00:10When we were sort of doing things back in the early 90s, we'd try and talk about the town.
00:18And, you know, we had things like Time Out, London Magazine come up to watch us and interview us at Burnley.
00:24You know, we'd be on the pitch with the players, the club used to invite us into the lounge, you know.
00:30We had quite a good connection with the area and we tried to sort of push that as much as possible.
