FORM GUIDE

BURNLEY 21  PNE 10

Burnley is a town in Lancashire, England. Its unparished area contains 190 buildings that are recorded in the National Heritage List for England as designated listed buildings. Of these, one is listed at Grade I, the highest of the three grades, three are at Grade II*, the middle grade, and the others are at Grade II, the lowest grade.

Burnley was originally a market town, having been granted the right to hold a market from 1294, and it was surrounded by farmland. Much of this changed with the arrival of the Industrial Revolution. The Leeds and Liverpool Canal came to the town from Leeds in 1796, continuing west in 1801, finally connecting to Liverpool in 1816 and the town then developed into a major cotton town. Its population rose from about 4,000 in 1801 to over 97,000 a century later. During the second half of the 19th century it became "one of the most important cotton-weaving towns in the world".[1] The number of looms in the town rose from 9,000 in 1850 to 79,000 in 1900, and more large mills were built in the early years of the 20th century.[1]

In 1974 the borough of Burnley was established, which included the town of Burnley and surrounding towns, villages and countryside. Many of the outlying areas continued to be civil parishes, but the town of Burnley itself is unparished. This list contains the listed buildings in the unparished area of Burnley. The listed buildings in the outlying civil parishes are included in separate lists.

The listing buildings in the unparished area of Burnley reflect its history. Most of the oldest buildings originated as farmhouses or farm buildings, and also include the parish church, the country house Towneley Hall, and structures associated with these. Later there are structures associated with the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, and with the East Lancashire Railway, which arrived in the town toward the middle of the 19th century. The later buildings include industrial buildings, in particular cotton mills, together with houses for their workers, and villas for those who became wealthy at the time. There are also the buildings common to all towns, such as churches, schools, public houses, shops, banks, offices, a music hall, structures in public parks, and civic buildings.

A LOCAL



In The Dressing Room

Manager Ryan Lowe confirmed in his pre-match press conference that Ben Whiteman and Troy Parrott - who both missed the previous fixture through injury - are back in training.

Midfielder Josh Onomah, after making his debut last weekend, has been doing double sessions while he looks to build up his match fitness.

Emil Riis and Lewis Leigh remain the only absentees, with the rest of the squad available for selection for Saturday's Lancashire derby.

A Look At Our Hosts


Burnley head into the weekend’s game in a rich vein of form, having won each of their last nine Championship fixtures, and 13 of their last 14.

Having lost just twice all campaign, Vincent Kompany’s men are comfortable leaders of the division, with a seven-point gap between themselves and second place, and a 17-point cushion to third.

If they can continue on the same path, they could secure promotion back to the Premier League at the first time of asking well before the season is up.

Going Head To Head

One To Watch


Manager Vincent Kompany made the most of his Belgian connections when recruiting players for his new-look Burnley side, with Anass Zaroury just one of those who arrived from the top tier of Kompany's homeland.

Zaroury – who represented Morocco at the Qatar World Cup – moved to East Lancashire in August 2022 and made his Championship bow for the Clarets at Deepdale against PNE.

Since that point, he has really endeared himself to the Burnley faithful, having scored six and assisted three in Championship action, and the skill he has at his disposal certainly seems to get the crowd off their seats.

Match Officials

Darren Bond will be the man to referee this weekend’s Lancashire derby.

Bond has taken charge of just one PNE fixture so far this season – the home draw against Watford in August 2022 – while he has been the main official for 25 games in total this campaign.

In that time, he has shown 115 yellow cards and two reds.

LAST MATCH



We ended our cup run as the backups didn't put up much of a performance. DM made 10 changes and it showed as we didn't really look like a team. We didn't create too much through the game and succumbed to a 2nd half strike from Gomez, heading past Stockdale from a free kick. We huffed & puffed but never really looked like levelling.

THE MATCH



Next up and another big game as we head to Ipswich. The Tractor boys had been playing very well up until recently where there form has stuttered W1 D4 L1 in there last six. They have a double threat in Chaplin & Ladapo 15 & 12 goals each. They are managed by Kieran McKenna who will be hoping to beat us, Plymouth or Derby to one of the auto spots. We drew with these 2-2 at Hillsborough as we came from 0-2 down to get a point.

KATE BECKINSALE TRIBUTE PIC

https://www.hibernianfc.co.uk/

IMO we need him back in the 1st team squad asap to bolster Hibs last attempts to try and recover some positivity from a dreadful footie season ever witnessed in recent years for various reasons and not just footie related ones. Also isn't it curious that he is only non-Celtic or Rangers player to receive this award so far this season!!?

https://www.htafc.com/news/2023/february...heringham/

Sacked.

Feel sorry for him in a way because Leigh Bromby wanted a puppet. He should never have been offered it.

Even great managers like Clough and Wenger proved it is possible to lose that vital spark that made them habitual winners. Paul Cook was a lovely midfielder and he has been a very good manager, but I would contend that however long he stays in post he will NEVER get us back into the EFL.

He has become a hoarse caricature of himself, bellowing red-faced on the touchline and sending Danny Webb in to deal with the serious questions.

Our season is over. We won't go up and even we couldn't manage to go down. Now would be the ideal time to contemplate change so we can make the right choice for NEXT season. We started this season full of attacking hope and potential and are ending it with four good full backs and a lack of goal power.

I am an emotional man. Had I had a better temperament I might have been the real deal as a goalkeeper. I'd genuinely welcome your opinions. I haven't looked to see what Bob's idiots think. Salts is far more sensible and grounded than me, Dancing ran an entire business FFS and Matt can't help thinking things through. I jump to conclusions, sometimes too readily. But my thought is headhunt Leam Richardson if he's still available. What are your thoughts? Give me a kicking if you think I need it!

I recommend Stuart Basson's appreciation of Gerry Clarke on the Chesterfield website. The man had a truly powerful long-range shot on him. The crowd always urged him to "shoooot!". He scored some crackers and knew how to rattle a crossbar.

I played cricket against him a couple of times. He wasn't bad.

He also patted me on the back and said, "Well played son," or something like that, after we lost the Byron Cup Final at Saltergate. He didn't say anything the following night when I appeared in the Alma Cup Final (the Sunday League version) ...... which showed excellent judgement on his part.

He was there at the very beginning of my awareness of professional football and his passing makes me feel very old.

Thanks Gerry.

2 points for each correct scorer
Correct joker doubles your score      
Wrong joker result gives you minus 2
Correct Random Badger gives you 2 points

The random badger is used for any random prediction used once in each matchday sequence. For instance, a scorer at a particular match, the number of red cards in the matches or yellow cards or own goals or owt you want really within reason, I do need to be able to check whether it's correct or not. Please don't put stuff like....."Commentator says...."  
The joker   is played for one match in each sequence and if correct you get double points. So if you've predicted 1-0 and it finishes 2-0, you get 4 pts, but if you've predicted 2-0, that's 8 pts. But if you get it wrong, it's minus 2.
Jokers and badgers are optional. You don't have to play one if you don't want.

The prize for winning the league is one rep point.

Cup games: In the event of a draw, it's half the points if you've predicted a draw when it gets to 90 mins and the full points if it's still a draw after extra time. Half the points will be awarded for correctly predicting the winner of the match if it goes to penalties. Similarly with the badger, if your random prediction is affected by this, it'll be half the points.

Random score generator: I will be using the random score generator again for those who miss predicting, so we shouldn't get some people too far behind that after missing a couple of weeks they lose all interest, because I know it's not easy getting on here every week.
To be fair to everybody, this is going to be like, say if three people in one week miss their predictions, the first one in the table will be given all 0-0, the second one down the line will get 1-0 and the third will get 0-1 and so on, like if there's four missing the 4th will get 1-1, then 5th 2-1, 6th 1-2. and if there are so many missing, might as well pack in.
And if you miss two weeks on the trot, I'll stop until you come back on again. Not doing it for half a season like I did t'other year.  

End of season Play Offs: The one who finishes top of the league will still be champion, but after the season finishes there will be Play Offs between the top 4, with 1st v 4th and 2nd v 3rd. This will take in stuff like the EFL Play Offs, FA Cup Final, final day of Prima Donna League, European Finals etc. It will be one matchday for the semis and one for the Final. It will be the individual scores for each matchday against the allotted opponent, with some kind of tie breaker for a drawn match.

The prize for winning will be enormous. Another rep point.

Leeds manager Jesse Marsch has been sacked after less than a year in charge.

Leeds lost 1-0 at Nottingham Forest on Sunday to extend their run of Premier League games without a win to seven.

They are 17th in the table - above the relegation zone only on goal difference - and last won in the league on 5 November.

Leeds finished 17th last season after American Marsch succeeded Marcelo Bielsa in February.
