Assume you mean a loss will eliminate us not a draw ? Line 4

And if anyone is going and in need of an early lunch I can recommend "Chocks Away" which is situated on the aerodome with views across the runway. You have to go through a security barrier but just tell them where you're going and they let you in. You might even see one of the "Belugas" which are used to fly the Airbus wings from Broughton to France.

I'm unable to go today because of the short notice on venue but I've seen Burnley teams play there twice, the u18s in Jan 2006 against Chester and the reserves in 2011 against Wrexham. The pic I used was from the first visit when I thought the aircraft was going to take out the goalkeeper at one point.

Someone needs to explain group tables to whoever writes the academy stuff for the club. In their preview for the game, they wrote: "Wrexham sit 4th in the five-team table after beating Preston and losing to Accrington Stanley. The Welsh outfit are the only team that can prevent Burnley winning the group but would need to win on Tuesday and their final game."

Given that Accrington were top of the group at the time of writing, I don't think they quite understood. Had we lost today, given the goal differences, it would have very likely been Accy going through.
