Also loved the telling the players to walk off the pitch together at the end, little things to encourage being a team again. He wont get the job and he shouldnt as it would be too much for him but what an 8 games he may have, going down in Burnley folklore Really? If he keeps us up when we looked d...

The more I see of him the more impressed I am.

Let's look at it this way, West Ham is a tough place to go. We didn't expect anything. We saw our team fight for survival and unlucky not to come away with all 3 points, taking into account Nick Pope's fine performance. The players absolutely don't want to be Championship players. We will see now ho...

I would much prefer Duff than some of the other names coming through... Wayne Rooney.... Sam Allardyce.... No Thanks! Clearly no room for sentimentality in business when there's millions of pounds at stake, but like many of our fans I believe Sean "got Burnley". No doubt about it Duff gets us too. H...

Remember Brian Laws?
I'm praying there is a plan for a replacement who has more idea than "our Brian"!

Ding dong the Dyche has gone.

Are you a Burnley fan or a Dyche fan? Seems too many are the latter on here.

Well
... What can we say here apart from jog on!!

Healeywoodclaret

Let's hope Mr Pace isn't fancying a pint anywhere in Burnley Town Centre tonight. I would fear for his life!

Thanks for everything Sean... You'll always be a true Legend at Burnley Football Club!

Sean Dyche understood Burnley the place, the economics of Burnley the Town. Most of all he understood the fans. "No one Likes Us". Sean did! The Yanks can get some Southerner in or Foreign Manager. They won't get us. The won't like us. Dive bombing down the leagues now..... Likely this is all we all...

Best thing to ever happen to our club.... Sean Dyche. Don't worry Sean won't be out of work long meanwhile Burnley FC ******! Plenty of opportunities he had to leave us and go to bigger clubs...... He showed Loyalty. Sadly they broke the mould when they made a Sean Dyche. We won't find another Sean!

When and if Wood hits form they will be piping a different tune. Certainly have the players to provide him with ammunition but when he gets that first goal will be crucial. Imagine he might do better away from home. Trouble is he will need time to bed in. He didn't get the best service, he's out of...

Yes excellent drama and superb performances from Celine Buckens and Tracy Ifeachor.

Before my time but obviously new his name and other legends from my dad. I now live close to Amble. We'll known and we'll loved here he is. In an interview with The Ambler not so long ago he said he loved every minute playing for Burnley. Once he is settled in the local Cemetary I will leave a Clare...

Far too much positivity on this thread ... where are the nay sayers and doom mongers ........... In't it brilliant being a Claret .... lets just hope we can get back to normality sooner rather than later, and enjoy an afternoon cheering on our heroes from the James Hargreaves, Jimmy Mac, Bob Lord a...

Healeywoodclaret

The problem is, a lot of people will be priding themselves on what they can get away with. And ridiculing the whole thing. Same people who think every rule is there to be broken. Its not hard to comply. Some just choose to be awkward, And some people have medical conditions, which are not clearly v...

If what is being said above is true about deliberately putting Covid as cause of death with no evidence, then it is scandalous. Is it because of a shortage of tests earlier? Or have we got some people in the NHS playing politics at such a sensitive time? I hope it is not the latter, but it would no...

What a stupid argument.

If, God forbid, I had been diagnosed with bowel cancer, and on the way to see my consultant, I was hit by a car whilst crossing the road, which would have killed me?

The car or the cancer?

Stupid question

Healeywoodclaret

Jesus wept if you are going to make sweeping statements like that ... then at least back it up with proof 🤔 Many people who have lost loved ones have complained that COVID has been documented on death certificates. A guy we know lost his mother aged 94. She had all manner of health problems. He was...

And thousands died.

What's your point?

And people who had been diagnosed with cancer had COVID documented on their death certificates. Therefore making the figures unreliable.

What's your point?

Healeywoodclaret

This isn't just about me or indeed you. For me, it's not only about keeping myself safe - it's about the risk I pose to other people should I become infected. You don't see this though, do you. You're one of those self-centered people who see the virus in terms of their own safety, but not the wide...

You are welcome. And remember not to be frightened of the shadows. Especially your own.

You said sensible precautions IF you have a Pre-existing condition OTHERWISE it won't kill you. Now maybe I'm reading this incorrectly or your grammar is poor. Anyway, whatever.

Really? Well, maybe you should go and tell my mate's wife that her husband isn't dead. Please don't post dangerous rubbish on here.

As I said sensible precautions.

I don't go the pub that often these days but I have never got into drinking at home. Nothing social in that at all for me I do like a glass of wine at home after work on a Friday and with my Sunday lunch but drinking at home can be damaging because its just too easy to drink more than you would in ...

Healeywoodclaret

I'd rather not risk my life to save a pub thank you. I assume that you aren't in a vulnerable group? I am. Everybody is terrified of dying. Sensible precautions if you have a Pre existing condition otherwise it won't kill you. I find people are terrified of life, just getting up in the morning scar...

No. Breeding ground for the virus. People in close proximity without face coverings.

Drinking a pint whilst wearing a face covering could prove a bit tricky!

Pub Landlady on the radio this morning (South Shields) "Our plans went a bit pear shaped really.

I found it difficult on Monday having to watch on TV but tomorrow, being a home game, is going to be even more difficult.

The score was difficult enough. Strangely I haven't read any comments about that although I don't spend a lot of time on the message board so I may have missed it.

Healeywoodclaret

Only watched 3 games as I’ve got better things to do with my time. Avoided the bore draws. As said above less play acting which I prefer. Saw some good football with the Wolves, Palace and Fulham games. But for Burnley I think apathy has set in a bit and I’m not desperate to watch it. Totally agree...

What's the big attraction about the spectators?

Fake cheering, managers in stands wearing masks, physios dressed looking like astronauts. Not for me thanks.

Oh thanks for the response Macca

Healeywoodclaret

No, rang them instantly and got ot immediately took off soon as the games got cancelled. They offered me 3 months suspension and other offers but if there was mo sport for however long, I didn't want to suspend, or use other things instead.

I just opted to fully cancel, then I can reinstate it on my terms, I hold all the cards then and have the power. I thought they'd be terms and conditions or small print. I got stung before off virgin, so wasn't falling for something similar again. Sky are usually top notch, so surprises me they'd t...

Healeywoodclaret

Have I heard correctly Sky are televising all games? Not sure I'd be interested in that with no crowds. Does anybody know what will happen next season with regards to spectators?

It's strange how some do and some don't. My auntie & uncle emigrated to Canada in 1956. My auntie lost her accent very quickly although it has to be said that was probably a blessing given she was from London. :D I last spoke to my uncle, who has since passed away, in 2004 on the phone to tell him ...

My husband is a scouser but he is more of a Burnley fan to be truthful. My son however supports Liverpool. Wasn't for the want of trying. I took him to the Turf a few times when he was small but he never bought into it. But we weren't flying high 25 years ago and it's fair to say we were shite.

Excellent post. Yes I can see that some would prefer the transient lifestyle and some simply can't cope with everyday admin such as paying bills etc. Totally agree more should be done and I really hope that once the Lock down is relaxed far fewer are on the streets.

Homeless people in Newcastle were taken off the streets shortly after The PM announced the Lock down.... This is excellent news. They are being housed in hostels. What does this mean when the Lock down is lifted? Will they be turfed back out onto the Streets? For years I've seen them begging and peo...
