Burnley v Brighton & Hove Albion

8th battalion East Lancs · Jan 19, 2014

I know that it's early but that's our next game.

Our lads have gone to Spain on the swill, although the official line is 'warm weather training'. We must be expecting a heatwave in Burnley in the coming week or so.

So, will your few hundred absolutely barmy fans (you have to be to do that trip for a tuesday night match) give a decent reception to Barnes?

martin tyler · Jan 19, 2014

Yes i should think he will get a clap. Likewise if he scores can not see him going mental

Pity we lost El Ab to Bristol City. If played he would have given him an even warmer reception.

He will get given the clap he so richly deserves.

Since I have you here. There seems to be some sort of bus service due to a closed train station (Pudsey?) somewhere between Burnley and Leeds. Do you know anything about this, whats the delay like, will it seriously impact my journey? Should I look to avoid it by changing trains about 6 times?

Cheers.

Erm... Port vale is our next game.

Yes there are works on Holme tunnel and the train stops at Hebden Bridge, where you have to get a bus to Burnley Manchester Rd Station.

Looking at the times it doesn't look like there is that much time added on to the journey (depending on the time of day you're travelling).

Cheers, what with it being an evening game I'm still not sure how much faith I want to place in a bus service to get me home, with all due respect to burnley I'd rather not spend the night there. I'll see how brave im feeling on the day.

That said, the temptation to tell Barnes to **** off one last time is bloody tempting :jester:

People were booing him while he was in an Albion shirt :lolol:

I'm sure there will be a cluster of tits who will do the same at your place.

P.S - were loose.

Another question to take the opportunity of a Burnley fan on here...

Which is the most secure and safe car park for Tuesday night? I've previously parked in the town centre multistorey and walked through to the ground (about 10 mins). I assume the town centre car park will be closed?

brightn'ove · Jan 20, 2014

I'll be going, it's going to be coooold

So this isn't an official match day thread? Good.

Oi Lancastrian scum..is the cricket ground open evening games?

Normally park at the cricket ground and head up to the club house for a pint, pie and chips and a game of snooker. Really welcoming place and great place to have a chat about all things footy and jimmy Anderson's form!

Cheers

I'll be surprised if he doesn't celebrate. He upset Plymouth fans when he scored against them.

Normandy seagull · Jan 20, 2014

surely the club would have made an agreement that Barnes cannot play in this one. If they haven't it should be Barber and Burke OUT, the incompetant buffons!!

I believe you can only write such an agreement into loans not sales.

Where have they gone in Spain? It's not much warmer here than UK. Just a whole lot dryer.
