Tony might be able to confirm but think he had broken into the arsenal first time by then.

Yes possibly, but didn't he still go on loan to Bolton at that time; allegedly instead of us..?

Transpennine

Didn't we nearly sign him in Jan 2010 before Coyle took him to Bolton. If we did sign him now, then it would prove Owen correct about Bolton being 10 years ahead of us...

Let's all sack it off. Remove any human element and watch E-Fifa-Footy-Soccer or whatever its called. It'll be dull as ditch water but we'll all be happy in our boredom knowing the decisions were all correct.

Transpennine

Done.

After the plane at City, Darren Bent on Talksport basically said "Why are we surprised Burnley is a racist town and racist fans with no black members in the playing side?".

Ah yes I remember now. I'd tried to remove that whole sorry saga from my memory...

I’m surprised we deal with Talksport following that City game last season.

What was the issue..?

His 94th minute equaliser at Leicester rightly is remembered by all. However I think his free kick away at Birmingham (to make it 2-2 ;I could be wrong on the result) was better. We were watching from behind the opposite goal, but we knew where he was going to put it.... and he did. Proper "postage ...

' Northern' is just the name of the franchise and not a company. Arriva (the company) were removed from the franchise and the DfT effectively took over. Its a misconception that train companies buy trains, but they don't. It's the DfT that pays for any new ones. In answer to your question, nobody kn...

I stopped after reading this: "This is on the club’s roadmap for development" I.e: It's at the very bottom of a "strategic dynamic priorty list" on a whiteboard, in a small office in the Bob Lord called the 'innovation & creation centre'. Which nobody has had sight of since everyone was made to wor...

Yep....the away end at Fratton Park at that New Years Day game was as cold as Ive ever been I think !! Yep. The game was played on a sheet of ice. I remember Torvill and Dean up front running rings round our defence. No wonder Marlon got sent off. Game should never have been played. And as a 16 yea...

Not aware of a link up with an American club but I don't think we could dismiss that

Didn't we do that previously with Brendan Flood, or have I dreamt that..?

Why shouldn’t it be?

To save repetition, in response, what DandeClaret says above, is my stance on it.

If premium content (an interview with the owner) is available free then why should people pay for clarets player? It undermines their own product.

I'm not sure how you've arrived at that '11', but John Gayle? He'd finish bottom of any relative list even if we'd been unfortunate enough to play as low down as the eighth tier. Truly awful, who stragely remains popular with burnley fans for scoring a goal with his shoulder on TV and nearly breakin...

Oakwell March 1995, Kevin Lynch, 9 men, Payton scores but not for us, the biggest travesty of refereeing I've seen.

Fantastic player, and a proper grafter....I really hope he realises the grass isn't always greener.

Aye... but if you're good enough, it usually is:

1. Get rid. However that isn't going to happen 2. Use the principle of 'umpires call' from cricket. The aim is to get rid of the howler, support the official and back the onfield decisions unless theyre completely incorrect. Principles are accepted. Its not about getting every decision right, becaus...

Yes this hinders Dwights attacking prowess, however I must highlight that the two best defence splitting passes in the game were done by McNeil in a central position. He drifted in midfield an played a great pass to the bombing on Taylor and the next one was the through ball that gudmundsson hit th...

It wouldn't be an Eddie Howe thread without Claret Tony telling us all how much he disliked him.

We were always a good bet for BTTS though...

To be fair he's called both results correct tonight. Clarets win and wolves draw.

No - that game we should have won !

That was one of the worst performances I have ever seen from a Burnley team. It was hands over eyes for 95 minutes watching us lose the ball at the back time after time. I think Rhodes got a couple for them and we were lucky to get nil ! Was that when Duff got done for that 'Handball ? Or one of th...

Yeah but they didn't have Sean Dyche as manager they !! Anyway its not about the money he can spend as he has always said he wouldn't just splash money for the sake of it instead its about how Sean Dyche is being treated by the club.

"instead its about how Sean Dyche is being treated by the club"

How is he being treated? Its the same every year isn't it?

Given the money Fulham seem to be spending and the ability to attract players like Lookman on loan of course he will go to another PL club including Fulham if the chance arises. He looks and sounded like a man at the end of his tether with the club. He will be a clear target for any club who finish...

Your having a laugh, first club to get rid of a manager in the PL this season he will walk straight into. He is being treated appallingly and the club will be totally screwed if he goes. Its an absolute joke.

Relax, its Friday; and no, he won't be going to Fulham...

I'm not sure it makes much difference to the club really. I get the feeling the higher we finish most of the money disappears on player bonuses anyway.

It'll matter to the players then...

Absolutely correct. And if I was at risk, like my mum, I wouldn’t be going near the pub. But I’m not at risk, and I can only assume that anyone else in the pub is likewise not at risk. If they are, then “Darwinism” kicks in. Manage risk, and all should be better than no risk management. You're not ...

After weighing this up:
