Billy Balfour

I was buzzing when I read the news about the documentary, but reading this thread has made me realise that even good news becomes bad news on here.

If you’d have told the 7yr old me who waited for an eternity to see a snippet of Burnley-related news on Ceefax that we’d have a 4 part doc on Sky I’d think you were crazy! Absolutely cannot wait to see this!

Exactly, but there are a bunch of folk on here who are never happy.

Billy Balfour

I'm beginning to think that we have some of the most unhappiest fans in the country. A season like this one, and we still have people looking for negatives all over the place. Enjoy the current good times because football is unpredicable, and life is way too short.

Billy Balfour

It's a good job he's not a Muslim. I mean, just look at some of the comments on here on and elsewhere.

Despite the miracle VK has performed this season, under no circumstances should we pay him whatever it takes to keep him.

I can't believe you think he'd move on because he's solely motivated by money.

Billy Balfour

Well, it's best to lock everyone up, before they do something. Just in case.

Billy Balfour

Sometime around Mid-April, while walking around Foulridge.

Billy Balfour

As is the right to enjoy an event without having it ruined by a vociferous minority. Ruined? A massive state occasion like the one we saw yesterday ruined by a tiny bunch of noisy demonstrators? By heck, we really have become a paranoid country. On second thoughts, best to crush them with an iron f...

Billy Balfour

To be honest, I've always been indifferent towards this kind of stuff, but recent events are changing my opinion. The 'shouting down' by certain people and section of the media, towards those not fully signed-up to the cause, is way OTT. I also find it against our values as a nation. You can be eith...

Billy Balfour

A thread where people have a different opinion to you and some others, how dare they. Nah, best to get the police to lock 'em up. Like they did with those very dangerous Westminster city council Night Stars the other day. Council ‘deeply concerned’ by reports of volunteers arrested on coronation da...

Billy Balfour

He might have been squirming at the sponsorship. I doubt he cares much for football, given he's rarely at our national stadium, unlike William.

Billy Balfour

I think it would be better for some fans if we could turn the clocks back to the Fourth Division Days when nobody cared about us and many had given the club up as a lost cause. I mean, just look at this thread. It's embarrassing.

Billy Balfour

The best thing about this forum is that people will argue for hours, even over good news.

If I stay open do you think the king will come and buy a washer?

Not a chance. They do their laundering offshore in the Caribbean.

I must be the only one who finds it revolting!

I'm not a fan either. It's like drinking syrupy cough medicine.

Billy Balfour

I do so hope this happens.

A draw is not good for either of them.
Both teams need the win.

Cheers. A massive game, then.

Another humiliating defeat for Russia at the United Nations: the General Assembly has overwhelmingly backed a resolution referencing Russian aggression against Ukraine and Georgia, with 122 votes in favor and just 5 against. Even China, Hungary, and Armenia backed the resolution https://twitter.com...

Leicester v Everton this evening. Everton can't afford to **** up with this one.

What signs?

Heh. It shouldn't need spelling out.

Billy Balfour

Looks like he's good mates with SD, and he's basing his comments on what happened last April.

Billy Balfour

They'll also want to cut their wage bill while bringing in some extra dosh.

Billy Balfour

I've yet to read anything about him smacking people for having an opinion.

Billy Balfour

I'm thankful that Keane hasn't left. I like his entertaining rants.

Billy Balfour

I'll swear allegiance to my country, but not to a person who I only know through carefully managed PR. Fair enough, nobody is forcing this upon us, but it sure feels like a backward step, as well as being deeply anachronistic.

Billy Balfour

This swearing of an oath of allegiance to the king and his heirs is like a throwback to the days of the Norman overlords, and I say this as someone who is usually ambivalent when it comes to the Royal Family. A modern monarchy, eh? Don't make me laugh.

Billy Balfour

At least The Royals make dysfunctional families feel better about themselves.

Billy Balfour

Like I've been saying, he won't go to a trigger club, no matter how big they are. Anyhow, for those on here who are convinced he's off to Spurs, you can get 6/1 at some bookmakers. Get your money on it, lads.

Billy Balfour

The only reason I could imagine for VK leaving now would be lack of funding for the PL. Yep. This is what I reckon too. I'm hoping the speculation strengthens his arm. If VK is given the funding, he will be our manager at the start of next season, unless Pep decides he's had enough, and I don't thi...

Billy Balfour

It was the manner of Coyle's leaving more than anything else.

Billy Balfour

Planning for next season according to this article in the Burnley Express.

Not often he gets stuff wrong, he deletes his tweets he gets wrong and names about 10 clubs who all ‘admire’ a player

Sounds like a cousin of mine. He nearly always wins on the Grand National. What he doesn't mention is that he backs half of the runners.

Billy Balfour

The tide is going out for Blackpool.

Billy Balfour

He might have permission, but it's my reckoning that VK has been nowhere near any talks with Tottenham.

Billy Balfour

Bad losers, which makes it all the better.

Billy Balfour

And it's also karma for their shabby ticket allocation. Petty doesn't even come into it.

Billy Balfour

Just think if the boot was on the other foot and that lot rocked up here, diminished our playoffs hopes and at the end of the game they held a party for winning the Championship on our Turf. Just think how we would feel. We would be feeling like shite this morning and for a long while to come. Like ...

Going to be very VERY controversial.

Does this plane have a 'glow in the dark' banner?

Billy Balfour

By the way, the air police are over Deadwood. No other aircraft will be allowed into the airspace. Just one massive windup spread by the gullible.

Billy Balfour

Please no. This would be disastrous PR for the club, town and all the proper supporters. I'm sure it's a wind up but a little bit of me just isn't sure and it's taking the edge of the game already for me. Don't let this spoil your evening. If a plane does indeed fly over, it won't be towing a racis...

And he got banned. Lost his license.

Billy Balfour

There's more chance of me winning this evening's Euro Millions than this happening, and I haven't even bought a ticket.

That rumour gives me heart that it’s nonsense. Can’t imagine any aircraft operator agreeing to tow such a banner.

Not going to happen. Loss of pilots license and that would only be the start.

Billy Balfour

I set fire to my ticket and filmed as part of an existentialist art house video I'm currently working on.

Billy Balfour

I thought Jeff Stelling championed smaller clubs. All he had to say; 'It's a matter for Vincent Kompany, and I'm sure he doesn't require my advice'.

Billy Balfour

Would have been better if the club had organised a ballot for 2 supporters to take his place... I hope the Councillor and his good wife were in the ballot and it's not just a brown nosing the council job. Aye, always look for the negatives. What a bunch of tossers we have become. If you could bottl...

Never been, but in Skye the midges weren't an issue as long as you kept moving and stayed away from the busy places (or went to them on a bike) You were lucky, and we've been lucky too in the past, but when a big cloud of them descend on you, there's nothing that will stop them from biting, unless ...

Three weeks in the Austrian Alps in July/August.

What a bonkers match. Great Friday evening entertainment when you don't have a dog in the fight.
