I think we won 1-0 at Chesterfield with a Peter Mumby winner.

Mansfield was a bit lively!!

Remember at York getting some ear ache from some local lads who ran off when a few older Clarets turned up!

Heard someone bleating this coming off last week and a thread on here. Didn't take long did it.

This week's classic was about finishing above Arsenal.

NL Claret

Thought his first game was midweek v Bradford and he was ok, when we played Sheff U and Wolves they put him under pressure in possession and he was hopeless. Dispossessed in bad positions, after that he was probably only good when the ball wasn't moving.

NL Claret

On Saturday there was a block of seats towards the JM end of the JHL which was full about 20 minutes before KO. They looked fairly young so would guess a community initiative. CT reported Saturday was the highest home fans attendance so maybe tickets were given away as it was Southampton. It wouldn'...

NL Claret

Those 1st halves against Sheffield U and Wolves and the 2 free kicks against Cov when we missed out on the play offs by a goal are the main memories after the euphoria of him signing.

Think he had a decent debut against Bradford.

When manager at Bury he was barred from our local for throwing food at the staff.

Think he used to like a pint or too. Possibly got banned from driving too.

NL Claret

Do some we think should beat everyone at home regardless of the opposition?

Did Southampton bring a £14m player off the bench?

Did they have a few internationals? Is there budget smaller than ours?

Do they have the spine of the team out injured?

NL Claret

It's quite clear Everton are there for the taking. Will be disappointed if we don't win by 3 or 4.

Then again I think Lancaster might be right.

NL Claret

I want to see full backs bombing on, wingers on their correct wings getting to the by line pulling the ball back.

If we do this and our defence gets exposed and we get beat 3-0 I will be even more fuming.

NL Claret

If we lose or draw it will simply be not good enough for the deluded brigade. There will be the lack of patience from some in the JHU, get it forward ffs when we keep possession and then groaning if we play a long ball. Expect the usual embarrassing tirade on social media from the attention seekers....

Could have something to do with the changes to irn bru in Scotland?

Les Thompson I think, he was in the foundation bar the other week. He's an iron man now!

Philys had an awesome partnership with David Reeves........Bros!!

NL Claret

Philiskirk got booed off after scoring a hat trick v Barnet.

NL Claret

We sat in the BLS rather than stand on the Bee Hole that game, should have gone in the away section of Longside just to see what it was like on reflection.

We dished out some right hammerings on the Turf that season, dismal away from home, enjoyable season all the same.

I remember driving all the way to chesterfield on Boxing Day to park up and be turned away at the turnstiles. I’m 44 and I must have been 17 ish at the time. Self edit-just read list above, must have been New Year’s Day one, and six years out on my he at time. Funny how the grey matter starts to st...

Halifax away early 90s, Clarets went over to clear the pitch and got a free ticket I think.

Plenty in the bus depot above the away end (rolled Tarmac) chucking snowballs and singing what's it like to pay £5?

Francis scored twice.

NL Claret

Players look like Ray Deakin, Mark Monington, Steve Davis (Mk1) and Brendan O'Connell Ok yes, Deakin wearing 11 threw me and I guess Taylor left or hardly played following the Wembley season. Got Mk 1 right and thought that was Monington probably playing as a centre mid. Then again Deakin could hav...

Is this more how you remember it? Who were the opposition in this game? I'm sure that's me and my dad stood on a barrier where the terrace is elavated / large step? That was our usual spot in them days. Steve Taylor, Steve Davies and Ashley Hoskin players in the photo. Is the other one Mark Moningt...

PL is the greatest league in the world........could be a myth. As mentioned in the still in 7th thread on Sunday. There are 14 clubs who's aim is survival. Top 6 moving away from the rest, take a look at the goal differences. A poster says about Wigan fans getting bored, heard similar from Bolton an...

Burnley's pro played at Greenmount in Bolton League for 3 seasons. He was part of the treble winning side of 2011. He can score big runs and capable of taking a few wickets with his off spin. The players at Greenmount spoke very highly of him and gave a glowing reference to Burnley CC. Think it was ...

When I was 12 I watched a lot of Bury home games as my dad had stopped going to Burnley and they were doing well. Plus there was a lot of ex Clarets at Gigg Lane. Winston White was a massive crowd favourite and very entertaining to watch. Like a lot of players who joined the Clarets around that time...

ElectroClaret wrote:Gary Neville...."Some Arsenal players...absolute disgrace...walking around."

He spent the majority of the 2nd half slagging Arsenal off, as well as calling them a disgrace about 10 times he also called them pathetic. Really said what he thought and it was difficult to disagree with him.

NL Claret

Barnes got a ticking off in 1st half for next to nothing, five minutes later he was kicked in the face. Ramsey just been booked for that even though got eyes on the ball. Did Madley speak to the soton player? No.

NL Claret

Hoofball goal.

Good knowledge Steve, Leicester did win the PL in one of the greatest shocks in the history of modern day football. Since then the elite have started spending more of their huge wealth. Doubt it will happen again however some will not be happy with 7th or survival. Just not good enough. Some comment...

NL Claret

Some expectations baffle me. The PL has 14 clubs who's main aim is to survive however judging by some comments there are 13 clubs as Burnley are now in the elite 7. We missed a trick in January by not spending which would have definitely seen us finish in.........7th. Year on year it will be about g...

A range of comments from today.

"This is system is sh!t". The same system that has got us to 7th..

"Worst ball boys in the PL"

"Get him off Dyche" after Hendrick won a late corner.

"We won't win another game all season"

Another favourite against City "league 1 stuff this Burnley"

NL Claret

It looked from the foundation bar that there's was a large block of youngsters in the JHL 20 minutes before KO , probably comps/community thing.

NL Claret

Got into a great position to see the keeper outside the area and gave a...........throw in. Bottle job. Was there a foul on long for the goal? Looked more of a foul than Barnes committed at Newcastle. Also got in a good position to obstruct Westwood. Allowed soton to waste time in first half yet whe...

We must have been on the same coach! I was with my friends Adrian Beck and Julian Booth as well as my sister, Suzanne.

Bury just gifted them a 2nd. Horror show defending.

Booed off at half time. In fact when they get a corner the crowd start booing! Pretty dreadful so far. Once got my name on the leader board at the black pudding world championships. You have to put your foot on a grid and throw your black pudding at the Yorkshires. Outside the royal Oak, Ramsbottom....

Usually comes out of Danny Murphy's mouth, "a coming together" "definite contact". I don't understand this, I don't he does either.

NL Claret

Thought it was a penalty and also thought Rochdale could have had a penalty. There was enough "contact " , a coming together according to Danny Murphy. More genuine contact than the Ramsey pen perhaps going down naturally or he plays for Rochdale means it's a coming together.

NL Claret

We're a top 7 side now so we should be looking at top European players, anything else will be a step backwards however it is important not to get carried away with ourselves.

NL Claret

Possibly one of the biggest mistakes waddle made was the signings he made when he first came to the club. Players mentioned above were certainly not better than the players that we were already at the club and not in the positions that needed strengthening. Another story I heard was about Gordon Cow...

In terms of employment I was driving out of Manchester on Rochdale Rd and got stopped for a survey, it was Dave Burnley. It was early 2000s. Explained I was a claret and as I was driving off he shouted "keep the faith".

3-0

Harsh on Albion, 2 good chances to equalise and a lucky deflected pass sets up moses for the 2nd.

NL Claret

Fine margins in the Chelsea v WBA game. 2 good chances (1 a good save) for Albion and Chelsea struggling. Lucky deflected pass in for moses to make it 2-0.

NL Claret

Lee Mason on form. Missed 3 clear fouls in 10 minutes.

Potential pen and a red card.

How many have they conceded? And that's with playing 10 outfield players in their own half for most of the game?

Huddersfield threw a fair few quid at it in the summer, couldn't say if their wage bill is higher than ours or not.

Think it was rumour about Howey been waddles brother in law. Recall a post match by waddle when he slated the fans over the criticism towards Howey. Think he might have played as a forward in that game. He was poor.

NL Claret

It wasn’t so much the miss as the way he threw himself down on the ground like a big baby. Embarrassing. Watching the brief highlights on sky it sounds like he lets out a squeal as he realised he'd missed before he starts slapping the pitch. Gloves off when subbed, the polar opposite to the Burnley...

Only criticism was adding 3 minutes on to the 2nd half!
