There was a marked downturn with the departure of Tony Loughran and replacing him with Steve Stone.

One of the best players I have seen in a Burnley shirt. And I thought it was fitting that he played for us in our darkest season, as well. Not only played, but was a major part of our survival, scoring in the 2-1 win against Southend and a crucial 90th min penalty to equalise against Torquay. Witho...

Sorry to read this Roper and I really hope that the diagnosis is anything but MND. I watched a close family friend and known to many Claret following his diagnosis with MND a few years ago and it was heartbreaking. You have my very best wishes.

He got lucky with us into Europe

Otherwise the best Manager Burnley have had in my lifetime. Most of what we have now is down to Sean Dyche.

Having seen some of this game on a stream on my phone whilst out for dinner last night, I observed the following: Kane was lucky to stay on the pitch after what seemed a deliberate elbow into the face of Gabriel. He looked round for the defender then raised his elbow. Saka's penalty appeal was a div...

Historically had some terrible decisions in games rob jones has been involved in 2 that stand out from his catalogue of dreadful refereeing decisions are the "foul" on the keeper by Ben Mee at Leeds when the keeper went straight through the back of him and dropped the ball and the non existent "han...

Ally Mcoist was a good striker but talks absolute bxxxxxxs on the commentary he really does

What odds on a Tarkowski goal or assist? Far post corner and he comes round the back of our defenders. As he did in the cup game at Goodison and after our defending, or lack of for the Wolves set piece equaliser, I doubt we have learnt a lesson.

He's a great to me as I genuinely believe we wouldn't have had the subsequent Premier League seasons without his achievement. We'd have never signed the likes of Trippier, Ings, Shackel etc. without that first promotion and we'd have had a similar existence to PNE or, hilariously, Blackburn. Speaki...

How many Clarets went?

From memory I would be surprised if it reached a hundred. Back then there were so few, they used to name the crowd rather than count them

Herts Clarets

I remember going to Chesterfield in the forerunner to the Sherpa Van in 1986 I think with Stevie2112 amongst others. We won 2-1 in front of a crowd of just 1053. Could this be the smallest attendance ever for a Burnley game (pandemic gates excluded)

A lad who used to work with us played in the same side as Norris, I think it may have been at Hatfield Town. He was astounded that we signed Norris as he wasn't a good keeper at non-league level.

Potentially against another keeper who performed well at League 1 level......

Wasn't the 96/97 away kit the yellow Adidas one in the Waddle season? I've just sold that very yellow shirt to someone on Vinted and said it was that season (unless I'm getting confused).

Waddle season was 97/98 with the yellow Adidas kit.

If we had played the season with Muric in goal, Cullen in midfield in place of Brownhill and had a striking option like Fofana and or Foster, we wouldn't be in the mess we find ourselves in. And the blame for that can only land at the door of VK.

Who else do you want back to keep the medical team busy? Steven Defour. Jonathan Walters.

Wouldn't want him back, he wouldn't come back. Move on.

Only four players were deemed truly world-class by Sir Alex Ferguson during his tenure as Manchester United manager.

I can't take something seriously when it states that Mark Winstanley was a fan favourite at Burnley. Any mention of him during a game usually had the prefix Bloody Hell. Bloody Hell Winstanley, mark your man as an example.

Someone said the other week it must be written into his contract he has to play if he’s fit.

Or the owners of the analytics ...

I’ll get my tin hat on but honestly thought he was one of the worst goalkeepers I’ve seen play for Burnley (been watching 25 years before anyone asks).
