I don't like the "mortgage" analogy, if I have a house which is mortgage free, I most definitely wouldn't raise another mortgage on the property if I'm going to stay living in it 🤷‍♂️ It appears to me that MG found a way to scoot off with the club's cash by selling his shares (which he has a right t...

Just phone that clubcall number if you're desperate for news, its 0891 12 11 53 (was that the number? Does anyone know?

0898 121153 if I remember correctly.

I know nothing about this takeover, I've not discussed the subject with anyone either in the know, or not in the know, thats via zoom, telephone, smoke signals or in person, and if i had, i wouldn't tell anyone on here. Thought I'd add as much substance to this thread as anyone else has. Chill folk,...

Or defending him.

Innocent until proven guilty, or are you saying he's guilty until proven innocent Eddie?

Returning fans will be a massive shot in the arm for the team, the fans, the club and the town.

Fingers crossed!

Another game against City where we close down but refuse to put a tackle in.
When Leeds played City they got in their faces and tackled, rattled City but we refuse to do it.

NordVPN was on quidco last week with 100% cash back.
If you're not on quidco, register it's free, and VPN offers come on almost every other week. Antivirus is the same, I got McAfee for 2 years with 98% cashback last month.

For me it's not so much the EPL, it's more a case of the entertainment (I use this term loosely) served up. Over the last couple of seasons, the entertainment Burnley have served up, has been really poor in the main.
Football is about entertainment, I don't feel we get that currently

A quarter of Birmingham has been sold for £5.4m.

They've massively overpaid, you ever been to Balsall Heath or Handsworth?

Barry_Chuckle

Except we then made Stephens our only signing... Which is still not ideal, having said that, at least Stephen's is younger than Lennon. Lennon is 33, 34 in April, whereas Stephen's is sprightly 31 year old. For me the Stephen's signing was the board trying to keep the fans and manager appeased duri...

Barry_Chuckle

How would you have gone about forcing Hendrick to sign ? Chinese burn...... Works every time :) For me, if there's a positive to take it's the fact we didnt tie Lennon down to a new contract. An aging, past his best bench warmer, tied down for another 2 years or so, isn't what we need in our "appro...

It would be just as accurate to claim that half of the world's internet users are hacked at some point.

In answer to the question, I've not been hacked no, and I reckon I'm just as likely to be hacked from using this site as I am using hesgoal etc.

Since WBA scored three against them, they changed their keeper and have kept 5 clean sheets in 6 games.

C'mon mate, they could have played with Stevie Wonder in goal yesterday, it wouldn't have changed the fact we had NO shots on target.

Barry_Chuckle

Hob Nobs surely.

Barry_Chuckle

If you are in a position where you need the money, money the club have retained for some eight months, you are threatened with potential price rises, withdrawal of the direct debit system and not being allowed to go into a ballot for any games this season. I call that bullying, I think it was shock...

Barry_Chuckle

Yep, 2 years since. Not missed it 1 bit.

Barry_Chuckle

2 years tracker with no fee.

Interests rates could go negative, can't see them moving much upwards anytime soon, I'd avoid fixing at present, especially if there's a fee to boot.

Just my opinion.

Barry_Chuckle

Thanks. It will be interesting to see what the club says. It's just that the 21/22 season is a long time off, and as you say anything can happen between now and then. £400+ is a lot of money to lose if you can no longer attend regular games 18 months down the line. I had a reply from the club..... ...

Barry_Chuckle

It's as though they go out of their way to make it difficult to cancel.
I wonder why they'd do that?

Barry_Chuckle

What happens if you continue paying your direct debit, effectively paying for your 21/22 season ticket in advance, but then your personal circumstances change, meaning you can no longer attend games during that season? Is there any way to get that money back, or would you just lose it? I emailed th...

All this does is encourage folk to gather together indoors,
Be that in the pub or at friends/relatives homes.
Stupid idea which will only assist with the spread of covid. Surely it would be safer to reopen grounds.

Crikey a few of us Clarets up here, I am in Stanley, Crook now....

I was in Crook on Sunday, parked at the community/leisure centre and went on the mountain bike to Consett via Broompark and Langley park on the cycle path.
Pleased to say that my car was still there when I returned

i used to live in aycliffe. not a nice place.

where i live in shipley (another wonderful spot)

I'm in Woodham which is slightly more upmarket

From Keighley originally, another less desirable place..
Shipley isn't too bad if you are on the Baildon side.

Would have been a soft one if given. What amazes me is comments from comentators and pundits, if that had been on Kane, Sterling etc the comments would have been "there was definitely contact, he had a right to go down" but when it's on a less fashionable teams player you get comments like "Not enou...

Lennon and Gibson weren't all that anyhow.

I totally agree, yet they'd likely have started tonight. Puts it into perspective really.

Anyway, I fancy a scrappy 1-0 win tonight.

C'MON BURNLEY

Barry_Chuckle

No, it's what you get when you have 7 injured! You saying those who left wouldn't be part of today's squad? You can't legislate for injuries, you can for first team squad players leaving, and you do that by replacing them. I would bet Hendrick, Lennon and Gibson would likely be starting with Hart o...

Barry_Chuckle

This bench is what you get when you see 4 first team squad players go, and don't react to rectify the shortage of numbers for 3 months.
If it hadn't happened to my club, I'd be pi$$ing my pants laughing.

Oh dear. Someone’s upset.

Upset, no........ disapointed, yes.

I take it you don't mind his comments then?

Barry_Chuckle

Well, I for one will not be welcoming Stephen's with open arms.
I find it sad that the club would even consider signing a player who was on videos singing derogatory songs about the town a couple of years back.

Barry_Chuckle

The window doesn't close until October what's all the fuss about? The fuss for me is the fact that the season started last week and we are down to the bare bones squad wise. We knew in May that several first team squad players were leaving, 4 months later, just let that sink in......... 4 months la...

Nothing personal but I'm glad you lost

No problem Ralph, they weren't the only ones to blow my acca, Duff duffed it for me too with Cheltenham getting beat.
My accas rarely come in so R*vers losing is a positive to come out of it.

Even predictive text wanted to avoid typying those 6 letters together.
I still think they'll get a result today

Sorry folks, I've just put Rivers in my acca for today.
I can't see Jason doing anything for Bournemouth and the team has been shredded. Good time for the Horse botherers to play them, and at 3/1 there's value to be had IMO.
