My best mates son moving from belfast to Perth today is there a contact for him to meet up when the season starts. Thanks in advance

I guess that depends on which Perth he is moving to.

Australia

Not that I am aware off any more. There used to be a group of us about fifteen years ago or so and i still see an occasional Burnley shirt at Perth Glory games. You are welcome to contact me offline.

Try the Brass Monkey in Northbridge

It's pretty spread out over here. North to South (Yanchep to Mandurah) is around 75 miles (Burnley to Stoke?)
You do see quite a few Burnley shirts around the place though. If he's central, I reckon starting at the casino for a game or 2 he'd meet a few. When he finds somewhere to live maybe post again in here.

I once stayed in the Northbridge hotel, interesting place.

When he arrives, he’ll feel at home - it’s chucking it down. Where is he going to be based, as others have said, it’s very geographically spread. I’m north of the river.

The casino is a good shout when there is a game on! That’s how I met some fellow clarets when I lived there…Carbon sports bar has a massive screen!

There was definitely a Perth Clarets back in the late 90s and early 2000s. The two I recall being involved were Eddie & Jean. I met the latter on one visit to England, a memorable night even though the amount of drink consumed prevents me remembering too much about it.

Good memory Tony. I was part of the group along with Jean and Eddie. We had many memorable social nights, some even in the Brass Monkey. Sadly no one appears to be in touch any more.

I bet they were memorable nights with Jean and her red wine

You got it in one!

Thanks for you replies, Heis staying in the Freemantle area.

Does your parents/inlaws go to Reid Wright and co? The wife works there and said after the Boro game a couple came in with their young grandkid wearing a Burnley shirt. He was happy as Larry when the wife asked him about getting promoted.
