RammyClaret61

Ramsbottom Crusaders. Played in the Ramsbottom Youth league. But included teams from Crawshawbooth and Stacksteads. Only ever won one medal, finishing runners up in 1972 I think, could've been 74. Only scored two goals, I did always play full back.

Paper round first up for Fred Mitchell ex- Bacup wicketkeepers newsagents in Ramsbottom. Home for breakfast. Watch some tv, Swap shop. Then get ready for football. If at home we'd meet down Rammy Park about 10. After the game, home for a bath, change and wait for my lift to the Turf if Clarets at ho...

Flanagan was our man of match according to FotMob!!!!

RammyClaret61

Shocking from the BBC too. I could actually see what was happening on the pitch. Not pretty at all. We could hardly see what was going on, or not as it turned out. The picture quality was poor. No idea who the commentator was, but he and his "expert" John Gregory wanted a Lincoln win from minute one.

RammyClaret61

From very poor tv coverage by ESPN. Heaton - 6 not much to do. Darikwa - 6 thought he did well Keane - 6 Tarkowski - 5 Flanagan - 3 omg awful Arfield - 3 Barton - 5 Westwood - 3 was he playing? Never heard his name Boyd - 6 Gray - 4 first touch is woeful Vokes - 4 not Barnes - 5 should've come on ea...

A horrendous Gazza injury

Gazza should've been sent off in that game. Was it Rodger Milford the ref who bottled it because he was on a stretcher?

RammyClaret61

Also Chelsea v Dirty Leeds. The replay was fierce!!

My first FA Cup tie live was Burnley v Huddersfield in 72. Lost 0-1.

Never been to a final.

I'll use the word "transitional" for this season. But in the long term I think it will be good. Two divisions with relegation and promotion will also be interesting. My one worry is that players of clubs relegated will want transfers to clubs still in division one. I think it would be a good idea to...

The graphic for Brady's goal is completely wrong. It was never that straight!!

RammyClaret61

Back of the Bob Lord is looking very tired, lick of paint and a sandblast maybe.

RammyClaret61

A minimum of 3 pts from the games at Hull, Swansea & Sunderland. 3 draws would be far better than one win and two losses. In saying that, 3 wins would be marvellous. UTC.

RammyClaret61

Burnley v Lincoln City. Home
Huddersfield Town v Manchester City. Draw
Middlesbrough v Oxford United. Home
Millwall v Leicester City. Draw
Wolverhampton Wanderers v Chelsea. Away
Fulham v Tottenham Hotspur. Away
Blackburn Rovers v Manchester United. Away
Sutton United v Arsenal. Away

24 yellows

RammyClaret61

If we can just avoid defeat in those 3 crucial away games, therefore keeping the points gap similar, the best we can. Then we'll enter April in a reasonable position. Of course any win would be a major bonus. I think Palace will struggle, they have the top six to play yet, and of course ourselves. I...

I thought it was the blokes that wrote the No Nay Never fanzine that organised it?

Melbourne City in the A-League will be without 7 first team players this weekend. Five players reached 5 yellow cards last week, one was sent off last week and goalkeeper suspended for racial abuse of Besart Berisha.

Was wondering if this was some kind of record?

RammyClaret61

With me getting a "home" draw in both rounds, I'm thinking the travel my be getting to my opponents

We have stupid clappers. Those who clap all the way through songs that shouldn't have clapping. Sean Dyche claret & Blue army: clap clap clap clap. Not all the time. Same with "we are the longside, burnley"

RammyClaret61

I have to admit that I bought one when I went to Anfield for our league game 2 years ago. It was for a friend of mine here who follows both us and Liverpool.

RammyClaret61

Leicester
Bournemouth
Middlesbrough

If Leicester went down that would be funny. Middlesbrough for the many reasons above.
Bournemouth because?? Well I don't really don't know.

RammyClaret61

A player must be cautioned for:
climbing onto a perimeter fence
gesturing in a provocative, derisory or inflammatory way
covering the head or face with a mask or other similar item
removing the shirt or covering the head with the shirt

I'm thinking not a booking.

DAVETHEVICAR, did MDWat give you enough tickets for your away tie? I know how upset you Lincolnites get on the subject

They also have a "Vicar" in their ranks now!!

RammyClaret61

That's cheating, that's just a picture of Jamie Vardy!!

RammyClaret61

Another factor is that all the bottom six have to play each other once more. Except Palace & Swansea.

Now that's just lazy!!

I've had many dealings with Dave Baldwin over the last couple of years. I must say he's a great bloke to deal with. A great asset to our club.

RammyClaret61

Was that Oldham game the 3-3 when replayed?

RammyClaret61

What was your first AWAY game following the Clarets?

Mine was Boxing Day 1970 at Blackpool. A 1-1 draw. I was 9 at the time, I think we went in the South stand paddock, but not sure.

Where do you get 'proper' HP?

Coles & Woolworths sell the squeezey bottle version. If you prefer the glass bottle then the British shop.

UTC is now the norm. Completely forgotten about the other place.

Well done to everyone involved in the set up of UTC. Also a big thank you for your promotion of our own Melbourne Clarets. It as also facilitated meet ups with Clarets that have visited our city.

Happy birthday to all in volved.

always liked Portman Rd. walking distance ftom town centre and station, and a proper football ground.

"Are we just a bit more savvy"

That itself makes a massive improvement.

Always liked going to Hereford. Lots of pubs around. Also Brentford & Gillingham.

Nearer to home, Bury.

After 40 years with a season ticket I up't sticks and moved to Australia. Miss the Turf every single matchday, and awaydays. Then when the derby of 2014 at Deadwood came along, a post was put on CM. "did any Clarets in Melbourne want to meet up for the game?" Six of us turned up, 2 ex-pats, 2 Aussie...

Agree with you on the Aussie sports fan. Even the media are against "new" sports growing in their areas. Here is AFL territory. Last season Melbourne Storm rugby league got to the Grand final, but you'd never know with the press coverage, or lack of. But if a rugby league player gets in trouble, it'...

Why would anyone give their support to a franchise? In the US, the San Diego Chargers of 56 years have just uped sticks and moved to LA. Completely sh1tting on fans that have supported them for a lifetime. Here in Australia all sports are franchise based except Sheffield shield cricket. In the A-Lea...

Yep. Miss it tremendously. Been here 6 years now, only been home once so far. Been hot this week, temp in the 30's. Miss matchdays mostly, but we've a good thing going here with Melbourne Clarets. Just over 30 of us in and around Melbourne. We'll be in the pub Sunday morning for the game, about 15 o...

Just by looking at the names. You can work out the played. You can workout Comstive, Britton, Oghani.

I live in the same city as Mike Conroy.

Programme from the tour to Russia. The Burnley team is a bit out of date. Worked out it's the 88 Wembley squad.

Had coffee with Mike Conroy last week, took this to show him. He was amazed to see it.

Happy Birthday Tony. And hopefully we can raise a glass to celebrate 3 more points from Sunday's game v Southampton!!

"Top flight football".
Maybe they think the further down the fixed odds coupon or pools you drop. You end up in the Scottish top flight!!!
