I would not have thought it was that long ago-17 years!!! Where has the time gone

I couldn’t believe the date when I read it! Still the odd sighting of him in Padiham Chippy even now!

Looks like we have a battle on our hands with this one. Can see this one dragging on…

Too soon?

No Broja in there Guller.

Also reported on Sky that Parker saying Fanbase could help us stay up. Anyone know anything about him?

Yeah, as well as a cap with the dopey B on it, all Premium Members go into a raffle to win a game playing up front

Just caught up on MOTD. The Foster goal was a soft decision IMO - but as someone mentions above, all it needs is for the defender to hit the deck and it's a free-kick.

John Brooks on VAR - he gave the handball for Leeds on Monday night. Would suggest he's not had the best start to the season on VAR!

Got mine last night - downloaded to Apple Wallet. I have my season card in my wallet so not sure which I'll end up using - might give the digital one a try tomorrow just for novelty value.

Do miss the old season ticket books with the number displayed on the turnstile though!

A bit further out but if you’re heading to Burnley on the train from Manchester then my little place - The Beer Necessities in Todmorden (one stop - 15 mins on the train from Burnley) is happy to welcome Sunderland fans. It fact, we’re opening early at 11.30 to welcome members of the Manchester Sund...

Ightenhill_Claret

Good point Tony! Thanks for that.

Ightenhill_Claret

Just got the same error message when trying to purchase for me and a mate. I'm quite close to the ticket office this afternoon so might pop in and see if they can sort.

Ightenhill_Claret

Hamburg v St Pauli a week on Friday on the Beeb should be a cracker!

Ightenhill_Claret

Have to say I found it very poor that they made no reference to the three departed players. All three played such a huge part in what we achieved last season and should have been recognised with at least a line in the club's story.

As part of a new push for From The Bee Hole End content on YouTube, we did a Clarets Extra episode on Koleosho last night: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqU68rOai_I One of the things we're doing with the YT stuff is inviting fans to contribute videos which we then use as discussion points/question...

Saw them headline Latitude Festival a good few years ago and they were absolutely stunning. A brilliant brilliant band and so good live!

Ightenhill_Claret

Siempre adelante. Juntos.

Ightenhill_Claret

I bet you're fun at parties...

Coming soon - from the team behind From The Bee Hole End... We present Desde El Prat, the numero uno podcast de Espanyol. First episode features an interview with Russell Balon, Director de Interacción con los Fans. Plus, we meet the new members of the Junta Consultiva de Aficionados! How FAB! Whats...

I think Brownhill's agent is a Burnley fan isn't he? (Phil Ercolano). I've no problem with him playing the field, and I think he'll end up abroad (probably MLS) where he'll get a nice payday and be one of the league's top players. I'm not sure that's the career move I'd have chosen at 29 having come...

Ightenhill_Claret

Yeah I agree Tsar - as Bobby Robson once said far more eloquently than I can, the only real constants in a football club are the fans. Not the players, not the managers, not the owners, not the investors, not the hired hands in the offices. Appreciate that in rare circumstances, some of the above ar...

Ightenhill_Claret

It's all a bit strange to me - as a Burnley fan of 35 years, I struggle to understand being that passionate about another club, let alone one I've only started supporting five minutes ago.

It's not something that I'm that bothered by, just struggle to understand it.

Ightenhill_Claret

Just reading this thread whilst enjoying a great pint in The Beer Necessities having enjoyed walking along the canal from Hebden. I regularly do this walk as not only does it pass through some lovely scenery I think both towns are interesting to spend time in. Agree that Tod is very “up and coming”...

Ightenhill_Claret

Thanks Elizabeth - added to the pile.

Here's the link for tonight's stream - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJHMUIuY_mM

Questions taken on the night as well and via our socials.

The Pod Squad are going live on Thursday evening with a special eve-of-the-season special. We're going to be giving some thoughts on the upcoming campaign, maybe even a couple of bold predictions and answering questions submitted by people in advance/on the night. I think the plan is to start at 8pm...

Ightenhill_Claret

Saw him on Harry Potts Way before game. Wasn’t limping but wasn’t moving as comfortably as someone full fit would.

Looked happy enough and was pausing for pics with kids. Can’t see him being ready for Spurs.

Ightenhill_Claret

Amazed at how little patience there is... The club are never going to announce players close together - for all we know they're waiting for enough time to pass from the Dubravka announcement to get the Broja one out. My guess is it might be another late night for Tony...

Ightenhill_Claret

Mine came this morning. Proper excited for the season now!

Ightenhill_Claret

They look like they’re having a lot of fun taking the micky out of each other. Great bond between the players.

(And as a side note, great to see Tresor feature a couple of times!)

Ightenhill_Claret

Our seats in the JHU aren't available so I've moved down to the front row near the centre of the JHU. On reflection, should have moved out to the Bob Lord Stand for this one. Not sure why I didn't suggest it to our group!

Ightenhill_Claret

I think that’s the best point to be made CT - past records really so count for very little for the vast majority of players. How many times have we seen people light up a season, get a big move and then never hit those heights again? Likewise a player who has bounced around clubs, never done much an...

The Jimmy Mullen episode is out now on all podcast platforms and as a - slightly - longer video edition on YouTube!

Ightenhill_Claret

Will add more when im back after the weekend, but if you want somewhere to watch sport, James Joyce is good in Prague, its one of the less tourist trap Irish Pubs. Letna beer garden is great with good views for outdoor pints, although it can be a bit lairy if Sparta are at home a few hours before k...

Ightenhill_Claret

We have got another lined up. Just trying to work out dates…

Ightenhill_Claret

Let's get back to celebrating Jimmy Mullen. Favourite match under Jimmy? (I'm really struggling to narrow it down to a single match!)

Ightenhill_Claret

The first thing the club need to do is get Jimmy on the turf at halftime There again if he did come on the pod you could always breach the subject I think there is certainly less concern from Jimmy about coming up now. It's all about logistics but I think there's a bit more hope now that it might h...

Ightenhill_Claret

James doesn't have an account on here but has asked me to share the following: "Just want to say what a privilege it was to go down and meet Jimmy himself. How the opportunity came about is a typically long story. But a funny one. And an opportunity we had to create / take. But in short I was workin...

Ightenhill_Claret

Invite always open for Mr Pace to come on the pod. Not given up on him appearing yet.

Ightenhill_Claret

The secret is out! We've got a very special interview with Jimmy Mullen going out on Friday. It's all down to James McDonough and Paul Coppack who travelled down to South Wales to spend an afternoon in Jimmy's company. It's a big old episode but so much brilliant stuff from Jimmy about his time at B...

Was reported that he’d suffered another long term injury

He really doesn’t have much luck does he. Such a shame for the lad if he’s picked up another long term injury.

Ightenhill_Claret

On his head, he told us his mate was having a new house built and he was round there helping him and ended up falling over.

Did say his mate has been calling him Gorbachev!

Ightenhill_Claret

That’s how I understood it when we were chatting to him Winstonswhite. It was the board that questioned him, not the fans.

Ightenhill_Claret

Just a bit of a shameless plug for a special episode of From The Bee Hole End podcast out tomorrow. We sat down with Sean Dyche tonight to chat all things Burnley (and a little bit about Oasis!). Obviously biased but I think it's a cracking chat with subjects such as the European season, transfer bu...

Ightenhill_Claret

No it’s not chilli sauce, I think they use chilli oil in the pork mix. Absolutely delicious!

Ightenhill_Claret

As people have said, best pies in the land.

And - shameless plug - pork and pork and chilli are available at The Beer Necessities in Todmorden Friday to Sunday!

Ightenhill_Claret

Looks fresh. As mentioned above, no idea why the shirt isn’t modelled with the rest of the kit. Again, I must be missing something with criticism of the marketing blurb - the shirt literally has a contour map of the local countryside printed on it, should they not pass comment on the inspiration be...

Ightenhill_Claret

Good morning troll - had you bothered to carry out your trolling to the letter you would have seen that I'd said that Preston's had gone from £60 to £70 and they are also Castore. So sorry troll, not a moan. I did think you were referring to the fact that the PNE kit had gone up by a tenner so thou...

Ightenhill_Claret

I have to say I quite like the kit. There's the usual bullshit waffle backstory but the shirt itself is pretty clean and tidy.

Hating the sponsor logo is given (especially in blue/white halves) but think the kit will look smart in the PL.

Ightenhill_Claret

Superb Pulp set!
