Seems the clown who got so much wrong in our game v Forest was at it again yesterday. But this time it involves 2 bigger clubs so you can bet something will be done.

Went to the 1989 FA Cup game there in a Transit van with 10 others. We got there just after kick off and after the police took a look in the van, which was a cross between a mobile off licence and a bottle bank, were herded back into the van courtesy of a large police dog and escorted back out of to...

Newcastle fan here; There's 100+ within walking distance of the stadium. Mile Castle is good for big groups You could get a crawl going if you try Town Wall, The Forth, Tilleys, Rosies, obviously the Strawberry, (but you'd have to get there early). Anyone needing restaurant recommendations let me k...

You see, I can’t recall many, if any folk saying he’s a bad manager. A tactically limited manager who did a good job with us but had ran his course yes, bad, no. There are plenty that are mature enough to view his tenure in that manner. Tactically limited? Or smart enough to adapt his tactics to su...

Scored from close to the touchline in front of The Longside in the 5-0 FA Cup second replay victory over Scunthorpe in 1989. I remember going to the original tie in a Ford Transit van with about 10 lads, arriving after kick off (which i think was 11am) with a van full of empties and beer for the jou...

Last time we played Newcastle in the second tier was 1983

And it was a Saturday game. Won 1-0 with a Terry Donovan goal. Keegan Waddle and McDermott all played for Newcastle and i seemed to remember Micky Phelan having a great game against Keegan.

Best keeper and best right back I have seen at Burnley. Though i will qualify that comment in that I wouldn't want Nick Pope in goal playing the Kompany way. But he was an ideal keeper for the way we set up and played under Sean Dyche

Herts Clarets

First 20 minutes the out ball to Brownhill on the left stifled any forward momentum as he invariably played either inside or back to Taylor. Once he moved more central we looked a lot more balanced and started to dominate possession.

When you are looking for some good news to brighten the evening, this is it. Right here. And I hope his ending was agonising, prolonged, undignified and humiliating. The least that he deserved.

Generous JD. Can we have a Jones scale? Starting at the negative and to a maximum of zeroes all round if he has the game of his life. The most incompetent official we have had the misfortune to experience for many a year.

Thankfully the TOC had already priced me out of using a train to travel to Newcastle, so I had already chosen to drive up there at about a third of the cost of 2 train tickets.

Is he? Must be many years younger then. I worked with him for a short time at the Turf when Basil was a director.

Just checked and Basil was admitted as a solicitor in 1967, Nick qualified in 1998. That's a hell of a gap for brothers.

The Centre spot 1981(?) Anyway it was the Q&A John Bond did when he first arrived. Two pints of Thwaites and a gallon of misplaced hope.

Was 1983 when Bond arrived. I also had the gallon of misplaced hope, especially after Reeves was injured

You say we had a good balance around 17/18. But we stood still after that and never pushed on. Ultimately getting relegated.

It’s all well and good being ‘cash healthy’ but there was a flip side to that which was to the detriment of the squad in the end and ironically resulted in the relegation. Also it depends what you are defining as cash healthy? There’s lots of argument in the financial/business world that having a l...

I think that's fair. Blatherwick went on to play for Chesterfield at a decent level (League 1?) for about another 10 years I think

Just checked - he played 223 games for Chesterfield after leaving Burnley.

Great, a referee who can't get a decision right when he has countless different camera angles and slow motion replays to watch.

I got back to The Stork pub in Read that day after the match to see Blatherwick sat at the bar with a friend who lived in the village………… Said he’d never experienced anything like it as a pro footballer being told to get changed, leave and never play for this club again………(in slightly more dramatic...

No way do they deduct points from Everton. If it was a smaller club then it would be a different story. Happy to revisit this is they do receive a points deduction in October.....

Another shocker he had was at Grimsby in 2002, when Gascoigne played. Well i say played, was on the pitch in a Burnley shirt.
