We didn’t arrange any, we were expecting most of our squad to be away on international duty

Tranmere is one of them because Michael Jackson said so. That was Bad and Dangerous of him of course but it won't be a Thriller.

I don’t hate his songs, but I suspect You are Not Alone with that opinion.

Not sure, the official Twitter has said it’ll be revealed soon but for now, it remains In the Closet.

Will Tarky be singing to his centre back partner "Ben, the two of us need look no more" ?

Very possibly CTID....the one thing that’s certain though is that Dyche will definitely not be singing, ‘Gibson, I Want You Back!’

Whenever it is we play Tranmere, I believe it is one of the double up games that Sean Dyche enjoys. We did two last year, one at Gawthorpe and in the last three years we've done them publicly. They were when I went to Kidderminster, Macclesfield and Crewe.

Tony, what's the issue with the club announcing that we have a friendly. A friend of mine who supports Tranmere knows all about the game but our club seem reluctant for some reason to advertise the fact we are playing?

They have just this minute announced them - Shrewsbury and Tranmere today.

I thought they were today but I wasn't certain. I did know who they were against but I got the info from Shrewsbury and Tranmere, not Burnley.

Obviously we only know regards our club, but i cant imagine other clubs being so secretive and reluctant to share such basic news.
Sometimes we find out about other teams young players arriving or ours going out on loan through other clubs announcing it before us.
We seem quite good media wise with the comms cams and other bits done for social media, however some basic info that would be nice to know seems top secret.
