My all time hero tragic his footballing career ended so soon I'll always remember when he and his brother Bobby who then played for Stoke City were made captains for the night RIP Willie.

It's nothing to do with criticising players. It's OK to say you don't rate a player but some of the comments on here about Jay Rod are a disgrace tbh. If we can't support our own then who can we support? He's everything most clubs want in a player who has grown up in the town, played for England an...

Just read it's at a nursery and a child is dead and a description of the attacker but I won't mention it on here it's sad but all too often.

If there’s one thing that highlights how out of touch the old men of uptheclarets are, it’s when they say Weghorst isn’t good enough for Burnley
I don't know who said he isn't good enough, he's more than good enough, I think contract finances might be the defining factor.

Do we buy a sympathetic Toblerone ?

2 - 1 Dutch lads I like it

LordBob

I'd rather play the Dutch the Turkish players are a bit tasty but the main reason I'd rather play the Dutch is the brain dead Turkish crowd boo and whistle whenever Turkey don't have the ball and there are 15 million Turks in Germany, anyway Nederlands just equalised.

LordBob

Personally I would be very happy to see David Moyes take the position but whether or not he would take the job is the big question. A lot of excellent posts debating the why's and wherefores but sometimes the challenge and the kudos that goes with possible success might be too much to ignore.

Although we never had water penetrating the brickwork the bricks were terrible, flaking and pointing falling out possibly the worst brick ever made. We decided to have a 'K' rend it's worked the shoddy bricks are sealed and the house looks good the contractor said he expected others would follow sui...

Read anything by Peter Townsend (not the musician) then decide if this is a good thing.

LordBob

Interesting what VK had to say about the Dalek injury 'the good thing he feels pain because when everything is torn off the bone you don't feel anything' well one way of looking at it.

LordBob

Brilliant .... I hate penalty shoot outs UTC !

LordBob

Can we score penalties??

LordBob

I understand Harrogate have fielded a young third level side they believe the league is more important I also hear all horses in the area have been securely locked away.

LordBob

A great read I remember it well a couple of weeks before my 20th birthday a lot of water has flowed under the claret bridge since then

First goal and a win in our league last season... you never know

Guddy Turf goals are like buses you wait 2 years for 1 then 2 come in one night.

I'd like to see Obefemi given 15 minutes then hear a rendition of Happy Birthday dear Vincent !!

Do you remember when we signed him and Granada Reports kept showing the
fantastic 30 yard stunner, can't remember who he scored against.

LordBob

Football ... oh football makes you laugh it makes you cry, tears of joy tears of misery I walked from Burnley to Haslingden when Eintracht Frankfurt put us out of the Inter Cities Fairs cup, I was a kid who didn't want the adults to see me crying on the bus. The orient game then One Night in York 2 ...

In regards to the penalty I refer you to Newton’s third law (look it up) Cullen did not move towards their player, their player clipped Cullens knee and as a result tripped himself up.

Is that Keith Newtons 3rd law, never understood his first 2

LordBob

Question to all of you knowledgeable people ; Has the Spurs VK talk upset 1 or 2 players and is it possible there might be an Etihad hangover ?

LordBob

Think this was the game where we were 0-1 down then Frank Casper got sent off for thumping Francis Burns. Down to 10 men and we went on to win the game. [/was only talking about this game at the weekend Francis Burns had been hacking Frank all of the game so Frank jabbed him as Burns was just getti...

Like when we beat Liverpool 2-0 and when you looked at the stats you would't have believed it, that's footy and we love it !!

This is one of them 1-0 defeats where nothing goes for us isn’t it It could be I'm not there tonight had pain relief injections this morning told not to drive for 48 hours and it's a long round trip but if Watford and the Blades get the double on us and we go to the prem 17 points clear does it mat...

Well, seeing as I’m 44 and I remember that all too well, I think you may be wrong on not remembering! 14 years old
I think at the time!

I'm sorry lets try to forget it days like that shouldn't happen to a young man/ UTC

LordBob

I'm 44 years old. I've never seen Burnley play so well. Muric however is possibly the worst keeper i can remember. Can you think of worse? He terrifies me on corners and crosses too. At 44 years old you won't (and you are lucky) remember Mark Kendal and our game at Bloomfield Rd was abysmal we conc...

Hi mdd2 I had similar issues as yourself I to opted for surgery 12 years ago Mr Roberts at Preston. The outcome was good pain gone I still have a weak left leg (cycling helps a lot) but I avoid too many steps, hope you're still well.

I think VK is going to see what a canny experienced operator Ash the Bash really is, young players need a guy like him in there with them.

At halftime in the City v Chelsea tie the draw for the 4th round was shown and we were not in it. We were the 6th ball out away to Ipswich all of the other ties were in order but our tie wasn't even there, buy a license I don't think so.

Mine was November 1966. Division 1 game, Sunderland v Burnley at Roker Park. I was 16 and got the Shara ( coach!) Pick up from Rawtenstall about 7am. Pick ups on the way, bad roads, no m'ways, arrived late, missed kick off by 15 mins. Was an avid collector of match day programs then Was that Ellen ...

This is a match I'll never forget and it has little to do with football. I was scheduled to work at the Pfizer plant in Cork so I drove down the coast road, no Irish motorways then, so I might be able to pick up English radio stations and keep a check on the game. After going through the town of Gor...

I think Glenn Little summed it up perfectly on lancs, not a classic but a huge learning game and a precious 3 points.

Graham Beecroft is at the Turf today for Talksport and he's glowing about our wide men he also said " I've seen every championship side so for this season and this Burnley side is without doubt the best side I've seen "

We look so much better balanced with this slight formation tweak & Vitinho at right back.

Attacking down both flanks with options inside or outside, beautiful to see!

2 electric flanks just like Kindon and Thomas c'mon you Clarets
