I would like to donate the original painting of Burnley FC Dream when I have finished it, to the forum/ to raise funds. Is there a charity you feel strongly about or would it help to raise funds for the forum? This is the busiest and most active forum I think I have ever been on it is amazing! So w...

Watford have dropped Deeney today - not scored a goal since 1st October. Totally agree with you on those two, neither offered anything against us.

I've no figures to back it up but I would suspect, to a large extent, the labour voters were not those generally voting to remain.

A nice sentiment but she does represent those in Burnley who didn't vote for her too.

So you are criticising the manager and then saying you want to get back to the Championship. Amazing.

ClaretTony

I see Mariner is the referee. One of his assistants just flagged a Leeds player offside. In his own half. They really are embarrassing at times. Correct decision - introduced in June this year and has twice come into play at Burnley this season with Mike Jones and Andre Marriner getting some stick ...

Not true - she was a regular on the Turf until we sold Jimmy Mac and she hasn't been since. I've also done her a disservice, she's 88 but will be 89 tomorrow.

Jensen, West, May, Todd, Camara, Chadwick, Branch, Grant, Farrelly, Blake, Facey.
Subs: Weller, Ian Moore, Alan Moore, Chaplow, O'Neill.

Stan signed all those players

Just when you think the thread cannot deteriorate - someone mentions Easton

I would assume that Tarkowski, like Bikey, would look world class in midfield compared to Edgar

ClaretTony

Edgar helped save SD's first season playing in the holding role. Edgar started 11 of the 33 games Dyche was in charge that season so that could hardly be a player who saved the season. Yes, he scored that late equaliser against Cardiff but he'd come on as a late sub in that game. Only started one o...

Will there be scope to add more if/when they do the other end of the BL stand up?

There will be some at that end of the Bob Lord.

Quick Update You will see in post 67 above that I suggested they might be in place for the Arsenal game. As you will know, that didn't happen. They are getting closer though but there has had to be one change made to the list of names. Unfortunately it wasn't possible to find a suitable image of Jac...

I don't know how much it cost, living locally it's not something I've ever had to use.

Andrew Watson brought it in - he said it was to provide us with a better service when all it was doing was taking more money off our fans.

ClaretTony

A couple of weeks ago a campaign organised by West Ham supporters led to the club removing premium rate telephone numbers to the ticket office which often meant supporters running up high costs. That left just three Premier League clubs doing similar - Burnley, Crystal Palace and Sunderland - and I ...

I don't know how long you are going to be laid up, but just get in and get it done - I imagine you are suffering quite a bit of pain with it to necessitate the op.

As for Stephens, I don't agree that putting in a bid for your number one target then waiting 6 weeks to increase the bids is in any way "doing as much as you can" to close the deal. In fact it's downright amateurish. If you think that's what we did - but that's far from what we did. I'll repeat, we...

ClaretTony

Yes, more than willing with Grosicki and Stephens, and, had the Grosicki deal collapsed earlier then I'm sure we'd have had another player in. I don't think we could have done much, if anything, more to get Stephens.

I must have missed this posting of a £60m profit - when did that happen?

Absolutely spot on

Can't agree at all with OP - I want Burnley to be competing, as best we can, in a league with the top teams in this country. I want the opportunity to see fantastic wins when they come, and we've already beaten both Manchester and both Liverpool clubs in the Premier League. Do you remember the day i...

When I started this thread it was for no other reason but to let people know about the day yesterday.

Mine really started in the late 90s. Things weren't good at home at the time and that was made worse by a situation at work which was difficult for myself and some others to deal with. Combine the two and it brought me to my knees. I can honestly say that when I was at my worst, it was the football ...

I'm thankfully able to manage without medication now but I know there are times when things become very difficult for me.

Always worth reaching out if needed. I did a few years ago on CM and received plenty of support. Redbeard also gave me his phone number that day and I had a couple of chats with him that, along with the written support on CM, helped me get over my dark spot.
