I'd like to see a head count, just to know that the grand traditions of this club are being carried on. That's under the AGE of 25, not I.Q. of 25. So that leaves you out Saxoman and KRBFC.

I wish I was, but I can't get close at 37.

It's important we instill into the mindset of our younger generation. The utter despair, dejection and borderline suicidal tendencies us older folk and supporters of our club had to suffer through. Let's be having you lads and lasses. What he's asking is. Which of you are plastics?! :lol

What's age got to do with anything? You're either a Burnley fan or not.

I'm 25 on the dot and I confess I've not lived to see the really bad or the really good, various videos and long converstaions aside. I'm no less a claret than Bertie though, can't help when you were born, but you sure as hell can help who you support.

yep over 25

Some posters will never achieve a mental age of 16 however old in years they actually are now.
Some know it and they love it and push it on UTC.
Sadly some others just will never know they are lacking however old they may make it.

Society eh? Can't live with it can't live without it!

I think you've asked this question too late in the evening for those of us in the UK. Either that or, because there's no school tomorrow, all the kids are out partying.

I'm doing my bit, my son is a London born Claret and under 25 - but he doesn't post on here.

I am!

Served my apprenticeship during the Cotterill years and now looking forward to a fourth PL season in 11 years of being a season ticker holder.

Although I'm told things in the garden haven't always been rosy?

You know we're going to be alright when you've seen an 8 year old Burnley fan on holiday chastising a man for asking if he was Villa.

That made me chuckle!

One of my clan was that.

The little lad clearly had a Burnley strip on.

I piped up and said.... you're not into football then.

Clearly not!

19 and ST Holder for 11 years. Thankfully I'm clued up enough to not listen to some of the drivel that gets posted on here about Dyche and the board.

make a point of always asking Villa and Wet Spam shirt wearers if they are Burnley fans.

23

That fits the profile! Ding! Ding!

My grandson is 5 and a Claret in Hertfordshire.

I won't let him post on here yet though.

12 maybe 13.

Age is just a number.

This is the REALLY GOOD btw

I'm over 25

I think I dimly remember being 25

I do recall being under 25, in a sepia sort of way.

I am 24!

I'm 27 and the toughest season I've had to endure from memory was the waddle season. Do I qualify for the exclusive club?

24, will be hitting the big 2-5 in September.

Started watching towards the back end of the promotion in 2000. Remember being heartbroken when we missed the play offs in 2002 but compared to the heartache I now know of for the older generation fans us youngsters have got off lightly so far!

I'll be celebrating my 25th birthday next year (for the second time )

You' haven't seen us get beat 0-6 at home off Hereford United. So no.

God that was a depressing time to be a Claret!

My mind is still in its early twenties, sadly the body woke up one day and was 46. Still trying to work out how and when that happened

17 so i seem to be the youngest yet

When I was 25, the commencification of the big slide down through the divisions was underway. Sad face.

I can bearly believe were the club is now

It's a shame that we appear to have so few really young posters. When I first joined the old CM board many years ago there were lots of youngsters in their mid-teens. One of them was MDWat who is still active on here. He was 15 at that time and was more than helpful to an old woman who was computer illiterate.

*I like MDWat*

Another who still posts on here occasionally was daveisaclaret. I think he was only 14.

What has happened to people like forcaburnley whose passion in life was fishing, or Hendy (HenDee - remember him,
CT?)?

Then there was the lass whose name I have forgotten who used to engage us in her homework problems.

It was fun having a number of really young posters on the board. It gave a different perspective.

I am a little over 25, BTW.

I'm 31

Like Spades, I'm a little over 25 (a good way of putting it). MDWat was a youngster back then, he's just childish now.

Hendy - I'll take the credit for the different spelling. He one started a post asking what the HD stood for with televisions and I replied Hen Dee. I've not seen him around in a long time and Cloughfold has now grown up and is working in football as a coach.

Younger than Falcon, older than gandhisflipflop.

There are far more social media platforms these days compared to 10/15 years ago, which the younger generation no doubt prefer.

....ty four.

You'd better stay away from the WAG thread. It's too rude for 17 year olds

I've seen 0-5 and 0-6 against man city and Gillingham....not sure if they were back to back home games or not.

I was chatting to forcaburnley at shamrock. He's still about although not sure if he's about on here these days. I joined claretsmad when I was 17.

Yeah we lost 0-5 to Gillingham, 0-6 to Man City and then lost 0-1 at home to Preston in consecutive games on the bounce. Kurt Nogan scored the winner for Preston. Taylor got all five for Gillingham and Goater got a hat trick for City.

distortiondave is another missing from that era (don't think he was a youngster though) didn't he used to seek help with his crossword from you

It was a two-way thing, dom. We helped each other distortion was only in his 20's, I think. I miss him on here because I enjoyed his 'distorted' sense of humour.

I thought as much but I was giving you credit for finishing them alone, but yeah he was quite funny and dry.

Cheers and yeh I know haha. I just sit back and laugh at the majority of those that moan on here as there attempts at trolling genuine users has started to get boring and repetitive as well as being too easy to spot.

How Many Contributors Are Under the Age of 25?

That one is a thinker.

Apparently you're as old as the woman you feel. So I'm 42.
