I tried to purchase two tickets for the Derby game tonight and was asked for a member number? Do you have to be a member of the club or a previous season ticket holder to buy any tickets?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Not quite, we lost it because we cocked up.

Spot on as usual Tony, it was mainly down to staffing levels and mismanagement on the part of Paul Jenkins, as you say would not have happened under John Pepper who had previously worked as an fa assessor himself so knew what was expected.

Does anyone on here know what channels you can get efl matches in the USA . We will be using a fire stick so any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

They are probably waiting till then just noticed other clubs showing their respect today,

Blondeclaret

Didn’t see the start of the game today was late switching on but was wondering if we had the usual Last Post and poppy wreaths prior to kick off? I could see we didn’t have poppies on our shirts. Most other clubs have done this today.

Our new Academy Manager according to Nixon.

The best appointment Burnley have made in the Academy for many many years, at last a genuine football person with years of experience and a genuine interest in Burnley Football Club.

The Head of Academy Coaching is moving into an FA role I believe.

Think that was the previous chap about 3/4 yrs ago.

Jon did a really good job with the academy, lifting us from Cat 3 to Cat 1.

I would think it highly unlikely that the Academy Manager would have access to such information on first team players.

Yes, highly unlikely to be forwarded to him. This must be his personal opinion of players that he listed and sent.

He left a week last Friday. I was told last week that he’d resigned but it may well be he’d been given no option. I’d no idea why until today when I was directed to a post on here about it.

I knew about others in a similar situation.

The thing that riled me was the comparison of Formula 1 to Formula 2, completely ignoring the last 7 years where we were competitive with the “Formula 1” clubs..

I agree.

He seems overly reliant on analytics, jumping too quickly to conclusions based s...

Thanks

I don't think I realised how nuts the Gibson scenario was at the time.

They put a plaque on the house where Ian McKellen was born but he said they’d put it on the wrong house.

Just looked and he seems to have been removed from the club's first team staff list, as has Piet Cremers too. Only Craig Bellamy, Michael Jackson and Eliot Tybebo remain on there now.

No mention of the new bloke Jensen?

The cost of this is a drop in the ocean compared to player wages. I'd be more worried about the players on upwards of £30k a week and not even getting in the side.

It seems he has a new role every 6 to 8 months - some may think Jenkins has more lives than Russell Ball and both of them more than a cat given how quickly so many others move/are moved on

Think it helps when you’re family who are restaurant owners have invested in the club

Yes Francis largely replaced Hughes- he is new in post. Pinto is presumably a new appointment and I don't know much about it.
