You might be in for a surprise. The last match I attended was a youth game at nearby Ashton 16 months ago and I am itching to get back on as are thousands of others. We will pack the Chaddi and fill the Royton end, I can see 5000 clarets making the trip and making it a game to remember Can't fukin ...

Even if we only need him for three or four games. Hopefully don’t even need that. I’m sure our defence and the fans will be much more confident with him between the sticks.

And so the drip drip drip starts. How long until you need to permanently carry 'your papers' in case a copper needs to inspect them to ensure you are in an allowable location.

I'd be amazed if there were anywhere near 3750.

Be fantastic to get even half of that figure.

Got to remember it's an away friendly, a lunch time kick off, and the start of the school holidays.

I am sure we will fill the away end and then some.

Again (and I’ll keep banging on about this until people get it) being vaccinated isn’t just about personal risk, it’s about everyone’s risk.

It’s a massive yes from me based on that header against Sweden alone.

Again, if you have a genuine medical reason that means you can't have the vaccine, then you have my sympathy If you don't, and you still won't take it, then you've gone down the anti-vax propaganda route and you'll be on here ranting about 5G masts before the week is out Not going down it isnt nece...

In all seriousness that is a brilliant bit of business. Experienced goalkeeper and a good one at that who is coming in for a few years as backup. But as many above have said more than capable if needed.

BPF and Norris fill me with zero confidence. Hennesey has plenty about him.

cricketfieldclarets

Hennessey was the first team goalkeeper at Wolves in 2008/09 when we went up with them. They also had David Jones, Stephen Ward, Sam Vokes, Jason Shackell, Michael Kightly and Chris Iwelumo that season. I think Hennesseyn might be the last of them to sign for us. Just spotted Sylvain Ebanks Blake a...

Because when you do have it you may be fine but the person you give it to might be dead.

Which would be a fine argument… if the vaccine stopped you catching and transmitting it.

Again from someone who will be having both jabs.

This is the first game back for alot of people and the first away day. Even if it is only a friendly I seriously think we could suprise a few here and take thousands. Thoughts?

Thinking exactly that. 100% a sellout.

If vaccination passports aren’t a requirement I wonder whether more or less fans will attend. I’d think twice and certainly won’t be going without a mask. I will be double jabbed come season start.

Would you recommend renting a vehicle or just hire a driver?

I have heard that hiring a driver is a really good experience

Yes. Brilliant place. Absolutely lovely. Especially this time of year. Good pubs and excellent parking. Locals can get a bit arsey though if you park up on the free street parking!

Would the passport system prevent the age group of 18-30 getting to matches at the start of the season due to them not having time to complete their full vaccination? Or does the passport system include being allowed to prove a negative test? Negative test result at Wembley. Although the crowd to g...

I believe wearing a mask stops it. Although only protects the non mask wearer.

For those questioning the sub. Holland used to regularly sub their keeper under van gal for penalties. And it worked.

To anyone "thinking" it's a fix, use what little thinking skills you have to answer these two questions: 1.

There are many Clarets who follow England both home and away, I don't think they will be forgetting England for the next 12 months.

I was at the final against Italy and counted 5 "Burnley flags" around the stadium.

And plenty more there without flags also.

Zaha would absolutely have made a difference for England at times. Perhaps would be behind the talent we have now. But would always be a useful asset to have in the squad.

Sancho 21, Rasford 23.

What do we do, take them in age order? Because that would be equally bizarre logic!

I wouldn't have picked Saka purely on his lack of experience and age, and I wouldn't have given them to anyone who'd only just come on the pitch.

Croatia didn't play 6 out of 7 matches in their National Stadium.
