Is this our 'They think its all over' moment?

Can anyone think of any other similar quotes or pieces of commentary when you think of Burnley FC?

Posted: **Thu Jun 14, 2018 9:55 pm**

If that is to be the one that takes them to Wembley, you cannot argue with that, pure...quality!

Posted: **Thu Jun 14, 2018 9:56 pm**

‘And Burnley’s first goal in the Premier League is something very, VERY special!’

Posted: **Thu Jun 14, 2018 9:57 pm**

What about the Plymouth away commentary to get to Wembley. Wasnt along the lines of Burnleys Claret & Blue Armada will set sail for Wembley. Think they used it in that crappy Panoma Joes song with the Johny Francis goals commentary

Finds Wade Elliott,he will get forward and does, leaves two in his wake. It's a terrific run by Wade Elliott.... now McCann joins the party, It's McCann for Burnley, Kilgallon with a great challenge......ELLIOTT! Oh Yes! A cracking Burnley goal

Thompson, with a touch past Duberry. Now Paterson. A lot of space for Paterson to run into - hes going to take it on. OH GOODNESS ME WHAT A GOAL FROM PATERSON!

Posted: **Thu Jun 14, 2018 10:05 pm**

A look to the heavens and that was a goal from that department!

Posted: **Thu Jun 14, 2018 10:06 pm**

Thompson takes a swing... OH THEYVE DONE IT AGAIN! Another wonder goal, and Reading are brought to their knees by Burnley!

Posted: **Thu Jun 14, 2018 10:06 pm**

Oh goodness me, what a strike from Paterson...

Brilliant

I'm sure there's some memorable quotes from the Sherpa Van northern final against preston!

“Brady’s carried a real threat since he moved out to that side and he’s picked out Chris Wood HERE, and Chris Wood, the debutant in the Premier League for Burnley has come up with an equaliser that REALLY piles on Spurs’ Wembley woes!”

"Burnley take the lead and the Burnley fans are static "

I think the commentator meant ecstatic

You know the thing about York that you didn't realise at the time?

It was the start, the comeback to where we are now.

Thinking back to my nineteen year old self then and where we are now?

Indeed. Mullen remains my favourite manager and largely thanks to starting where we are now!

Deary coming in from the right. Good over lapping. The ball comes into the area. Might come to Parkinson who gets it. Shoots! keepers not saved it! It's gone in! It's gone iiiiin! Burnley have done it!! Gary Parkinson who was playing reserve team football at the start of the season has scored for Burnley to seal promotion!!!

You have it spot on.

I will never forget that night as long as I live sat behind the Director's box in the York End.

Full of Burnley fans.

Didn't quite dream of Europe.

Totally agree with that. We turned a corner that night and although there's been loads of ups and downs since, the general trend has always been up.

Already mentioned the Clarke Carlisle commentary at Wembley, must be something from that, “What an awesome day, just look at the fans”.

“Bolton is a good job for someone else. I will stay at Burnley just as long as I’m wanted,” or do we not include lies?

There will be a whole raft of Bob Lord classics.

For me, "they've done it again!" from the marvellous commentary to that marvellous Reading game will take some beating.

This time it’s Steven Thompson, and now they can surely book those Wembley tickets

I was stood in the Bee Hole end after walking from the Longside on a match against Newcastle in the 70s boxing day
It was getting quite dull as the floodlights had not been turned on
This bloke cries out "Miller you leper get ten bob in that meter"
Dont know to this day why it was anything to do with Brian but quite funny at the time

Posted: **Fri Jun 15, 2018 12:21 pm**

Ah York away on that unforgettable night

Posted: **Fri Jun 15, 2018 12:59 pm**

“We had no celebration,” Grewcock recalls. “We went to the players’ lounge, had a couple of beers, and everyone dispersed and did their own thing, I went out for a meal with friends. It was just a sense of relief. The buildup was horrible, not a pleasant situation to be in, I feel for every team now that’s in that position.”

"Pulled back to Pavlyuchenko.... Roman Pavlyuchenko surely gets the goal to break Burnley's hearts"
