It’s easy. They buy for a low level game which won’t sell out, creating a Clarets Numbers. Then they’re free to buy once we’re past the loyalty point stage.
I know an Everton fan who attends this fixture in the home end every year. Good fellow, and partly supports Burnley (on Tv and happy with the results kind of way) now he lives here. He always attends with a couple of Evertonian friends in the Longside. It happens at all grounds.

Also, never said that I don't want any away supporters at the Turf. Just don't want/need more of them. Is that reply interesting/amusing enough for you?
I'm not amused.

Was plenty of empty seats in the Cricket field stand yesterday. I just don't see the argument for increasing capacity tbh. Good to see 4 of the Helmond lads stood behind us.
