Re: French air traffic control strike!

Despite the warnings we arrived about 40 minutes late. So, on the whole not too problematic.

Jordan Beyer

I noticed he featured in the recent Clarets video centred around Ramsay’s recovery.
Is Beyer still injured and in recovery?
He’s contracted to us until 2027. Two more seasons.
If anyone could shed any light on this?

Sad news.
I played against him once in a 5 a side in Bacup.
Whilst I thought I was a decent player, he quickly made me look very average indeed.
It was no surprise he made it at BFC.
