Cryptic tweet on Twitter

[Claret Till I Die]

It would appear that it's not just, to quote Roy Keane, "the FAI who couldn't run a P1ss up in a brewery"

[Selby Claret]

oh the irony...

Is that the genuine name of the JPG file.....?

[colner]

Well that was a let down,cant see much uptake for that

[Burnley1989]

Seems a decent enough offer, I really don't see the point in moaning about it if its not of interest to you.

I wouldn't purchase it, its not my thing but I can see it being appealing to some.

[ŽižkovClaret]

They really need to learn that not everything merits a big announcement

[DCWat]

Sounds like the Foundation (is that still a thing?) without a members bar.

Meh!

[CrosspoolClarets]

The issue I see with the trendy 'B' branding is the number of clubs beginning with B which is probably the most numerous of all letters. Just in the Premier League we have Brentford, Brighton and Bournemouth. In the EFL we even have two as two of our main local rivals along with a load of others. The key with a brand is to identify it and if someone was walking through London, New York or Shanghai nobody would have a clue who it referred to. The only clue is the colour scheme but that isn't enough.

I like the JJ Watt hats and bought two. I won't be buying any B ones though (assuming that is the limited edition hat referred to in the membership of course).

£100 to charity says it will sell well?

Not all fans are as negative as some on here

[gawthorpe_view]

Is this the announcement? Another membership scheme

Replied to the wrong post.

[Claret Till I Die]

I'm not sure who has come up with this idea but they really do need to understand football isn't about razzmatazz

[Row x]

Is the badge being changed?
Or another 24hrs complaining about something that never happened

[The Shire Claret]

Good Idea for people that like this kind of thing

If you don't like it , you don't have to buy it

But £25 for some Mum's and Dad's to be able to say to their kid that their name is on the tunnel when the players walk out will be priceless to some ...

UTC

[daveisaclaret]

It's fine like. It should have been obvious to anyone that if they had anything interesting to announce they would have just done it without a delay. And seems a pretty good offer for kids to be fair. But a bit tacky really.

Tell that to the kids, the ones who it's aimed at, they'll lap it up

Us older ones not so much so, but if it makes money for the club, I'm all for it

[Claret Till I Die]

If it's aimed at the kids why sell adult versions? I'm all for the junior Clarets etc and always made sure that my kids were involved

[The Shire Claret]

Reality is they are trying to make money whilst trying to maybe get people who cant afford to come to the matches

the reality also is that if they didn't do an adult one - people would complain

Damned if you do - Damned if you don't

Remember remember the 12th of September.

Because there are adults who will buy it?

[GetIntoEm]

Well that's a good surprise. Well done Burnley.

I like it

I'll add it to the Xmas lists

[agreenwood]

Good job nobody got really angry about the badge.

What a waste of energy that would have been.

[TheFamilyCat]

I can only hope every announcement from now prominently features the 'B'.

[GetIntoEm]

Hopefully the hat is a B one tho. I've wanted one of those

That’s exactly what I did - it is working now but it wasn’t

Yes, I named it and it was a typo

[ClaretTony]

I could be wrong, but there seemed to be far less complaining about a complete change of badge under Kilby in 2010 than the monochrome change under the current owners (not just on here I hasten to add, social media too).

Shouldn’t have been done in 2010 without some consultation. A Flood decision I believe.

Got to move with the times, to grow, we have to market the club and "razzamataz" sells! I'm all for it as long as we are successful on the pitch and plenty of money is continually invested back into the playing staff

it would be more fair if they did it on the pitch at half time

I didn’t say that at all. I said I’d made my point and wasn’t going to get into an argument with you. So I suggest you read rather than post that crap. WOW.

It wasn't an argument you clown it was a disccusion on a discussion board, but you clearly can't handle anybody questioning you

I’m a clown now am I? I’ll refrain from posting what I think of you but you must be as thick as two short planks to post these comments. You clearly haven’t read the thread.

The owners of this club/business do not need to ask you, me or the rest of us what they want to do with the badge, crest style, the colour of the kit or the name of the ground and so on, they own it not us they've no need to consult us at all like what you suggested earlier in this thread, if they want to call us yankie doodle Burnley next season make the players wear a stars and stripes kit whilst playing football at the Quarter pounder stadium they can and they don't need your permission

[louieollie]

The cryptic "B" tweet just gave fuel to those that have an agenda with the board/club/chairman etc ...........it's just pathetic! from supposed adults !

That's fair enough. But any supporters of any other club in the country would feel aggrieved if the badge was changed without any heads up, consultation or polling. Really surprises me how many Burnley fans just aren't arsed about a significant part of the club changing. People have one crest tattooed on their calves and no-one's bothered it was changed overnight. Just seems odd to me.

As for the membership/super fan scheme - proper tacky. Same sort of people who'd pay to get a tick against their name on X.

[agreenwood]

The club haven’t changed the badge lads.

[mikeS]

Is the hat part of the membership deal? £60.
I guess the colour options are ok and at least it's not got MAGA on the front.

How little you know. I’d some research if I were you, would prevent you making a fool of yourself.

Meh!

The Foundation has nothing to offer now other than a raffle. All the benefits have been taken away bit by bit in recent times including the club shop discount and the members bar.
You will get a letter telling you that you have won a scratch card if you are lucky

Not agreeing with the tone of the post in any way, but he/she is correct that owners can do what they want, however unpopular that is. Was it Cardiffs owners who changed the kit etc?. Mk Dons is another example of what owners can do

Fortunately our owners haven't gone down those routes

[Bordeauxclaret]

I’m sure some people support the team but they seem to hate the club with a passion now.

Sad and rather pathetic to see.

We’ve moved on. Cardiff were forced to switch back to blue, MK was against rules then but they got away with it although they wouldn’t now. The owners of Hull tried to change the club name. Moshiri changed to Everton badge but was eventually forced to back track.

Owners cannot do as they like and once the regulator is in place it will be much more difficult for them.
