Because he’s a fat, embarrassing ****.

It is nice to read a post from a wordsmith who paints a vivid picture with few words.

Haha that name’s a blast from the past! Had a month or two of tabloid notoriety back in the day and dined out on it for years

The BCF gained a reputation back in the eighties following an attack on a coach load of Rangers fans at a services prior to an England , Scotland international. Having seen the BCF come a poor second at both Bpool and Burnley concluded the Bears were probably lads and dad's not Billy boys. Regrettably fear this kind of behaviour is reappearing since lockdown ended know football has become too sanitised but don't think we want the eighties back. A Bpool supporting mate has said he has seen a nasty edge appearing this season.

Those are West Cumbrians matey, see @Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese for a prime example. lol

Made the trip to Carlisle sometime in the 80's - they were playing City. It was the only occasion in a career of over 120 away grounds clocked that we entered our designated turnstile via a flooded field full of cows. It's what watching football is all about ! Reminds me of a great quiz question : which is the only football club that has played in England's top division but have never played our esteemed neighbours from the borough of Trafford ( i.e ManUre) in a league match? Answer - Carlisle Utd ( 1976 ( or thereabouts!!! ) -Carlisle's only season in the top division and ManUre's only season in the 2nd Division ( post WW2 ).

Manchester United were relegated in May 1974 and spent the 74/75 season in Division Two.
They won that league as champions and therefore played the 75/76 season back in the First Division.
