There can only be one who wins this. The worst player ever to play for us (in my opinion).

Mark Caughey 8 appearances in 1987, he wasn't fit enough and was terrible

Tony Hancock was worse !

Anthony Shandran
Brad Maylett
Earl Davis
Jason Hardy

After one over of the Lancs reply, Phil Salt’s bat has failed at the width test. Not sure what happens here.

I think that was Chester away in the cup. Mullen was the manager and was being interviewed when Inchy scored a cracker from outside the box.

It's a while ago, so I could be wrong.

Adrian Heath definitely did an interview from the sidelines. It was against Bury who were managed by Stan.

I remember it well, think i was in a santa suit

Loads went on dressed as Santa that day. It’s a game I’ve searched many times on you tube for but have never found any highlights

Pretty sure it was out first ever win against a premier league team

Shappie

Lancs T20 kit is smart

Apparently, they only got it at 4 o’clock this afternoon. The match started at 6:30!

Shappie

Im tempted by Sunderland at home, think those double saves were significant. A real season turner. I’d vote for those saves as the best “ moment “ of the season - So many up and down emotions in such a short space of time. But the overall performance that day wasn’t great Sheff Utd gets my vote for...

Liam Robinson?

Shappie

Still 6 seconds. It’s probably the most cut and dry of all the football laws as it isn’t open to any interpretation annd therefore it’s the easiest to enforce but it never is. How can you trust any referee’s competence when they can’t apply the simplest law there is? Not 100% sure but I thought the...

How do you rate them?

If we play out another nil nil on Tuesday i think the crowd might start to turn a bit.

They already have

Shappie

Call me old fashioned, but I’d love to see us put the ball in behind, get them facing their own goal, put them under pressure and see what happens

When we beat them in the Playoffs someone was stabbed in the Mayflower pub about 10mins after Burnley fans left.Plymouth is a fighting town no matter how pretty it appears.

Always has been mate. It was like Beirut on a Saturday night in the late 90’s

Shappie

That’s good news from a claret point of view TFC. Still a shocking thing to happen though

Shappie

Being reported on local news.

Hoping it’s nothing to do with us

Ah, I didn't realise, thanks Peter, will contact the club tomorrow and see if they are going to apply for more.

Would you mind letting us know on here what they say please?

Shappie

Had this game sold out or will tickets become available again next week ?

No option to buy at the moment

Agree, Kevin Ball's against Blackburn was just clumsy if you ask me, a yellow at worst.

Beat me to it

That was my initial thought.

Another Q was Wigan Athletic on the same site and what about Charlton, which returned years later and built in part of their old vast space?

Yes and I guess Spurs would count as the same

Put them down as a 1.5!!

Shappie

Pretty sure he is still an Everton player out on loan but he has just tweeted something like

“ if ever I feel disappointed, I just look at the Everton score and smile “

Shappie

I think it should be 1 as it’s still in the same place

Places like Reading who actually moved sites I’d count as 2

HI Shappie Great response - i've been looking at this exact trade myself I take it you do nights at college? Burnley? Was looking online trying to guage costings, but it doesnt say I live in Devon mate! I do one day a week at college. 9am - 7pm. I think the cost is about £1500 for the first year an...

Good thread this and one of particular interest to me. I worked as a manager / Accountant / for a civil engineering firm for 20 years until two years ago.

Never understood why when a corner comes in our forwards are up and around the keeper, in other words they have to jump from almost a standing position. When you have some height with Esteve, Hountondji, Lauren, why aren’t we trying some of them to go further back and come running in to meet the cr...

I’ve got a spare adult ticket, can meet at the ground.

Hi mate, thanks for replying but he’s got his own sorted!

Shappie

Thanks jacko I’ll see you there

Shappie

My son‘s football match has been called off this morning, so he is going to come with me to Bristol. Is anybody going who has a spare ticket please?

Thanks in advance

Shappie

There is a YouTube video filmed from behind the goal.

As Chris Eagles takes the first shot and is saved, there is a split second of total silence before the euphoria of Ade’s equaliser on the rebound.

The Vine.

Last time we played them on a weekend I had a curry pre and post match.

That’s the one. The Vine

Shappie

Any pubs for away fans near? I remember going a few years ago and a pub was serving curries out the back (mixed home and away fans) but can’t remember the name of it

Didn’t he break his ankle/leg in one of his first games for us?
Don’t think he ever returned to that fitness/potential after that

Don’t remember that to be honest

Shappie

I did that Spurs one and then Watford a week or so later which got called off for Covid

1200 miles driven. Zero football seen !

He did, but mark ford had played for England u21 and he was just as shite

I can still picture Steve Morgan looking completely lost (not the only one that night) in that 6.0 home defeat by City. He was dreadful for us.

Never mind Man City. He looked lost in the pre season friendly at Elmore

Exactly the same reaction as me!!

Shappie

Very frustrating, but this team will be okay. I would’ve settled for a point this morning.

Shappie

3 down in 35 minutes. Can’t see this one last very long either

I can vaguely remember us in a yellow away kit in the 80’s with the crowd singing “ it’s just like watching Brazil”

Now, 40 odd years later, it actually is!!

How could we forget Kyle Lafferty?

Didn't he talk to the press about how the BFC fans didnt like him, to engineer a move to Celtic? Then we used the from him money (and some money we didnt have) to get promoted to the PL.

Lafferty was my first thought when I saw the title thread

Shappie

How many Lancs fans will go to hove do you think? I’m definitely considering it

Strange question. I'm sure there's been another horse called Up The Clarets. Are racehorse names not under some type of copyright arrangement.

They are present at the Arsenal v Man United final in 1979, but missing in 1980. That's not definitive, there may have been a Wembley ground-staff member in later years who said ....

Who remembers flags on the half way line?

Set about 2/3 yards off the touchline. I can’t remember when they were last used.
