I'm still not sure. A Burnley fan has suggested to me that the game at the Reebok on Tuesday 26th Jan will cost Bolton fans 30 pieces of silver to gain entrance.mikeovswintonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14921482679293649667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36841665.post-9415767417767526532010-01-07T19:53:57.061+00:002010-01-07T19:53:57.061+00:00Yeah.

Strong, local industrial employers supporting and financing their local football teams reflects the idea of social partnership in a capitalist economy.<br /><br />The irony is that in Spain community ownership leads to a competitive electoral struggle between plutocrats based on how many big stars they can buy the fans.
