I seem to recall going to a friendly preseason game in the early 1970s at Lincoln and there was a lot of agro. Upstarts.

They say that Moses passed through Bowling Green.

Very, very happy. I have got a father and son in my house at the moment doing some carpentry work and although I live in Hampshire they are both Rovers fans. Who would have thunk it. I'm walking around the house with my claret and blue bobble hat on singing to them. They are now well aware that we a...

Perhaps with less myopia than your goodself abc.

Balance is so important. I became aware of this some years ago after I had the joint in my left foot big toe immobilised. Pain free but I do wobble about a bit.

Corky

I'm sure it will be a busy day but will it be a productive one or will we be left frustrated. Still you can always sing to Mr Garlick as the match progresses tonight something like Garlick, Garlick wheres's the bread.

This thread reminds me of a song by Gil Scott Heron and Brian Jackson on their Winter In America LP. The track was H20Gate Blues which was a skit on Nixon and his administration after the Watergate scandal and one of the lines in the song went something like - his ignorance is surpassed only by the ...

I was amusing myself given what I perceived to be you being a little thin skinned with regard to the Kate Adie comment. That's the problem with working two dimensionally.

Corky

Indigo, I hope you wear Factor 50 when you go out in the sun.

I thought we were just having a bit of fun on a footy message board. I didn't think this was going to appear in Hansards.

Corky

I suppose given that it is a vanity project by the Donald it is more likely to be a golden wall (gold leaf) with flashing adverts for Trump Towers etc.

Corky

You're right the splash of claret and blue gives them a modern feel whilst still retaining a sense of history.

Corky

Shouldn't lose sight of the fact that some people can find beggars intimidating. I had to step in on one occasion and help a young woman who was being harassed by a beggar. I could see she was getting a bit upset by his persistent requests for money so I asked him politely to stop and was sadly met ...

Corky

Sorry if I am being a bit pedantic but isn't it more likely to be a fence.

Corky

Headquarters can always move. Look at Brexit.

Corky

Nor am I but then I don't need to be; as you rightly point out it is only a message board. Sadly some folks forget that and get all deep and meaningless.

Corky

I was wondering how that would work but I see from the article that his family have moved north with him. How on earth does all that work.

Corky

Clearly it is exercising a lot of minds on this board. It all depends on how serious the perceived insult is taken by fans of the club and indeed the club itself. I appreciate there is a temptation to ignore it (I probably would have) but others demonstrably have not. I would hope that no-one is lyi...

Corky

Peace of mind, I was thinking. Given this thread is still ongoing some sort of closure would help.

Corky

MACCA I got one from the Daggers for £5 post free. Worth a look on their site if you are interested.

Corky

Do we have a Press/Media Department at Burnley. Would, could, should (!) they take this up with the New Statesman to clarify what they meant. I understand that Rowls had tried without success. In terms of simple grammatical English "fans of Burnley" suggests ALL fans. He could have been more reasona...

I know I am breaking my own rules by getting involved in these type of tedious threads here, but, I will make a brief comment and then leave you to continue to bicker. Below is how the article starts. Racism in British football is clear in our newspapers as well as the stands Ethnic minority players...

Living in the South East I know quite a few people who support mainly London teams and the one thing they have in common is that they are all convinced that we will stay up. I'll settle for that.

Corky

Perhaps you all need to take a deep breath and await the response to Rowls tweet, should he get one.

Corky

For me we should now, at least, be looking at the options available to us as a club should be stay up. And I would hope that the Chairman and his board have some plans in place should we do so. It is all a case of how ambitious we need to be and I am not using that word as a means to beat them over ...

Corky

I think we need to offer a little more than that really!!!!!

Corky

I just ordered it from the Daggers also. Don't do techie stuff but my wife tried to get it on Kindle but couldn't. She said you had to do the monthly subscribe which she didn't want to do - the nerve!!! However all well in the end and just £5.

Corky

Hi Lucs86, I have just seen your response to my earlier post to IP and I have suddenly remembered why I don't normally get involved in this sort of post. Worryingly 2 people have actually liked your comments. I wonder if they were being ironic. I won't bother telling you what I was trying to project...

So what are you implying IT that Trump will be controlled by the Kremlin as opposed to Clinton being controlled by the Waspish establishment (big business et al). Also I will assume - if that hotel had surveillance cameras and microphones etc. - that the Kremlin will also have compromising stuff on ...

Corky

Looks more like a balloon. Mind you I have just had an operation on my right eye and I am finding it difficult to focus.

Corky

Spot the ball.

Corky

Whilst this doesn't have any impact on me whatsoever I would have thought that, if the team stay up, then the Club could freeze the prices for existing ST Holders at least. After all it has been mentioned on this site before that given the money from Sky we could run with an empty stadium. Something...

Corky

Well said Claretdom. I was thinking something similar. Frankly I haven't a clue what this guy is like. Is he what we want. Is he what we need. But then again I am not a PL Manager. But that doesn't seen to stop people having very definite views (based on what - I am not quite sure) giving very force...

Shame it's gone but that is the nature of this sort of thing. Don't know what KRBFC means though as I thought it had real presence. I thought it would look good to have something like the Our Town Our Turf put on the Culvert bridge. Though it may be seen as too much of an act of vandalism. But it wo...
