Please tell me this is a wind up, seriously we didn’t pay £20 mill for Broja? I just don’t believe Parker would agree to that or am I wrong.

I doubt Parker has any input regarding players fees and contracts. The modern Coach is given a squad of players decided by a team of experts

One way to alienate the majority of Burnley fans would be to increase prices especially when you have players earning over a £million per year with little chance of them representing the first team.

Live? Alexis Sanchez. Although not necessarily a central striker I'm pretty sure he's the best player/best performance I've seen live. For Arsenal at the Turf. I can't remember if he even scored, but he was mesmeric and I'd never seen dribbling and general ball control like it. Other than the prope...

Although Jimmy Greaves would be my first choice I think Ian Rush was up there with the best.

JohnMac

I don't know but do you know if the one way system is going to be permanent? Have the club come out in a statement to say so, with no further discussion full stop The only thing I've seen is a comment from a FAB member saying FAB wanted it up for discussion at their next meeting with the board beca...

JohnMac

Football was exciting and reactionary for over a hundred years! Constant rewriting of the Laws which are both baffling and uneccesary, introducing a Video system to find the smallest of reasons to disallow a goal has ruined the excitement. That is unless you are a pundit in a TV studio, there you ca...

A business trying to maximise its own revenue by getting people to use the services it provides. Is there no end to our board’s despicable skullduggery… I don't think this change will alter the mindset of those who drink in those places I mentioned. I'm all for improvements but this is a little bit...

The days of leaving the pub 10 mins before kick off and being in your seat on time are long gone. Not a problem in the 4th Division days of course.

It's probably a Burnley thing really.

JohnMac

Leave a bit sooner? Like I said, it doesn't bother me personally, I'm in my seat long before kick off. A lot of people have had the same routine for decades, the Club know this and can use these changes to their advantage. Other Clubs have moved supporters around but without the need to implement o...

Fans who use the Cricket Club or pubs on Yorkshire Street, Plumbe Street, Oxford Road and watch from the James Hargreaves now find it difficult to leave at 10/15 minutes before kick off. In fact it's almost impossible now without missing the start. It isn't some thing that bothers me personally, I'm...

Crawford took the fight to Canelo in handy and very skillful bursts, throwing accurate and hurtful punches. Toward the end Canelo was getting more and more frustrated as he just couldn't handle him. Were they to fight again Canelo would target the head more I reckon. Great match up and brilliant fro...

A lot of these 'plastics' travel week in week out to watch their team, adopted or not. Also they will have similar loyalty schemes to get tickets for away games meaning they will have watched their club for years. I lived away from the area for over 46 years but watched games where and when I could....

Must have been a thriller

We've already conceded over a third of last season's total goals. We are doomed!

On the other hand, all games are winnable too.

So you dont know its happened? Never said it did, just that it's possible for someone to manipulate the ticket market as shown by the advert the O P put up. I too doubt anyone would pay £1500 but there is plenty money to be made for anyone wanting to exploit the ticket market. No doubt at all that ...

Is there any evidence this has happened?
If so, as a club they should cancel the scheme....but you'll need to provide evidence

Just my perspective

JohnMac

Buy 10 Memberships @ £125 and buy a match ticket with each at face value for any game.

Sell a single ticket for £1500 x 10.

Easy to see how it happens.

Best of luck to Josh for his new venture.

He just needs to ensure he goes to the correct Al Shabab!

The Dutch teams of 1974 & 1978 were amongst the best to grace any World Cup, losing consecutive finals to the Host Nation must have been awful.

5 cm cannot be considered a clear and obvious error in reality but we lack consistency because whilst this Asst flagged immediately, another would let the game progress, relying on VAR in the event of a goal.

Realistic to know our limitations on signing players and we have done very well, hopefully this beefing up of the squad in terms of physicality will allow us to compete for 90 minutes against the Clubs we realistically have a chance against.

Of course they would struggle because they attract lower quality players but if they had the finances and coverage of playing in England they would quickly pick up better quality. Don't under estimate how big these Clubs are and they would soon be up there with their huge commercial potential. I was...

For record shots of Aircraft a second hand DSLR with a zoom lens of x to 200mm is a decent starting point. 2 batteries minimum and a strap so he doesn't drop it.

When I was in Corporate at the Emirates we were told it isn't permissable to view the game from within the Lounge area or pedestrian area and the Curtains were closed to prevent this happening. I assumed this was the same everywhere but apparently not.
