Half a century too much.

We are inept at it. I hope it's a passing pad. They even try to do it in the Northern Premier League.

Probably, but it’s the one game I’ve really wanted to win this season after losing the other two against them

You didn't want to win the other games this season?

Just relegate them. Us to come above SU and LT then.

To be fair the average age of our posters is probably around 65-75, so it's not entirely surprising that they haven't gotten to grasp the changing times. And what's more, they still use the British past participle of 'to get'. Although its use in the US form is cumbersome in this sentence. 'They ha...

When Chris Wood signed on loan for Forest his permanent deal was triggered after he made 3 appearances, so it can happen. I imagine it's an FFP thing. Fingers crossed it's not the case with Tresor, though.

Wood has done well for them. Our best striker of the EPL era.

Odobert, Koleosho, Berge and Foster will be the ones recieving the most attention and any bids will need to be considered. That's the model. Never been convinced Benson and Zaroury will be with us next season, regardless of division. Just can't see Benson especially wanting another season in the Ch...

I hope we can keep hold of him in the Championship.

I’ve been impressed with Sinclair Armstrong on the odd occasion I’ve seen him. Definitely raw, but aggressive, strong and quick.

I wouldn’t be surprised if one of he more ambitious Championship clubs take a punt on him before long.

Three goals in 50 games for QPR.

I’d be all over Sammy Smalldicks from them down the road. Scores goals doesn’t matter how good or bad they are playing

Agreed. And wouldn't it p1ss them off!

At a glance, I thought this was a thread about Danny Whitaker, but this Whittaker has a double 't'. For those who don't know, Danny Whitaker is manager of Bradford Park Avenue. It looks like the mighty BPA are going down for the second season running.

They'd struggle to keep any sort of side together with that squad. It would need a complete rebuild, of Kompanyesque stature.
Most of them are getting on, and would want to stay in the Prem.

Which EPL team would want them?

It was the first home game I had missed all season and as a 12 year old my brother and I had been packed off to grandmother's in Poulton-le-Fylde. We caught the result on radio (she had no TV!) and were thrilled we had won due to Fletcher's first goal. The next day grandma took us to Stanley Park f...

Great days in the Longside, back then.

Lovely and unrestrained. No one taking photos of any 'misdoing' and reporting it.

Thanks for these reports, Tony.

6-1 vs Orient. Including an Arthur Bellamy hattrick no less

Correct. I was there. Bellamy had a blinder.

The joys of semi-retirement ...

Fair enough. It was a well-put-together piece.

Quicknick

It was his only goal of the season and I don't think he netted again until September of 71/2 when we battered Orient. So I was right. It was his first. Rather a good goal. I recalled it as being mishit somewhat. It sparked a fair old celebration on the Longside. POWER TO THE CLARETS! as Burnley fan...

Are you short of something to do?

I believe this was Paul Fletcher's first goal for Burnley. I was at the match. We all thought this win was significant. We both went down.

Foster and Fofana together for the rest of the season and we have an outside chance of staying up.

Excellent defender.

Rumours he is in a hospice are wrong according to this article.

Just been to King George's Hall to watch Robert Plant and you could hear the Ewood crowd from the town centre. I'm assuming it was Ipswich fans though must have been quite a few there......!

Jimmie Spheeris. Sadly died very young. Killed on his motorcycle by a drunk van driver in 1984. This is a lovely song from 1972.

Not sure this is clever. Best case, 1-2 points added back. Worse case, 3-4 more points taken away. As it stands they should finish above Luton. Take more points away, it starts to become less likely. We could be kingmakers in the final game even if we are down, we may have to decide who we want dow...

I remember going to Chesterfield in the forerunner to the Sherpa Van in 1986 I think with Stevie2112 amongst others. We won 2-1 in front of a crowd of just 1053. Could this be the smallest attendance ever for a Burnley game (pandemic gates excluded)

How many Clarets went?

Quicknick

I don't say anywhere that he's a top class Premier League striker so I'm not spinning anything. I personally believe, if his attitude was right (and this is the big question), he would have been a better option than Jay this season. Some fans don't like him because he wouldn't drop to the Champions...

Just checked, it was 8 in 10. I thought he was playing alongside Cooke too as we didn't have Payton then, but Cookey says Creaney was keeping him out of the team. Did we go with one up top under Waddle for a bit?

Creaney partnered the free-scoring Paul Barnes.

The guy will be 32 and have 1 year left on his deal by the time next season starts. He won't play for Burnley again.

We need to sell him, then. If not, play him for a year. He'll be good in the Championship.

Fair enough point QN but I wonder if Company values him though.

Probably not, SWC.

We went into a PL season with Foster as our main striker and Jay Rod as back up. Surely Wout would have been a better option? Unfortunately, I think he burnt a few bridges when he packed up and left after relegation. The Roberts incident in the Holland vs Wales match proved as much. As has already ...

What do you like about him?

He holds the ball up well and is skillful. He looks good when playing for Holland. I think a lot of Burnley fans dislike him because they think he has an attitude. How does any fan know? Anyway, the Dutch tend to say exactly what they think.

I'd like Weghorst back in the squad.

Just listened to part one. Cooke is an interesting bloke. Articulate. The interviewer is really professional.
