Fair enough, was a great game, a bit nervy for me!

I went for Bristol City, glad that got a few votes, I thought that was the most comfortable game I watched all season

Full disclosure….
Still don’t believe in Scott Parker
Still miss VK
Don’t think Roberts is worthy of a place in the team

That flare that hits Oliver Sonne has got to be one of the most stupid things done by a Burnley fan, and the father said it was his son who through it, hes got to be an even bigger dick than his son. Yes it was not intended to hurt, but it could have caused a real problem given the way flames flare...

Is the Barbershop in Hitchin still going with the Burnley shirt hung up? Its still there I think, on Cambridge Rd. The Burnley top went about 10 years ago I think. There must be about 20 barbers in Hitchin which is crazy for a population of about 30,000? My days of visiting the barbers are well gon...

Surprised it’s shutting down, looks like a fantastic establishment….

I've got a few, but closest is a 15 minute walk away, other 3 are 20-25 minutes (or 35 minutes+ with the dog) 1 for talking rubbish with like minded - my favourite 1 a but more upmarket, for drinks with the good lady 1 for a drink with people barred from pub number 1 1 for sports (big screens etc) k...

If only we could go back to the days when adverts on TV were a form of high art. Like the Shake n Vac one or the R Whites lemonade one or the nuts whole hazelnut one. Young people in advertising today, a good spell in national service would sort them out. Presume this is a **** take? Its a bat ****...

The time has gone for softly softly. Round up all the crack heads and lock em up in Kierby hotel until their addiction wears off or die

Steady on, they may be scumbags but the kierby is surely punishment too far!

I think we need to help out the players, it’s a joint effort. German side Magdeburg??? Had their fans use paper arrows to point out where the goal was to help their players. If I was tech savvy enough to put a linkup I would…but I am not, sorry.

Rollercoasters died the day the Pleasure Beach pulled down the Wild Mouse :D What! the mouse has gone? makes me realise how long its been since I ventured up to Blackpool. Was once on the pleasure beach, on the rollercoaster (the one where 2 rollercoasters travelled next to each other?) with west h...

odd socks?

HitchinClaret

I think it would be massively diminished. Remember how utterly dull it was watching football on TV when fans weren't allowed to attend due to Covid restrictions? Probably not the popular opinion, but I really enjoyed it, getting to hear the players, less dodgy 'homer' refs etc. but this may have be...

Inchy?

HitchinClaret

I agree with it all, just need a bit of patience. I'd just like our 1-0 wins to be a bit prettier, a bit more exciting, a bit more 'bums off seats' type wins. Bit boring at the moment, but I'm very happy overall with the points to date, certainly better than the dread of being smashed week in week o...

My daughter does the same, whilst wearing a lanyard.
Sad to say they shouldn't be needed, but helps divert a good proportion of caveman bile coming her way, so it helps in that regard I'd say. Its more of a "stop, think" prompt I'd say.

Saying it might cost £15m for Whittaker.

A Plymouth fan said it could cost £12-£15m. If Burnley fans set our prices we could have made £3bn this season alone!

We get the Philps ones delivered to us up here (in bulk) In Porthleven you need to get there early as they can only make so many in the small bakery they have there. Magic.

Singing Aidy, Aidy Randall as he's coming up the garden path to deliver my letters never got boring.

I'm sure it did for him though.

made me laugh as I did exactly the same!

HitchinClaret

I stood (albeit with quite a few Spurs friends) in the Spurs end for the game the other month, not one bit of bother, several pubs asked me to hide my colours just in case which is fair enough. Might have been circumstance, but only seemed to get sympathy from the Spurs fans (and West Ham fans on th...

Agreed, I've had a few assistants that were previously solicitors, the job title doesn't automatically equate to common sense/intelligence. I think PPP is genuine, but doubt we'll ever find out.

Main memory from the day (aside from footy) is a girl from Accy (Alex??) getting her jugs out a lot in the pub near the ground. Nice.

HitchinClaret

Shame he has gone, had some great ideas but too stubborn, I really enjoyed the ride. Its probably best that he is replaced by someone (no matter how talented or ambitious) who takes the time to speak to fans and keeps them informed of all goings on at the club, from catering incidents to under 18s i...

I'm loving watch England cricket at the moment, despite the early alarm clock calls. Win, lose or (never) draw its a delight to watch and you can't take your eyes off it.

Kompany does do community stuff. You're selectively forgetting it. In terms of detachment I've had more conversations with ALK board members since they took over than the previous crowd (which was zero), they sloped straight into the bob Lord. Previous to that Teasdale was the last one up for a cha...

https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2024/01/30/sources-burnley-close-10m-deal-after-agreeing-four-year-contract-with-target/ Looks like it's close to a done deal.

Probably a fair comment in some respects. However, how much would the £ per person rate come down up here, if we had even a half way comparable public transport network? I’m certain that there are a hell of a lot of people in the north not using public transport because it’s: Unreliable Too costly ...

I understand Greater London gets a lot of money for infrastructure repairs/upgrades, but in terms of £'s per person using the services its probably fair?

I just had an automated call informing me that I have had a £300 payment to Amazon, and a £1000 overseas transfer. Press 1......

I'll have what you're smoking. I'd take 38 dour 0-0s all season if it means we don't have to see the absolute shambles against Brentford and Bournemouth again. "We usually score" Wow operation lower expectations as been successful I see. Bloody hell now I know we score a few I feel much better abou...

M6, M42/M40 then A34 is the only way to go I'd say. The M27 is still surprisingly busy, but easiest on a Friday if thats when you are travelling

I'm sure many of you are like me and have the message board part of the site set as your shortcut and spend most of your time on here. I just spent the last hour looking at 'the other sections' ! The Programmes, the photographs, the stats etc, it's incredible. This is undoubtedly one of the best fa...

So at the moment in this window we have recruited an overload of widemen of whom only so many can play at any one time, but still struggling to bring in a LB. We recruited a GK for £19m which wasn't a priority, still light on the CM that we needed and missed out on a number of players who it was cl...

HitchinClaret

I think the key info is "including add-ons"

It could be £10m + add ons which would be great business. We know that we are no longer mugs in this game.

HitchinClaret

I’ve just seen the whole game on Clarets+. It was an interesting well played match and I note that the trainers did not come on the field at all and there were hardly any minutes added. Well done to both teams and officials. Some points I’d like to make on the Burnley performance. I’ve seen Villa’s...

He was my first ever Burnley hero, loved him to bits. As a 10-11 year old, stood on the Bee Hole End, I always got the shivers when he started driving down the wing.

Replaced by Wout obviously

One short but enough to win the bet… Thanks lads, you never ever let us down…👍🏼 What do posters get from being antagonistic all the time?

If reports are true that Clarke is now "disgruntled" at Sunderland and is pushing for a move to the Prem himself, it maybe explains why we've not given up on it. Let's hope we can sign him and help him get regruntle himself in our squad. We need to get regruntle into the Oxford English. Clarke didn...

Wouldn’t be surprised to see us try to cash in on Costelloe like we did with jimmy dunne and Josh benson

Realistic outgoing fees
BPF - 3m
McNally - 6m
Thomas - 2m
Bastien - 1m
Churlinov- loan to buy for 3-4m
Costelloe - 1m

If we get £3m for BPF it will be the sale of the century

Why are we not signing Tella?

HitchinClaret

I'd feel a lot more comfortable with him starting our first game than if we had to go with Jay.

Sounds like a grindr competitor?

Pulisic off to AC Milan for £19m

Lost his way a bit after scoring his perfect hat-trick against us at the Turf a few years ago.

That’s quite a hit, didn’t they sign him for £50m+?
