''I seldom enjoy a Burnley match. Lots of big units dishing out dirty challenges and all marching up en masse for the inevitable goal scored from a corner. Can’t stand ‘em.

I do sort of admire Dyche though.''

HollandsPies

I really do enjoy reading this website when we get one over on Brighton.
They don't like us - which is funny.

You are spot on there Hipper.
I couldn't be arsed typing all that out.

A good workout too.

Headteacher is answerable to the Governors. Take the issue up with them.
I think i am right in saying all meat in schools is Halal.
(but not pork based products)

If you want to do it yourself:
Cut them down to about 5ft.
Remove branches so there is just the trunk.
Dig them out a bit.
Start to rock each one from the top of the trunk as this extra leverage will soon loosen them.

If the girth is too much you are wasting your time.

How are our front two playing?

HollandsPies

Tony L was a big fan. Particularly of Big Vince. He had 'BIG VINCE' emblazoned on the back of his footy shirt for PE.
Unfortunately the 'B' dropped off so it just said 'IG VINCE' lol.

(well it was funny at the time)

I see Chadwick had his BRFC shirt on.

HollandsPies

Good photos here aren't they?
Next to Rodders is Trout or Trouty.

Standige and Cats still go on matchday. Not sure about any others. Used to have a pint with Standige and Rodders in the Park View Post match.

HollandsPies

Some good lads in that lineup. Although a couple of years younger than me: Reeves, Routledge and Lumb all used to knock around the top end of Nelson - Townhouse Rd. Think Tony Clark was a Linkside Avenue-er too. Anyone recognise the WHS team from 81/82? We won the Burnley and Pendle school league or...

HollandsPies

Left of Ian Geeenwood was called Simmo or summat.
Back row, third in from left.

HollandsPies

Correction 78/79.

HollandsPies

That football team with Mr. Chapman on the right was my brothers year group. He was mates with some of them.
That year group finished in 80/81
There's a Greenwood in there and a Markin.

HollandsPies

Delighted with this.
Well done.

Morning everyone , so what have i missed ?

Absolutely nothing. Several posters posting drivel. Don't bother looking back.

HollandsPies

Cheers, sir.

Pre-81 Longsider.
Mr Markam finished in '81. Not '86 I think.

HollandsPies

Carroll didn't score today. Just saying.

HollandsPies

If Mr Grimshaw was away, then who is that leaning against the wall next to Mr Iven?

HollandsPies

Yeah, that's her.

HollandsPies

Second on the left from Mrs. Wellock. Used to fancy her. Not second on the right!

HollandsPies

Mr Powell and Mr Kilburn back row

HollandsPies

Think you are right there bobhino.
The 3 in front are Wolfenden, Haq and Bland

Can you spot Frau Sauer?

HollandsPies

Herts: could've been Powell or Dart. Mr Powell had an issue with us all conquering Burnley and Pendle football team. Mr. Birchall took over and it was in the days we played Saturday mornings. How any teachers would do that nowadays? Got a photo of the team from the Nelson Leader somewhere. As well a...

Lew Birchall began his teaching career at Burnley Grammar School and moved to Nelson Grammar School (Walton High) in January 1967. I was in my first year as a pupil then, but eventually became a close friend and colleague of his when I started teaching at the school in 1976. I can honestly say he w...

HollandsPies

Chunky lol. Teachers were different in those days. Chemistry teacher called Matthews got drunk on a Friday lunch and threw up. Mr Markham was an old school woodwork teacher: brown lab coat with leather elbow pads. Packet of Silk Cut in his breast pocket and a fag behind his ear during lessons. Penci...

HollandsPies

Sad news all round really. Mr. Birchall not only took us for PE but English too. He must have filled in where there were gaps in the timetable. Fond memories of him. Mr Grimshaw was my Form Tutor for 2 years until 5th year, then I got Mrs. Cunningham. He tried to teach me CSE maths too and I felt I ...

Loved doing woodwork, Babylon. Ended up with a young teacher called Mr. Taylor (who ended up at Clitheroe Grammar). Taylor used to bike it in on a Yamaha TY 80 and get rinsed mercilessly for it. Wasn't a Burnley fan either. Jack Rant: 'Gather round my bench second form ...', 'at all times keep both ...

Would love these two deals to go through if only to see the spelling of their names. A wonderful opportunity.

Was alerted to this last night. https://www.burnleyexpress.net/news/people/tributes-to-popular-pendle-school-teacher-3542187 My favourite teacher at Walton. Was gutted when he retired and I couldn't have him in the fifth year (Yr11 for you young ones). An inspirational teacher who ignited my interes...

HollandsPies

Decent first half. Enjoyed that.

HollandsPies

Their keeper looks hurt - unless he's pretending.

HollandsPies

That'll disappoint some posters.

HollandsPies

Oops, looks like a Huddersfield player has broken his back.

HollandsPies

A well known Burnley fan once pointed out to Hutchison that he had had a poor game that afternoon (was in one of the suites after the match I think). Hutchison wasn't appreciative of his negative comments and proceeded to grab him by his collars, shove him up against the wall and explain that he did...

Stay.
Best man for the job at our club all day long.

HollandsPies

Did you see that? 75mins and we string half a dozen passes together.

HollandsPies

Crap pass again. Was it Tarks?

Corner to us ... come on ...

HollandsPies

Bugger.

HollandsPies

HollandsPies

HollandsPies

HollandsPies
