Fixtures list has been far from taxing over the past 8 matches, but a reality check coming up against a top half team aiming to sneak past Tottenham into 5th place. I expect more of the same against Tottenham even though they are not reaching the heights shown earlier in the season. That’s all the ...

David Williams was in goal in the next round when we conceded six.

Was he? Frying pan into fire.

Yeah Chris Pearce was certainly very good that night. He was regarded as a bit of a clown at the club, but he was certainly loved by the younger supporters. Loved probably because of his dancing and general clowning around. Absolutely outstanding that day at Bradford City - not so much in the next ...

I know, a work friend who support's Huddersfield told me this morning, I didn't believe him at first but it's true and like you say amazing stat.

Shame Brooks is on VAR. He has shown recently that he is better as the main ref than covering the VAR role.

He definitely has in our games

1-1 at half time - both Fleetwood and Hull have lost so a draw or win would move us up to fifth

ClaretTony

No idea who scored for us - our club don't appear to be covering this game, that's the last three or four.

1-1 as Leisure says after going in front but Richardson has just hit the bar with an effort from 40 yards

I’ve always had emails from them if anything was being changed or cancelled although unlike the OP I’ve always found them good to deal with.

I’d like to see a pie chart to compare the cost to the club of few morons behaving badly and the interest on the loans taken out and secured against Burnley Fc assets

Why did I misread that and see the name of a religious sect rather than morons?

Two days ago Worcestershire's left arm spinner took three wickets in a second team game but he didn't turn up for the third day's play yesterday. He was subsequently found in his flat by a friend having passed away at the age of 20.

What sad news.

I'm told that Taffy's funeral will be held in Swansea on Friday, 17th May.

I'm still stunned that he's no longer with us.

Not many left now from those two great teams

Just Bob Seith & Alex Elder from our 1959/60 title team and I think maybe just Cliff Jones & Terry Dyson, the other two wingers, for Spurs.

I seem to remember him unfairly challenging Adam Blacklaw in our FA Cup tie at WHL. He soon found himself on the floor followed by remarks about his diminutive stature resembling that of a jockey !!

Just a shame so many missed out on tickets because the club took a stupid allocation.

Lowest turnout of Burnley fans for a Premier League game there. I’ve understood some of the lower allocations we’ve taken recently but baffled with this one. More so with the number of non Clarets in there.

I was at Littleborough where we were battered by Enfield. Our deputy pro Tom Rogers played more like Ted Rogers. Things can only get better. And as for cold cricket grounds I give you The Pollards home of Oldham CC. Played there in the late Seventies and it snowed. Our pro that year Franklyn Stephe...

Thank you Tony.

This must have been mentioned but I haven't seen it:

When was the last time we were awarded a penalty at OT prior to Saturday?

We got two at the Stretford End in 1973/74, both converted by Taffy. I can't think of one since.

Great report. That 2 1 defeat in the Cup back in the 60s obviously hurt you as much as it did me! First visit - Law and Crerand in the last six minutes with Best running round with one boot in his hand setting up the goals. And then I waited, and waited and waited to see us win there. That 2-0 win ...
