A few new faces for jdrobbo's list I think

Indeed…..

jdrobbo

I’ve been a teacher in Burmantofts, Leeds (edge of Harehills and in the bottom 1% for social deprivation nationwide) for 16 years this September. Firstly, I think the education system is in an absolute mess but that’s a government issue and I’m not going to go all political. I’ve had MANY days when ...

What’s Claire Judd up to these days?

jdrobbo

Goodness me, we’ve gone double Dutch…

Malcolm McLaren, anyone?

Um-Bah-Bah!

jdrobbo

MAGNIFICENT

We’re a far better side’(historically) when he has been in it.

jdrobbo

Interesting policy…blocked for a swear word (fair enough if that’s policy and no apology follows) yet time after time, BOTs are left leaving their sex services in the replies????

Mo Camara, Lee Roche and wasn't Matt O'Neill classed as pro back then?

Good shout

jdrobbo

Chaplow and McCann possibly?

If they aren’t there it might be the smallest ever number of senior players reporting in on the first day. I can only think of Cotterill’s first summer that might rival it.

That first SC was unbelievable. Didn’t we start with about five players?

Jensen
Branch
Moore
Blake
Grant

?

jdrobbo

Shudder!!!

jdrobbo

Thought so!

And then he became friends with Nello

jdrobbo

I’d add Westwood to this list. Not that popular at Villa (as a player) but found a home at Burnley.

jdrobbo

My thoughts turn to how next season’s RTR will look….very different, that’s for sure.

jdrobbo

In the unused opponents section could we attribute which competitions they have reffed us in? PL, Ch, FAC, LC? Or maybe have their first season / latest season they reffed us - example 2011 / 2021 I appreciate the hard work you put into this, I’ll understand if it’s too much to ask - but keep up th...

Lot of hard work gone into those lists so thank you.
Some frightening names though!

Thank you!

jdrobbo

Don’t know whether it’s worthy of note, but Uriah Rennie is top of the list, having reffed a defeat. Can’t remember the game, but I do remember him as a ref, and the scores are excellent. Coupled with our reputation for being a town with serious issues around race, I doubt scoring Rennie the highes...

jdrobbo

It’s surprising, isn’t it?

jdrobbo

I agree!!

Sounds good but I’d prefer not to be downwind half an hour later.

Try it and let me know!!

Kinda like this...

Yup… get your beans warming and then add everything else at the same time. Put your toast on and serve when cheese has fully melted! Amazing!!!

jdrobbo

It's taken a bit of putting together, and no doubt there are a few errors....possibly even one or two omissions (please shout out if you spot anything), but here's an all-time table for every ref to have officiated a Burnley game since August 2007. For reference, the first RTR game to feature was: B...

jdrobbo

I occasionally mix cheeses when I do curried beans.

Tin of beans (Aldi)

Handful of cheese: 50% cheddar; 25% Parmesan; 25% blue

1tbsp curry powder

Small handful sultanas

A small portion of this would accompany my death-row menu!

jdrobbo

Interesting! I was told someone popped in while his other half was at the dentist to check us out for a Burnley fans meeting. Apologies for my incorrect assumption! I’m with you now! I had spoken to you previously and a member of the group contacted me to ask which place you worked at so he could d...

jdrobbo

Absolutely bonkers that an English white ball domestic FINALS DAY coincides with an England white ball ODI. Utterly ridiculous; a farce!

jdrobbo

Not a bad day, all things considered. Got the feeling, it’s just a case of damage limitations at the moment, before we get the best part of 50% of our side back

Not I, Brewer. What's this rumour...pray tell?

Hope you're well.

Someone mentioned on here (no idea at all if it is correct I might add) that Stoke still owed us some money for Vokes so we didn't even pay 12 for him.

It was me. I stand to be corrected but I’m sure Stoke owed us for Vokes.

jdrobbo

His effort and contribution over the years, to the Supporters Groups, is much appreciated.

Sad to hear this news today.

Thanks very much and glad you were able to see the pics. Thanks for sending them over Tony.

He’s an absolute beaut, mate. I particularly liked the photo of him in his mini bantams shirt

Quite simply incredible!!!

I’ll just say, I really think that this chase, even the thought of chasing it, would not have happened, had England not opened up like they did yesterday to chase down their total. It just shows how inspiring our national team and our very best players can be.

jdrobbo

121 needed from 26 overs (4.6 per over)

jdrobbo

Lancashire are suddenly upping the run rate and potentially putting us within striking distance of having a go at this total.

jdrobbo

Luke Wells gets his century!!

102*

That’s right, you will be able to find me and my Koffee Kompany Kart, between the hours of 1 pm and 2:30 pm on matchdays.
