When he gets his chance I think he'll be immense. He has the battling qualities (and no little skill) which will fit brilliantly into our set-up.

Clarets Player Abroad

Hi All,
Bit of advice please - I'm over In France and trying to get tonight's game. My Sky Go isn't working with VPN and I can't see anywhere on Clarets Player to buy the game from here. It's on the match centre as 'live at 8pm' but I can't see any packages to buy
