I'll be in touch - you will have to wait until I come back down to earth

Would you say that in April or May if they still haven’t scored again? How long do they get? It's not April or May and I wouldn't expect them to be in the team then if they still hadn't scored again. I don't think Jay Rod is fully fit to be honest so for me it is very much the correct decision to p...

I really can't get my head round the two words Stockport and culture

ClaretTony

In fairness CT, that really isn't saying much when you glance at the "goals for" column. Especially as those 2 have been on the field roughly 98% of the time! No it isn't saying much but I believe Wood is always the more likely to score. I think Barnes could cause them some problem at the back with...

You'd have played 2 non-scoring strikers?

No - I wouldn't have played 2 non-scoring strikers. I'd have gone with the only strikers who have scored a Premier League goal for us this season.

ClaretTony

Kay was already at Everton when the ban came - he never played again. One England cap with more to come.

In that case take a look at this. Superb TV and great price. Obviously depends on your budget and what screen size you want. https://www.richersounds.com/tv-projectors/all-tvs/panasonic-tx55hz980b.html You won't believe this but that is one of the recommendations I'm looking at and the most likely ...

ClaretTony

For once, it's the team I went with in the match preview and the one I'd have selected if everyone is fit. Really good to have Charlie back and Dwight in front of him. At some point we need them back playing like they were last season.

Was he any good ?

In the youth squad at Burnley in the 1960s and went on to be a decent non-league footballer

Did you see my comment under the appearances photo? I’m not saying I’m right but it does seem to fit. To be honest I don’t even know if Dicken was a keeper.

Looks like Tyrie to me

Swan, Kay and Layne - not a firm of local solicitors!

Bronco Layne came back as well but didn't make any impact. But Swan and Kay were exceptional players in a very good Sheffield Wednesday team.

ClaretTony

I knew we'd never paid out anything north of £400 so I checked a couple of days ago. The highest it has ever been previously was when it reached £300 towards the end of the 2014/15 season. Danny Ings' goal at Hull on 9th May won it for bpgburn.

ClaretTony

Former Sheffield Wednesday and England centre half Peter Swan has passed away at 84. An outstanding player, but for other matters I'm sure he would have lined up alongside Bobby Moore in the England World Cup team of 1966 but those other matters saw him jailed and banned from football for life, one ...

I think he's playing for Great Harwood at the time this was taken. I once used it in an article years ago but asked him if it was OK before I did. He said yes because he reckoned he looked hard on it.

Any ideas who it is?

With regards to the 3rd keeper. We had a young lad, who played for the Scotland Youth team, called Matt Tyrie. He may well be the guy on the photo (?) but could well be before his time with us. CT may know...... I think that's a good spot claretfern - I think it's Tyrie on the far right of the back...

So they have had 2 meet ups and we haven't won on either of them.. can you stop these events

Or have them on non match weekends

Unbelievable but heartbreaking night - when I think of it now I think of Robbie. He was absolutely sensational.

Thanks, CT--although you could have broken it to me gently.

I was amazed when I saw the name but her brother & dad both married into our family. The last time I saw her was at a family event in 1991.

Not a good pic but this stunned me last night. It had rained just about all day and then about half an hour before this pic was taken it started to snow.

Can’t find him in Clarets Chronicles but I seem to remember the name. Was a Gaskell at Man U I think

Billy Gaskell never played in the first team at Burnley. He was involved with Colne Dynamoes afterwards.

I'm back looking and have spoken to someone at Richer Sounds

And whatever happened to Margaret Mcnamara who married an American millionaire?

I can actually answer that. She died in a road accident a good number of years ago.

I went out to put something in the bin and it was raining. Looks out 30 mins later and everything was white.

McGarty never played in our first team.

Can someone explain why City's goal wasn't given offside? How can Rodri not be interfering with play when he sets the goal up? Was miles offside.

I’m not sure it’s possible for anyone to explain it. Whoever was on duty at Stockley Park got it wrong.

If Amazon counts as televised then so do they I'd say.

Amazon is part of the PL deal but that’s not of interest for this purpose. I’ll include them. Each match listed will show whether it was BBC/Sky/BT etc so I’ll just reference FA Player and the one used for the League Cup.

ClaretTony

Was selected for live broadcast, via stream, just like Amazon games. Granted it didn’t have all the paraphernalia surrounding it, and the website was dire but it was still available. I'd agree with that. The only difference being I can watch Amazon streams on my TV but the cup ties I had to sit at ...

ClaretTony

I'm just completing the list of our live televised fixtures - it was ready during last season's shut down but I never got round to getting it live on site. But a question: Would you consider the three League Cup games that were streamed and the FA Cup tie v MK on FA Player as being televised? Should...

It would guess this photo call is for the 1964/65 season (?) Jimmy Adamson's last as a player.....

I think you are correct. It can't be any later - we switched to white socks in 1965/66 but both Johnny Price and David Walker are on the photograph and both left us at the end of the 1964/65 season.
