Re: hyndburn homes
Quite right, bananaman. Have this H******n Homes lot got some connection with the council? If so, they should be having a word with them. It's totally out of order for any company in Accrington & District to be sponsoring club from other towns.

Re: hyndburn homes
Thanks for that, Margaret. According to their website, they're based in Accrington itself, so they've even less excuse for sponsoring teams from other towns!

Re: hyndburn homes
It's not as if a straight forward donation was made. One of their employees who is a Burnley fan decided to enter a team from work for a half time competition. They were sponsored for the event, of whom HH through Contour Group were one of the sponsors.
Besides it seems to be the butt of a few jokes that a certain Accrington company are the main shirt sponsors

Re: hyndburn homes
...sorry, Kate, Accrington & Districts to give it its proper title.
Just had a thought...I hope Eric's not stocked that pie cabinet on the bar in the Crown with a certain company's pies, or else I broke my boycott twice on Friday night!

Re: hyndburn homes
if it was just somebody that works for them why does it say in the telegraph that hyndburn homes raised the money why mention the name why didnt it just say the chaps name not mention hyndburn homes...its like saying greg pope represents the people of hyndburn and all people of hyndburn support blackburn because he does get my drift..im off now to relive all the goals ive seen this weekend 3 stanley goals 3 rangers goals yeehhaaa

Re: hyndburn homes
Can I please make a point that Contour Homes
DO NOT Own Twin Valley Homes and never have done. Twin valley was created as a company to purchase the Blackburn with Darwen housing stock when they decided they wanted the council housing stock to be transferred into private ownership back in 2001 Since then we now have Pendle Housing under the umberella of prospect homes Twin Valley homes did apply for Hyndburn housing but came second to contour housing... unfortunately I did approach our chief exec about some advertising at stanley as he is a massive footy fan and a former league referee but he felt he couldn't oblige as it was outside the blackburn and darwen area but it would have been a different matter if we had won the bid for Hyndburn Homes
