Burnley 3 Blackburn 3, FA cup tie 1960 sticks in my throat, 3- nil up when ref gives an appalling penalty for handball against Alex Elder. We lost Ewood replay otherwise we would have won the double!

CleggHall

C'mon the Dale!

CleggHall

Nice that he mentions Long and Tarks, it can't be easy being a squad player getting only the occasional game but every club needs them these days. We won the 1st division in 1960 with 12/13 but those days are long gone. Dyche seems to be able to keep most players happy, in or out of the starting XI.

CleggHall

Rory Storm and the Hurricanes!

CleggHall

If that's the case (evidence?), we should do away with postal votes and reduce the turnout figures even more.

CleggHall

"Ladbrokes the new official betting partner of the FA" - says it all really!

CleggHall

A mere coincidence that Joey's trial by the FA was a couple of weeks ago!

CleggHall

To encourage voting let's use 21st century technology and vote by mobile phone, Internet etc. Why do we have to trail to a polling station and use a blunt pencil on a piece of string? This would perhaps encourage the young to vote and grey people who don't have the technology could still use their p...

Kenton the figure is 100 billion euros not 100 million! Quite a difference.

CleggHall

Spice pens the best player ratings, sometimes as good as a match report, keep 'em coming.

CleggHall

Todmorden and Littleborough, next question?!

CleggHall

Bairstow innings today of 170+ would be worth seeing, pity he doesn't play 1 day cricket for England.

CleggHall

Agree with many of the points above but southern beer really was awful in the 1960s, early 70s. I went to university in Reading 1963 and you sure needed courage to sample Courages. Many pubs put free bottles of lemonade on the bar to top up your pint and take the edge off it. I believe CAMRA was for...

Has scored a few goals for Northampton this season too.

CleggHall

Quite an achievement those marks on his 1st Premier League start, this guy could go far.
Well done Tarky, it beats Boundary Park!

CleggHall

My first season supporting 59/60, champions of the 1st Division with a classy, cerebral attacking team. Goals aplenty from Connelly, Pointer and Robson, scheming subtlety from Adamson and McIlroy, fullbacks to dream of in Angus and Elder and Blacklaw was a very decent goalie. Unsurprisingly it has b...

A lovely little tale, family supporting Clarets, there must be many out there.

CleggHall

All down to Burnley's Lara now!

CleggHall

Three international bats got starts, three back in t'hutch!

CleggHall

He's special to us though and we (Burnley supporters) are the ones that matter. A modest guy SD but thank god we've got him.

CleggHall

Ward is in Garth Crooks' team of the week, BBC website despite only playing 45 minutes. Crooks credits him for the great cross for Barnes goal. John Motson seemed to think we would be relegated prior to the Palace game.

CleggHall

Lancastrian solidarity!
For one day only.

CleggHall

Have they been in the Calder recently?!

CleggHall

Face the front and smile for the cameras lads, don't be shy!

CleggHall

Credit to Dyche for signing him in January, we obviously needed cover for Barton's pending suspension, Ashley stood up to the plate, bided his time and today demonstrated what a good signing he could be. Not a bad transfer window me thinks!

CleggHall

" Headered Bowls" as Merson would say!

CleggHall

ThinLizzy - try George Reynolds, ex-chairman Darlington AFC, c/o George Reynolds Stadium, Darlington.
Cash only terms, used banknotes.

CleggHall

As an outsider and committed board member, I have enjoyed the debate between Spice and Belgian. Informative, different viewpoints but both are well-written. Not sure where I stand on the issue since I haven't seen enough of Defour, he was OK in his 90 minutes at Sunderland but didn't pull up any tre...

CleggHall

Sheridan, the new Oldham manager, went for experienced players to stave off relegation, and succeeded.

CleggHall

Paragraphs 2/3 show that Joey was a useless gambler, unsurprisingly a constant loser (as many are). He won nowt but his addictive nature prevented him resisting one further last bet ( and then another!). A mug's game for most but Joey could afford to given his high football earnings.

CleggHall

Is this ban still "staggering"? Difficult to argue so. Joey should have recognised his gambling addiction problem earlier, sought help and advice. He is a bright, intelligent, articulate guy but has been prone to periodically going off the rails throughout his life. Why? I guess that's the key quest...

CleggHall

Joey's statement is a good one, a complex and troubled individual throughout his life but gave his all for Burnley on the field. Will be remembered as a good footballer who contributed to our recent successes, a pity it had to end this way.
Good luck in your future life Joey and many thanks.

CleggHall

Should be charged for failing to turn up against lowly Burnley. They never went for it or tried in the 1st half in a game they needed 3 points from whereas 1 point was a good result for us. No wonder he took it out on the BBC lass.

CleggHall

It would be nice if someone could post all the League results each week if only to keep this Geordie exile informed of Tod's progress.

CleggHall

If that was May campaigning - must try harder!

CleggHall

Blair fought the 1983 General Election on a promise to withdraw from the then EEC, what comes around ...goes around!

CleggHall

We were never at the races when the circus came to town! Seems to sum up Sunday unfortunately.

CleggHall

Lancs batting a bit weak but with Chanderpaul, Davies and Livingstone showing early form plus Hameed to come, may well confound the critics. Lyth, Root and Bairstow have hardly set the season alight so far!

CleggHall

Agreed Bordeaux, nice to see the comments change and evolve over the course of the 4 days.
Lancs didn't have a prayer after the 1st innings but ....what do we know?

CleggHall

Yes to win from out for 109 in 1st innings is some achievement, 2 good innings from Davies and Livingstone, I presume, set it up for the bowlers.

CleggHall

What Jeff wants, Jeff gets but I feel sorry for Jones, no need for this public humiliation on Sky.

CleggHall

Frank, if we go down,so will your boat!

CleggHall

Hameed out for 7 in 2nd innings.

CleggHall

Yorkies chasing leather, Hampshire 215 for 3,Root bowling says it all.

CleggHall

A day for the bowlers at Old Trafford.

CleggHall

Has got off to a bad start admittedly, little has gone right for the lad since breaking his finger on England duty. Will come again. In any case the rest of the Lancs batting is hardly shining this morning.

CleggHall

Both of them would be unlikely to start if fit on Sunday?
A question/discussion point.

CleggHall

Turned out nice again for Cameron and Osborne!

CleggHall

....as reported only in the Evening Standard, as yet unverified but possibly they should know!

CleggHall

Yes it's a very testing time for traditional, loyal Labour voters. Corbyn and his London mates offer little to northern voters, he has little leadership experience, ability or acumen. Give him a chance and his instant reactions are nearly always wrong. Has no idea where he stands on Brexit, did litt...
