PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Gone for a Burton]

It was hilarious when he offered, "to buy a pint" for Oakie and mosside Blue.

Offer still stands.

Will you be joining us, first rounds on you !!

Definition of an FOC...

You recall a time when football clubs did not need to instruct KCs.

That was before Americans got involved with the PL.

The sky is falling in on here but not I suspect in whatever piece of paradise Pep is spending the international break.

He stays at my house actually. Always sends me out to Chips@No8. Cod, large chips, mushy peas and large curry.

Is it any good that chippie? Always forget to try it!

Ah Gone for a Burton, maybe the 115 announcement will be made at the same time as the new 100k stadium he says is getting built...

Simply said the plans exist.

Don't misrepresent me I'm quite capable of achieving that without your input.

If we can get to the FA Cup final instead of a scarf or a bucket hat like the RB ( incidentally being sold on eBay ripping their own fans off)
Perhaps the club can leave one of these on all our seats

Still prefer BU115HIT on the t shirt.

I have always liked the expression 'gone for a Burton'. I was on a brewery tour some years ago, and the guide told us that the origin came from the war, when a pilot crashed, or bailed out into the sea, he was said to have 'gone for a Burton', the word Burton being synonymous with drink.

Yeah leave him alone you lot, if he buggers off where am I going to get my daily dose of "moving the aways fans from SS3" from?

Currently distracted by other important matters, but you'll be pleased to learn that I'll be back after the celebrations.

The week before it he said we were definitely innocent, then went to definitely guilty with the info being in the public domain, before then back to innocent again.

100% chatting shite

Originates from the brewing industry in Burton on Trent.

To be honest I blocked Burton ages ago, for his constant bleating about moving the away fans to a block that would replace the few fans we have that sing, and some kind of expectation that 3k fans would fit into about 500 seats.

Gross exaggeration....and it appears that many seem to like the idea.

Sorry to be a pedant, but during WW2 the RAF commandeered a Burtons warehouse near Blackpool, for the storage of war records. If any aircrew were killed in action their miltary records were despatched from the squadron to Burtons. That's where it comes from.

Possible Connection to Burtons Tailors:
Some suggest the phrase refers to Burtons, a British men's tailors, who supplied "demob suits" to men who had been demobilized from the armed forces, implying that the lost crew member has gone to collect his demob suit.

• Alternative Explanation:
  Another theory suggests the origin is from the beer of Burton-on-Trent, implying that pilots who didn't come back were deemed to have chosen a pint over reporting for duty.
