Logistics of collecting the money would be a nightmare Pay on way out. Got no cash left or bank account is empty and card declined You could pay into the equivalent of an escrow account i.e. an account where you pump in, say, £400 at the start of the season and a third party administers the debits.

You're thinking of Jack Straw.

Does anybody know if he's a real fan (ie been to lots of their matches etc)? Or is he a fan in the same way that Dave was a fan of West Ham/Aston Villa/whoever his advisers (foolishly) told him would give him lad-kudos? Real one. My brother lives in Kendal. Farron turned up on his doorstep when can...

Bit optimistic of the PL to use Hull City's shirt as an example. (see previous link)

Given the chief exec of the National League is a Blackburn fan, I suspect he's working out Rovers' best chance of getting promoted from the National League in season 2019/20.

Another M40 option is Amersham. You're guaranteed to get a seat on the Metropolitan Line direct to Wembley as it's the terminus. Did this for 1994 play-off final and we were back in Burnley by 9.45pm.

Not that this is any help to anyone, but I took out PPI on my first ever credit card in 1994. It was with Lloyds Bank in Burnley and I can still remember the name of the person selling it to me. As soon as I got home my dad (who has always been very savvy in these matters) asked to see the paperwork...

Not sure whether you have the option of custom captchas on here. If so, a simple Burnley related question (Who is the manager, who is the goalkeeper, where do they play, etc). If you're batch registering accounts you won't have time to look that up but pretty much everyone else will know or find th...

He blew for full time.

Remember the game. Wayne Biggins had a shot that hit both posts and stayed out. It was also the first time I missed a goal through taking a leak (a feat to be repeated many times since).

Venk will we see you again?

If there's ever a re-make of Catweazle (and stranger things do happen) Carl Fogarty is a shoo-in for the role.

What! No Phil Malley?

He lives in Cookham, near Maidenhead. Just a short diversion off the M40 on your way to Bournemouth. You'll know which is his house by the trail of fag butts from the pub to his front door.

Does anybody else remember folk being stood at the side of the pitch towards the end of the game and somebody making out they were going to trip one of orients players up as he went speeding down the right wing? Not sure if my memory created that one in the meantime. As BOT points out, that was Wre...

That's a game that's been massively understated over the years due to the magnitude of the Orient game. There were 3,800 on for that match which saw the clarets go a goal down early on. Superb fight back, the 2nd half was the best they played all season and Southend went up that year. Similar scena...

An absolute disgrace. And before anyone draws a comparison between Bechetti and Venkys, at least Venky's pay the bills and have never kicked a manager up the arse on the touchline.

It brings a tear to my eye reading CT's article and the responses on here. I was eleven years old and it was my second season as a season ticket holder with my brother. My Dad - a lapsed Claret following our 1976 relegation - made a rare appearance on the Turf. There's no doubt he was there to witne...

Whatever gets built, I'd like the club to install new wooden seats. They're more spacious, last longer than plastic ones, better for the environment and, more importantly, are less likely to aggravate the chalfonts in cold weather.

Pstotto - as someone who lives on the Kent/South East London boundary I can't agree that the water is undrinkable. I think it tastes infinitely better than the flouride-tainted stuff I get at my mum and dad's back in Burnley. The only thing that p!sses me off is the limescale which accumulates faste...

I might pop along to Griffin Park with the lad in tow. I think he'll appreciate the contrast between May 2016 at The Valley and May 2017 at Griffin Park.

People have an odd idea what a bread knife is though. Looking at the pictures, there's a large pointed kitchen knife + a smaller one. All the bread knives I've ever owned, whilst having serrated edges for sawing bread, don't have a stabby/pointy end like the two on the floor in the pictures. I have...

Let the situation see itself out. A few quid from Burnley supporters won't change anything, but we can (and should) pass on best wishes to an historic club. Sorry, got to disagree with you. A few quid from Burnley fans will help change things massively if/when the inevitable happens and the club fo...

Mark – what a brilliant, impassioned post. As a lifelong Claret now living and working in London – and also a veteran of ‘The Orient Game’ in 1987 – I sympathise with your plight. There are some on here though who won’t give a toss, or will think that the forming of an AFC will result in you being b...

The fans feel more connected to THEIR club for starters, you left that one right off the list I see. That's a very fair point, I admit. Yes its been a long road for them, but they're probably enjoying watching THEIR team more now then they did during the last few years before the old club moved. Al...

My mum used to say that my dad got segs on his arse watching telly. It was a well-worn phrase in our house too, usually muttered through gritted teeth and aimed at my dad when he asked someone to make him a brew while he was reading the paper. I used it once down here in London and got looked at as...

Pretty much by the looks of it. Milton Keynes got a football club. Wimbledon started afresh and are better off for it in the long term. Better off in what way? A division lower than they were in 2003? Playing in a stadium that's not even in their borough? Spending the first five years trying to fin...

At last, a post on which I can write with a degree of authority. Claret Tony is 100% correct in post #28. And for those who want to know my source, well it was Pete Winkelman himself.

We should let clubs go to the wall. Unfortunately, HMRC and the courts are far too lenient in the case of football clubs and unpaid tax. Take Portsmouth as an example; how many times did they survive winding-up orders? The reality is that if clubs are allowed to enter administration and either re-fo...

1 October 1990 at the age of 15 years and one month. Two pints of lager for me and my mate Simmy at Preston Guild Hall where we'd gone to watch Iron Maiden. Also got through a pack of John Player Specials too. Happy days.

Played them in October 1997 in the third tier. Waddle was the manager. *shudder*
