His headstone was removed but due to the way he was buried it wouldnt be possible to remove him. So the grave is now unmarked.

Ah, ok…………

theroux was groomed like many a victim and when faced with this notion on the follow up show he (theroux) totally rejected the idea. i see some people still put flowers on savile's grave as well which just goes to show his powers of manipulation have followed him into death. Didn’t the funeral dire...

He will have learnt from the best, whoever was getting him professional football contracts must have been a genius

Yep, wish I’d had a scout spot me when playing (briefly) for Read Utd……….but all credit to SB for making a fab career post football.

:P I still think we’ll be ok, just……we are playing premier league style football, rather than side to side hoof…………confidence could be an issue given even the CFS emptied, but we just need to beat those clubs in the bottom 6………. It’s a long haul and hope everyone keeps behind this young team…… And I...

Steve Blatherwick……….ah them were the days…….

Blatherwicks now running a successful football agency………

Not the most personable chap over the years but even so whenever you saw any type of documentary about his life’s she was clearly a rock for him ……….he’ll be devastated.

A sad day for their family.

Other teams are much better than Luton.

Prayer is what we need.

Honestly…….why do you bother……..

Best League probably in the world……….a complete refresh of our strategy……….whilst not scoring for fun, compared to stuff we’ve watched for years……

And you think we need prayers……

Ffs.

On Darren's linkedin page he states 'I am a reliable, focused and driven individual. I set myself high personal and professional standards and expect the same from those I work with.' :lol: My ex- line manager has on his LinkedIn page “inspiring, innovating, empowering…….” How do they dream up such...

I think the team had made their mind up on the coach to the ground ,VK’s seems great at bringing subs on but doesn’t seem to react to what the other manager does Koleosho started really brightly ,but Howe but 2 men on him and nullified his threat ,so we should have had a spare man somewhere but we ...

Does it go in straight lines?

Jimmymaccer

And appreciate planning etc but it’s like us, yes an investment in a new stadium, but if it were still in town ……..would be amazing.

Jimmymaccer

New stadiums, new facilities etc…………couldn’t they have built a new stadium on Goodison?

I saw that yesterday and great to see the club and town getting the positive headlines they deserve……..

Jimmymaccer

Spot on CT…………

Appreciate Manure were garb by their standards, but our football has moved on a million miles………..

Jimmymaccer

So many positives tonight, the back 5 looked like they had an understanding of each other tonight, Ramsey excellent before his legs went. Tresor has a touch of class but had to improve his focus. The one issue I have with tonight is how easy we made it for the uniteds back 5, Evans at 36 year old d...

What a depressing write off of a season this is already shaping up to be after the magnificent highs of last season which are slowly being expunged from the memory bank. I really don't understand what we're up to. All that money spent. Frightening times. Can't be long before we're cut adrift. 😂

All of the above………

Saturday night, lights, camera, The Turf will be bouncing…………….

It was sunny, had a few beers in town, and now I am home. B'tards got beat. Plus no home games until the 23rd September

This………..and on Wednesday I get my own international break-a week and half in Spain……..

A positive start………………………….

PS…Why aren’t you in West Yorkshire Clarets?

It’s a bit far from The Isle of Man

Jimmymaccer

Safe trip back travelling clarets- looks like a decent following on SKY……….

Worked in Leeds for about 5 years - really enjoyed it in terms of the city centre but that soddin ring road……..coming out via Headingly took ages………..but then it was “foot down” via Ilkley and the A59!!

I think the Cricket Field Stand have a song about VAR……………

Jimmymaccer

Let’s be fair, he did say we only had one £100m player in our team!!! That aside as others say let’s keep in perspective and the reality is to avoid relegation……..hopefully Luton take 1 spot, Everton get whacked re FFP points deduction………..and given the changes in personnel this team will get better...

Jimmymaccer

Dyche should always be respected but yeah, that last season………..

Will he still be there in December so we can say our formal goodbye!!!???

Jimmymaccer

Couldn’t believe I missed that night thru being away with work………..my son had gone on and texted me as the goals went in, and essentially to say oh dear, Giftons on……………….

The rest……..

Is history!!!

Met him out in Austria pre season - seemed a great guy…………

I'm in Ramsey, but not really a "group" kinda person.

That’s why you live in Ramsey!

I’ve a mate who lives in Maughold who lost touch with the human race a few years ago!

There’s a few Clarets here on The Isle of Man but nothing formal. Jaks bar on the prom in Douglas shows all Prem league matches live as well as the usual SKY/BT so when the Clarets are playing there’s usually plenty Burnley folk in there…….. Along with the usual Manx who think they’re scousers/Manur...

I got back to The Stork pub in Read that day after the match to see Blatherwick sat at the bar with a friend who lived in the village………… Said he’d never experienced anything like it as a pro footballer being told to get changed, leave and never play for this club again………(in slightly more dramatic ...

Why do some fans always embarrass us when the world is watching.

Not a criticism of your comment, but why should they embarrass us ever?

Appreciate all the comments about “educating” but there are times when, no………..it’s just unacceptable.

Jimmymaccer

I don’t get why it’s so bad?

We can all see it as it happens………..

You rarely see the same, if any similar mistakes in rugby or cricket……..

It’s almost like a cricketer dropping a catch, but the umpire dismissing the batsman and Hawkeye saying nothing…….

Jimmymaccer

Good on ‘em……….nowhere near at their best, well done the Lionesses ……..

Jimmymaccer

Yep, pre season……..all good……..

They’ll be back in on Monday at Gawthorpe fit and ready to go…….no way VK won’t already have his plan.

Friday……bring it on!

Burnley Prem Inn is a fab place to stay for matches and the staff there look after you really well………

Enjoy!!!

Jimmymaccer

Stopping the game for cramp has pist me off forever. It is the result of a tired body and if the opposition have made you work that hard they deserve the advantage. Unless it’s in your heart nobody is going to die. Never seen a keeper get cramp………..until Mr Tom Heaton got us over the line at Stoke!...

Jimmymaccer

Westy was on an easyjet flight to Malaga last year with his family………really approachable and happy to chat about the Clarets and our chances of staying up………..

A good guy all round……..

Played for Rovers as well if I remember right, sure he was a right back or full back back then !!

Late 70’s he was at Rovers………around the time of Simon Garner, Noel Brotherston, Glen Keeley, Tony Parkes……………..and when Terry Cochrane scored that cracker at Ewood!!!

When we played Chelsea in the league cup a few years ago I went on the coach from Turf Moor with my kids, it was a big thing and a great occasion for a couple of lads who had only seen us in the lower leagues (both had/have had season ticket since 6 hrs old).

Burnley Wakes week, long time since I ever heard mention of that. Hard to believe now that virtually everyone in town had their hols at the same time. As it happens, this year they are only a week late, it would have started last Saturday, 8th July. Does “Wakes week” still happen in any form? Sadly...
