Rocky

[Here's-Johnny]

It Would be great if at the final game the roar of ROCKY...could be heard among other Chants at Turf Moor in Remembrance of Him Barry Oliver and others Who Couldn't make this fantastic season and are no longer With us. I was with rocky prior to the last away game at Villa......and told me he dreaded the possibility of being relegated. Let's give em a final big Shout!!! Utc. RIP

We did a Dublin trip in 2017 (Shamrock Rovers preseason) with Barrie (BFC Supporters club) stayed in Bray south of Dublin ... Rocky kept us "entertained"

[Always be a Claret]

I agree totally. And I miss him match days. He is Mr Burnley and a true legend. Match day experience just isnt the same without him and to roar his name would be great. RIP little fella.

I remember years ago he sat behind me at an away game, the back of my jacket was drenched due to Rocky's shouting, screaming etc. Real character and a very intelligent bloke.

I know there are lots of “anti Rockys” don’t really understand why
Rocky was a true claret legend RIP Rocky.

Saw him naked once at Wycombe…. Still not recovered.

First time I ever saw Rocky was away at Aldershot. He was being ejected by stewards with them holding both his arms and legs.

And I was also there away at Wycombe I think it was the 5 - 0 defeat where Rocky and Selwyn were doing belly bumping.

Rocky was a top bloke. He was very intelligent and could hold a conversation with the best of them. I grew up in an era where there were some proper Clarets who were infamous - Rocky, Selwyn, blind Shaun, etc., and they helped me to develop the love for Burnley that I have now.

[durhamclaret]

Remember being at Hartlepool in an Autoglass game, only game I’d been on with a sub 1000 gate,
Rocky was giving a commentary to blind Shaun I’m guessing, he was saying we’re now ont attack, whereby another supporter said no we’re not Rocky, to which he replied “shut up he doesn’t know cos he can’t fing see owt”
Funny that at the time. God bless Rocky.

I was also at the Wycombe game. Travelled down with the Boundary Clarets. Still remember Rocky pinching one of my Haffners pies on the way down. Another good memory was at Brentford back in 1997. A bit naughty as i was only 16 but i ended up a bit tipsy with the pints he purchased for me in the pubs before the game.

Sad to hear he'd passed away. Hadn't realised. RIP Rocky
