I’m tempting fate here, but if you’ve found that your digital ticket works, there should be no need to keep carrying the card as well - they are both the same image. That said, with how flaky many of the club ‘improvements’ seem to be, it might be worth taking the card, order confirmation email and ...

Set your cruise control to 70, problem solved. If you're in a rush,set off earlier.

That’s a little more than ambling, I’d say, Amble.

It seems to be the thing to do, these days. It’s not just football. Concerts, clubs, everyday life - people’s first thought seems to be about capturing it (presumably to post later) rather than living in and enjoying the moment. I find it weird, but I find people needing / wanting to publish their l...

Big Les wasn’t persistently fouling, yet at soon as he’s makes that 2nd challenge he sends him off

I’ve not seen any replays as yet, but if both challenges warranted a yellow card, whether he was or wasn’t persistent fouling has no bearing.

DCWat

Loads of positives to take from that display.

We’ve just got to put a stop to the brain farts - Anthony and now Mejbri. That’s 180 plus minutes of superb effort and commitment with nothing to show for it, because we’ve shot ourselves in the foot.

I’m probably stepping on the toes of many a fellow northerner here, not to mention every single Burnley FC fans function since the year dot, but mushy peas.

Yeah it is. Their traditional ground in La Paz was already high altitude and they actually moved somewhere even higher to give themselves a bigger advantage. Looks like its paid off for them.

I’d be lumping on them for the 2034 Nepal World Cup.

I doubt that these are of much interest to those who aren’t Burnley fans, but I’m liking them and they’re well done. Parker, Barnes and perhaps even more so, Esteve, come across really well. It won’t happen but I’d love Esteve to stay for years to come, I’m sure we all would! Great to see what looks...

Is that a benefit of us now being CAT1, a greater level of compensation?

Putting my Claret ...

Their nearest away day looks to be Yeovil, which is nigh on two and a half hours away. They also have Hartlepool to go to as well as Gateshead and the Carlisle trip, that they’ve just done.

That’ll be some miles clocked up and some proper commitment to the cause, from their supporters.

I think the idea of the thread is pretty clear, it's regarding how people currently feel about the players we have brought in - not to judge it in 2 months time.

Brilliant reveal video!

Was it? I watched it and thought it was a pretty crap. Perhaps we need to mix it up a bit, now.

The clicks and giggles reveals aren’t aimed at me, I get that.

DCWat

Plenty positives to take from that second half, alongside plenty of learnings defensively, throughout the game. Whatever the view of the penalty, Anthony shouldn’t have given that option by pulling his shirt. I still think we are 3 players short and need to look at Hannibal. I’m not criticising his...

Really good player for us and was/is a massive miss. The one player VK got right, had attitude, ability and loyalty. Questioning a South American player wanting to make the move he did is bonkers.

Looks a lot more rapid in that clip than I’d realised. Very good finish from such a tight angle.

Had Walker not signed for us, there would be no clamour for him to be in the squad, so no arguments from me. If he puts in some quality performances between now and the next selection time, maybe that will change, but for now, fair do’s. I’ve seen nothing of Henderson so can’t really comment, but it...

Good to see a few of the injured players making their way back, not to mention, a rare sighting of the lesser spotted Tresor.

DCWat

A right wing back would be my top priority. I think we are fine at centre half, once Humphries is back in. New, Walker, Esteve, Humphries, Hartman looks like a pretty good back five to me, with plenty options for cover. After that it would be an extra defensive midfielder and potentially, depending ...

In isolation we might have accepted the bid from Wolves, but the fact that we were absolutely haemorrhaging players at the time made it difficult to do. Think we all expected him to make more of an impact on the pitch, too. Fair point regarding the number of players departing, at the time. Presumab...

I didn’t realise until I went into one in Leeds, the other week. Exactly the same inside and still with Smiths branded items for sale.

The only noticeable difference seemed to be how dull it was in the store. Not sure if they had a lighting issue or are trying to cut costs by reducing the leccy bill!

Should, with hindsight have been sold last summer, when his stock was high and there was apparent interest.

Of course you do because you support Burnley CC……I don’t I think it’s shocking that the CC is unlikely to offer an inch to the club because it’s bank rolling it. The CC is a parasite.

I think we'll see at least one more. Parker’s ‘a couple of areas’, or however he phrased it, would suggest two or three more.

Agreed, but kids are getting into vaping at 14/15 through peer pressure - not sure they would've done the same with cigarettes.

These type of things demonstrate the challenge that BFCISA and perhaps the FAB has. Appreciating that these decisions were pre BFCISA, why not consult with the fans groups available to them.

It’ll be interesting to see what the agreed approach is for BFCISA to communicate with the club. Good to read that the suggestion of utilising the FAB was politely and rightly declined, if perhaps slightly concerning, that it was put forward as a suggestion.

Has the club committed to future meetings?
