I’m sure age (older!) plays a part but as you say special times!

Nostalgia and age I guess. But even the Stan days I never held in the same regard. And I was of an age where I could ‘enjoy’ it too. So not entirely. Not to say the Stan times weren’t great for that period in the middle.

Surely City are our biggest bogey side ? Didn't seem to matter what level we played them at more often than not they just spank us I know Wigan were one believe it or not. Wolves and Sheffield Utd always felt like they were but no more. But I believe Wigan is the side we had the worse record agains...

Interesting list. This is PREMIER League only. But still. Nobody tops Goater (unless Kane scored against us in cups)?

Aguero had 3 in cups. Total 9.

No THEY didn't it was just Shaun Goater..... or certainly felt that way?!?!?! He was like Aguero Mk1. Those 2 between them scored what feels like countless amounts of goals against us!!! Felt like Wanchope too! Aguero has 9 against us. Goater 10!! Anyone else anywhere close, cant think of many if a...

Esteve was very cheap. That said we won't keep many clean sheets and he doesn't score many. Although when he moves to Spurs in august he will be a bargain. Tresor Cheap but not worth the gamble. Edwards on the other hand is. That said, the way points works - again he doesn't get enough assists and g...

My favourite ever manager and greatest time watching the clarets. 1991-1994 in particular were very special times on and off the pitch!

New announcement? Brownhill? Kit? New signing? Update on dyches cut on his head?

CyrilEbokiPoh

No. In the 90s. Even when they were **** they used to put five and six past us. And even when we were level pegging in the 2000s. they still put five past us.

'he's gonna have a huge career and will make more England caps than Heaton and Pope have combined.'

You and nobody else can guarantee this quote

It’s fair to assume he will get more than 13 caps. Especially if he moves to a top club

B*stards have a pre season game not far from Benidorm.

Why cant we have something similar, imagine a few days in Benidorm in the sun with 100s of other clarets.

Not going to lie im jealous

Barnes at West Brom would have been right up there. Incredible goal.

For anyone who can’t remember. That should definitely be in anyone’s top three

There’s an argument for all of them. I loved Hendricks goal vs Bournemouth. And plenty of goals missing that could / definitely should be included. But I’d have to go for Blake. To wait so long to appear on the big stage, to beat Man Utd at home under the lights with a goal like that was something s...

I never thought you were, I thought it was as it was intended as lighthearted fun and enjoyed it Just pointing out that I think her delivery and style are more suited to this than the “formal” interviews Apologies. I intended to quote a different post where I think the suggestion was that I was. 👍

Ah forgot happa, that's a good one. Not done bistro 197, always been full when tried to go

Both excellent. Proper ingredients. And excellent service and quality. And the price is very good at both.

Granted neither are a hotel.

Maybe the “new guy” is for the more “serious” stuff player interviews, post match etc and these are going to be used for the lighthearted fun parts

I was not being entirely serious. Thought was quite a good interview.

CyrilEbokiPoh

There is no way on gods green earth that Heaton should be starting for anyone next year. Never mind us. And he’s my favourite ever Burnley keeper. He’s not started a league game for almost six years. And the game - especially in his position, has changed massively in that time. Not to mention the fa...

The sausage at JJ’s are shocking. Inedible cardboard. The miners cafe is quite good and decent value. There’s a cafe open at the weekends at Kelbrook clay ground. Great breakfast, and the sausages are awesome. Jjs must have changed. As last post. I always find it decent but not a patch on the bistr...

CyrilEbokiPoh

There's not really a decent breakfast about Burnley anymore, JJ'S used to be about the best but that's gone gash too It's all cheap and cheerful stuff. I won't eat cheap sausage Bistro 197 and HAPPA are both very good. And good value for money. Jjs at dunkenhalgh is decent but not as good as those.

Big Gaz, that is in bad taste, not a takeaway food pun. To take the mik out of someone trying to set light to anyone is bad enough, but knowing it’s a then Burnley manager is bang out of order.

Agreed. Poor taste that. Especially given the circumstances.

It's quite clearly a goal as the keeper hasn't saved it. If he touches it onto the post, the game stops.
But I don't think it should be changed though.

What if he tips it on to the post and it rolls in

I get it at its most basic level; Goal; keeper saves and its a corner; keeper saves and its held; player hits wide and its a goalkick; - what's the proposed protocol for hitting the woodwork or keeper saving it a long distance and rebounding back into play?

United were one of the best teams in Europe when Heaton came through. City were a bit crap and Hart was probably a bit lucky in terms of timing with Given coming to the end. They were all very good at there best but I'd still have Hart third. I thought there were huge weaknesses In his game even at...

Apologies if I’ve misread the tone of your reply, but I’ve not created any market or written any books? It’s a former colleague who has written the book about his favourite era of his team.

Used to live on Olympia Street. Always remember my dad telling me as a kid (maybe 5) that a Burnley keeper lived around the corner (Grew up on Mitella.) Couldn’t believe it.

I used to regularly see him in the chippy at the top end of lyndhurst road (And Adie Randall lived at the other end)

CyrilEbokiPoh

He had the easier circumstances. Heaton and Pope had to work there way back up. Not necessarily, Hart started at Shrewsbury, then multiple lower league loans before working his way up and dislodging one of the premier leagues best Goalkeepers in Prem History in Shay Given.
