Can anyone recall roughly which year the Longside was divided off with the Away section and " no mans land " installed ?

1974

Yet you missed the spelling mistake ha ha

Typo. I don't mek speling errers.

Stepehns is a good player who was injured for a long time at Burnley.

Quicknick

Vivid recollections of Burnley going there in early '74 for an FA Cup match. Over 26,000 on Boundary Park that day and a scintillating performance from us with a 4-1 win. Dobson (2), Fletch and James scored for us. A proper old-fashioned ground at the time. Hard to believe almost 50 years ago. Huge...

That is a hell of a following, even by EPL standards.

I've just watched the game, we were excellent.
We are lacking a genuine target man, dare I say a 15 goal a season striker. But our on the ball stuff is a joy to watch

Swansea's Nigerian striker, born in Ireland, I forget his name, was probably that man.

Quicknick

really pleased Darko isn't too badly injured. We have some squad. You forget Twine!

Quicknick

I'll be very disappointed if it is a cruciate ligament. Darko looks to be one of the best signings. Reminds me of Glen Little which can't be bad.

Kaiser Beyer had a touch of Beckenbauer the way he strode our of defence.A short cameo but he looks a class act

Kaiser Beyer. I like that.

Quicknick

Just watching it now. Can't see myself watching it all, though.

Quicknick

Of course, you're right. Whoops! Silly me. Running even longer now.

Quicknick

WTF is this thread still running for?

They weren't alone there

Rangers as well.

This is very sad news.

Why aren't Saturday's games all of, as well?

Delighted they got stuffed in the Champions League.

Quicknick

The only clubs that I can recall "taking the Longside" were Man Utd, Liverpool and Everton, and one year Wolves actually took it in an FA Cup tie. Big city clubs with much larger support than us. I stand to be corrected of course. Correct. Wolves was in the 3rd round of the FA Cup. The week after, ...

No. But played at Burnley.

Who for?

Quicknick

I'm fairly sure that was the season we really struggled over the first half and looked somewhat doomed, but came to late on and suddenly went on a good run which led to survival. The year after when we finished mid table as someone has shown might have been the one which started similarly poorly, b...

Quicknick

Every port town/city I've been in has felt rough. Agree about Rotterdam.

Quicknick

You should be if you are any sort of true Burnley fan Leicester would be geared up for an instant return & a very strong championship side, ideally we want the weakest teams to get relegated & Leicester aren't included, you only have to look at how crap Norwich were in the PL & where there are now ...

Quicknick

My take is that with the death of Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha whose millions got Leicester City into the big-league his family are looking to wind it down again but without sending the club into financial freefall by doing so. A major factor in their success has been Jamie Vardy, who has one, perhaps ...

Quicknick

I don't think Leicester's fans would be very impressed if Dyche took over there.

That is a very cheap shot at our ex chairman.
Could you possibly, please, drop your agenda and just get on with embracing the future?

What did Ian say that was inaccurate?

Quicknick

Good report, Tony.

Quicknick

How many debuts has he had?

Quicknick

Maybe Beyer will solve that problem.

Quicknick

Being the eternal optimist, I predicted the following before the season started. 1st Burnley; 2nd WBA; 3rd Norwich. Let's see if I'm right.

Quicknick

Thanks for the photo. Looks about 1,600.

Steward told me 1400 but I don't know if they'd taken in to account the number of tickets that had been issued twice!!
Disgraceful how away tickets are dealt with currently

It looked a lot more than 1,400 on telly. What do you think?

Quicknick

It looked impressive on the telly. How many were there?

I’m going to predict that after the World Cup he’s going to get a lot better. Understandable from him if his heads currently all on playing for Wales at the WC.

Not understandable at all. He's paid a lot of money to do a job for us. I am not being cricial of his performance last night.

Quicknick

And it'll be even harder for us to compete should the biggest clubs disappear. They are the ones that bring in the big TV deals that we've benefited enormously from over the last few years. It's allowed us to build a brand new training ground and redevelop Turf Moor. Should that disappear we'll hav...

Quicknick

I like it better than the home kit, to be honest.

Quicknick

He seems so keen to be here and there is an option to buy. You'd imagine if things go well, he'll want to stay. He seems very well-balanced.

Quicknick

Really impressive window. Disappointed about the Swansea lad, though. VK obviously really wanted him. Next window?

Quicknick

I was just about to say that as much as I want a fast striker, I think a dominant cenre half is more important, especially taking into account the abundance of attacking talent we have. I hope Beyer is good.

So sounds like the valuation of £9 Million is acceptable just the structuring of the deal Swansea don't like.

It isn't finished. Just a guess.

Quicknick

Very good Blackburn following, considering they'd just lost three in succession.

Didn't realise he was fast, that takes some doing with tiny tiny legs , if he's got pace then your right he'd fit in with this set up

His legs aren't tiny. His neck is virtually non-existent. Add two inches there and he's 5'9''. Not so short.
