Clarets Group in Football Related Post Shock!

I didn't realise but having looked at the Clarets Mad website, it seems its
10 years since they demolished the Longside.

What a tremendous decision that was. We lost a great atmosphere and gained
two white elephants - one of them still isn't finished for gawds sake, we've
spent 10 years trying to pay off the debt (and now we don't even own them),
they were designed by someone who had clearly never been to a football match
given the way that what little atmosphere is generated is funnelled up and
out of the ground. You get wet if it rains and you're in the "covered"
lower tier. Prices have trebled and I now get fined for turning up to watch
on the day.

They should demolish the Cricket Field stand and replace it with terracing.
Give the Longside to the away fans where we won't hear them if they make any
noise.

Mick
