" I was quickly to work and I think it is the first time I’ve ever published a signing article from my seat in the stand."

Are you tapped into the clubs WIFI signal? I can't get enough of a signal to check the score at other games nevermind post an article

Unfortunately not, but for once I was able to get it done at half time but it was slow.

indeed, we're some way from being able to order popcorn from our seats. Play stopped work for me - started the game with conference calls fully booked all the way through. By halfway through the first half they were all cancelled due to the "fire drill" I needed to deal with... :)

It is definitely rest time this evening - will probably miss most of the Newcastle v QPR game asleep in front of the TV :D

All worth it though

Good read CT and you echo my feelings with
"because what’s happening right now at our football club is way beyond anything I could have imagined not too long ago."

I have still got a grin from ear to ear. This is either because I am remembering the atmosphere last night or because I am in the Palace Bar in Dublin drinking Guinness and toasting our Irish Trio. Maybe a bit of both!

A stirring report and wholly accurate. It took me 6 hours to get to the match and rained continuously until I was back in my bed. despite that, it was a privilege to be a witness and ingredient to a great night, under the lights of Turf Moor. Crowd were great and the team special.

Had a KFC before I set off for home and sat in my car feeling very good about the whole experience.

So proud to be a Claret at this time. I have now followed the Mighty Clarets from the very top, to the precipice of oblivion and back again for real. Every experience remains a privilege.

We used to be able to order half time pies from our phones - those were the days.

Been in town this afternoon, everywhere I went people seemed to be talking about yesterday, either the signings or the game.

It was a wonderful evening both in terms of atmosphere and quality of our play. One image that will remain with me was Morgan near the James Hargreaves touchline at about 80 minutes struggling for breath having been run ragged.

Agreed, I'm normally a half-empty kind of person but like most Claret's fans under a certain age this is the best I've ever seen us in terms of style of play, league position and pride in our incredible manager and team.

Up The Clarets!!!!
