Whoo hoo direct debit finally went out yesterday for the first time....only 6 months late and for the wrong amount too but I'll take it!!!
Charged me for an adult ticket but I'm a senior citizen.
I'm sure I'll get a refund if I wait long enough!!!

Yes, I've had to pay each installment by credit card up to now despite repeated promises that it was sorted.
Last time they said I had cancelled the DD!!!
I am assured that it will be taken next month now that THEY have reinstated it but they have told me that 4 times already!!!

I'm on the database/spreadsheet with hundreds of others too cos I've seen it and have been so since 5th May. Ticket office staff seem helpful also but it's obviously still a major problem.

Numerous phone calls and emails back and forth, 2 visits to the ticket office , 2 payments made manually by debit card and assurances given by the club that after a meeting with Ticketmaster last month all would be sorted by July payment. Guess what......no DD taken again this month!!! Getting beyon...

E mailed ticket office yesterday and they told me to make a manual payment to avoid unpaid charges despite the fact that the DD is set up correctly and funds are available!!! Rang this morning and I said I'll pay 2 ...

Don't think the release clause is void but it might have an expiry date I.e. 31st July. Hence VK saying if he's still here next week he'll be included

Really embarrassing... sorry. Why did we start tackling people after about 85 mins when we hadn't done it all game??? I know they are better than us but why do we drop off & let em do what they want??? Ridiculous.

A few dodgy IPTV streaming channels have been having their servers blocked since Friday followingan injunction. Iknow it shouldn`t affect this site but a coincidence nonetheless?

He also took me to my first ever away game on the charra to Bloomfield Road on Boxing Day 1970 in front of almost 29,000. 1 - 1 draw with Frank Casper scoring for us and I always thought Bob Hatton scored for them but he was playing for Carlisle at that time? Remember it well because sports report o...

My dad used to sit me on the wall of the enclosure in front of the old Brunshaw Road stand. Seem to remember you paid to get on the Bee Hole end then there was an extra turnstile in the corner where you paid a bit more to get into the enclosure o- sixpence I think pre decimalisation!!!

It's a personal opinion and I accept your right to disagree. Wood did nothing when he came on and was a risk coming back from injury . But my main point was about the midfield particularly Hendrick but all of em apart from Westwood who were awful. Surely Brownhill deserves a chance in those circumst...

Today is a perfect example of why Dyche will not get one of the top jobs in football. We're safe in the Premier League, Newcastle are sh.te and are there for the taking and we go for a spoiling 0 - 0 draw. 3 of the 4 midfielders could all have been substituted for Brownhill - no chance!!! Had to put...

Pope was the main reason we finished 7th last season. Jonathon Walters even said so on Sky last night. So the question should be Hart or Heaton for me?

ITV4 showed Hadjuk Split v Everton qualifier last season when Sigurdson scored from near the half way line.
They didn't show the home leg because they chose to show women's international rugby instead!!!

Bury away Boxing Day 99 lost 4 - 2 but we were 4 - 0 down at half time after having Steve Davies sent off early on.
Only Burnley game I have ever come off at half time. Scored twice late on. To cap it all Colin had taken over from Stan at Bury and Preece scored 2.
