Was that because of the company.... or the cricket ;-) Hope you're all well down there in the Sunshine. We are all fine thanks Dan. More wet than sunny ! The company was good especially as he paid for lunch. However, we were badly let down by our batting superstars who are obviously so used to play...

Great day. Here are some snaps. Amazingly, my wife managed to find me three times during the run. Off to bed! School residential tomorrow!!!! Many congratulations John we knew you would have no problems on the day after all that solid preparation. You will have had a more enjoyable day yesterday th...

Barry Kilby's input and resources rescued and revitalised BFC at an extremely difficult time. Ownership of Turf Moor and Gawthorpe was reestablished and the basis for Wembley 2009 was created. During the Kilby era "the ranch was never gambled". However, under less judicious ownership the ranch is no...

Thank you John for this great posting and the wonderful photographs. The route is a little too long for us, however, we intend to walk a shorter 5 miles Halton Gill circular route. One of our favourite walks is a Burnsall round trip taking in Grassington and Hebden, a 7 miles circular. Last week we ...

27 August, 1957 Burnley 2 - Preston 0 Alan Shackleton (another Padiham Preditor) scored both goals Interestingly only five players to play regularly in the Division 1 winning team two seasons later were on show that night :- Angus, Adamson, Seith, McIlroy and Pilkington. One of Burnley's great inter...

Has anyone received a refund for the Middlesbrough game? I'm still waiting.

Also, they've just charged me again for the Swansea game!

Refund for the Middlesbrough match received this week on my credit card statement.

BedfordsDad

Today, after resending my original e-mail and requesting a response to my claim for a refund, I have now received confirmation that they have actioned the refund, which will be credited within the next seven days.
Maybe I will now try the system once again for Friday's game !

BedfordsDad

"Legend" used far too freely these days but Barry Kilby is the true embodiment of the word.
An absolute gentleman who used his personal resources to reestablish Burnley FC on a stable and secure footing.
He has given us so much to be thankful for.

BedfordsDad

Cash now in my account.
Oh me of little faith !

BedfordsDad

I’d be interested to know the correlation between people blaming the previous owner for our current situation and the people that wanted him out of the club. In my opinion he was driven out of the club by fans expecting us to spend unsustainably each transfer window. The best way to sell the club w...

Nothing has been too much trouble for Elaine, even at the busiest of times. Many years ago whilst watching Northants v Derbyshire I saw Elaine, who was there to see her son play, and asked her if she could check the availability of two well located seats. This was done within a few days and season t...

I know there are a few posters on here have read it, being London Clarets, so I would suggest you wait to see if they think it was worth the read before you think about spending some money A comprehensive and clear article on this sorry story under the title of "Please drive carefully". Other contr...

First game was in August 1957 against Preston, standing in the Enclosure.
2 - 0 win for the Clarets.
Two of the greatest ever British footballers played in this game; Jimmy McIlroy and Tom Finney.

BedfordsDad

Surname "Spencer" and 2 refunds for the Bob Lord received today.
Quite a lot of criticism of the Club but this has been an enormous task and one which many airlines and holiday providers have totally ignored.
Thank you BFC.

BedfordsDad

I was at that Portugal game at the old Wembley in 1961 on a school trip. I remember how proud I was to be a Clarets supporter and how the others on the trip wanted to know more about Burnley FC after Pointer's and Connelly's contribution.

BedfordsDad

Good to hear that Stephen Ward is now back in full training, who is such a key player for the Clarets. In fact I don't think we have won a league game since his last appearance.
Certainly one piece of positive news.

BedfordsDad

Excellent piece of sub-editing Tony !

It is essential to have the problem identified at the early stages, as in my case. Even with the unfortunate cut-backs in most NHS budgets cancer issues are acted upon quickly. After two months of preliminary treatments/injections I was on to my 7.5weeks of daily radio therapy. 12 years on I am here...

BedfordsDad

It is mystifying how new signings are continually questioned by supporters. Surely we should know our capabilities in the transfer market and that we have to focus on the best that "Poundland" can offer. It has been and always will be the case for the Clarets. In the last few years the Club has made...

I had been having major issues with Clarets Player with the advent of the new providers. The final straw was not being able to access the commentary from Deepdale, after which I emailed a complaint using the address provided on the Burnley FC official site, pointing out that I was no techie so a jar...

We all saw Yorkshire choke yesterday, with 4 of their players in today let's hope it's not a case of deja vu.

I am now beginning to really question the plausibility of the contributions offered by this poster.

BedfordsDad

Yet another indicator of the Club's progress under Dyche. Particularly pleasing for Stephen Ward and Kevin Long. Ward has enjoyed an outstanding season, consistently showing his skills in defence and forward play to such an extent that he has become the teams most reliable performer. Long has return...

Regular updates from Leeds appear to have somewhat dried up !

Suggest you look at the composition of the England squad where you may well find the reason.

BedfordsDad

I am saddened to hear this news. For me Noble epitomised what it takes to be an iconic Burnley player. Reliable, hardworking and a willingness to play anywhere for the cause. A true legend.
Thanks Tony for the excellent obituary.

BedfordsDad

Perhaps it would be eminently more sensible to let the cricket do the talking !

BedfordsDad

I am thinking that Lancs may well have to sign even more KOLPAK players to become competitive this season.

BedfordsDad

Certainly my player of the season. His performances have been of the highest quality since he became a regular in the side in January 2016. A great Dyche signing.
In my opinion he is one of the most capable and dependable left backs I have seen play for Burnley, only out ranked by Elder and Newton.

Enjoy it whilst you can. 14 County Championship matches since the last one. It may be sometime to wait for the next !

Head to Colne then over the tops to Skipton just after the cattle grid before you drop down to Carleton. On a clear day an absolutely stunning view of Noth Yorks,Lancs and the Cumbrian mountains in the distance. Know this spot very well as my Uncle had a farm on Elslack Moor. Magnificent in good we...

In a recent edition of the London Clarets journal "Something to Write Home About" , Dave Thomas reported that there was no sell-on clause in the Michael Keane contract. Maybe Sky Sports has not fully researched this issue.

BedfordsDad

Thank you Tony for providing some excellent and well researched articles to the site. It has become my foremost source for all matters concerning Burnley FC. It was eagerly awaited after we spoke at Milton Keynes last year and it certainly has lived up to expectations.

BedfordsDad

Stephen Ward has been one of our most reliable and consistent performers both in the Championship and Premier League since January 2016. He is a totally committed Dyche style player not only in defence but he also plays a significant role in the opposition's box at set pieces. The manager will be mo...

BedfordsDad

Please no makeovers as I am quite comfortable in there. In fact I am probably sitting in roughly the same spot as I stood for my first game in 1957 in what was the old enclosure.

BedfordsDad

It's brilliant what they are doing but the NHS need to do more and not keep being cut back on finances and resources. We got an appointment in June for our son to see a specialist in Blackburn urgently for mental health issues. We got a letter to say it was in May next year. Not really good enough....

BedfordsDad

Stay positive and have total faith in your treatment team and you will be well on the way to recovery. With every good wish.
