I’ve always had emails from them if anything was being changed or cancelled although unlike the OP I’ve always found them good to deal with. One thing mentioned in the thread, since Sky Q, the equipment is theirs so has to be returned should you cancel although I very much doubt that includes the di...

I’d like to see a pie chart to compare the cost to the club of few morons behaving badly and the interest on the loans taken out and secured against Burnley Fc assets

Why did I misread that and see the name of a religious sect rather than morons?

Two days ago Worcestershire's left arm spinner took three wickets in a second team game but he didn't turn up for the third day's play yesterday. He was subsequently found in his flat by a friend having passed away at the age of 20.

What sad news.

I'm told that Taffy's funeral will be held in Swansea on Friday, 17th May.

I'm still stunned that he's no longer with us.

Not many left now from those two great teams

Just Bob Seith & Alex Elder from our 1959/60 title team and I think maybe just Cliff Jones & Terry Dyson, the other two wingers, for Spurs.

I seem to remember him unfairly challenging Adam Blacklaw in our FA Cup tie at WHL. He soon found himself on the floor followed by remarks about his diminutive stature resembling that of a jockey !!
RIP Mr Medwin

Just a shame so many missed out on tickets because the club took a stupid allocation.

Lowest turnout of Burnley fans for a Premier League game there. I’ve understood some of the lower allocations we’ve taken recently but baffled with this one. More so with the number of non Clarets in there.

I was at Littleborough where we were battered by Enfield. Our deputy pro Tom Rogers played more like Ted Rogers. Things can only get better. And as for cold cricket grounds I give you The Pollards home of Oldham CC. Played there in the late Seventies and it snowed. Our pro that year Franklyn Stephe...

Thank you Tony.

This must have been mentioned but I haven't seen it:

When was the last time we were awarded a penalty at OT prior to Saturday?

We got two at the Stretford End in 1973/74, both converted by Taffy. I can't think of one since.

I never liked playing cricket in a jumper, but at Bash it was a must.

Great report. That 2 1 defeat in the Cup back in the 60s obviously hurt you as much as it did me! First visit - Law and Crerand in the last six minutes with Best running round with one boot in his hand setting up the goals. And then I waited, and waited and waited to see us win there. That 2-0 win ...

We played them in the FA Cup, 83-84ish. They were bad mouthing us pre-game but we sent them home with their tail between their legs, 6-1 I think. 3rd round 1981/82 - Steve Taylor(2), Trevor Steven & Billy Hamilton(3). You are right, they were bad mouthing us. They thought they were going to come he...

Good game at Accy, despite the arctic conditions

Is it ever anything but at Accy. Always thought of it as being one of the coldest although not quite Haslingden and definitely not Bacup.

At a fans Q&A with the manager, I think it was Steve Cotterill, Lee Hoos, our Chief Exec at the time, hijacked the opening and did a bit of a rant the jist of which was 'in the USA, a $70 seat was a $70 seat no matter who sat in it'. He really did have a problem with concession pricing. So it's not...

Out of curiosity, what would you say a reasonable discount would be from a full price season ticket to a seniors one? It was once 50% across the board at Burnley. I’ve been paying around 40% discount since qualifying but down next season to just over 30%. Rest assured they will reduce that discount...

Neither of the two local clubs have started their innings well.

I was told before the Brentford home game that Beyer and kompany had a disagreement after Beyer thought he was rushed back to fitness leading to him getting injured again. He had been back in Germany a few times since his injury

The one thing missing from this story is whose instigation this would come with. Do we want rid, or does the player? We are well stocked in that position, other players have developed, if we go down, and if selling Jordan means we don’t have to sell Koleosho (taking an example) then it could be us ...

We don’t get this info and we can only assume he’s with us given he had a Burnley top on with his initials on it. A lot of clubs list their coaching staff and all their academy staff but we don’t.

He certainly played for them down the road as well!
