I can play guitar, bass guitar, ukulele, mandolin, banjo, drums and a bit of keyboards - but don't ask me to sing!

Worthington Cup, November 2002.

I remember the atmosphere on this game. When Steve Davis scored, it was the loudest I'd heard the Turf for a while.

When I was younger my favourite player was Chris Pearce.
Glen Little always had people out of their seats and from the same era, Andy Payton was great, especially in the 99/00 season.
Of the current crop, I would say Ben Mee deserves a place.

Superb pics but heartbreaking to see the ground so empty for a first team game. At the time, we just got used to it being like that.

That was all I knew until the Orient game. The crowd at Wembley for the Sherpa Van trophy blew my mind!

Fair play to those Exeter fans as well!

Has to be Blackburn for me. I am an absolute bag of nerves for fear of losing and I can't enjoy the match.

I’m lucky in that I still go on the match with my dad. We used to go with my grandad as well. He passed away a couple of years ago aged 98 and I still think about him when I go on the Turf. I don’t get to go on as many games now as I used to but one of the games I go on each season is a birthday pre...

I can understand Bournemouth being angry at the decision but play was carried on and they managed to score from it. Had the handball decision not been given, they would have been given the goal. Had they stopped play to check the handball and it was deemed not handball they would have been fuming th...

I reckon you’re probably right. End the thread.

Just noticed that our game away to Newcastle is on the 29th of February. When was the last time we played on this date?

Reverted to the wooly claret hat again on Sunday. First wore it regularly in the Coyle and Wembley season of 2009 and kept it on, uncomfortably, throughout the whole of the final on a very warm day. Badge on the front is out of date but so am I. I still have my woolly hat with the old crest on it t...

Chewing gum. Forgot to take some for the last two matches that I went on and we lost both. I promise I'll remember for the next one.

I think some people misunderstood what this millennium means. I take it as being since 2000.

I’ve said this plenty of times before, it’s not all about pretty passing and scoring worldies. I love how disciplined we are in defence and in my opinion, that defensive display yesterday was great. Newcastle failed to get a shot on target. If our defenders succeed in doing that then that gives us a...

More chance of money coming into Burnley now from a Tory government as they were never going to give it to a Labour one Doubt it.

Okay, I'll tell you what, we'll compromise. I'll promise to stay in my lane (even if it is the one that ultimately becomes obstructed) thereby not pulling over too early and filling that lane too quickly. But so as not to push in, I'll make sure I don't overtake anyone. And like you say, if everyon...

No one is doubting the science Rick. It is, as you suggest, probably a British thing. If the traffic in one lane is stationary, they should not be left to rot, as the other lane gains all the advantage. Unless the 2 lanes are moving (which they are sometimes), there is an issue. Then surely it’s an...

If everybody was a lot more courteous on the roads in general and let people in then traffic would flow more freely.

A mate of mine teaches Bodhran but he lives up in the lakes. I'll get in touch with him and let you know what he says. He teaches in schools in Clitheroe during the week so it's possible he may be able to help you.

No. As wonderful as Campbell's version is, it's best sung by Webb himself. Webb's more ragged voice only serves to amplify the beauty of the greatest popular song ever written. Webb’s version is a cover of Campbell’s version of Webb’s song! :) The Elbow version is pretty ropey though to be fair. Th...

A huge gap, even this early in the season.

It’s still not all over in my opinion. Liverpool were 7 points in front last season after 20 games and still bottled it.
