Indeed. Faversham is one of the nicest places in the UK (countryside, coastal walks, history, pubs etc). Not sure how you can criticise it if you've been there tbh.

Put it this way, pick London road up and put it in Burnley and you’d have people clamouring from around Burnley coming for the glitz and glamour.
I love all the anecdotes. Jay “proven not the be racist” Rodrigues - uh, no he wasn’t proven to be anything. Lack of evidence. But most importantly. We’re all middle class racists. Clearly a made up accusation because Jay “shithouse” Rodrigues was not found guilty of racial abuse.
By their reasoning, the 2 Burnley fans I knew at university now basically represent Burnley fans.
One developed a cocaine addiction whilst at university, once he was high...the stuff would spout.. anti Semitic bollocks and genuinely believed the government was trying to cover up an Islamic invasion and the left really want to exterminate white people.
The other one believed that there were nothing wrong with “slapping the missus” if she doesn’t do what her Husband demanded. “Drew the line at rape, but accept that if a man arrives home from a hard day’s work, it was his right to enforce discipline if the house wasn’t tidy”.
So based on these chaps.
Burnley fans are all coked up, misogynistic, white supremacists. However, given historically, the BNP and National Front did well there... that’s probably true.
I don’t really like fans from other clubs, this hasn’t changed my opinion of them.
And yes, Burnley fans. The north is predominantly a shithole and I’ve spent plenty of time living up there to warrant saying that.

My Hair is like his hair
Personally dont dislike Burnley. *Compact ground in the town.* Always difficult to beat, play competitive football and in Sean Dyche have a great manager who does well with the financial support he gets. Always in the mix for relegation but always do enough to pull clear.
Fans are pretty much the same as most clubs, some are friendly, knowledgeable, passionate and a bias desire for their team to win. Throw in a few fans who go beyond the line on internet forum, like most fans.
Apart from the sentence * about the ground* and substitute Potter for Dyche and you could be talking about us. We are all the same, especially on internet forums where we can hide behind a keyboard. Take away the pack mentality and if you had a pint down the pub we would all get on fine. Most of it is all billy big bollocks & bullshit. There are of course exceptions but it happens with all fans of different clubs.

Why are the Clarets getting so wound up by a load of Internet saddos on BHA Mumsnet? And conversely, why are people on here getting wound up?
NSC, the biggest stain on the reputation of our football club since either Leon Best’s loan spell or Kingstonian 2 BHA 1.

Oh well.. Burnley, like all other clubs, have their fair share of mouthy dickhead fans mixed in with their decent fans. Unfortunately the dickheads shout the loudest. They'll be onto their latest gripe by next week. Ignore.
Wow - they really don't like us do they?!! A lot of southerner hatred, chip on the shoulder, serious inferiority complex stuff going on there - which is a pity because there is a great deal to be admired about Burnley FC and the way they survive in the PL every year with a minimum of expenditure, an amazing defence and a gravely **** of a manager!!

15 pages (and counting) of mostly slagging off Burnley on a Brighton forum in response to 2 pages (and counting) of mostly slagging off Brighton on a Burnley forum.
Maybe we've a lot more in common than we like to think
I think that may just be a reflection of more Brighton fans having access to the internet...

A customer of mine lived in Faversham ( retired at the and 2019), he worked in Rochester. He is a Gills fan and so much banter between the two us. The general gist was that whilst Kent maybe the Garden of England, the Medway towns and anything north west of Canterbury was the cesspit at the bottom of the garden.
Similar debate with a guy who I joined up with who lives just outside of Ashford.
I lived in Coventry for three years. Certainly rates highly in the shit towns category .... I loved the place.

‘Not proven’ does not equal innocent though.
I’ve no problem with Burnley as a place or their fans, just Dyche and the nasty, nigglely tactics he apparently promotes. Always in the officials ear.
Works for Burnley though - just will never enjoy playing against it.

As I see it Burnley have real legit fans, no plastics. So I respect them for that. A genuine club punching above their weight.
If a few of them don’t like us, oh well. They may have missed some of the credit we gave them yesterday, too bad.

I enjoyed growing up in Seaford / Lewes but have equally enjoyed living in Liverpool. It’s not quite as grim up north as some would have us believe.
