Nicely settled in the Three Pigeons in Halifax only to find out game against Ebbsfleet called off as pitch waterlogged - again . Okay for me being local but felt for the handful of Ebbsfleet fans who'd travelled up from Kent and a Birmingham City who'd chosen this as his non league match . Went off ...

Yes remember being packed in like sardines on the Bee Hole end for the cup tie in January 67. The crowd of 42000 shows what a draw the FA cup was then .Out of interest looked at the attendance for the.home league game with Everton that season - a mere 11,500 !

By coincidence I got a speeding notice driving back through Todmorden from the Man City game - A 646 Halifax rd. If it's a genuine notice from.WY Police it will have a phone number for the Prosecutions and Casually Prevention unit on the top of the letter. - 01274 020510. Suggest you call this numbe...

Isn't Electron still there?

Yes amazingly still there at the top of Hall St- since 1955. . It was either there or the long gone Record Exchange on Standish st for a regular Saturday afternoon jaunt to bag the latest Van der Graaf Generator !

Yes just log on to your ticketing account and click on ticket exchange on the drop down menu. Barnfield stand still excluded from scheme though.

Where is the Ticket Exchange Scheme advertised? I hadn't seen it publicised but just checked by chance on my ticketing account . If you use the drop down menu the last link is for the Ticket Exchange which gives details of how it works. Basically if your ticket is resold you get a credit on your ac...

Now unable to attend Cardiff game so have just released my seat for resale in JHU centre block through Ticket Exchange scheme club are running for the game. Not sure though what system ticket office have for allocating the ticket ?

West Midlands- Slade

As things stand we have a train strike scheduled for Saturday 18th and usually a knock on effect to next day. So guess will be standing room only on the X43.

Looking at the list of QPRs backroom staff surprised to see it includes 3 ex Clarets - Damian Matthew as Assistant Coach, Micah Hyde in charge of U18s and loanee Gavin Ward as goalkeeping coach. Interesting to see if Beale takes any of them to Rangers if he gets the job.

Let's just stick with the Anti Football song. Simple Pigbag tune to follow and only 2 words to remember !

Called at my old address and ticket was there.

Although I changed my address the club sent to the old one, not a problem though as I still own the property

Same happened with mine despite updating my personal details with club back in February and the account showing the new address.

Understand the bakery has now been sold stc after being put up for sale in January. Shame if this means the end of the legendary Haffner pie.

Is Haffner's still in family ownership? I was at secondary school ( CGS) with Mick Haffner in the late 60s. He emigrated to Australia many years ago but still follows the Clarets I believe.

Bizarrely the whole game is available to watch on You Tube. Don't recall the sub goalkeeper Ian Walsh ever playing at any level for us . Was he a trialist ?

The sum total of Lennon's contribution....2 backward passes .

The more principled man u fans cut all ties with the club in 2005 when the Glazers took over and channelled their time and energy into setting up the alternative FC United of Manchester . Have a few mates who were part of this group and have been to a few FCUM home matches with them. Great atmospher...

That's 2 world beating saves from Nick .

Can't get that Springsteen song 57 channels and nothing on out my head.

Be philosophical, guys and humbly accept "it's the Burnley way "......one that's given us 5 years of continuous premiership football. Does it for me.

Believe he was just on trial with us, never contracted to the club.

Brunswick Inn, Derby for me.

Crystal Palace v Clarets , 51,482 May 1979. Final game of the season with a win getting them promoted to Division one. Played on a friday night if my hazy memory serves me well.

Dun't no framework so not as manager. Heard though that Bertie Bee might be stepping down at the end of the season so might be an opening there for him.
