F.A.O The Freeman Family

We have come all the way to one of the hotbeds of World Football. In one particular Buenos Aires Sports Store the boys were able to purchase football shirts from the top clubs of world football including: Boca Juniors, River Plate, Independiente, Real Madrid, Barcelona and wait for it ......... Burnley. I am unsure how or why two Burnley shirts (one in young Freeman's re-claimed suitcase I'm sure) managed to find their way over to South America!! I suspect people will not believe us, so here is picture evidence of the mighty Burnley's quest for world domination.

I'm sure this will bring a tear to the eye of General Freeman, I know "Our 'Arry" couldn't believe the picture was genuine!

I suspect it may be there for some time.........

Thank for for this, however it is no surprise that one hotbed of football will pay tribute to another. I am surprised they had any remaining, although on further examination it is from two seasons ago and they have obviously sold out of the new kit and are awaiting a delivery.

Anyway,off to Buenos Burnley this afternoon to watch El Claretos take on Rver Trent Juniours (Forest) as we begin to reclaim our rightful place in the top flight.

must have been a plant from "The General"
The shirt has probably been there since the mighty clarets last won the league when a great player named Peter Noble was the star(in the 60's)
