He scores goals but doesn’t do too much else. Scoring goals at PL level is one of the hardest things to do though. Bound to score against us.
He holds the ball up consistently. He heads everything. He flattens defenders. He knows how to score.
Worth his weight in gold.

I do think the price rises for concession are high and have been introduced too fast, but concession tickets are still on average 30% cheaper than a full adult. A 30% discount does seem a fair amount to me, but does the club really need the extra profit from increasing concession prices, I highly d...

You just shouldn’t have been seeing an increase so high but worry not, having got away with it last year and this year, they’ll do it again next year. We are not supporters now, we are referred to as general admission tickets and they want more people paying more money. I will pay less next season ...

BFC is a commercial entity, not a community trust. They have a fixed amount of supply which they need to maximise profit on. It makes business sense to eliminate concession prices if those seats can be sold as full priced adult tickets. I think the issue here is more that fans are paying more for t...

Just reading an excellent article in the Guardian this morning by Jonathan Wilson about Spurs & their search for “plastic fans” at the exclusion of the long established local ones.It is the way the Premier League clubs are heading & who can blame them in their search for greater revenues. I blame t...

Not sure about making a living off of yellow shirts JakubClaret! 😁 Just thought it was of interest to everyone and could help the club, in the process. If it trespasses into ineligibility, for any reason, then it would be good to know how, in order to avoid. They should be a fiver by now, in any case!

I posted earlier about a club away shirt sales. It appears to have been removed.
Thought it was helping the club and our members, however, I must have contravenes an unknown (to me) rule.
Apologies. Won't repeat such things. Would like to understand why though. Cheers

Whilst I am concerned at home we are owned, the presence of Mr and Mrs Watt can only be commended. They have both been excellent for Burnley FC , the people and the town itself.

The happenings against Burnley, this season, in particular, clearly demonstrate a pre-determined 'ideal outcome' by the prem, for its own profitability. It is always reflected in VAR outcomes when toenails and end of nose or an elbow are enough to rule out a 'lesser' team goal, after about half an h...

In Catalunya, where I arrived, yesterday, the Calalunyan flag was flying, everywhere. It is San Jordi's Day here too.
Festivals etc.
English St George never used to get a mention, until recent years, when some towns/cities, thought they could draw in some tourists.

Predictable that the liberal regime would attack patriots on St Georges Day.
The knuckle heads are not patriots. Just thugs looking to stir up and get in the news.

It's a big problem for local sport in Britain. .Councils are reluctant to give out long leases any more as they see sporting facilities as potential housing sites with money making options. The clubs can't get decent sized grants without long leases as there's no guarantee the club will still play ...

Historically they’ve swapped back and forth between white and orange and back again a couple of times. Remember them playing in both back in the 70s then they reverted to white but about twenty years ago went back to orange. Can’t make their mind up apparently. Easyjet sponsored them, as Luton was ...

There was a big Q at the tip today. It was much longer when I left.
Missed 20 mins of Everton.

Everton win is the best result for us I reckon
Well they are winning, despite Wood's best endeavours.
If they are to win then win big!
I was basing my drawer on their collapse, last week and hoped all the wheels had come off!
