I can see him falling apart if they don't put a good run together soon. They are under more pressure to secure promotion than they were last season, and at the helm is a guy who doesn't seem to cope too well under pressure.

Are you joking? Was naff and overplayed then and remains naff today

Naff and annoying. So much so, that nightclubs used to play it at chucking out time to clear the dance floor.

We are a small fish in a big pond, and we are always going to struggle against teams that are title contenders - no shame in that. One thing is for sure: the vast majority of us celebrated being back in this league, knowing full well there would be days like this.

I thought it was UK law that brown sauce is for breakfast baps and ketchup was for hotdogs

It should be. Might as well slop vinegar, sugar and salt on your bacon butty.

Clovius Boofus

Too many coffee shops? People getting up off their arse and opening a business or working for one - how dare they. If there isn't demand, they won't be around for long, but why have a pop at those who are willing to earn a living? Sounds like a fourth-gen feckless mindset to me.

I spoke to mate who works in retail about putting Christmas stuff out so early. He linked it the upcoming budget and that retailers were trying to capitalise prior to this…..don’t know what truth is in it though The September Christmas tat thing has been around for a few years. Last year I was in a...

He mentioned local beers at 'daft prices' in the New Brew’m. So, I'd like to know what he paid for a pint of something from Moorhouses or Reedley Hallows?

New Fan Zone attraction 2 quid a go. See how hard you can kick a football at a carboard cutout of Alan Pace on the back wall of the old sports hall. Winner gets a pie (Subject to stocks) No, no. no. It would only be a modern pie. They'd want a pie made of lard and tripe, like great grandma used to ...

Always found that Burnley folk in general love a moan. It can be endearing, it can also be infuriating, especially when they tend to do the square root of f**k all to help change whatever they are griping about.

Yeah, that sounds about right.

Clovius Boofus

I'm all for criticism where criticism is warranted, however, there are some who jump on anything and everything. If the current board offered every season ticket holder a 18ct gold coin, we'd have posts complaining it wasn't 22ct.

New Brewm Great local beers at daft prices.

What do you class as daft prices for a pint of ale, say around under the 5% mark?

Clovius Boofus

Sounds like the same chap who came to collect mine. Was clearly taking great pleasure in trying to find things. Pointed out a dent to me that I couldn't even see after he had mentioned it. To be honest, that's the main reason I won't lease again. Not a nice experience. Our kid is the same. Also tol...

Hatters has really taken off and deservedly so. He's worked hard to build it up and yesterday he had 4 excellent real ales on and was very busy. Hatters fits in great alongside The Brewn and The Bridge which are also superb and the rumour I heard yesterday was that Hatters only missed out on inclus...

They really do pour over it when they come to collect it, trying to add on charges for minor bumps and nicks.

Our kid had one poured over for two and a half hours by a guy armed with a camara, iPad and a clipboard.

Heartbreaking but also uplifting at the same time. UTC!

Aye, really gutted, to say the least, yet many positives can be taken from that game. We played one of the top teams in the world and came ever so close to getting a point. This is why it hurts, but like I said, also many positives.

I don’t see how the closure of junctions on the M65 would stop you getting on the A58 in Halifax.

A56 - the Accy bypass at junction 8 on the M65.

I've just found out that next week there are overnight closures on the M65 - Jct 8 to 7. Does anyone know if l will be able to get on the A58 bypass?

Regarding veg, I hate sprouts (they be the work of the Devil) and I'm not too taken with asparagus. As for fruit, I'll eat most apart from avocados - they make me gip.

One of my most hated things in football .
Never understand the people buy them .

I wouldn't wear one - I don't even wear our own colours, but I really couldn't give a toss what others wear to a football match. I supposed it's a memento of the fixture, nevertheless, not really arsed.

Didn’t they sack the successful Cooper last time? I recall a lot of outrage at that. Turned out ok.

This is why a specifically wrote 'nearly always'.

Clovius Boofus

Sacking success? The outcome is nearly always failure.

Clovius Boofus

They showed that clip on the documentary I mentioned - made me chuckle.

Clovius Boofus

Watched a three part Arena series on him last week that was made in the 1990s. It might be on the BBC iPlayer. Well worth watching. He was before my time, however, I have seen most of his films, the successful ones at least. His was a comic genius, but also a deeply flawed person .

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.

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...

It's an 'I don't give a toss' society, and it's all ages too.

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...
