A good day's work Tony, thanks, have a rest now!

CleggHall

In the words of a well known song!

CleggHall

Not our Matty Taylor, he is at Northampton.

CleggHall

1960 FA Cup tie v us had a famousish player Andy Graver?

CleggHall

Looking for a new Frank Casper!

CleggHall

Didn't have to wait LONG getting a new loan!

This could be a phishing trip but here goes. I saw the film on Tyneside where it was filmed, the cinema was hushed at the end and, though it may be fiction, the story of how the benefit test system grinds claimants down is both moving, unjust and cruel. Well acted and directed, it should be compulso...

CleggHall

Time to move on at 88 and make way for a youngster.

CleggHall

Yes you did, Merson said it was offside and in any case not a foul by Mee. All the panel thought Burnley unlucky/robbed.

CleggHall

Shackell scored own goals on Sundays!

CleggHall

An old Etonian who got on Mrs Thatcher's case re the sinking of the Belgrano during the Falklands campaign.

CleggHall

Did Jock Winton go on to play for Rochdale? I have hazy memories of seeing him at Spotland.

CleggHall

The other 3 contestants went home with £4,500 apiece, Accy lass got nowt.

CleggHall

With a brain like that "the author" remembers nothing!

CleggHall

The rawness is still there in your report Tony, glad you pointed out that Moss moved away only for the lino to recommend penalty and no offside. What injustice?!

CleggHall

Good moaning!

CleggHall

One of the best comedy series around, one I would take with me to a desert island. Played off the basic stereotypical characteristics of the French, German and English to a tee. Kaye's accent and timing were great, RIP Renay!

CleggHall

A good post, thanks.
Would agree with everything that Hackett writes about the 2 penalties and severe punishment for Wenger.

CleggHall

A silly, unnecessary foul to make, Ozil was going nowhere, a self-inflicted injury.

CleggHall

Reckless, 2 footed lunge which cleaned him out. Lucky to avoid serious injury, red card offence.

CleggHall

Yes a decent article, can't disagree with its general thrust and opinion. We need a few points away from our rickety home!

CleggHall

Relegation, Brexit then Nissan closes down, happy new year to the Mackems!

CleggHall

WEC - you found the caps key a year ago in typing your name, give it another try!

CleggHall

The guy has just lost it this year, good night and goodbye.

CleggHall

Darling happy anniversary!

CleggHall

A great article and tribute to a great Burnley man, warm, understanding and oh so true. Many building blocks go into the reasons we all love the Clarets but Brian Miller was a very important corner-stone. Thanks Tony.

CleggHall

Mackems fans are more grounded in reality than their Geordie neighbours who are prone to excessive optimism and exaggeration about all things Newcastle United. Rivalry was probably based on which of Sunderland or Newcastle is the capital of the north east but, as a citizen of Newcastle, there is onl...

CleggHall

Guitargeorge - happy birthday and I hope that your life was not as much a rocky ride as your team's. A wonderful journey on which I have accompanied you since 1959.

CleggHall

This was public dissent, criticising the referee's impartiality and competence and undermining confidence in appointed match officials. For this he gets a slap on the wrist, hard to understand.

CleggHall

Are those 3 residents of a local sanatorium?

CleggHall

Many Geordies get this wrong by naming Jackie Milburn, Jimmy Adamson is a forgotten man in these parts.

CleggHall

minnie - 3 footballers of the year were born in the same street in Ashington I believe, name them.

CleggHall

Hartlepool in the cold driving rain in an open-topped stand but a good real ale pub in the town.
Carlisle where Burnley fans took over the pub across from the ground but had to use the back door.
Rochdale where the Cemetery Inn was appropriately named.

CleggHall

"I thanked the Lord ......".
That'll be Bob no doubt!

CleggHall

Last January?
What's your point exactly?

CleggHall

Tarkowski played the last few minutes, last season he was at Brentford.

CleggHall

Colin Shindler, Manchester United ruined my life.
Duncan Hamilton, The footballer who could fly
Mark Hodkinson, Life Sentence. A book on the trials and tribulations of supporting Rochdale.

CleggHall

Hope so!

CleggHall

Great thanks for this ClaretAndJew.

CleggHall

A great photo Tony, thanks for this. Two of the best strikers to ever grace Turf Moor, how many other clubs have such supportive ex-players?

CleggHall

A nice article, comes across as a decent guy from a tough upbringing who has now learnt how to live. "I am a completely different person now".
Good luck Andre.

CleggHall

Tristram now that's a good working class name!

CleggHall

The London Clarets Newsletter was an amazing source of information, match reports and opinions on all things Burnley in the days pre-Internet. Lovingly put together by dedicated southern Clarets who liked the odd pint of real ale too. Trust the lads whose names all ended in o are still going strong....

CleggHall

That's why the bookies win!

CleggHall

Can I suggest one word? Mee!

CleggHall

Any relation to Trevor Cherry, Leeds Utd?

CleggHall

Where did it all go wrong for Eagles?
A player with his talent and ability should still be playing top quality football at the age of 31.

CleggHall

The Guardian too are very negative about the game - "truly appalling tie, anything to relieve the tedium etc". Not how I saw it, a decent tie between 2 evenly matched teams which Burnley definitely shaded and should have won. You sometimes wonder whether reporters actually attend and watch...

CleggHall

Not objective stats I know, but Tarkowski is currently winning the man of the match poll with 46% of the votes.
