Still many questions to be answered , probably in time . Servicing the debt on Burnley’s meagre profit margins will be tough. They have big ideas yes but that’s all just hopes and dreams. How has it been done in other clubs? Selling the assets , relocating the ground , flipping the debt . There’s ju...

BMH Hong Kong . Loads of fit nurses , plenty of beer . Left Burnley at 16 and never came home

Blowing smoke up our ass , fans passion ? Oh aye nothing to do with money eh ?
Snake oil.

It’s an investment consortium. They want to make a profit . How ? Usually by taking out loans on the fixed assets , training ground, stadium. We won’t know if these are rapacious asset strippers until they behave that way . They are not Burnley fans let’s be clear . Bolton , Swansea etc all took the...

Well I’m Scottish so got away with a lot that night , I’d been Burnley since age 8 so I had to put on my accent just to get through the bee hole to the long side . It was rough yes but pretty normal for a Scots lad . Whittlefield was a rough area but they had never seen wee boys like us with knives ...

That’s cos they never played us , ask Newcastle , Sunderland , Seville etc what rangers are like, no different .
I loved that Celtic game by the way . What a night. The return leg was great too, plenty went up there and the Celtic fans couldn’t have been friendlier .

Dixie Normous

Shock horror , Burnley fans don’t like Celtic . Ah bless their little blue noses

Wembley here we come , another great **** up in deptford with Millwall Scots fans . Always a great time ,load of ******** about animosity , most lads get on well and have a great laugh.

Dixie Normous

Seems like every team have got our number , first time Brighton line up with five at the back and nullify any of our lump it tactics . No criticism of Dyche but we really need a change of style

Dixie Normous

Didn’t know there was a Friday adeola so apologies for the Sunday one
I was hoping for rangers , mo Johnson , Watford , SEAN DYCHE.

So a new railcard available to ‘veterans’ of the armed forces . Qualifying period of one day in the forces . One day . How can you be a veteran if you only spent one day in the mob? Plenty join up and pack it in after a few days or weeks which is fine but to regard them as veterans makes a bit of a ...

So anyone up for joining a zoom group for the games ? I could host it . Start about half hour before game to get the beer in and say hello .

Dixie Normous

Any other zoom hosts who would be willing to host a clarets match zoom hang out ? It says a host can accommodate up to a hundred people so maybe we only need one

Dixie Normous

Bugger yes zoom is limited to 40 minutes

Dixie Normous

Tony : what app are you using for your match chats ? Zoom ?
So someone needs to volunteer to set up the individual groups . Any south west clarets out there interested ?
Shall we have a poll of interested bods as we may not have enough for the little groups . It’s all a bit new to me

Dixie Normous

Great so how are we going to do this ? How many can zoom handle ? Any tech minded bids want to lead the way ? A trial drinking session would be a good start to chat pre match .

Dixie Normous

I’ve been using zoom for work and it’s ok for chatting to people . It made me think about watching these games coming up and it would feel good to watch them with other clarets . What do folk think about setting up zoom meetings and watching the game together ? We could split into areas, south west ...

Well you had the hop at the end of the road , what a great place that was at the weekend

Dixie Normous

I moved down aged 10 to live in a slum in whittlefield. All my Dundee compatriots lived on trafalgar flats but they were far from friendly to even us fellow dundonians. Anyway I soon settled to life as a claret and only reverted to my Scottish roots when we play England . I left Burnley as soon as I...

The beer in pubs is far better these days, as is the choice. The only down side is that the pubs are closing and being replaced by micro pubs, that have little atmosphere

Better than Sam smiths in the bobbin ?

A good pub is a rare find these days . They usually look like **** holes from outside so put off the ‘look at me ‘types but can be an oasis of peace and quiet and a good pint . Time was your mum and your dad and your brothers and sisters and aunties and uncles were all in the pub , ladies in the lou...

the 'dirty donkey' was a great little boozer for us locals , always packed on a weekend. The Derby too, my mates Dad was the Landlord and he was rough but the pub was alright. Don't get me started om Dickie Pinks though

A Bristol city mate telling me today that brown hill deal looks on with nakhi wells going other way . He was unsure about Elliason and says he is the player who seems premiership quality right winger and tears up the pitch . Fingers crossed we are in for both

Paul Scholes just made my night with the inevitable “we shouldn’t be losing to a team like Burnley “

Lowton tackle ! Great stuff . Every player getting stuck in

I’d bid for Lawrence Shankland who is banging them in for Dundee United . And yes some will say it’s a much lower league etc but Andy Robertson doesn’t seem to struggle having made same route .

Dixie Normous

Ya beauty . I doubted. Idiot me . Of course Burnley will always be there for me so must for them .

I’m trying but it’s hard at mo. The half time replays looks like a foul on cork though . Keane disagrees but always cheers me up to see how pundits shuffle nervously when Roy speaks .

Dixie Normous

That , right there, is us finished . Last hope gone home , faiths fecked off . Leak goals . Can’t score . Only one way that takes us .

Dixie Normous

Why don’t we all just ignore all this and focus on football . We are losing our minds with it all .
Oh hang on I’ve just done what I’m suggesting we don’t do . See it’s made me mad .

Calm down Tommy, must be a while since you've been in the ring. You did have a good right hand though.
