Players live? ,with all the recent talk of us living in a shi*hole..which we most certainly don't,where do most of our players make their homes,some beautiful places close by, anyone know?

Cheshire, Manchester and similar I would have thoughts. Can't imagine any of them living around Burnley. Maybe off towards Yorkshire down that way perhaps, but I doubt it.

Colin Blant lived in Rawtenstall..

Didn't Danny Ings live in Ilex mill in Rawtenstall,saw him in Tesco a few times.

Steven Defour lives on Berry Street, Healey Wood.

Since they knocked down Trafalgar flats, they're scattered all over the place.

Wherever the council can find them a place, I'd imagine.

I believe Andre Gray has recently taken up residence next door to the chippy near the Stoops Estate.

I hope that grumpy old bugger isn't still in the shop at the top of Laithe Street then

Dyche is in Whalley

I understand he has a place in Lothersdale near Skipton, as his kids go to the primary there.

Heaton lived in Cliviger but I think he's moved elsewhere now.

Always baffles me this talk of Burnley being a **** hole and it putting players off. Anyone would think that Rooney lives in Cheetam Hill, Coutinho in Croxteth and Hazard in Brixton.

Gray and Ward still live near Wolverhampton. Often see them heading back down the M6 after a game

Brady and Hendrick are in Hale Barnes

I thought Gray and Vokes were neighbours in Manchester?

I hear Vokes used to be in a place in Egerton near Bolton. Rumour has it Burnley have a couple of places down there for new signings to use

A few years ago I showed Jay and his parents round my sister’s house nr Worsthorne. Jay was very keen and would have bought it but it was already under offer and that sale went to completion.

I've heard Gray, Vokes and Tarks have houses very close, if not next door to each other.

Isn't one of the reasons SD still commutes from Northampton, that he doesn't want his kids to change school?

Dre lives in da hood.

Would make sense as those 3 seem very tight knit and think they car share to training.

That would be Deakins Mill, Rooster booster. Vokes used to live across from a friend of mine, but he moved away a couple of years ago now.

Fills me with sadness to see people describe Burnley as such. Every town and city (including a London) has a less attractive area. Burnley has some great areas and is surrounded by beautiful countryside and fine villages.

I'm proud to be born in Burnley and always tell people. Lancashires a fine place and the people mostly warm and friendly.

Dyche might have a house there for when he is up here, but his kids are older and his family home is in Northampton

I know someone who bumped into Dyche two weeks ago in a pub in Whalley.
In conversation he was asked about living in Burnley and I said he house shares with Ian Woan when he up here, the house is on or near Calderstones Park in Whalley.
Returns to his family home in Northampton, as often as he can.

Bet Woan makes the omelettes then!

Dyche lives on Lyndhurst Road near the bottom chippy, and Gray lives in da Wood...Burnley Wood. All the other players are happy around Stoneyholme other than when Bamford was here showing off, as he rented a 2 up 2 down with a garden up Wycoller. Posh sod.

They don't live anywhere, they're always training or playing. No rest or mod cons
for our lads.

LoveCurryPies is spot on in all seriousness. Due to people saying it often enough, those who don't get around the UK start to believe that Burnley is actually some kind of sh*thole in a vortex of sh*thole places.

I see all around the UK through work, and whether it's Birmingham, London, Newport, Leicester, Swindon, Oldham or Coventry, there are some real hell holes in every single one. Burnley is no better, but certainly no worse than any of those, or other places.

We have some rough areas and some beautiful places, which are all relative to the size of the town.

You're right, we have some very dodgy areas here in Kent, a county which many outsiders think lives up 100% to its nickname ('The Garden of Kent'). Even Tunbridge Wells, Maidstone and Bromleyl have some ropey areas. When you escape from those parts, there are admittedly some picturesque parts of the county but it's not long before things take a turn for the worse again and you come across a Dartford, a Gillingham or a Sheerness.
