Music is available to everyone on demand st anytime now.

One of the reasons people cherished a particular song is because they had to listen to loads of crap on the chart show first.

Penalty shootouts in football could be transformed to make them fairer under new plans being looked at by Uefa. The sport's European governing body is already trialling a new way for penalties to be taken in decisive shootouts. Instead of teams alternating spot-kicks, Uefa is considering a new syste...

Thanks for the positive comments, we didn't intend to go out and make anything Oscar winning or funny or anything. Its just a nice little film. We just found a the story interesting about friends having a commmon interest and keeping in touch,and we wanted to reflect on memories and growing older wi...

Stats dot tell the whole picture. For example, Burnley's goal attempts are normally very low, but stats don't consider attacking crosses. Sam Vokes not connecting with a cross is just as threatening as shot on goal in our case.

They signed one of them - or, Bradley Orr, from Bristol City.

I wouldn't want to see Rovers go bust. Some of my mates are Rovers fans, I enjoy the banter and the discussion about our respective clubs. The on-the-field stuff is great fun to watch, however the uncertainty of the clubs future isn't. I wouldn't like it to happen to me because supporting a football...

Maybe not that particular goal, but at full time I knew everything was going to be OK. And I'm a very cynical supporter at the best times. Thats my highlight of the season.

What worries me if looking at the likes of Sunderland, Bolton, Blackburn and Wigan - were all stable Premier League clubs... where will Burnley be in 10 years?

I'm sure he'll be ear-marked by our board

Its what was Haslingden FC, was used by Stand and was then abandoned circa 1999 - the shots in the credit sequence are what remains or the ground. Its quite sad really because it was a good facility.

Funny, because I thought it'll be the sort of film that'll be up your street Pstotto. Maybe if you got past the first minute you might actually get into it.

Here is a short film about an amateur football team. The only people who have seen it so far are friends connected with the team, so I thought I'd share with people on this forum who like football to see if you guys like it. Give it a watch if you have a spare 8 mins. https://vimeo.com/214922601" on...

Might be better to boo the Premier League Anthem and chant Joey's name during the handshakes.

They'll be a few footballers having a few sleepless nights over this I reckon...

18 months is a long time. Aapart from the Lincoln match, Barton has been a model professional on the field for Burnley Football Club and has been a pleasure watching him play here.

I work in video productions, imagine losing plate, or a particular lead or connector thats unique to a particular piece of equipment, or a battery. A bit of plastic costs £100's.

It was in the JML, I don't know what started the original exchange... it was just one supporter stood up and pointing fingers originally. But my main gripe is the group of supporters who it had nothing to do with, decided to get involved.

There was a moment where United fans were exposed in our block towards the end of the match. One Burnley fan had taken exception which then led a group of Burnley fans about 8 rows back to get involved. These fans are probably in their 50's and hung around the exit gate to push and kick the United f...

I agree, but this Soccer Saturday, not TalkSport.

Shouting into the camera demanding someone to be sacked isn't the job of the shows anchor, unless its Alex Jones on InfoWars.

Been an admirer of Stelling for years, but I think this was a step too far. I love the passion, the banter and everything his brings to the show, but no-one wants to see that really.

I anticipate an apology from him to be honest.

Wow, it was around the time as the Preston game, probably the same day... which seems ages ago now, but the death of Prince only seems months ago. Funny how memory plays tricks.

claptrappers_union

I think the bottom line is that everyone believes it wrong and something needs to be done, it is very bad publicity in addition to being totally wrong. While the club maybe thinking about it people are not catered for, they need to act and be seen to be doing something more than planning/talking, i...

What are you on about? He signed a contact and has honoured it. Maybe he should've shown loyalty to Manchester United and rotted in the reserves?

claptrappers_union

it's becoming the norm that players come to Burnley make a name for themselves and let their contract runs down and move on the cheap !! Maybe its a recruitment policy... Burnley are stepping stone to bigger things and maybe that how we attract the players in the first place? Its business and its a...

This might sound simple but could wheelchair users not be offered the foundation lounge in the Jimmy Mac Upper? There are car parking spaces outside and a lift to the first floor. Plus there is a disabled toilet and ten minutes before the game starts the room is empty. It's a brilliant view of the ...

I see its mainly the clubs with 'older stadiums', Burnley, Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, Watford and West Brom etc Finding a suitable place for disabled supporters with the appropriate access and facilities is challenging to accommodate, but obviously it's a situation that needs attention and rectify...

Rovers will escape, the teams above them ware worse than them. Forest and Brum are shocking.

If we stay in the league for more than two seasons we won't be regarded at all, we will be filed under the likes of Stoke, West Brom and Watford. Just a meaningless existence

They are all used in some fashion - the PA room by the Longside, the auditorium is the control room for the perimeter advertising, then its the Foundation Lounge used for pre-match, corporate facilities behind the spongy blue seats in the middle area and a TV studio at the Bob Lord side. During the ...

I disagree with Claptrapper completely, look at Palace and Highbury and the vile corporate vandalism of their stadiums and who is this corporate in Burnley, the suicide squad and Stoops Estate birthday bashes? Unfortunately, if you want to see the Burnley compete at the highest level, those are the...

We're not locking supporters out, so we don't need to worry about increasing the capacity at the moment. The club need to improve its corporate hospitality situation, which is selling out and theres some real money in that area. There isn't really room for functions in the current set up, so if ther...

I remember the website with the Prof. It was a good site. It didn't have a messageboard though. It had a chat room. That's was circa 1999-2000

Rules state - that if its a clear goal scoring opportunity, then its a red card... though it was Patrick Bamford through on goal, so a yellow is fair punishment.

When we beat Southampton we were safe. Our form will have to be LLLLLL... unlikely.

Reads more like a work experience placement or a foreign exchange program to me, rather than a trial. Doesn't look owt special from what I have seen on YouTube

Defour (for whatever reason) seems to lack any sort of pace. At one point in the 2nd half on Tuesday he tried to chase one of their players on the left hand side and within the space of 10 yards their player was 5 yards ahead of him! Must say that I've been very underwhelmed by his performances, ot...

Looks like we have got ourselves a new Alan Moore.

claptrappers_union

Like Ward, he's been a bit of an unsung hero. I think its because Burnley fans like to see our full backs have a bit of flair, players like Trippier, Camara and Mears who play an active part of an attack in going forwards. When if it bringing the ball forwards on the overlap or providing crosses. Bu...

So by my calculations, the last time you came was at the backend of that horrible winless run when we beat Plymouth Argyle 4-0. Paul McVeigh scored.

My Dad and Grandad tried taking me to the football when I was about 6, 7 or 8, to Burnley and couple of times up at Rossy Utd. Not interested at all, I was more interested in climbing the floodlights (at Dark Lane that is, not Turf Moor). It was only when I was about 10 when I took an interest.
