I remember him and Dobson coming to BGS in the early 70s and giving a talk and then fielding questions from awe struck boys.

Both wonderful guys to take time out to do that.

In the early 70s (maybe 71) Dobo and Bumble came to Burnley Grammar and gave a talk followed by a Q and A to an audience of very awe struck boys. It was quite noticeable that although we were also big on cricket at the school that Dobo was asked the most questions. He was an absolute star that eveni...

With reference to current debt.
Aren’t we expecting £47.6 million in first year parachute payment to somewhat mitigate any forced player sales?

Supported the Clarets since the 60’s and like most have experienced the lowest lows and although if too few some highs. It goes with the territory of supporting a small town club. Today’s relegation is par for the course. Now if you’re Vincent Kompany and used to being a serial winner, including las...

All the above show that the results are garbage.

I mean every test should show our African heritage.

An absolute Rolls Royce of a CH.

Sheer brilliance

Thanks Tony for all your efforts this glorious season. Your reports are a great read especially for us exiles.

Number 9 for me too!

I was 15 years old in 1973 and remember that promotion season so well, stood on the Longside in my Oxfords bags, Brutus penny round collar shirt, red socks and black brogues.

I must have looked a right prat, come to think of it now!

Just shown on the local news here in the East, Alastair Campbell and Ed Balls arriving at Carrow Road for the match yesterday on a tandem. Looking at their clothing (especially Balls) they could have only cycled from Morrisons which adjoins Carrow Road. Absolute tokenism! I thought the whole concept...

Another vote for County Hall car park.
10 minute walk to the ground and less than a mile from the A47 for a quick getaway after the match.

In 2007 my son was at Sheffield Uni and worked as a steward at Utd and Wednesday on match days. During that time FIFA recognising Sheffield FC as the oldest cub in the world (founded 1857) organised a game between Sheffield FC and a FIFA 11 for their 150 year anniversary. Pele was guest of honour an...

Without Sean’s vision and business acumen probably Barnfield would not have been built to anywhere near the standard it is.

The training facilities are a huge asset for the club and also in attracting prospective talent. This cannot be underestimated in my opinion.

Thanks Sean

More importantly, the whole 90 minutes entertainment needs addressing too.

Dyche continues to stay loyal to the same old 4 strikers who are totally out of form.

Why not give some of the U23s strikers a go. It surely can’t be worse! It’s frustrating that Dyche appears to come across as stubborn.

Re-signing Lennon was diabolical imo.

Give youth a chance Sean.

No ctrl-alt-del keys.

Yes the 1970 World Cup was probably the best of Brazil as a team. The way they destroyed Italy was an absolute joy to watch. As far as England throwing away a two goal lead, it is generally accepted that Sir Alf made a tactical error in taking Bobby Charlton off in order to rest him for the next gam...

After being in a bar in Aberdeen for a Scotland v England qualifier which started off as friendly banter. Scholes scored and it turned to pure hatred for us and the English. We left early to save our skins. Absolute tossers!

So it’s #5 for me.

If Tarky does go to the Foxes, I’d be more than interested in seeing Barnes go up against him for 30 minutes or so.

Hilda Baker comedy and acting genius.

We should have tried to prise Cantwell away from them on their relegation. Perfect, young dynamic central midfielder. Just what we need right now.

On match days, it’s a ritual for me to kick my underpants into the laundry basket at the first attempt from the landing carpet. Hitting the basket or hanging on the rim doesn’t count as they have to go straight in. My current strike rate is around 1 in 4. I’m stepping up the training in an effort to...

Football season just ended and another political thread started.

You are driving people away from this Clarets message board.

I hardly log in now and I’m sure many others are of the same ilk.

Dyche is a different class and comes across as a deep thinker. You would expect him to flourish in any high powered organisation.

We were incredibly lucky or astute when we appointed him as our manager.

Long may it continue.

Wonderful footballer.

I was 9 at the time and my best mate Ian ask me if I wanted to go with him to see Dr Who at the pictures.

Luckily I said no and watched the match on the TV with my dad. Thank god I did as it’ll probably only be the one time we win it in my lifetime.

Can remember when Howe couldn’t attend the game as he’d gone down south as his mother had just died. Fair enough.

But we then had a minutes silence to honour his mother before kickoff.

Ridiculous. We didn’t know if she was even a Claret for goodness sake.

I thought Sean on SKY had a very clever "subtle" dig at Pickford in praising Pope in doing the basics well.
