Clarets quiz question
Had to pinch this from Dave Roberts twitter account. I’m not sure if he posts on here but his Clarets knowledge is up with the best. I’ll not link it as the answers are already up. No cheating.

Today's challenge is to name the other 7⃣ teams Burnley have failed to beat away in the league

Don’t remember us ever winning at Reading (Assuming play-offs don’t count)?

Re: Clarets quiz question
I think I saw us win away at Maidstone. 2-1 rings a bell. In our promotion winning season with Conroy etc or maybe the season before ?
I might be wrong....I’ve seen us lose away a lot more in those lower divisions.
I didn’t think we ever won at Scarborough - I thought we lost 3 or 4 games there and I went to at least 3 of them !
Edit - Just seen your post CT. I didn’t go to that game !

Re: Clarets quiz question
Off the top of my head, can't think of any more so the seventh is probably one from years ago.

Re: Clarets quiz question
On the balance of probabilities, I’d say it was when we were in the Second Division in the spell before 1913. More clubs existed, so more of a chance for one to have been in the league for just one season. Middlesbrough Ironopolis?

Re: Clarets quiz question
Not Liverpool, I' ve seen us win there win an Ian Brennan screamer.
The supporters of the club in question ( I don't think it exists now ) probably thought they were too posh to be scousers.

Re: Clarets quiz question
They never got into the 2nd Division though. And this is supposed to be a team we haven’t beaten in the league.

Dazzler comes through, although CT had sat on it for a spell.
Daves’ answers from twitter and thanks to him again.

Re: Clarets quiz question
Off topic but saw one of my best gigs at New Brighton.
Outside gig in a big top in the middle of summer 2003 with Coral and Libertines supported by the Thrills, The Bee's and The Basement with the up and coming Zutons opening proceedings.
Was a good time for music and that was one hell of a day/night
