We should move out of town to a purpose built location

I can only assume this is teasing weather than purposely getting our fan base so wrong.

Being located where we at means we handle darker times better as core fans base doesn’t need to travel.

It was a metal line in the carpet between the main room and the back part where the snooker table is. Women weren’t allowed past the line.

I seem to remember it still being in place in the early 2000’s.

Going slightly off topic, but I did an Atlantic 252 Spotify playlist for anybody bothered - 74/75 is in there lol

That’s a cracking play list.

I was watching the Antwerp episode last night and noticed one of my good mates from growing up in Padiham was in it. He was protecting the gate of the mansion in the Cotswold and told the family that Jan was leaving the property over the walkie talkie. Having looked up the info he appears in 7 epis...

Class to partner with the app where racists and worse pay to get their replies boosted.

I agree. The far left extremists have way too much to say for themselves.

Another shout here for Mobland. If you can get past the Irish accents from Brosnan and Mirren, particularly the former, then you’re in for a treat with it.

Claretforever

Almost 50,000 tickets sold between them is very impressive for tier five.

With parachute payments being four years when we first went up there, we have been in Premier League money since 2009. So, even if we come straight back down it’ll be at least 19 years of Premier League money. In the mid-2000’s I thought we’d never get there.

Claretforever

I hate VAR. it wrecks the experience for the attending fan in my opinion.

Claretforever

Yes, on the face of it, I agree it seems simple, but consider this... In March 1962, Accrington Stanley resigned from the FL after their unresolvable financial struggles and irregularities. That was just past mid-season. So their record from that uncompleted 1961/62 season was then expunged from th...

Anderson's 60th minute goal v Shrewsbury at the weekend was apparently the 600,000th goal scored in English league football since it began in 1888. Someone called Soren Elbech, known online as 17 Laws Guy, claims to have worked this out, but how he's done it I don't know. Would there be records exi...

I thought when they were all collectively shouting in the same note was weird but very loud and impressive. Not sure I would want us doing it though.

The Longside used to do something similar in the 80’s when we got a corner. Burrrrrrrrrrrrrnley

Claretforever

What dilemma? I want us to win the title, though it is out of our hands at the moment. I don’t give a crap what Blackburn do, as the other sides in the play offs are better than them so I highly doubt they’ll go up anyway. I can’t see them beating Sheffield United either to be honest, unless the Uni...

I wonder what the comparison is to a new cricket field stand that holds an additional 2000-4000. To a new stand that holds an additional 5000-10000 fans. I guess a double tier? But I wonder if the base line cost for a new stand is X let's call it 20m. Maybe a double tier costs you an additional 5m....

MONEY TALKS - Neil Diamond Money talks, But it don’t sing and dance and it don’t walk, And long as I can - have you here with me, I’d much rather be - forever in Burnley Honey’s sweet, But it ain’t nothin’ next to Turf Moor’s beat, And if you’d pardon me - I’d like to say, We’ll do okay - forever in...

I’ve long considered 25,000 to be about the right ceiling for a capacity for Burnley. Ensure there are 3,000 away tickets and it means we can get 22,000 Clarets in for the big games. I know sometimes demand would outstrip that, but it’d be fine in the main. A new Cricket Field for 5-6,000 and a back...

Claretforever

I actually don’t. I really wanted us to get promoted but I really don’t want another Premier League experience like our last two seasons up there.

Claretforever

I’ll be honest I don’t think was that many …pretty embarrassing numbers wise , There was more on at the pitch at bury on Saturday than today and I went, If it’s celebrate in the right way I don’t see a problem Every club does weather they get promoted or stay up on last day Some people are right th...

Fantastic today. Really, really good. The way he kept calm despite the amount of provocation and dirty play on him was a pleasure to watch. Long may that version of him continue.

If he stays for a few years he’ll replace Barnes as the cult hero.

Claretforever

I don’t mind it. Let people enjoy themselves for a moment. Our club only gets a small amount running on anyway because of the ground design; basically only the bottom tiers of the Longside and Jimmy Mac do it. The top tiers don’t have access and the Bob Lord is too high up and the old blokes don’t b...

I went to watch Accrington Stanley v Burscough when Accrington were en route to winning promotion from level 6 to the Conference (National League), around 2002 or 2003. 1,400 in attendance and Accrington won 4-2 from memory.

Burscough appear to have tumbled down a few levels since then.

Claretforever

These were the line ups in December.

Unreal game at Man United. What a finish.

Trump looks to be the same height as Obama in photos, who it’s claimed is 6’ 1”, so the truth will be somewhere in between, depending on heels and hair do.

Claretforever

Need to be wary do Stanley. Carlise have won 2 on the bounce and if that continues next week and Stanley lose they're only 3 points ahead with 3 games to go. Carlisle have Port Vale next, so that’ll be a tough game for them after beating two teams around them, but the game afterwards is Accrington ...

He seems a nice lad.

Our twelfth 0-0 of the season. Equalling the record held by Tranmere since the early seventies. Not great, but the result from Bramall Lane makes it easier to swallow! UTC! Yeah, I did a lot of searching a few weeks ago for that and posted on another thread. 12x 0-0’s is a stupid amount really. If ...

Lads at Sky Bar put the game on one of the big screens. They’ve got about 9 TVs in here.

Thanks again people.

Claretforever

Thanks chaps.

I think Diane’s bar is closed according to Google, so will have a wander to Sky Bar. Much appreciated.

Claretforever

I’m currently in Costa Adeje, Tenerife. Any suggests of bars that are likely to have the game on tonight?

With no Premier League games on I’d hope somewhere might have our game on, though there are a couple of Champions League games.

I sold most of my Bitcoin at around the high water mark in January (held since 2021) for a nice 50% profit. Wondering when will be the right time to hop back in. It feels like it's got further down to go yet. I agree. I’d be surprised if BTC doesn’t break below $70K and XRP to the $1.25-$1.35 area....

His first touch when bringing a ball down is phenomenal.

Leeds’ final 8 games last season when seemingly nailed on for promotion.

Claretforever

I actually don’t want us to go up really, but know the club needs the money. We need to go up, and probably stay up for at least one season before relegation again so we get 3 years of parachute money and can then be less bothered about promotion. I hate the Premier League. I hate VAR. I had losing ...

Burnley has, historically, been a Yorkshire town and we would only be reverting to that. I thought the Doomsday book listed the Blackburn Hundred as part of Yorkshire before Lancashire was formed, and Burnley was so small at the time it wasn’t listed, but the area of the current town was within the...

They do a good job on your car. I’ve spoken with a few of them in the past and they were from Iraq and Syria.

I've got to admit, I've got in to the habit of this, there was no reason for me to leave early other than to get to the bar before the queues. Pi$$ poor to be fair, I just hate having to queue to leave the ground at fulltime, takes about 15 minutes to get out :oops: I wasn’t having a go, I just not...

What I find strange is people’s obsession with what time people leave the ground like it’s any of their business. What I find strange is people not reading the whole comment or understanding that the person they’re quoting is always defensive of people doing what they like ( they pay for their tick...

No way I’m having that’s a red card. Surely that gets overturned on appeal? I can understand a booking at best but he wasn’t violent at all.

Claretforever

He runs into the box with purpose, and because of his quick feet defenders back off and don’t challenge. The amount of times we’re getting to the by-line now and cutting it back, whereas previously were we’re checking back too early, means we’re causing a lot more problems.

Claretforever

What I found strange yesterday was the sheer amount of fans that got up and left in the 86th minute when the ball went out. I know people drift out towards the end for their own reasons, and it’s up to them of course as they’re free to come and go as they please, but I’ve never seen so many people l...

Millwall have beaten them twice already this season.

I don't pretend to be an expert but surely the big bull runs are going to be less extreme the longer we go on. It's probably harder to make as much money now as people were doing a few years ago. That’s somewhat true, especially now there are so many crypto tokens to spread the money about now comp...
