Just had a look at our 1st away game followings in the Prem on a Saturday

Swansea 994
Chelsea 1473
Chelsea 1440
Arsenal 1372
Liverpool 1526

That doesn’t really mean anything though if we don’t know what allocation we took or could have taken for those games

Hahaha I think this is actually the way forward.

Brilliant

Could you do that each evening around 9pm and I’ll come back then for the summary?

Had a week in Zante with some mates in June

Mrs W is going to Tenerife in October then we’re off to Australia in November for 3 weeks, to visit her sister

wilks_bfc

On the flip side of all this, I pay for any prescriptions I need, but mrs_w is exempt. The last time I needed to collect in for myself, the pharmacy handed it over then walked away before I paid. I called them back to say “I need to pay” and they replied, no you don’t you have an exemption card. “No...

She's no better than Lionel Richie never mind Lionel Messi

Not my statement, just something I saw posted earlier

wilks_bfc

Probably some of the worst penalties I’ve ever witnessed, so soft the keeper could re-adjust to save most of them (from both sides). Special word for Lauren James - I’ve watched about 20 of her matches now, not a huge number I confess, and I can’t recall her ever impressing me. Isn’t she meant to b...

wilks_bfc

These penalties are shocking

Lauren James best footballer in the world

I think that’s the second one this week

It’s the same one

Its one of those accounts just pickup and recycle what’s been posted elsewhere without acknowledging the original

wilks_bfc

The original point was that it had 'gone quiet' - i'm not suggesting things aren't happening - i'm speculating we won't hear about them till all those away return - hence why its quiet 2 of our main signings have come out of nowhere with nothing being said about them until a few hours before confir...

Did Bambo actually sign for us in the Heath era?

wilks_bfc

I can see both side of the discussion here The only way points are worth anything is if you are a STH, so if you are already a STH then you wouldn’t need to purchase a ticket for home games. However, to purchase a home ticket you need a Clarets number and you may in future get a STH and I can’t thin...

I think this is the first properly professional interviewer the clubs had since I started watching in 2003. Only taken them 22 years to find someone good.

He’s got a good voice for “cricket” if that makes any sense

wilks_bfc

What kind of statement is that ? Regardless of what ? They have just said ‘if the ticket they have listed is purchased” !! So either they have missed out ‘not’ before purchased or they should not include ‘regardless” at the end if somebody buying your ticket is needed to gain the 5 points. It makes...

Seems bizarre! Extra after the allotted points already credited! Good that away points get better recognition. Assuming it’s to encourage those unable to attend to use the ticket exchange. Be interested in the t&c of that though It says “selling on the ticket exchange“. Does that mean you only get ...

As a youngster, I used to enjoy going down Gawthorpe and standing at the fence, watching the players training. Not been down since the new training ground was built, I guess one can't get any where near now? My dad use to work at Pottertons/Baxi which was/is behind Gawthorpe and many times he use t...

I’ve read plenty of out there statements on here before, but saying we don’t do proper checks and that a cause of these injuries is way up there near the top of the list

How do you know he's in America, does the picture show an identifying feature? If not, maybe he's in Toronto?

Location tagged as UCLA

And no it wasn’t a DH special

QR codes available to download for the Sunderland game now on my account, same seats & same block so it must be a load of shite about switching sides.

Unless they are numbering the blocks & seat numbers from the BL end, so you will still be sat in the “same seat”

wilks_bfc

I’ve lost 370 which sounds about right for that year

For those interested his Instagram is back active and it looks like he’s still “pre-pre-season training” in America this time

Ha, this is an Ipswich fan trolling, after our links to Cajuste.

They are signing that lad.

Fair enough

I’d not seen the source direct but had it sent to me
I’d just seen the Athletic tag in it and assumed it was from there

wilks_bfc

Could be this?

Town was absolutely buzzing yesterday, had a few bees after work and so many people were sporting the new merch, there’s people of all ages and from all over the world here for this. It’ll be excellent but there’s zero respite from the sun on site so expecting carnage later on :lol: Not going mysel...

A Dyche of 5/6yrs ago would probably keep us up for the first season

The issue would I don’t feel we would progress under him now after the first 2 years

The way of the game now is you’d need a hybrid of the two managers & styles

wilks_bfc

I’m on your side with this But just enquiring Is your seat currently by the touchline between the CFS and Longside If so why will it be different over the other side? I’m assuming because stand isn’t central to the pitch. Eg the 5th seat in from the Longside side is in line with the touchline but t...

I wonder if there is a desire to get the players lining up before the game facing Pace & Co
Could a camera gantry appear in there.

Doubt it. All the media trucks will still need to be parked behind the Longside and you wouldn’t be able to move the press box

wilks_bfc

Not much, and it's not like you're getting out of there anyway until it's clear. The original plan was apparently to take all home fans out of the cricket field, but they reconsidered and came up with this solution. Will see how it goes before I criticise It’s not about getting away, it the distanc...

You can still use the path alongside the peace garden, no longer going that way

It is when you park at the Cricket Club

Nobody can really judge any of the “new” players we had in the premier league in that season

From game 1 we were poorly set up

This all smells of “how can I subconsciously brag about being on a cruise”

wilks_bfc

I have to say this seems pretty poor from the club if true. Whilst I won't be affected I wouldn't be pleased if I was being moved from my normal (and purchased) seat to somewhere else without being informed of the decision prior to making my purchase. Seems very very dodgy. I’m assuming you are say...

It's being shown on channel 5 to.

The Chelsea game wasn’t on C5

wilks_bfc

Disagree. The old way was better with the coaches parked on Belvedere Road,the away fans go in the Cricket club anyway so this keeps them more isolated. Brunshaw road should be Burnley fans only How does this keep them more isolated? They will be mixing with fans on the Longside side, in a more con...

wilks_bfc

I’ll hold my hands up if wrong, but I really can’t see this happening. As others have said it’s would be a logistical nightmare for stewards & policing having both sets of supporters on that side of the ground. Having the away entrance on HPW allows the coaches to park there, creating a “natural bar...

The problem with that is the grassroots game as there'd need to be a load of pitches marked out a different size with different sized goals.

Yep

Sargent is a better finisher than anybody on the books. Whether he can do it in the PL I don’t know but I don’t know for any other strikers we have been linked with.

45 league goals over the last 3 seasons in 100apps is really good goal scoring record.

25 years old, reaching his peak in next year or two.
