is there I STOPPED buying your Tuesday issues after not wishing to become embroiled in the weekly helpings of vitriol between not just supporters of Burnley and Rovers in Sport Letters, but now, it seems, the columnists themselves -- no more so than Simon Leigh's allusions about Burnley (LET, November 6).

I would be happy to furnish Mr Leigh with names of the last Clarets' side to record a victory over Rovers and I can with some degree of confidence inform him that I am in possession of the elephantine memory that he considers to be proverbial.

PAUL PILKINGTON, Frederick Street, Accrington.
