Great to hear and read about The Ram being on the up. Stopped going years ago when it became a poor-quality deep-fry and microwave eatery with a take it or leave it attitude. Used to think it was a crying shame given its setting. Will check it out soon.

It was coming.

They are cutting through us too easily.

Always thought that was poor form from Dyche - the comment about his parents being at his contract signing

Yes, especially when top clubs and managers actively encourage parental input.

People have been banging on, about how society is broken, well before Aristotle. I bet most on here were young adults or teenagers in the 1960s or 1970s. In those days, older folks blamed most of society's ills on Mods, Rockers, Hippies, Drugs, Glam Rock, Punk etc. Nowadays, people blame social medi...

More than 1,200 jobs could be at risk from the closure of a major distribution site in Burnley.

The brand, which was bought by...

It's an 'I don't give a toss' society, and it's all ages too. I saw blokes in their mid-sixties squaring up for a fight at the weekend, and it wasn't a town centre pub either, or a what most people would class a roughen. Still think and act like they are fourteen. Pathetic. Same with aggressive driv...

Our energy prices are some of the most expensive in the world. There are gas reserves to be had in the North Sea, and shale gas underneath our feet. Then there's the cost added on for the so-called renewables. How can industry compete when it's being anchored? No wonder our economy is spluttering. N...

Favela? File under Carling dross. Same with blue label Peroni. When in Italy, I don't see many Italians drinking it. If they do have a bottle of Peroni in front of them, it will be the red label stuff which is way superior.

Build a temporary 'LEGO' style stadium at Crow Wood.

I don't think the owners of Crow Wood would be very happy about that.

If we’re judging fans by a minority of message board muppets, Burnley are screwed.

I wonder if we are the only fans who moan about our older fan base? I bet we probably are, as we do seem to moan about anything and everything regarding BFC, to the extent, that I wonder why some people even bother with football, because they don't seem to enjoy much about it. Even in pre-season, it...

WH smiths was one of my favourite stores growing up in the 80s. They had books, magazines and even computer games. I bought all my books from there and won a few competition s for book tokens.

Buy the least expensive yet driveable car you can find, drive it into the ground, rinse and repeat Cars are nothing but money pits

I've done this for years. I don't give a toss about what's parked on my drive as long as it's comfortable to drive, well maintained and reliable.

I'd be interested to know which ward let 3 minibuses full of people enter a ward with vulnerable people. That needs reporting

They should have been asked to leave. If they ignored this, security should have been called.

The patients and visitors. My ward considered of the psychotic to the undead. One patient drank half a cup of tea then urinated in the rest and threw it in the face of a nurse.

The ward manager should have called the police. Being in hospital doesn't give people a 'get out of jail free' card.

Brussels sprouts are the work of the Devil.

I was clearly talking about those vans that drive around waking up nightshift workers.

I'm surprised they sell any. I mean, you can buy a box of Magnums for under £3.00 when you go shopping and stick 'em in the freezer. Mind you, this requires some forward planning, and maybe this is beyond some people. The days when homes only had a small fridge with a tiny ice compartment are long g...

No-one booed the minute's silence. The booing from Liverpool fans was aimed at the handful of Palace fans who shouted out during the minute's silence.

Well, if true, that shows how thick some Liverpool fans are. They should have ignored it, but instead, they ruined their own minute's silence.

Didn't realise Rick Astley was into his Chesterfields, maybe explains why he wrote "Never gonna give up".

It might also explain why nowadays he does a full set of Smiths covers - there is a light that never goes out.

Be careful with the two pint thing. There are lots of variables at play. Weight, age, metabolism, tiredness - then there's the percentage of the ale you are supping, and how quickly you're drinking it.

I'd be up for changing the law regarding banned drivers. Anyone banned from driving should be required to take a retest before getting their licence back.

Hell of a book about the Vulcan raid on the Falkland's air strip

Cheers. I'll add this to my reading list. I've always had an affection for Vulcan bombers after seeing two of them flying low over Scarborough castle when I was a kid. It felt like the ground was shaking.
