In Popular Culture
The club are referenced in the 2011 film The Inbetweeners when the main characters share their coach pickup with a group of noisy Burnley fans. The fans sing "We love you Burnley, we do!" and later "Can you hear the Preston sing? I can't hear a fucking thing!", two of the club's chants. 'Will' narrates that when asked "I always say I like football, but not Burnley. Burnley can fuck off!"
The club's supporters also briefly appear in the 1966 feature film Help! in a scene where footage of a crowd scene from the 1962 F A cup final against Tottenham Hotspur is used.

Famous quotes containing the words popular culture, popular and/or culture:
“Popular culture entered my life as Shirley Temple, who was exactly my age and wrote a letter in the newspapers telling how her mother fixed spinach for her, with lots of butter.... I was impressed by Shirley Temple as a little girl my age who had power: she could write a piece for the newspapers and have it printed in her own handwriting.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“The popular colleges of the United States are turning out more educated people with less originality and fewer geniuses than any other country.”
—Caroline Nichols Churchill (1833–?)
“No culture on earth outside of mid-century suburban America has ever deployed one woman per child without simultaneously assigning her such major productive activities as weaving, farming, gathering, temple maintenance, and tent-building. The reason is that full-time, one-on-one child-raising is not good for women or children.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
