We did in October 1972. He had scored 4 goals for us in Division 2 at the time and we had drawn at home to QPR in early September with Viv Busby scoring for them and Frank Casper equalising 3 minutes later. We lost 0-2 at QPR with goals coming from Leach and Givens in January 1973. I went to the aw...

I dont dislike JBG, and he has had some great seasons with us. However for all his skills he looks slow and ponderous. OK last night he cut in and scored a beauty with his left foot. However how often do you see us break, give it to him on the right wing, and expect him to beat his man and cross wi...

:roll: 🤔🤔🤔Thanks for posting this, that means it's 50 years next May that at the young age of 17yrs, I lost my virginity to a 19 year old lass after we drew 1-1 at PNE what a day that was for me, now here's the punchline, she was from......... Blackburn lol, the shame of it, where have my last 50yr...

Almost sold out apparently

That's a good effort.
Right, back to bed. It's after half three in Thailand.

How many fans are we taking tomorrow, anyone?

I went to a heavy defeat there. 5-2 or something. Big following.

Jimmy Mac used to tell a story about his early days at Burnley, when he first played against Newcastle at St James' Park, their team including the noted " hard man " Jimmy Scoular. Scoular hailed from the largely Protestant area to the West of Glasgow, and gave Jimmy Mac a few stern tackles before ...

Perhaps if he'd said the meaning behind his words, ie. that "Celtic fans have a tendency towards anti-British and pro-Irish Republican sentiments and they don't like Rangers players or supporters and I don't like them", he would have got away with it.

Best post on the thread.

It would be better than never going up, but I'd prefer to qualify for Europe again.

Not seen it mentioned on here (apologies if I’ve missed it) but our ex centre back Steve Davis is caretaker manager of Wolves.
He’s just been told he’ll remain in charge till 2023.

Mk1 or Mk2?

Quicknick

Conceding late on is a problem. I'm not convinced about Muric's ability. He doesn't look that confident to me. Poor performance last night by our standards. But we remain unbeaten, we are difficult to beat and I'm still optimistic. I think the other teams around us know Burnley are the ones to watc...

They'll be celebrating down the road.

When I had the temerity to critise John Bond and his mania for signing ex City players I was told via then Chairman and Hutchinson our then captain to take my support elsewhere I was always critical of the Bond regime and happy when they all left. I did explain in reply that I would be still here a...

Blackburn have played 2 more games than Burnley so don’t worry they are above us. Look at their stats…they either win or lose but no draws. We will finish above them because Burnley either win or draw….only 1 loss. UTC! [/quot If we were to go back to two points for a win, we'd be a point above them.

Quicknick

Pope for me with Heaton a close second. Stevo was a very good keeper but even at his peak there was always a slight frailty there….and I mean slight. He was excellent in 81/82 but lost confidence disastrously in 82/83 and his loss of form was definitely a factor in our relegation that year. He lost...

Don't do owt

Get Twine back, get Derv back in and other injured parties back. Rest is fine if we play it right

Lets go up and then attract a new top drawer Striker or two

Signing players in the EPL, strikers or other positions, will be the difficult bit. Assuming we go up, that is.

I've just been watching a few YouTube videos on the rivalry between KV and Racing Mechelen. Fierce, indeed. The last match was in 2004 and had to be abandoned with KV winning at Racing 2-0. A bit of research into Racing reveals sadly, that after recovering back up to the second divsion following the...

13th in the Jupiler League, coming off a run of three defeats, is his starting point. I really hope he does well. As has been said above, maybe a future replacement for VK.

Quicknick

An example of modern journalism at its worst. Purely speculative.

Quicknick

Just add my two penneth - but the interview was a complete waste of time. I didn't hear one single word said by Oh Alan Alan. And for me, he's the fourth best goalkeeper I've seen at Burnley behind Blacklaw, Pope & Heaton. Blacklaw first, eh. I wonder if you were a few years older whether Colin McD...

Quicknick

I didn't know him but sad news indeed.

Jack Cork was one of SD's best signings.

Quicknick

The lack of respect for what Dyche did at our club is embarrassing. VK has got off to a decent start but months in charge is no comparison to what Sean achieved. I sometimes wonder if if we can go up get this damn debt paid then have a year or two in the wilderness so we can get rid of the instant ...

Quicknick

Arguably the best goalkeeper of the last 50 years or so at the Turf. Would have been an England regular but for us having an embarrassment of great goalies at the time. No disrespect to Pope or Heaton but he was a real class act. also I watched Stevenson regularly. Great goalkeeper but I rate Pope ...

We’ve only ever had one 4-4 with Spurs, but that was an away game.

And we were 4-0 down at half-time. I used to work with a Tottenham fan who said he walked across Walthamstow marshes to get to the game.

Quicknick

The only thing this squad really needs is a forward. Suspect the ideal is a Chris Wood/Keinan Davis type - someone with physical presence (we need it in both boxes) and the mobility to run in behind and instinct to play on the shoulder. Obafemi is sort of in that mould- the thing that struck me is ...

Seemed a very nice lad in the post-match interview.

Roberts has a declared love for his home town club. Probably asked to be excluded.

It's his job to play for us.

I couldn't give a damn which job he gets, if he does.

I like the guy Yates at Blackpool, only 25 looks dangerous everytime I see him play. Think he'd suit our system and doubt he'd cost too much

We're one of the best now but in the second half of the season we'll be pumping teams every week. I reckon we'll buy a pacy striker in January, at that point we've got cover and quality rotations in all positions for when injuries and suspensions start to bite. Westy will be back to give Cork and C...

I was talking to an Everton season ticket holder about all things Everton yesterday at Edge Hill University. He feels sorry for Keane, and says he was brought in to be the leader and organiser for the defence, but it didn’t suit him to be commanding his team mates. Basically the same reason they ca...

It is. But in the U.K. there are around 8500 petrol stations.

There are currently 40,000 charge points. That number is going to increase by around 300,000 to allow for wait times.

It will still take an age to actually charge up, though. I think that was his point.

Quicknick

Superb article, Cajun, particularly the part that describes Ray being applauded all the way to the centre circle by the Burnley fans who all remembered his wholehearted displays in a Claret shirt. That summed up Ray to an absolute tee, he gave total commitment to every single game he played for us....

PS Hitchens was injured in that match vs Hungary and subsequently replaced by Alan Peacock of Middlesbrough .....no I can't remember him either!

Alan Peacock moved to Leeds and was part of Revie's promotion side.

If Klopp leaves Liverpool and VK gets offered and takes the job would you have Dyche back at Burnley? For me it would be no as it would be a backwards step and I don't think Dyche would get a tune out of the current squad but Im sure some on here would jump at the chance to have him back zzzzzzzzzz...

He's a big unit is Gyökeres but Vitinho just brushed him aside.
I must say my heart was in my mouth for a few seconds wondering if the ref might give a pen though. ‍

The Coventry message board were saying that our cenre-halves easily dealt with Gyokeres.
