Why do people Chuck things at football matches ?

Because they are plonkers

The Shire Claret

But Spurs beat us 3-0 and only beat Leeds 2-1. Which means we get relegated at 12 noon tomorrow. But we lost 3-0 away to spurs and they lost 2-1 at home to Spurs But Luca Koleosho scored at Leeds last season and this season he’s at Espanyol So I think this means we are going to win La Liga in 2029

The Shire Claret

We beat Sunderland 2-0 and United Beat them 2-0 and we lost to a last minute penalty 3-2 to United

I think this means we are going to win the champions league

The Shire Claret

We’ve been torn apart in every away game this season, the system isn’t working. Go and look at that 2nd Man United goal, Sunday league defending, a goalkeeper long punt from kick off, 15 seconds later it’s in our net. All these defensive players on the pitch and we can’t do the basics. A stark cont...

It is, and I get your point, but equally towns have to undergo works like this for their betterment and long term prosperity. It’s a lot of short-term pain for hopefully decades of gain by making them much nicer places to visit and therefore operate businesses from. The Deardengate plans look great...

I believe Deardengate in Haslingden will be closed until next year.

I will echo your thoughts on the local businesses on that road, it must be devastating for them.

It’s absolutely shocking …

Anyone that is on the podcast that reads this topic .... For every negative comment - there will be a good few more that don't comment that are positive also Balance Everyone is entitled to their opinion but it seems the negative ones come easier. Not having a go any anyones opinion either I just th...

Got 1 ticket I ordered 2 tho

Has the other person's ticket got a different email address linked to their account ?

I would start with the Town to Turf project - all done, primarily, to benefit the club with public money. The delivery of which caused incredible disruption for a year and likely negatively impacted many local businesses. It Certainly lasted longer than it should have but it certainly looks a lot b...

I’ll never forget that goal against Chelsea

Happy retirement fletch

The Shire Claret

So the public consultation period on the proposed alterations expires on the 8th October but I’m sure people will have noticed the new wall and relocated turnstiles going in at the old away fans entrance well before any consent is granted. What do you think are the chances of the council planning e...

I feel like he Referees 87.5% of our matches

The Shire Claret

I'm pretty certain it was the other way round. Brass on the right with Winstanley on the left. Winstanley couldn't have been on the right, because he only ever used that foot for standing on! Yeah you will be right - I just remember when Mark Winstanley got on the ball some guy in the Bob Lord use ...

The Shire Claret

Did we sell out ?

The Shire Claret

Centre back (Just to be pedantic!! 😃) Ironically though I mentioned Mark Winstanley on here this week when commenting on the Tuesday debacle. I reckoned Worral was actually slower than our erstwhile hero, which nobody actually challenged!! Ha ! I just remember my first season full season watching e...

You guys are clearly too young, but some of us on here remember Ray Deakin!! Crikey, we've come a long way since then.

I’ll raise you a Mark Winstanley

What a day of golf

The Shire Claret

I mean - one thing that has really suffered in this new world is local reporting

You might as well not bother going on the website

0-0 Burnley

The Shire Claret

No red on the board !

The Gods don’t like it when we both play at home at the same time

I absolutely love the Ryder Cup and going to attempt to not miss a minute but I have a feeling the American Fans are going to go to new levels of cringe and disrespect for this one

Bugger off

Don't see what that such a reach with all the work they are doing round the stadium ...

I remember a post not too far back about moving out of town but all this work is saying something like that aint happening soon.

good glasses

Whistle

Sharpen your knife

The Shire Claret

Maybe they could do a roof job to get rid of the pillars in the Bob Lord and put plastic seats in ?

The Shire Claret

Actually gonna look Mint and I love that Turf Moor has such a great mix of traditional and Modern Features

The Shire Claret

In all fairness though - should have scored at least one of those chances

The Shire Claret

Parker is pretty good at half time team talks

This will need to be a good one

The Shire Claret

Silly booking

That excuse again , they train together and it’s pretty much the same team that played in the last round

Is it an excuse ? Or just a fact ?

Chelsea are currently being outplayed by Lincoln … same thing

The Shire Claret

Edwards however needs to realise that this ref ain’t going to give anything for falling over

First ten minutes- lazy with no sense of urgency

I think it’s more of a case of 11 players that have never played a game together and have had minimal minutes

The Shire Claret

The majority of their customers are away fans...they are being dropped off as close to the cricket club that is possible. Previously they were dropped off by the away turnstiles and went straight into the ground.. now the cricket club is the option I've seen members complaining about the stewards, ...

The Shire Claret

No narrative at all, apart from the original comment I replied to, which I'm fed up of repeating As for being a welcoming place, that might be the intent, but they can't be responsible for the behaviour of the fans I've been in 3 times, on each occasion had to listen to anti Burnley chants No diffe...

The Shire Claret

It wasn't Chelsea.. they're in the Prem...it was a mediocre lower division team trying to play football in a swamp. And there was almost certainly around 20 mins still to play. These smaller clubs must be brought up to the mark and not allowed to drag the game back to days of the old Baseball Groun...

The Shire Claret

Did I say home fans were dropped at the door If you think the cricket club is anything other than the designated away pub, please tell the police, who inform every away club its the only place to go. It's now easier for them to gain entry. It's a credit to the friendly nature of the CC and the home...

The Shire Claret

They dont really need to do anything...the customers are now being dropped off at their entrance Dropping the Home fans at the door ? I'm sure you're on a wind up lol It's a Mixed place ... not away fans only And home fans go in after .... which is now more difficult I am not against the changes an...

The Shire Claret

Forgetting who it is...

If is was Burnley vs Chelsea and we were 1 nil up with 10 minutes .... i'd be raging if we didn't get awarded the 3 points

Replay behind closed doors with 10 vs 11 or 3 points to them

A replay is madness for me

The Shire Claret

Mainly away fans before the game. Now easier for them to access Not an act by pace to ruin the club, which was the one, and only point I was responding to. I don't think that's the sole intention either but if the club are informed about this and the issues their new planning is causing the CC then...

The Shire Claret

I also read, every home game, releases from the cricket club, and Burnley police that the cricket club is the place for away fans, that's what its aimed at, take away fans to somewhere else nobody would go to the cricket club When I go away, I usually follow the police advice as to which pubs to go...

The Shire Claret

Burnley is 100 times better than anywhere else if you have a full day to spend in a town for things to do in the area and surrounding areas. Blackburn Accrington Shambles these days.... Rawtenstall Clitheore and all other smaller similar towns Nice places but limited in comparison ... eveything they...

The Shire Claret

Not all away fans come in the Cricket Club - especially given they get directed down Ormerod Yard from their coaches. Also, as said, football games isn’t the huge windfall people seem to think it is. Anyway, that isn’t the point - it’s about home fans, our regulars and members, being told false inf...

I was going to go with 2 of my mates who don’t go to many matches but I can’t buy them tickets and the is no way they will be bothered to get a clarets number etc … It’s a shame really but gone are the days where you could just spontaneously go to a Burnley match with your mates who just fancied a f...

I can get behind this .... Madness

Reading this post and haven’t seen if the Cricket Club was less busy ?

The Shire Claret

Normally I'd agree But people aren't going to city because they're fed up of seeing us get beat As a supporter I dont get that, so I can't imagine what they'd do at home In all honesty… I’ll be going to 60 to 70 percent of the away games this season and I won’t be expecting to win any of them but w...

Brownhill makes his debut today for the mighty Al Shabab, wearing his familiar number 8 shirt. Currently 0 - 0 after 20 minutes. Bit toasty in Riyadh, 37 degrees C

it this on TV ?

The Shire Claret

I've never heard of anything like that before ... Maybe it's not all take aways but that specific one ?

And yeah, that would be annoying
