WHERE has the sense of humour of people gone? Jack Straw (LET, February 24) says Burnley fans eat bananas with their feet. So what?
I'm sure 99 per cent of Burnley fans like myself are not offended in the least and as for the ones who are -- get a life!
Jack was excited at Rovers being in a Cup Final and fair play to him. He was not being the Foreign Secretary, but a football fan.
When the Rovers get relegated, and Burnley get promoted, and Alistair Campbell or Peter Pike has a friendly dig at Rovers fans, I'm sure they will take it in good heart.
Keep up the good old football banter and stop taking things too seriously.
SIMON DEAN, Netherfield Road, Nelson.
