I might well have been, being 6'5'' or so. However, I don't recognise your online name and so can't remember sorry. Over 50 years ago, seems a long time that has passed by quickly. My teams always won haha. I am 72 now so yes it is a lifetime ago. I used to do 6-9 3 nights a week. Got me fit for th...

Yes I know you for sure. Also played cricket with CT for Redrose if that helps. Think you were about a foot higher than me

FCBurnley

Sad news indeed RIP

FCBurnley

Just googled it. Made by the Turog Brown Bread Company and was a competitor to Hovis. Turog means sleep in Filipino !!!!!!!!

FCBurnley

I remember Turog Bread but why on earth was it called that ?

FCBurnley

I was a leader at The Junior Clarets for many years. Loved every minute of it. Do the Club currently operate anything similar ?

`The keepers having a Mare`..............Brilliant................Didnt know he was from Blackburn !

FCBurnley

Goal scoring comparisons have 3 sections. 1/ The ability of the player 2/ The ability of his team mates 3/ The standard of the opposition.

FCBurnley

He’s not hurting Sheff U

FCBurnley

Goals scored don’t always tell the full story. For example scoring for Burnley in the Premier League is much tougher than scoring for Barca etc. Not claiming Wood is a superstar but I don’t believe Haller is worth what West Ham paid

FCBurnley

I would be cashing in on De Gea and playing Henderson if I were Man U. He looks a very good keeper

FCBurnley

I have been know to be critical of our signings (or lack of them) in the past. BUT when i see the likes of Haller and Fornals masquerading as multi million pound footballers (no doubt on multi million salaries) then I thank my lucky stars that the only similarity between Burnley and West Ham are our...

FCBurnley

At least 2 and possibly 3 errors by var today. It’s simply not acceptable

FCBurnley

I was appalled by our performance today. Thought we were totally outplayed by a very poor team. Ref was awful and gave us nothing and it was freaking cold up North. And now I have to drive all the way home to get some jellied eels. I knew becoming a Hammers fan was a bad idea. Guess I`ll go back to ...

Yes it was but it was not a dangerous tackle. Think they are called a professional foul in the modern game. You see them every game. No blame on Westy from me

What did Mee and Hendrick do wrong ?

FCBurnley

A total team performance. No weaknesses that I could see so

Nines all round. Men of the match Mee and McNeil

Nines are for starting XI only. No marks for subs

Damn you Westy haha

FCBurnley

Could even easier been 7 or 8

FCBurnley

Yea but they are playing spurs !!!!

FCBurnley

Mee header perfectly good goal or a penalty

FCBurnley

We look very strong. West Ham look awful. No need to sit back second half. They cannot handle McNeil

FCBurnley

Insane yellow for Mee. Great tackler

FCBurnley

This is a reverse of last weeks game

FCBurnley

Another super goal. Disallow that if you can

FCBurnley

Magnificent goal ruled out. Possibly an arm offside but ball had already left McNeil’s foot in the replay. That split second makes a difference

FCBurnley

Would prefer noble to stay on. Varmalenko is decent

FCBurnley

Gk not corner

FCBurnley

Not sure we should have had a corner there. Thought lady touch was off Barnes ! Just seen replay. Def a global not corner

FCBurnley

Would love to see Hendrick play well wide right but not seen it happen yet. Much prefer him cm. So happy with Taylor back

FCBurnley

Better grab the 3 points then

FCBurnley

Not sure you could run up a debt with PayPal ? More likely the other way round

FCBurnley

Of the bottom 3. A win however could take us back into the top half of the table. Today’s game is that important. UTC

FCBurnley

If we win it don’t matter

FCBurnley

Curzon Ashton will be a home game !

FCBurnley

2-0 goals from Wood and Barnes. All pretty routine stuff

FCBurnley

4-4-2 does not work without Wood.

FCBurnley

Think it’s all rigged !!

FCBurnley

2nd Chelsea goal was offside and given by var Blind was late so probably a second yellow. Penalty was insane and never a yellow. Just killing the game. 5-4 now h wait a minute. This gets worse

FCBurnley

The game of football that I love is crumbling before my eyes. Absolute insanity

You are correct. I meant to say his current wife was his secretary when he got divorced from his first wife

FCBurnley

Usual lies and abuse. Where did Ukraine leader say he’s ready to receive military aid ? Or did you make that up as well

FCBurnley

Sounds like he has the perfect qualifications for such an important role. His 2nd wife was his Secretary until he got divorced and he supports Bolton Wanderers !!

My Dad would have been 100 on Feb 28th 2020. He was born at 11.55 pm on Feb 28 in a leap year ! Huge Clarets fan.
