Wow it does take a while.
I’m romping League one with Sunderland. It’s about time someone sorted them out. Current run of 11 successive wins employing the gregenpress

Can some just cancel 2020. Period. Thanks

Seems a really odd time for encouraging petty politicking. I fear that some people here are in for a seriously tough reality check very soon.

Yes its a brilliant film.

Thatdberight - The cough hasn't been a big issue for me, but note the official NHS video says cough OR fever. Another day on and I feel I'm definitely coming out of it, I had more sweating last night but a much better night's sleep generally, and I have my appetite back which is always a positive si...

I had a phone consultation with the duty doctor at my local health centre (Clitheroe) yesterday. When I described my symptoms he said I ‘most probably’ had Covid 19. He said I was the 6th patient to call in describing similar symptoms and a couple of his colleagues had it. Surely, It’s everywhere. S...

They should replace it by re-running Dallas from the very first episode

He hit his professional peak when commentating on the rowing at the London Olympics.

Transferred in Barnes to my fantasy team after seeing him in the flesh against us.
Looks like a real player and has Burnley connections - thanks for the 19 pts.

Thanks

We could do with Bournemouth staying up - I think they'll find it hard to keep re-energising, its the big city clubs that are a bigger threat to the likes of us. Villa and West Ham would be perfect to join Norwich - but it seems Watford's new manager bounce has worn off. AFCB look vulnerable with th...

Vydra 8

Definitely the best corner taker I have seen it at the club, without question. Great engine and all round tidy player. If his passing was more accurate I’d wager he wouldn’t be with us. Our central midfield tends to be much maligned when we’re not churning out results but Westwood and Cork have been...

With the money they've got, the manager. and how brilliant they are doing I could see Sheff Utd getting him this summer. Reckon they'd be willing to pay well more that he's worth so could maybe get close to £50m for him The same Sheff United who are still paying some of their best players £8K a week.

Cubanclaret

Firstly, well done all of you who attended. You got your just reward and the fact it came from a Vydra worldie must have made it all worthwhile. Im sure even a few ticket holders didn’t bother in the end with the forecast. — Pope 7 Bardsley 8 Tarks 9* Mee 8 Taylor 8 Hendrick 8 Cork 7 Westwood 7 McNe...

I think this fixture has 0–0 written all over it.

I remember one good game he had.
Playing for bastards in their 5-0 defeat of us at Ewood. He was a wing back that day, left of a midfield 5.
We got off lightly, could have been 10.

Cubanclaret

Great game, pleased for Coach Reid - he seems a very likeable old school student of the game. Felt like it was 49ers game right until deep into the 4th quarter - can't believe they ended up losing by 11. 49ers will lament some of the play calls - they seemed to have Chiefs' number with their run gam...

It is funny seeing how 'sure of themselves' a number of these posters are

I was pretty concerned this season - as I think when we have been bad, we have been truly awful - but we've it a great vein of form now and I'm optimistic about the rest of the season. Jay Rod has made a huge difference.

Picked off !!

I'm on it. my first bowl was as a young chap indeed - watching the Bears beat the Patriots 46-10 from memory. Had quite a long period without much access, not having sky and stuff - but really got back into it the last 5 or 6 years. Been a great season - I hope Chiefs win, as Mahomes reminds me of J...

Cubanclaret

One of those players who swims with the tide a bit. Our best performances in recent seasons usually has him in the team playing well, but he does wear the look of being a bit off the pace sometimes, and doesn't exactly exude leadership qualities. Could be filed under enigmatic. I always feel Hendric...

When asked for my favourite ever Burnley player I always say Tripps and Robbie Blake.

Has he actually been getting in the Athletico Madrid first team of late ?

Cubanclaret

Agree with Spice on this, seems to be a good fit and for good value overall. Dyche will know what he's getting and it doesn't seem to be a case of a player acquired out of desperation which you could argue was certainly the case with Vydra and Drinkwater. Gibson, perhaps less so, I personally think ...

Cubanclaret

If Wells goes to Brizzle, I'd hope that at the very least we can sign a pre-contract agreement with Brownhill, then pick him up in the summer for £7m to trigger said 'get-out' clause. He might as well be playing for Bristol City than sitting on the bench for us. At least that way we'd have the promi...

Cubanclaret

Depending on injuries, I wouldn't rule out 5-3-2 with Brady and Lennon in the wide defensive positions - enabling Gibson to come in. We might be wise to match up Newcastle's formation; think Brady and McNeil would be a great combo - Lennon and Hendrick could also link up with Cork in the middle. Did...

Cubanclaret

The question mark re: Hendrick I believe is Sheffield United are keen in him, seems entirely feasible based on their largely uk / Irish based squad. If they could match our terms they certainly have a competitive edge with their flexible style of play that could suit Hendrick tbf. I guess they find ...

Interesting. Didn’t realise mike was that wealthy.
The concept of a billionaire is truly wretched.

The absence of midweek league games is definitely the most negative aspect of being in the premier league.

The only two Prem clubs I could see Dyche moving to from Burnley would be Palace (after Hodgson) and Newcastle (if things don't work out with Bruce) - but the latter might not desirable given the venom of the fans towards owner. I just can't see any of the others going for Dyche in terms of him bein...

The most fascinating part of QT for me was Swinson getting near silence to most answers and groans to others. She was totally destroyed. This was 1 mile away from the massive Lib Dem stronghold of Sheffield Hallam, Clegg’s former seat, briefly occupied by the odious Jared O Mara. Hallam is 65% Rema...

Incredible programme.
Emotional to watch it with my six year old in tears asking ‘why are we destroying the animals’ homes.‘
How distressed must Attenborough feel when he has literally seen the acceleration of utter destruction of the natural world in 50 years of broadcasting. Essential viewing.

Cubanclaret

I was embarrassed to meet up with my Blades supporting friends after watching that. I thought we’d probably lose but the lack of competitive edge and the ease of the home side’s victory was desperate. Hard to believe we could be so far off the pace. Credit to Blades though, I strongly fancied them t...

Excellent report Tony. It was like a blast from the past at a stadium we seem to be haunted - bar that one magnificent performance in 2008. A bad decision to take my nine year old son too. We certainly didn’t take our best yesterday. Some really sad and angry fans making it difficult to be proud of ...

There was a very amiable Everton fan who had positioned himself next to the coaches on Harry Potts way, and stopped to shake hands with as many passing Burnley fans as possible, letting us know that the best team won and we deserved it. Had a similar experience chatting with the locals after we won ...

The Sheffield Tap is excellent, certainly the best boozer I have ever known situated at a train station. Has lots of Thornbridge brews - unless something has happened in the past two years since I was last there. The Sheaf situated at Heeley Bottom (just off Chesterfield Rd) within walking distance ...

Interesting re the pundits. As an overview they are SO much better than their football counterparts. I suppose generally just cleverer types. I think Father Time has caught up with Botham. He offered surprisingly little insight for such an undisputed giant of the game. Ponting and Warne have been ex...

Great effort from Lowerhouse to run it to the wire.

Went today with family members and had a good day. Certainly a different type of cricket day but we took it a lot further than I expected albeit always feeling too far adrift. Australia deserve their success. We’ve had a great record at home against them in recent years but this is a fine Australian...
