Olympiakos charged by UEFA

[Aclaret]

I reckon Olympiacos getting charged for minimal offences is just a smokescreen, a cover up of what actually happened at HT.
If they get a small fine justice will be seen to be done.
UEFA corrupt as ever. They would rather have a big club progress to group stages than little Burnley, and at HT we were looking like we could do it.

We could pump itching powder into their changing room; turn off the hot taps; change the light bulbs to dim; blow cold air into there; pump white noise to subtly disturb their minds.

All of which wouldn’t be very British would it...?

Let’s beat them fair and square, beat them with spirit and hard work, show them that we don’t need to stoop to their levels to win, let’s show Lancashire passion and desire from the terraces, let’s show them how we do things and wipe the smugness of their faces, we’re still in it and we can win, with belief we WILL win.

We do need to register a formal complaint though, their behaviour should not be permitted. Who knows what he threatened the ref with in there.

[claret wizard]

They'll be time wasting from kick off, diving, rolling around like they've been shot, cheating and generally winding everyone up. They've been doing this for years. We should open up their training session the night before to home fans.......

[Steve-Harpers-perm]

Should speak to Gus Poyet he was good at leaving presents in the opposition changing rooms.

Of course the gods had nothing to do with it...

Now I'm watching MOTD, I decide to go on the computer, I go to photoshop and I scroll down the list of images and come across an image that I don't remember what it is and when I click on it, it's one of my drawings over Olympiacos 2 United 0.

That is true...

Anyway... WE GOT AN AWAY GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No I'm not on drugs.

... And folk wonder why I'm freaked out. This kind of stuff is my daily life!

The date on the computer of the drawing scan (whatever) is 1 March 2014, for what it's worth.

Vizeh is a student who seems to be able to find shed loads of cash... Mummy, Daddy my phone is not the latest, "don't worry son - and here is some more cash on top of that - we know how poor students are..........."

Hahahah shut up. He lives entirely off his money from YouTube you prat. He’s also a nice guy and a normal Burnley fan like all of us. Forget the comments about his parents, he lost his mum when he was younger and has done a lot of work fundraising for charity in her memory.

[Blackrod]

Whilst it was a stupid thing to hold up a Panathanaikos flag I'm sure he will realise this on reflection and with an older head probably wouldn't have done it. Having said that the bloke is using his iniative to do something creative whilst promoting his club. If you don't like it don't watch it. I don't know him but maybe just lay off the bloke.

Agreed. He does seem to have plenty of cash!

[bobinho]

He’s no different to any other young lad. He will make daft decisions from time to time. This flag incident is one of em. Trick is being smart enough to learn from them. The concerning thing is not realising at the time that it’s a bad call.

We’ve all done daft stuff.

[IanMcL]

Added to the torrential downpour we are all praying for, we should have the sprinklers on full, throughout the match!

The match programme should be Burnley v Cheats!
Their team line up should be printed Cheat 1, Cheat 2, Cheat 3 etc.

[Pstotto]

Players' coach all round Stoops Estate and Stoneyholme before getting to the stadium in a roundabout way (let's hope so!)

A bit of 'Pendle Witch' stuff might do the trick.

[Blackrod]

We should also sing :
Who ate all the pies
Who ate all the pies
Fat Marinakis
Cheat Marinakis
You ate all the pies

[Pstotto]

... And now he's effing squared?

For some reason, Besiktas sing 'Sex on the Beach' at them in English.

[ClaretGent]

Lancs telegraph saying owner entered the refs room at half time to vent his frustration while 3 of our players watching had to be moved after being spat at.

Has anything happened with this? Has it been reported elsewhere, or was it just an unsubstantiated rumour in the Lancashire Telegraph?

[scouseclaret]

It was apparently originally reported in the Mail, but UEFA won’t do anything as it wasn’t in the referee’s report. To be fair, if you were the ref and a 20 stone Greek gangster came into your room and said something like “if you want to see you wife and kids again, make sure we win this game,” you probably wouldn’t report it either.

[ClaretGent]

Cheers Scouse.

Just read that Wikipedia article. Recently charged with trafficking 2.1 tonnes of heroin too

[scouseclaret]

Yeah, don’t worry about that, or the bribery, intimidation and match fixing, he’s still a “fit and proper” person - the FA said so.

[IanMcL]

Ref definitely intimidated by something he said. Given the drug charge, it was probably a game changer....

Lock him up in Bob Lord's cupboard!

[IanMcL]

Should at least have security on the refs door to keep him out!
