Is devious the right word even? Or is everything above board with this deal if it goes through? Under UK rules if an U23 player out of contract is transferred, then the club, in this case Burnley, I understand are entitled to a transfer fee. If the two clubs cannot agree a fee it goes to a tribunal ...

Anyone with a pond and fish.
Have you seen them yet after their winter slumbers.
We have seen two tiny baby ones... but not one of the regulars.

I read that the current flu vaccine covers three strains... but not the one that is laying people out.

Recovering from severe Influenza. Put me in hospital for nearly a week.
Doc said it would be a month to get fully over it.
He ain't wrong. It wiped me out.

Rodleydave

Thanks very much everyone.
Shop missing a trick then... claret and blue walking sticks.

Rodleydave

I now need to use a walking stick.
I will need it to get to my seat on Saturday.
Are there other users on herewith walking sticks and are they permissible
or taken off you by stewards.
I seem to remember some time ago someone had their umbrella taken off them.

Dobo will be at Colne bookshop this Saturday signing his new book. 11 til 1.
and
At Burnley library Saturday 21st, 11 til 2.

Hmmm... teeth-gritting in a published book when you find them... I speek from psrernal epxerience.

Just an update to say that it goes from strength to strength. People are still donating items. Have YOU got anything. Just drop it in. Old football magazines, annuals, photographs, souvenir edition newspapers, scrapbooks (there are some beauties there) you name it, we collect it. I never knew there ...

Who funds all this... where do all these teams stay?
Must cost a bomb.
Impressive list of teams.

And was he part of the huge mural that was painted along Harry Potts way... before it was obliterated with black paint.

Was there one of Willie Irvine.

As the diary writer for the London Clarets mag, all I can say is Samuel Pepys would struggle to keep up with things. Anyone who has a full set of the mags that go back many years has a superb history of the club. Ten years from now we can read them and shake our heads in disbelief at what is going o...

Bought one just to see who was still here, who was new, and who had gone.
Looked at it and thought cheap and not even cheerful. Cost cutting at its best.

If you have the Clive book you really need the Barry K one as well. Barry book is a personal story, Clive's is behind the scenes. Barry book worth the price for the stories of Maxwell and Murdoch. Clive lifts the lid on a few things. Both in club shop might even be reduced price as they are trying t...

Got a fantastically stylish new summer shirt with matching shorts.
Should be a wow on the Riviera or walking through Burnley.

Rodleydave

Memories of that Everton day remain vivid because of the effect on Mrs T and daughter Victoria who were two of many who fled downstairs to escape the mayhem. The placing of these fans in the Upper JH by the club was utterly fatuous. For one Burnley guy to be singled out and banned is appalling. Also...

new one signed up

At last someone mentioned Tella.
This season we have lacked all the pace we had last season.
We had pace all over the pitch.
This season just Koleosho until his injury so that was short-lived.
Odebert, just glimpses.

Rodleydave

Farewell until next season.
This season most Saturdays it has been the best part of the day, meal with chums on the way home.
Have tried others once or twice but always back to the KD.
Great food.

In a word NO

We get wet even as far back as row 14 int upper James H.

Renewed 4 tickets overall increase app 17%.
All these increases will come back to bite our smiling illustrious owners on the backside next season if we languish mid table or below.
People will vote with their feet as they always have.

Ian Mcl I think my name is mud anyway after the stink I kicked up, and the emails I sent to all the hierarchy, re the Everton fans in the upper JH and the chaos they caused. These are the people who suggested they would understand if I chose not to attend future games. I replied that we would be her...

Rodleydave

Sent four separate emails to four different people last week, to ask about Early Bird renewals. Pace, Ball, Hamish Wilson Director of Strategy I believe, and Jack Ormesher the SLO. Not one has replied with even a courtesy acknowledgement. Can't say I'm surprised. Wouldn't surprise me if there is no ...

Rodleydave

Good point Castro. From the injury angle you couldn't put them in a worse place than right at the top of the Upper JH. Several were forcibly dragged down the steps from top to bottom. A few home fans sitting in the end seats gave them an extra thwack. The last one to be dragged out was given an extr...

Rodleydave

I contacted Pace and Ball and the reply came from the SLO whoever that is. Described in detail the truly frightening Everton mayhem which was just a few rows behind us. Informed them of the number of home supporters who took shelter in the concourse... where in fact it continued. Told them of the nu...

Big question is how many will be in the JH Upper with seats that come with the Jimmy Mac Corporate package.

Rodleydave

I have emailed Pace, Ball, Ramsdale and Williams. And have asked how many Liverpool fans have bought the corporate package in the Jimmy Mac. A reply... I won't put money on. If they can give a number and still propose to put them in the JHU then that is bad enough. If they don't know how many... tha...

One please

Rodleydave

Dear Mr Pace... I am one of the Everton fans who bought a corporate ticket that included a seat in the James Hargreaves Upper Stand. I paid some ridiculous high price for this. By putting us all in a Home Stand in the way that you did surrounded by hundreds of home fans, we were placed in a dangerou...

Royboy... its when you are getting near the end of the perch and there is no-one to give it all to... decision time No-one to give my stuff to... the thought of some stranger hurling it into a skip... gave me the shivers. Or suddenly having to downsize... and nowhere to put it all... Had another box...

Various activities as well, tea coffee and biscuits.
And its warm in there.

Rodleydave

Call in downstairs at the library before the game and have a browse through the collection of Burnley memorabilia.
Collections still being accepted if unwanted. But not programmes.
Don't let your collection end up in a skip.

No calendars? Would have thought the annual and the calendar were two of the top Christmas sellers.

Rodleydave

Fits in with the we don't take on new books any more, club shop approach.
Not stocking the Sold for a Stand book has made Christmas at the Colne bookshop.
Twice sold out there and am taking more on Thursday.

Rodleydave

The Colne shop now has more copies of Sold for a Stand, and with each copy there is a free hardback Best of Burnley.
Also a great selection of children's Christmas books.

Rodleydave

Poor man's Andy Carroll... but somebody beat me to it.

Rodleydave

They were going to have flags in the window I was told.
Sales might improve after today.

Rodleydave

oh no it's not...

Rodleydave

Do these flags come on a stick or do you have to get one separately.

Rodleydave

There is a website of sorts but it takes you to his twitter page.

Rodleydave

Not sure about a bookshop website. I'll have a google and see.
There is also a VK book in the pipeline from Legends Publishing.
But doesn't include last season, unless it has been added at the last minute.
And when in Colne have a coffee at Tubbs down the hill.

Rodleydave

hardback. Club shop concentrating on flags. Their reason is books don't sell. They may have a point as hardback book prices now hit £25. What they seem not to remember is that I GAVE them dozens of copies of a couple of titles when the publisher retired and he gave me all his unsold Burnley stock. T...

This book about the Team of the 70s is not available in the club shop. They have declined to stock it. Only bookshop in the area to have it is Colne Bookshop. Currently sold out but will have more copies on Dec 14. All copies signed by Waldron Fletcher Thomson and Casper. Plus all purchasers receive...
