Singalongathon
Our friends at the Boundary Clarets have been in touch to ask for our help during Sunday's game. In an effort to spur the lads on and create a positive impression of Burnley FC and its fans, the plan is for the away end to join in a show of vocal support similar to that we showed in the Cup game at Derby in the 1991/92 season. As there are likely to be nearly 3,000 Burnley supporters at Loftus Road, this could be some choir.
The idea is that we give our vocal chords a good workout from kick-off to beyond the final whistle, regardless of the score. So, remember to pack your throat sweets and song sheets!
Masquerade
Another idea - this time from the Burnley fanzine "When The Ball Moves" - is that Clarets fans bring along masks. No, not to hide our faces (though that might be a good idea in some cases!), but in response to Fulham striker Facundo Sava's habit of donning a Zorro-like face covering when he scores a goal. The idea is that if we score, we all don similar masks. A neat idea! Bring your own - or contact Martin Barnes on 07760 165014.
Pub guide
You might need to get yourself into the right frame of mind before inflicting your singing and / or mask on your Claret colleagues. In which case, you may find our updated pub guide very helpful!
And finally...
Whilst we're all looking forward to the game, and hoping for a fun day out, we'd like to spare a thought for Fulham's supporters. As you probably know, they want Fulham to return to play at Craven Cottage, but whether this will happen is by no means certain. Take a look at the Fulham Supporters' Club website - move quickly over the Chris Coleman tribute (!) and check out the "Back to the Cottage" link. Imagine how we would feel if Burnley could no longer play at Turf Moor.
