Jordan North

TheFamilyCat · Post by **TheFamilyCat** » Tue Feb 22, 2022 6:53 pm

Jordan North is rowing from London to Burnley for Comic Relief.

Good on him for taking on the challenge, and especially so for finishing up in Burnley.

I wonder if he'll use the toll road.

bobinho · Post by **bobinho** » Tue Feb 22, 2022 7:16 pm

Met him tother week whilst i was out having a pint or two...

Don't listen to him on the radio (i'm a gent of a certain age) but I thought he came across really well on the tellybox on that jungle thingy. Spoke very well about the town, and about the club of course.

Anyway, i thought he was a cracking lad when i met him. Great thing he's doing this. Well done lad.

Never listened to him on the radio but he does seem like a very likeable guy whenever I hear him.

100 miles? Have they moved Burnley 130 miles south?

No. They have moved London 130 miles north... they were fed up of being soft southern shandy drinking `geezers`.

Now they are soft midlander shandy drinking brummies but with marginally better accents...

Jordan North is a fantastic promoter for our club. Alistair Campbell on the other hand...

Alistair Campbell is just as big a claret as any of us . Why do so many on here bring their politics into it .

Nothing to do with politics for me. He did a interview once at turf moor and said something I massively disagreed with.

When someone’s ‘politics’ results in mass bloodshed I think we have every right to not want the spin doctor plastered everywhere by the club

Well done Jordan a real asset for promoting the club and the town.

bobinho · Post by **bobinho** » Tue Feb 22, 2022 9:13 pm

Yes he is a real asset. Seems to be universally liked too, I certainly found him easy to like.

Saw him on good morning Britain and that knob jockey Richard Madeley kept say Beeernley trying to be funny,rude or he is as p1ssed as his wife first thing.
Well done Jordan, top bloke regardless of who he supports or where he is from.

Completed his 100 mile row from London today, raised over £500k. Top effort, well done Jordan.

Well done Jordan ... you're a star lad without a doubt

beddie · Post by **beddie** » Fri Mar 04, 2022 7:50 pm

Brilliant that. I know he had an awful day yesterday and must have been almost at breaking point so we’ll done Jordan for finding that bit extra and completing it. Wouldn’t it be good if we could get a win tomorrow, it would finish his week off nicely. I hope he’s at the game.

Roosterbooster · Post by **Roosterbooster** » Sat Mar 05, 2022 8:13 am

I'm a big fan of Jordan. I'm not sure anyone who has met him has a bad word to say about him.

Yet the BBC website still cant spell Burnley correctly. It's rather insulting I think

Guitargeorge · Post by **Guitargeorge** » Sat Mar 05, 2022 8:30 am

Burnley, Barnsley Burnely
It is rather confusing for these lovies old chap.
Especially if they’ve been listening to our chant on the matches

Quickenthetempo · Post by **Quickenthetempo** » Sat Mar 05, 2022 9:06 am

Burnley's little superstar.

Quite a crowd welcomed him home yesterday to say the time he was due wasn't very well publicised.

I read one family gave up waiting after 2 hours waiting around Hapton I think for him.

Madeley is an absolute tool. Full on smarmy git,who you would just love to punch!! Can’t believe he still gets a gig on tv. Spent too many years hanging out of fat Judys’ arse.

Billy Balfour · Post by **Billy Balfour** » Sat Mar 05, 2022 11:12 am

I don't think I've ever seen him on TV for more than a couple of minutes without switching TV channels. Anyhow, well done, Jordan.

They can't spell 'after' either so you shouldn't get too offended.

Heard through the grapevine that he’s a big Burnley supporter.

AlargeClaret · Post by **AlargeClaret** » Sat Mar 05, 2022 12:31 pm

Seems a decent enough bloke and can’t deny him cashing his name in , in such a fickle industry . Though he’s becoming a bit of a “professional” Burnley fan , not unlike people from Yorkshire who can’t help bringing it up every time they speak .

Vintage Claret · Post by **Vintage Claret** » Sat Mar 05, 2022 12:59 pm

Just happened across GMB yesterday in a segment where they were interviewing Jordan.

They were asking him about a call he'd received from Sean Dyche wishing him well etc and his face lit up and he was genuinely thrilled and excited that "The Gaffer, Burnley's most successful manager ever" had rang him

Don't watch 'Celebrity' or listen to him on the radio but JN does come across as a sound guy.

Well done that man and a great effort for charity

wilks_bfc · Post by **wilks_bfc** » Sat Mar 05, 2022 4:01 pm

Great welcome for him at half time, just a shame those of us in the JM stand couldn’t hear a word of his interview due to the PA not working in the stand

Loyalclaret · Post by **Loyalclaret** » Sat Mar 05, 2022 7:50 pm

Couldn't work out where he was being interviewed? Looked around from the Cricketfield bit didn't spot him!

In front of the disabled stand on BL & JM corner

Why it was shown on the screens is another mystery

Cheshireclaret · Post by **Cheshireclaret** » Sat Mar 05, 2022 7:53 pm

Lovely to see him at the Turf - not entirely sure why they couldn’t interview him in the centre circle or on the halfway line so people could see where he was. I’d also love to know what he was saying - the PA System either wasn’t working or isn’t for for purpose in the JMU.

Loyalclaret · Post by **Loyalclaret** » Sat Mar 05, 2022 7:53 pm

Oh yes, the screens. The new, superb screens. That spent more time advertising and showing us the game we were watching (on a 3 second delay) than they did anything like lineups. It really is just a joke.

And right, whilst we’re at it - where the fornication is Exit A in the cricket field stand

It's either the door in the side of the stand, in the corner next to the Bob Lord Stand, or it's the entrance/exit where there is a handful of seats not allocated to away fans in the away end. Who is that area used for nowadays?

He still gets on telly because he’s Partridge-esque in almost every single way, except the comedy.

An absolute weapon.

Do you sit in the JM?

All we could hear was “noise” coming from the speakers in the other stands

Couldn’t make out anything that was said

Yes... It just sounded like he sat on the microphone whilst being interviewed. You literally couldn't make out a thing

It was shown on the concourses. Top marks to Jordan North for his efforts this week. Couldn’t hear what was being said, but I guess most of us could write that interview. Loads of smiling kids and great positivity for the club.

If it was shown on the concourse then why wasn’t it on the big screen (not that we’d have been able to hear it)

I’m still not sure why they found it necessary to show the match on the screen whilst we were watching it. Think they only showed the lineups once and that was towards the end of the game.

Maybe one CTU can answer

I'm currently rewatching the game, and exit A is in the side of the stand, marked 'accessible exit A'.

A great advert for Burnley and the Clarets. Pity he ended up the worst pub (if that's what it is ) in the whole of Burnley - then again the canal doesn't run past the beer huis.

Which is the pub? The Dyche is a dive but people go there on the way to the game.

Do you think he was at the Inn on the Wharf? Which still wasn't the worst pub in Burnley
