Burnley's rivalry with Blackburn is one of English football's oldest, and evidently pettiest, rivalries.<\/p>\n

A kind-hearted soul made the egregious error of commissioning a Blackburn Rovers-themed birthday cake at a Burnley-supporting cake shop, and it all went horribly wrong, albeit rather subtly.<\/p>\n

The baker did as instructed, producing a delicious-looking cake with Rovers' club crest on it along with the words 'Happy 40th birthday Ashley', but hidden beneath the sponge was a nasty surprise.<\/p>\n

When the Blackburn fan cut into the cake he realised to his horror that there was a layer of Burnley-esque claret and blue icing in the middle.<\/p>\n

Whether Ashley took the joke well is anyone's guess, though a fellow Blackburn fan, whose sister attended the party, admitted he "respected" it after uploading a couple of photos of the cake to social media.<\/p>\n

He wrote: "My sister went to a 40th birthday last night with a Blackburn Rovers cake\u2026 which was clearly made by a Burnley fan who put claret & blue icing in the middle. Regrettably have to respect it [laughing face emoji]."<\/p>\n

Fans on social media were loving it too, with one user branding the prank "genuinely superb".<\/p>\n

Which club has the pettiest fanbase? Let us know in the comments section below.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

"The sort of pettiness we can all get behind from this Burnley-biased baker," one person wrote, while another said: "This is the level of banter\/s***housery that makes the world a better, richer place."<\/p>\n

A third added: "You have to respect the bitterness here," while a fourth commented: "So petty, but I'm in love. Fabulous stuff." While a Rovers supporter added: "Hope no allergic reactions!"<\/p>\n

Blackburn and Burnley have largely avoided each other in the 21st Century, despite being a mere 15 miles from one another. The Clarets have won the last six encounters between the two sides and are unbeaten in nine in a run that stretches back nearly a decade.<\/p>\n
