As for a juniors club - that was tried but fell flat on its face for one reason and another, would be worth trying it again though.

Interesting difference in mascots. At Burnley mascot duty is free of charge. Only junior season ticket holders can do it, they get put in to a draw at the start of the season. They get a free shirt but have to buy their own shorts and socks. They also get 4 free tickets for friends and family and a free programme. Meeting the players in the dressing room is obviously part of it, and if you are lucky like my daughter then you get to witness Ade Akinbiyi kicking hell out of a radiator to get warmed up !
I believe Wolves on the other hand charge £250 for a child to be mascot !!!!
