If the club want more people on for this they need to do £5 - £10 tickets

Absolutely. £10 for adults, all under 18's £5. That should pull in a decent enough crowd.

Worrall doing very well.

Just wondering if there will be a guess the gate v derby? It's not showing yet.

TonbridgeClaret

Guess the gate should be interesting for this game. Could be anywhere between 7,000 and 12,000.

I know of two friends who are going.

My wife and I are hoping to join them, but medical appointments are making it tricky.

Much nicer place for two or three days than Huddersfield!

TonbridgeClaret

My wife and I are going for a few days in Shropshire to take in the Shrewsbury game. It doesn't sound like there will be many other Clarets there though.

You don't choose, it's done as a draw.

Ah, apologies.

I've paid. Sunderland at home.

The Claret Pals by Evan Baldock.

A crime thriller about a group of Burnley fans travelling to away games.

TonbridgeClaret

Play off finals we visited a bar after the match a stone throwaway from Wembley (don’t know the name) absolutely full of Clarets, and there was a singer/pianist trying to do his spot for the night, and he started singing Let It Be, wow totally unrehearsed and impromptu, around 30 Burnley fans stood...

Brilliant from the Oxford fans. "Jimmy Saville, he's one of your own."

Spurs fans have a new name for their manager Ange - AUSSIE IDEALESS,

Good one that Warks
I'd heard Ange IMPOSTER NO CLUE

I was hospitalised with pneumonia 5 years ago. It just floors you. It took me 8 days to get well enough to leave hospital then a couple of months to get my strength back. So maybe he’s off for the season. Same here Longsider. 12 days in hospital and 3 months recovery. It's a truly horrible conditio...

like to think this one would easily sell out

It should do. This could well be the game when Burnley either win promotion, or win the title.

Hi, Tonbridge. Just downloaded onto kindle. Interested in the previous four books. Is there an order in which it's best to read them? Good luck with everything you do with your writing. Hi Silky. Sorry for the late reply, I've only just seen this. Bang Bang was my first novel, followed by Sleeping ...

I had my first episode at age 49 and just thought I had tight chest with a cold and GO sent je to hospital where it rectified itself. Subsequent episodes saw me treated in hospital with anti arrhythmia drugs on drip which brought bpm under control and I was discharged with tablets. I stated on meds...

Hi BHC. My AF started just 4 weeks ago, and for the first few times, only when I was exercising hard. Now however, it's happening even when I'm relaxing, and the episodes are increasing. The consultant has already referred me for shocking (although I'm 68 and might be too old for the procedure), but...

Just taken my seat.

If this pitch isn’t as narrow as league rules allow, its not far off.

Apparently, 101 metres by 70.

Does anyone know when the game v Oxford will appear on Guess The Gate?

TonbridgeClaret

Over 130 tickets now available. Why on earth were they not released last week?

TonbridgeClaret

I feel for everyone up north, but it's a great draw for us in Kent. Burnley will be well supported by Southern Clarets, of which there were loads at Reading yesterday.

TonbridgeClaret

Use the Mereoak Park and Ride if driving (buses run from 13:00 to 14:45). The one recommended on the Burnley website has been closed all season because of the closure of Shinfield Park.

Me, my wife and a friend travelling down from Kent.

I've just bet £5 on 4-0 (25/1) and £5 at 5-0 (66/1).
I like giving money away to Skybet!

Just ordered three of your books on the fantastic reviews of fellow Clarets on this site. Plenty of holiday reading

Thank you Pensans!

TonbridgeClaret

Thanks Foreverly. As usual, sales were good at first,, but they've slowed down a bit now. Local pubs and podcasts have been very supportive, and the club have said they will announce the book in a home programme.

TonbridgeClaret

I hope you enjoy it longhair.

TonbridgeClaret

We're now going to the King's Arms in Sandford, a lovely pub on the banks of the River Thames. 30 minute walk to the ground.

TonbridgeClaret

Thank you turfytopper and Shire Claret, very much appreciated.

Don't forget to review on Amazon!

Whereabouts in Sussex turfy?

TonbridgeClaret

My one and only criticism! The hard 't' probably wins out over the soft 'w' but I think the majority of Clarets know it is 'will". Hi Doug. You are right, the majority know it is 'will.' The question I asked was what they sang, and people said 'til,' including two older supporters (one of them my b...

TonbridgeClaret

Enjoying the book. Being picky I know but page 205 should it be ‘will we play ….rovers’ rather than ‘till we play’? Hi Carport, thanks for reading the book. You're quite right, 'will' would be the correct word, but I did a survey at away matches of what fans actually sang, and even the two fans who...

We're parking at the ground (2,000 free spaces, with another 400 free spaces at the nearby Odeon). There's a bar where away fans are welcome at the Holiday Inn Express. It's 2-3 miles to the pubs in Oxford from the ground.

Anyone not going to Leeds who would like a copy of The Claret Pals signed, I will be doing a book signing at The Royal Dyche shortly after the game.

TonbridgeClaret

I've just spoken to the ticket office, who confirmed a sell-out. The lady said the allocation was 1,400, which I thought was small considering that on Football Ground Guide and Away Days Guide they both say the allocation for away fans can be up to 5,000 if the demand is there.

For anyone who would like their copy signed, I'm doing a book signing at The Royal Dyche shortly after the Leeds game on 14th September.

Book finished, absolutely loved it despite it not being my usual genre, it really keeps you enthralled. I've given it a 5 star Amazon review.
It could easily be adapted for a TV crime drama.

Thank you bfcjg, and thank you for the great review.

Hi TC just received the book and to my amazement the first 2 words are: Mario Spiteri - a typical Maltese surname! When England played Malta way back in the 70s, the English press was awash with comments on our players being "Maltese waiters". Hope you haven't got the cue from there :lol: Joking ap...
