What a fantastic attendance for Padiham, I couldn’t make it how was it so high ? How many did Barlick bring ?

Barlick brought a fair few with them.

Lots of neutrals there too. Helps when there’s no games on the tv for people to stop at home/ watch down the pub.

Must admit I was pretty shocked when I heard most of Colne's team were on about 100 quid a week a few years back. Unless somebody is bankrolling the club not sure how it's possible really getting crowds of about 300, most of whom will have bought cheap season tickets. You can double that now for Co...

Mark Yates - scored on his debut and then never scored again.

Thanks for posting Tony.
Chris Pearce's last game until mid-November.
Was there talk at the time of any other goalkeepers being looked at before Marriott was brought in?

Sympathy For The Devil Gimme Shelter On the day when Charlie has past can anybody remind me the title of the song that videoed with the set filling with bubbles.

Was the start of 91-92 Casper's first time trying a back 5 or had he given it a go in previous seasons?
Seemed to be wanting to try and make it stick in 91-92 but was hampered by injuries pretty early on.
Were others surprised to see Jakub moved to left back?

Interestingly, Aldershot keeper John Granville was Trinidad & Tobago captain at that time.

He threw Ben Mee around the Turf like a rag doll.

Destroyed him that day. Mee was like a little boy.

If you watch the Burnley are Back video narrated by Clive Tydlesley, there is a home game where we concede in front of the CF stand and you can see John Pender having a real go at Pearce for dropping the ball. He holds an imaginary ball in front of him and shouts something at Pearce. In fact it was...

FA cup preliminary round tomorrow.
Barnoldswick town v Ramsbottom.
Ramsbottom one league above Barlick but Barlick
have started the season well with 3 wins and 1 draw
to go top of the north west counties league.
Should be a good game.

Lots of money being spent at Barnoldswick this season.

Who was your favourite goalkeeper between Pearce & Jensen?

djemba-djemba

Classic Pearce goalkeeping for their first.... Wigan also had one disallowed which was practically a carbon copy of their 1st goal with Pearce fumbling at it. I wonder if this game was the final straw for Casper/Mullen with Pearce. Pearce could be a great shot stopper but he just seemed to get wors...

Ah yes I’d forgotten about Aldershot. I went to the away game that year it was blowing a gale. Also 2-0.

Weren’t the Lowerhouse fans the ones who were calling out Clitheroe not long since for throwing money at things? Or was that Burnley fans? I can’t remember.

Garlick needs to be Blamed for a lot of our problems

It’s Dyche who wants all these old cloggers constantly getting extensions.

Didn’t Mike refuse to give them to Hart etc and that’s why Dyche spat his dummy out?

It’s 2021. We simply shouldn’t be bringing on Barnes as the first change. Tired, old team - I’m not convinced that most of the them won’t continue getting contract extensions until they’re pushing 40.

And we all know who is to blame for that.

He may well need a break, but he’s a talented lad who is still at age where he’s developing his game and we’ve been asking a hell of a lot for him.

Yes, he probably does deserve a nice, long rest now after playing 60 gruelling minutes already this season.

djemba-djemba

And some mugs think he’s worth £40-50 million!

The guy is knackered after 70 minutes most games.

We’re a bit of a **** show at the minute with regards to some of the decisions we’re making and the way we go about them.

On the bright side those volunteers from the turnstiles, cafe and changing rooms now have the day off. Very good! They actually won’t though.

Sorry, allow me to elaborate a little... it’s a disgrace how they’ve handled this move. As you are aware, they played their home games at Padiham for the last 3 years. There was no confirmation nor even an indication from the Burnley Women’s team that they were planning on switching to play from Acc...

The commentary mentioned the supporters on the roof but we didn’t see them.

There's a photo of it in Bob Lord's book. Fans running around on the roof apparently.
Quite harrowing with what followed many years later.

The majority of the time, yes. We perhaps have half a dozen games a season where we play some decent stuff but on the whole I feel we are not a good side to watch.

Half a dozen!? That’s being generous...

I can’t remember where it was but he once jumped up and hit his head on the top of the dug out leaving him requiring treatment. He had a big cut on the top of his head.

I’d guess at 91/92 season. Vaguely remember him having an argument with the linesman who wouldn’t let him in to treat Lancashire who’d just been brought down when clear on goal.

Thanks burnmark. I get the impression we started going to games around the same time.
