Is it an illness?

Post by RN_Claret » Mon Oct 05, 2020 10:31 am

Why do I do it? I check this site, I check the BBC Sport transfers and gossip sites, I look at Twitter every 5 minutes ... I've supported Burnley since the 70s ... I know how it works, I know how the club do (or don't) do transfer business, YET still I look, yet still I have this faint glimmer of hope .. this time, maybe this time. Sigh!

Managed to find a live stream showing the old test card that used to come on at the end of the day's tv programmes

Very exciting compared to our recruitment updates
