A few years ago I was following my wife in our cars through a small north Yorkshire town.
She was given a speeding notice whereas i wasn’t and yet our speeds were exactly same.

I have spoken with the club about about the need to have a measured approach to the pre match build up. Clearly they havent listened. I am troubled that this has turned into a censorship issue . Make no mistake I will be taking this further as shouting at fans as part of a match buildup, simply wind...

I remember my son in law telling me how upset his son - a Bristol City fan - was when we bought J. Brownhill. I thought he was underused by SD, and i believe his best position is playing just behind the forwards. Finished on a high with us last season. At least i won’t see anymore ill judged referen...

A lovely summer. Tomatoes grown outside, continental type
drinks in the garden, playing cards and losing money.
It was also my first probation officer residential training placement at a Hostel for men who were alcoholics

SouthLondonexile

You raise a reasonable argument there ecc. To take this discussion further i really think these internationals - as important as they are - are quite disruptive to teams who wish to keep a team morale and momentum going. For Burnley with so many new faces coming together only to be held back by thes...

I thought Rooney was a good pundit . He gave some good insights into the nature of football. Particularly when speaking about the overpriced Newcastle forward who is refusing to play. Rooney talked about how he wanted away from Man Utd , but he also continued to play and train. While I think Shearer...

It is with some regret that this young man is moving to Accrington. When i saw him play i thought he played with all the assurance you might see from a first team player
I wish him well but i believe he would have grown in stature this season.

SouthLondonexile

For me Daniel Drinkwater - if only he had!

SouthLondonexile

This has been a long time coming.
I think he was a magnificent football player.
He has, apart from the World Cup 1998 incident, been a model professional on and off the field.
Sir David Beckham arise.

SouthLondonexile

Frankly I haven’t seen enough of him, to make a judgement.
However if he does stay, I would like there to be an absence of hostility towards him.

SouthLondonexile

Uneasy.
I remember thinking VAR the best thing since sliced bread.
Seeming at first to pick up on stuff the referees missed so readily , like being awarded our first penalty in three and half years.
Yet even VAR gets things wrong meaning it’s value has been diminished. I say scrap it.

SouthLondonexile

I would pick none of them. We have an excellent all round squad, with a fit Foster. I was wondering why it would be unrealistic for us to get Berge back . I don’t know if anyone has seen the recent interview with Alan Pace, speaking about the difficulties of trading in the Premier League. Thank good...

Forgive them Lord for they know not what they did.

I’m just off screen . i’d travelled up from Cornwall in the morning. He’s such a character and talisman for BFC.
A team needs their leaders - with Charisma.
I was thinking this morning about Glenn Hoddles decision not to take Gazza to the World Cup. He was missed.
We missed Barnesy last season.

SouthLondonexile

Excellent report T. Just one thing I sit in the Bob Lord end near the opposition. fans. It felt to us that the first foul on Flemming where he scythed down at ankle level could not have been more obvious. The award of a penalty a few minutes later felt like an apology( by the ref) decision. A fabulo...

Bristol City I have two daughters who live there, with grandchildren who go to the games.
Also as i live in Cornwall it would be my nearest Premier League club.

SouthLondonexile

Very confident

SouthLondonexile

I suggest you look closely at Leeds remaining fixtures.
They could easily draw against any of the teams eg Bristol City.
I think we have firmed up on our results being more likely to win than draw.
I think we will beat Sheffield Utd handsomely
So - STICK.

SouthLondonexile

We were crying out for a player of his stature when we sold Berge to Fulham.
I was delighted when we signed him, he has been exceptional.

SouthLondonexile

Eustace made such a song and dance about SP disrespecting him before the Blackburn game this season. Acted like the school bully.

SouthLondonexile

Well I have the utmost respect for him.
There are two qualities I particularly like about him are his good manners and his intelligence.

SouthLondonexile

The edge was taken off Billy’s visit to the Turf, by the announcer persisting with his drivel despite the fact the PA System was not properly synchronised. It was unnecessarily loud. Burnley FC let’s make the right kind of noise not just triple echo hyperbole, from an amateur announcer used to the s...

Slivovitz bonkers rough plum brandy from the old Yugoslavia.
It erased the memory of 2 days of my life.

SouthLondonexile

Well since we bought in Marcus Edwards I think we are winning games and keeping a momentum. We drive forward more and there is just two points separating the top 3. There are two tricky games for us Sheffield Utd and the away game at QPR. Do well against these two should - as well as not losing the ...

SouthLondonexile

This is an excellent question. For me it is not a simple choice, of the Premiership at all costs. It is more enjoyable in the Championship as we have been quite successful against other teams in this division. Getting hammered is not fun, and we did have an awful start to the 23/24 but then our earl...

SouthLondonexile

I like the positive thinking here. Harwood-Bellis

SouthLondonexile

Common sense has prevailed .
The next step is for the referee to be stood down and recommended for further training, only to return to lower league officiating when seen as match ready by the FA.

SouthLondonexile

Such a poor return for all three clubs. Surviving and establishing yourself as a Premiership Team was something we did very well under Sean Dyche. We have a defence that should - if we get promoted - be up to the task. Our midfield is much stronger, i’ll take Berge back thank you Fulham. Our forward...

SouthLondonexile

For me the person who has impressed me the most is Nedum Onuoha. I also really like ex Burnley forward Ian Wright

SouthLondonexile

Well i think it is a darn shame we will be losing Trafford.
I think he should stay with us if we are promoted.
However i am a realist and maybe we could agree to bring back Pope to the Burnley Conclave!

SouthLondonexile

Someone on here wanted better communication from the club about Tresors situation.
I agree. It would help us understand the situation.

SouthLondonexile

Isn’t he just. A sensational goal!

SouthLondonexile

had a sensational game, my MOM.

SouthLondonexile

what a talent. Never seen anything like him!

SouthLondonexile

I’m guessing that this is a new managers bounce.
The real Everton has yet to emerge

SouthLondonexile

i’d say yes, if only to make me feel better!

SouthLondonexile

The referee made a poor decision and the Sky Pundits gave even poorer punditry saying the defender clearly went for the ball.
Should have been a penalty.

SouthLondonexile

I think we have another Trevor Steven on our hands .

SouthLondonexile

Well it was a game neither team wanted to lose and what’s more we didn’t. It was a game crying out for a substitution in the last twenty minutes - Ashley Barnes would i feel confident have changed things around. It was a game played cautiously but with only occasional bright moments. As for being th...

Brownhill is a strong and clever player. Plays at his best as an attacking midfielder. He has scored more goals than you might expect, some of them game changers. I think he gets a raw deal on this forum, especially when he’s described as not being Premiership quality.. A Debruyne he is not nor is h...

It was a cold night in Devon . I’d give the facilities at Plymouth 8/10. About five minutes before the end of the first half, i’d beat the queues and get warmed up with a hot cup of tea (6/10 because it was hot.) I spoke with my old mate Bill and new mate Dan and with a hot sausage roll in my mouth ...

I think that being second in the championship does not mean our lack of goals is killing us. Nil Nil represents a good score against an impressive Sunderland team whose own lack of goals sees them with just one point. This is despite every effort by the referee to give them every advantage in the ga...

i think SD can hold his head up high.
Everton have been a basket case where the environment has been toxic for both players and managers.

SouthLondonexile

Being a soft southerner, I always compared the weather to being like the Russian Steppes.
My dream was to have small holding halfway up a steep sided valley within sight of the Turf.
I’ve recently dropped the idea of keeping a couple of horses - or perhaps i could have some rescue ponies.

SouthLondonexile

Don’t care what he does ( so long as it’s legal)
He should never have left us in the first place.
I’ve not been so happy since Trevor Steven scored two goals against QPR away.

SouthLondonexile

i would never have let him go.

SouthLondonexile

BRILLIANT!

Really looking forward to this one!
I'll be optimistic and go 2- nil to the clarets

i reckon we are firing on all cylinders now, and we will win 2 - 0!

SouthLondonexile

That’s about right. Brownhill is out of this world. I’ve always rated him, especially when going forward. He is our very own Lampard. Laurent has come into his own being both powerful and awesome. Our midfield really is very special. Let’s carry on playing to our strengths. Oh god and I left out Han...
