Barmitzvah Boy
Global winner of the 2021 Christmas Quiz 👊🤩🤩
Shades of night are falling and I'm lonely
Standing on the corner feeling blue
Sweethearts out for fun
Pass me one by one…
The above song, Me and my Shadow, was specially commissioned for Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr to celebrate the continued lack of success for that team from Preston.
The following was also commissioned for PKE. It is a new club logo (soon to be on the shirts of their Ladies team as well as the 1st team) sent to me by a group of Rovers fans in Preston known as The Tulketh Blues. I have never known a fan base get as upset as those from PKE when they realise the level of support for Blackburn Rovers in what they regard as their patch.
The above of course is sadly childish but the other way of looking at is what a bunch of dicks they are. I hail from Leyland. It was always predominantly Preston but with a strong core of Rovers fans and a smattering of Blackpool and Burnalee. The PKE fans were often found at Anfield or Old Trafford; someone would make a fortune selling MUFC or LFC and PKE half n half scarves. Penwortham is also a hot bed for Rovers fans although I am sure our sour faced ‘friends’ would deny it.
Talking of sour faces we have seen quiet a bit of Alex Voldemort Neil at Ewood recently. He usually has the opportunity for a sneaky selfie with the Premier League and Worthington Cup trophies on the 1st floor of the JW Walker stand. I bumped into the said Mr Neil in Lees Chippy at Feniscowles after he had been keeping an eye on his new target Tyrhys Dolan. He is Mr Sourface personified.....I bet he was all smiley after his Pud and Chip supper.
I have been very impressed with Preston Council and their new signage to Dumpdale. Who needs finger signage when you can utilise a modern image that everyone knows refers to the local football club. Just follow these all the way from either the railway or bus station.
The Preston fans have been a wee uppity recently. They were known as The Gentry for some weird reason; after recent visits to Blackburn they have been coined muppets. Pictured below are a group who left The Station pub in Cherry Tree quiet sharpish last season when the landlady threatened them with a smack for their lack of toilet training.
Uncle Bulgaria, also known as Peter Ridsdale, was not impressed (pictured above on the far right).
This game comes exactly one month prior to Christmas Eve, the least anticipated Christmas for many years. The Preston club shop have been on the ball this festive season selling soft toys and ’comforters’ based on the new club badge and their mascot Dickie Nudger. The BBC* warn: Beware, the following includes an offensive word...
The top seller in the PKE Pound Shop comes, I quote, “in different sizes and colours [
sorry, I did warn you] of white, yellow, black and brown and therefore suits all tastes.
I had better not tell our Kate or she will be first in the queue. I wonder what size and colour () she will opt for?
As for the game we had better watch out.
This game has become known as the ‘Heartbreak Derby’ by Rovers fans in the last few seasons. I believe we have been hard done by due to dreadful officiating which I am told was due to the referees being frightened of the stare given them by Voldemort Neil. They also have a terrier of a forward called Jadyn Stockley who turned the game around for them last season. Here is Shockley celebrating his goal:
But do not despair fellow Rovers fans. We have our very own Harry (Chapman) andDumbledore Tumbledown Ben Brereton. What could go wrong?
After considering the issue of the Preston Pound Shop I had a quiet word with Kate about her preferences. She now understands that in these times of austerity she could save a £1 and have me for nowt
If we do win, which I predict to be a 2-0 victory to us, I have a right nice meal planned for her. Just have a gawp at this !! I bet you can’t wait to get a mouthful
Our Kate’s reaction was a treat to behold....
Finally on behalf of the BBC* I will knock off with a public broadcasting health warning. Please ensure you check the temperature of your lasagne.
