Burley Joins Detractor Boys Monday, 11th Dec 2000 13:40 Town manager George Burley has joined Jim Magilton in publicly stating his dislike of fans' Tractor Boys chant. The Town manager said: "Our fans like to chant 'Tractor Boys' during matches. "But I'm not a tractor-boy lover. We're not country boys. Okay, there's a big farming community here, but we want to be an up-and-coming, vibrant town. You know, clubs from abroad come to see us. "Last month we had coaches from Slovenia, Latvia and Estonia here. They wanted to know how we can do so well without so many players and without spending so much money." Conversely Matt Holland and John Scales have both said they are happy with the chant that has become popular with fans as the Blues steamroller their way through the Premiership.
