The criminals are in Westminster.

And in China for not admitting at least 10 months ago what was happening and allowing thousands of their citizens to fly all over the globe spreading this feckin' shitstorm all over the world.

I thought people were no longer supposed to go for a test unless they had symptoms, or had been instructed to take one? The advice has always been and still is not to book a test appointment unless you are instructed or have symptoms but the 'walk in no appointment required' stations like the ones ...

Lots of media coverage here at the moment about lack of testing capacity and people being giving test appointments 100's of miles from where they live. There's a testing station in Burnley centre at the moment meant for people without symptoms which always seems to have plenty of people queing up to...

Will pubs be able to legitimately stream the game, I assume it would cost them more than a tenner if so?

Went past the COVID testing centre in Burnley this morning. Very long queue round the car park and many of the adults had children with them of school age which was quite worrying if they were there to get tested. Wouldn't read too much into it. The testing centre in Burnley is for testing people w...

Just seen this, really sad news.

Loved her in The Avengers and she was the only 'Bond girl' to become Mrs Bond (though that didn't end well)

RIP beautiful lady

Watched the first 3 episodes so far and quite liking it (apart from the featured 'highlights' of our game down there of course!) :( Mourinho comes across as quite a clever man-manager so far and I'm even warming to Dele Ali. Things started well for Mourinho though, willl be interesting to see if/how...

On another thread someone mentioned the radio station 'united DJ's' which plays mainly older stuff so thought I'd give it a try.

This was one of the first tracks they played, takes me back to my early disco days as a pimply youth..

Think the Liverpool v Leeds game was always a dead cert for televising.

Had it not been postponed I think our game v Man U may well have been selected as well considering what happened last time we played them and that there are usually goals in the fixture.

I feel a petition coming on.

I'd sign it.

Fred Truman has a nice statue in Skipton and 'only' took 307 test wickets, surely a bowler who has taken 600 must deserve one in his home town or somewhere.

Full kit looks good. https://twitter.com/BurnleyOfficial/status/1298553828330143744?s=19 Yeah, wasn't keen on the new shirt at first but it does look much better when you see the whole kit together.

I think Lionel Messi and Yasir Shah the Pakistan cricketer may be one and the same, I mean, you never see them in the same room together do you?

When all spectators are eventually allowed back, it would be great if Jimmy could be the guest of honour at The Turf for the first match to receive the ovation he deserves from his home town fans.

Would it be a good idea to change it so that the lower league team is automatically at home but have the option to play at the 'bigger' clubs ground instead?

(Obviously if both teams are in the same league the home team is as per the draw)

The decision for Hitler would have been easy as he was a bit of a cnut.

I'd like to think Truman and Churchill would have found the decision to use the A-Bomb harder to make.

One of the things I've always admired about the Pakistan and Indian cricket teams is the 'if they're good enough they''re old enough' approach to giving promising young players a chance.

When was the last time a 17 year old played for the senior England team?

Any game watched in a pub when Burnley have won is my favourite

It is somehow even more satisfying watching a win in a bar on holiday somewhere sunny with a load of neutrals or better still an opposition fan or 2

Won't be enjoying that experience again for a while though sadly
