Re: A few questions
Will you be heading up to the Turf, or watching it in the pub? On the couch?
Watching it with 30 mins delay on sky+
Nugent is missing for you guys, you'll miss him won't you?
Hes class, he will be missed, how much depends on agyemangs form.
Gifton Noel-Williams had a horrid first season for us but has been excelent so far this term and is almost like a new signing, the same can be said for Dichio by all accounts- why has he suddenly come into form? Is it the new manager?
Hes definitely playing him to his strengths now.
Simon Whaley- bargain of the season?
Possibly
In recent season's you've had a poor start and then been fantastic at the end, are you doing it in reverse or is this season your time to shine start to finish?
I wish I knew, but the feelings are very positive.
What about Billy Davis, the midget whinger? Be honest- you were gutted when he left!
Yes I was, I was wrong😀
Last season's Turf Moor clash had a big build up, but the game itself was not the most entertaining 90 minutes ever. Both teams have had significant changes since then, do you expect am entrilling entertaining goal spree, or a dull 0-0?
It will not be 0-0
Speculation in the press has linked us with Chris Luketti, how would you feel if the deal went through? And what about him scoring the winner for us on Friday?
A PNE great
Some of your fans have been moaning at the lack of tickets that we've given you (despite the fact that we have given no less than PNE requested) but will you sell them all?
Not heard that one
Operateion Yellow Fever! Your all bananas are you not?
Indeed!
So other than Dichio, which players should we be looking out for? (I'm not Steve Cotterill's scout, honest)
Carlo Nash
Where are your weak spots? Where would you like to see the team improved? (I'm really not)
Definitely the kit man!
We've already heard about Simpson, but how about the rest of the backroom staff? How is the fans feeling towards them and the board/chairman?
Very positive.
What type of game can we expect you to play?
Attacking
Rivalry aside, whats your honest opinion of the Clarets?
Good to see another northern side doing well, doubts as to whether there is enough strength in depth to keep it going
What do you think of our manager (Steve Cotterill) and do you particularly rate any of our players?
Steve Cotterill is a great manager IMO
Where do you think you will finish this season?
Top half finish
Whats your score prediction?
0-2
And finally, can we see a repeat of 2000 with us both going up? That would be fantastic wouldn't it?
Perfect scenario.
Thanks, and good luck after Saturday!

Re: A few questions
Hi, how are you?
Fine thanks
Looking forward to Friday?
Definately
Will you be heading up to the Turf, or watching it in the pub? On the couch?
I'm not sure yet- there's a few of us watching the game, but not all are PNE fans
Nugent is missing for you guys, you'll miss him won't you?
Yeah, but we can and have beaten good teams without him
Gifton Noel-Williams had a horrid first season for us but has been excelent so far this term and is almost like a new signing, the same can be said for Dichio by all accounts- why has he suddenly come into form? Is it the new manager?
Simmo's said to be a better man-manager, he's helped Dichio, Paddy and Sedgwick by all accounts. I think it's also the chnge in our playing style- we're a better attacking side since Simmo came in
Simon Whaley- bargain of the season?
Well, of last season- maybe. He's been excellent for us.
In recent season's you've had a poor start and then been fantastic at the end, are you doing it in reverse or is this season your time to shine start to finish?
It's too early to tell, but I'm hoping we can sustain the form
What about Billy Davis, the midget whinger? Be honest- you were gutted when he left!
I was gutted that he wanted to leave in the first place, but disgusted that he was considering Derby and kicking up a stink about the fact that we wanted to keep him. In the end I was glad he went.
Last season's Turf Moor clash had a big build up, but the game itself was not the most entertaining 90 minutes ever. Both teams have had significant changes since then, do you expect am entrilling entertaining goal spree, or a dull 0-0?
I think it'll be scrappy, best chances coming on the break
Speculation in the press has linked us with Chris Luketti, how would you feel if the deal went through? And what about him scoring the winner for us on Friday?
I'd prefer not to play against him, but it wouldn't be the end of the world- I'd be pissed off if he scored the winner for you though
Some of your fans have been moaning at the lack of tickets that we've given you (despite the fact that we have given no less than PNE requested) but will you sell them all?
I'd hope so, but I'm not sure
Operateion Yellow Fever! Your all bananas are you not?
Yes. Yes we are. YEEEEELLOOOOOWS!
So other than Dichio, which players should we be looking out for? (I'm not Steve Cotterill's scout, honest)
Paddy if he's fit. He'll murk you. Si Whaley too.
Where are your weak spots? Where would you like to see the team improved? (I'm really not)
We could use a better left winger and a classy centre back. Though Mawene will do that for next season.
We've already heard about Simpson, but how about the rest of the backroom staff? How is the fans feeling towards them and the board/chairman?
They've largely just got their heads down and gotten on with things. There are worries about the reserves and youth team though- we can't be sure what's happening with them yet.
What type of game can we expect you to play?
I have a feeling we'll try to counter-attack with Whaley and Paddy's pace.
Rivalry aside, whats your honest opinion of the Clarets?
I think you've done very well on a small budget. Like us, but not as good
What do you think of our manager (Steve Cotterill) and do you particularly rate any of our players?
Cotterill's done very well, but I can see him leaving by the end of the season unless you follow us up. None of your squad scares me, but Kyle Lafferty (sp) looks a great prospect
Where do you think you will finish this season?
2nd, I'm being optimistic
Whats your score prediction?
2-0 to us
And finally, can we see a repeat of 2000 with us both going up? That would be fantastic wouldn't it?
It would be fun, but I'd also get a kick out of seeing you fail in the play-off final.
Thanks, and good luck after Saturday!

Re: A few questions
If we answer all of these questions it is going to end up as a long article???
For me:
I am looking forward to my annual trip to the turf, and shall be sat in the cricket field stand as ever.
Nugent is missing for you guys, you'll miss him won't you?
We have some other good strikers at PNE, and they are in form. Of course Nugent will be a miss, but I think we have the depth of squad to cope.
Gifton Noel-Williams had a horrid first season for us but has been excelent so far this term and is almost like a new signing, the same can be said for Dichio by all accounts- why has he suddenly come into form? Is it the new manager?
Dichio is playing a little further forwards this season, coupled with us delivering more crosses, this means he is in a position to score more, and in the past week he is delivering. Some credit must thus go to Simpson.
Simon Whaley- bargain of the season?
Bargain of last season certainly. However, Chilvers on a free is getting better with every game.
In recent season's you've had a poor start and then been fantastic at the end, are you doing it in reverse or is this season your time to shine start to finish?
Hopefully we are going to keep it up for the entire season this time, we are realistic though and know it is going to be tough to stay at the top
What about Billy Davis, the midget whinger? Be honest- you were gutted when he left!
Billy achieved success at PNE, of course, but he did it with some curious team selections and negative tactics that were driving attendances down. I would have been happy for him to stay, but do not want anyone at the club who is not interested in PNE, once he said he wanted out I was happy for him to get that wish (and us the compensation).
Last season's Turf Moor clash had a big build up, but the game itself was not the most entertaining 90 minutes ever. Both teams have had significant changes since then, do you expect am entrilling entertaining goal spree, or a dull 0-0?
It will be a tough game Friday, always is, and in that regard I do not expect 90 minutes of fast flowing football. However, we have the ability to play, and even last year showed the required moments of brilliance, and will be looking to pass it around and through.
Speculation in the press has linked us with Chris Luketti, how would you feel if the deal went through? And what about him scoring the winner for us on Friday?
Lucketti was getting past his best at PNE last season, he reads the game well but is slow, I much preferred the Mawene Davis partnership. He may score the winner, that would be typical, but of course he has to sign first.
Some of your fans have been moaning at the lack of tickets that we've given you (despite the fact that we have given no less than PNE requested) but will you sell them all?
Difficult to say whether we can sell all our tickets, Friday night and on telly will affect attendances from both sides I would imagine.
Operateion Yellow Fever! Your all bananas are you not?
We have an active fans group, CAST, who work tirelessly on ideas for away games, and Operation Yellow Fever is just another example from an award winning partnership between supporters and the club. I think the atmosphere should be great either way.
So other than Dichio, which players should we be looking out for? (I'm not Steve Cotterill's scout, honest)
Whaley will cause trouble, Sedgwick is a revelation in central midfield, the centre backs are forming a solid partnership and of course there is the ever green Graham Alexander.
Where are your weak spots? Where would you like to see the team improved? (I'm really not)
We lack creativity at times, and can be exposed defensively when teams opt to take the chance on leaving our wingers forward. We have one of the best defensive records and are currently scoring a fair few. The team is generally strong at the moment.
We've already heard about Simpson, but how about the rest of the backroom staff? How is the fans feeling towards them and the board/chairman?
Simpson came in only to see Billy Davies take all of the backroom staff to Derby in a less than friendly way. He and the board have coped well with replacing the traitors and have the supporters onside as a result of their actions and (most importantly) the teams success.
What type of game can we expect you to play?
We will be solid, but will look to play through Whaley and Pugh on the wings. Also expect us to play to the strengths of Dichio and later Agyemang as the Burnley defence tires.
Rivalry aside, whats your honest opinion of the Clarets?
Can not fault their achievements this season, especially with the small squad. Part of me would like to see a PNE, Burnley 1 2 in the league (As long as it is that way round). However, I fear that as injuries kick in it could be a stretch too far for the Clarets.
What do you think of our manager (Steve Cotterill) and do you particularly rate any of our players?
Steve Cotterill has worked wonders, and has been unlucky that between leaving Cheltenham and joining Burnley he has not been able to show his talents. Against Norwich the Burnley team looked very capable, but I would not like to single out any players.
Where do you think you will finish this season?
I think we could keep up our current position, but expect WBA and Birmingham to come on strong and for us to slide a little. Play-Offs are a real possibility for PNE.
Whats your score prediction?
1-1
And finally, can we see a repeat of 2000 with us both going up? That would be fantastic wouldn't it?
It would be great to get all of the old Lancashire derby games in the Premier League, so lets hope for 1. PNE 2. Burnley
Thanks, and good luck after Saturday!

Re: A few questions
I hate to say this but i don't mind Burnley i think they are a proud Lnacashire club and seeing lancashire is shrinking all the time you can't say that about many clubs in lancashire these days apart from ourselves that is.
Mt little girl was mascot last time we played at Burnley and they were great with us. Also It would be great to see Burnley, Blackburn, Bolton, and Preston North End all in the top flight how fanstastic would that be?
As for the match this Friday to be honest i think Nugent not playing is a big big big ,loss to us and for that reason alone i don't fancy us. apart rom Dichio the other front lads might bottle it Brett is still a bit nervous about turing and flying in to the tackle and Paddy aint right yet either. So i think we will struggle to score and the best we can hope for is a draw but we are capable of getting that as Burnley don't score many either. But even if we get beat i still fancy us to march on regardless.
So there you have it, i don't mind Burnley i think they have a fanstatic young Manager same as us and i think they will be to strong for us this Friday but saying that i still fancy us to finish above them come the end of the season but losing Nugent is a major blow to us and i think that will cost us any chnace of victory. But seeing i am the world worse tipster then you might as well put your money on a 2-0 Pretson win LOL

Re: A few questions
Hi, how are you?
Handsome
Looking forward to Friday?
Of course
Will you be heading up to the Turf, or watching it in the pub? On the couch?
In the cricket field stand
Nugent is missing for you guys, you'll miss him won't you?
Dont be too sure inspite of what Surf says
Gifton Noel-Williams had a horrid first season for us but has been excelent so far this term and is almost like a new signing, the same can be said for Dichio by all accounts- why has he suddenly come into form? Is it the new manager?
Work ethic is king with Simpson
Simon Whaley- bargain of the season?
Will IMO be bigger than Nugent
In recent season's you've had a poor start and then been fantastic at the end, are you doing it in reverse or is this season your time to shine start to finish?
Too early to tell - points on the board is a big advantage - I take WBA to win league
What about Billy Davis, the midget whinger? Be honest- you were gutted when he left!
NO - absolute selfish bastard
Last season's Turf Moor clash had a big build up, but the game itself was not the most entertaining 90 minutes ever. Both teams have had significant changes since then, do you expect am entrilling entertaining goal spree, or a dull 0-0?
1-1
Speculation in the press has linked us with Chris Luketti, how would you feel if the deal went through? And what about him scoring the winner for us on Friday?
Lucketti is awful slow now - experience yes , pace no
Some of your fans have been moaning at the lack of tickets that we've given you (despite the fact that we have given no less than PNE requested) but will you sell them all?
Expect between 2500 -3000
So other than Dichio, which players should we be looking out for? (I'm not Steve Cotterill's scout, honest)
Whaley, Pugh and Ormerod
Where are your weak spots? Where would you like to see the team improved? (I'm really not)
Beer and loose women
We've already heard about Simpson, but how about the rest of the backroom staff? How is the fans feeling towards them and the board/chairman?
I rate Simmo highly - uneasy piece with the board but I personally think Shaw is doing a great job
.
What type of game can we expect you to play?
Football - sorry, in your face attacking game
I think you've done very well on a small budget. Like us, but not as good
What do you think of our manager (Steve Cotterill) and do you particularly rate any of our players?
Cotterill's done very well, but I can see him leaving by the end of the season
Burnley have a very solid squad with no real stars but it is a bit on the small side
Where do you think you will finish this season?
Pissed up in Plymouth if we get promoted !!!
Whats your score prediction?
1-1
And finally, can we see a repeat of 2000 with us both going up? That would be fantastic wouldn't it?
Absolutely brilliant
Thanks, and good luck after Saturday!
You too - dont you mean Friday !!!!!

Last season's Turf Moor clash had a big build up, but the game itself was not the most entertaining 90 minutes ever. Both teams have had significant changes since then, do you expect am entrilling entertaining goal spree, or a dull 0-0?
1-1
Speculation in the press has linked us with Chris Luketti, how would you feel if the deal went through? And what about him scoring the winner for us on Friday?
Lucketti is awful slow now - experience yes , pace no
Some of your fans have been moaning at the lack of tickets that we've given you (despite the fact that we have given no less than PNE requested) but will you sell them all?
Expect between 2500 -3000
So other than Dichio, which players should we be looking out for? (I'm not Steve Cotterill's scout, honest)
Whaley, Pugh and Ormerod
Where are your weak spots? Where would you like to see the team improved? (I'm really not)
Beer and loose women
We've already heard about Simpson, but how about the rest of the backroom staff? How is the fans feeling towards them and the board/chairman?
I rate Simmo highly - uneasy piece with the board but I personally think Shaw is doing a great job
.
What type of game can we expect you to play?
Football - sorry, in your face attacking game
I think you've done very well on a small budget. Like us, but not as good
What do you think of our manager (Steve Cotterill) and do you particularly rate any of our players?
Cotterill's done very well, but I can see him leaving by the end of the season
Burnley have a very solid squad with no real stars but it is a bit on the small side
Where do you think you will finish this season?
Pissed up in Plymouth if we get promoted !!!
Whats your score prediction?
1-1
And finally, can we see a repeat of 2000 with us both going up? That would be fantastic wouldn't it?
Absolutely brilliant
Thanks, and good luck after Saturday!
You too - dont you mean Friday !!!!!
Re: A few questions
Hi, how are you?
fine and dandy
Looking forward to Friday?
Ohh Yes
Will you be heading up to the Turf, or watching it in the pub? On the couch?
At the mo not too sure however last year was great
Nugent is missing for you guys, you'll miss him won't you?
No i don't think so, he's a fantastic player however we have already proved we can win without him
Gifton Noel-Williams had a horrid first season for us but has been excelent so far this term and is almost like a new signing, the same can be said for Dichio by all accounts- why has he suddenly come into form? Is it the new manager?
I think Simpson has had quite a lot to do with it. Also I think now he's scored and gained a little confident he will be looking to get on the score sheet this season
Simon Whaley- bargain of the season?
Great player has the potential to be superb better than Nugent
In recent season's you've had a poor start and then been fantastic at the end, are you doing it in reverse or is this season your time to shine start to finish?
I'd be very suprised if we had a downward spiral in the second half of the season were playing some great football under a new and fresh manager
What about Billy Davis, the midget whinger? Be honest- you were gutted when he left!
When i heard that Davis was talking to Charlton i was gutted but after what has gone on over the close season good ridance. He took us as far as he could
Last season's Turf Moor clash had a big build up, but the game itself was not the most entertaining 90 minutes ever. Both teams have had significant changes since then, do you expect am entrilling entertaining goal spree, or a dull 0-0?
Its always a big build up from a PNE fans perpestive last year was great for us its always a big match regardless of either positions in the league 1-2 to us
Speculation in the press has linked us with Chris Luketti, how would you feel if the deal went through? And what about him scoring the winner for us on Friday?He's all yours not what were looking now, too slow I doubt he'll be at the Turf on Friday but if he is good luck to him
Some of your fans have been moaning at the lack of tickets that we've given you (despite the fact that we have given no less than PNE requested) but will you sell them all? Not heard that think its B*****s
Operateion Yellow Fever! Your all bananas are you not?
[COLOR="blue"]Better to be a banana than a Tangerine!! LOLSo other than Dichio, which players should we be looking out for? (I'm not Steve Cotterill's scout, honest)
The other 10 LOL
Where are your weak spots? Where would you like to see the team improved? (I'm really not)
I tend to drink too much !!
We've already heard about Simpson, but how about the rest of the backroom staff? How is the fans feeling towards them and the board/chairman?
Things are looking good, Fantastic manager, Degsy's handling of the Davis fiasco was good. Happy as at the mo!
What type of game can we expect you to play?
defo attacking
Rivalry aside, whats your honest opinion of the Clarets?
Its one of the first fixtures i look for when the come out
What do you think of our manager (Steve Cotterill) and do you particularly rate any of our players? Good manager think Gray was a great siging for you
Where do you think you will finish this season?
Top 6
Whats your score prediction?
1-2 to us
And finally, can we see a repeat of 2000 with us both going up? That would be fantastic wouldn't it?
Yeah defo local derbies are what makes football such a great game!!

Re: A few questions
Hi, how are you?
Not bad, got a bit of an upset tummy. Think I ate too many sweets at work this afternoon, but thanks for asking.
Looking forward to Friday?
I always look forward to Friday.
Will you be heading up to the Turf, or watching it in the pub? On the couch?
Not decided yet. Do you promise not to shout nasty things at me if I walk down your streets.
Nugent is missing for you guys, you'll miss him won't you?
Don't worry we have a cunning plan involving beards and wigs.
Gifton Noel-Williams had a horrid first season for us but has been excelent so far this term and is almost like a new signing, the same can be said for Dichio by all accounts- why has he suddenly come into form? Is it the new manager?
The thought of been transferred to Brighton played a big part. He likes his hi-energy tunes, but not enough to go to a town full of batty boys.
Simon Whaley- bargain of the season?
We signed him last season but I catch your drift.
In recent season's you've had a poor start and then been fantastic at the end, are you doing it in reverse or is this season your time to shine start to finish?
Hopefully we will shine till the finish. So long as we don't have the Play-Offs again, I hate those dreaded blighters.
What about Billy Davis, the midget whinger? Be honest- you were gutted when he left!
Good riddance to the little squirt. Quickly beginning to come clear that we underachieved under the Scottish turd.
Last season's Turf Moor clash had a big build up, but the game itself was not the most entertaining 90 minutes ever. Both teams have had significant changes since then, do you expect am entrilling entertaining goal spree, or a dull 0-0?
Last season's Turf Moor clash is one of the best ever visits I've had. Mr Nugent seriously took the piss with his volley and Mr Preston North End rounded off a perfect afternoon with a coolly taken penalty. As they say at Deepdale 'That's Entertainment'!
Speculation in the press has linked us with Chris Luketti, how would you feel if the deal went through? And what about him scoring the winner for us on Friday?
Lord Lucan popping up at the back stick riding on Shergar has more chance of scoring for you. Chris might look daft, but nobody is that daft.
Some of your fans have been moaning at the lack of tickets that we've given you (despite the fact that we have given no less than PNE requested) but will you sell them all?
It's on the gogglebox. That will account for some of the fans but I still reckon we will bring more than you brought to our yard last year.

Watch out for St. Ledger. He's mates with world famous stars from Emmerdale you know! But you know all about Emmerdale don't you.
Where are your weak spots? Where would you like to see the team improved? (I'm really not)
The team needs to be able to replace the god that is McKenna if he ever gets injured. Without him we are nothing in the current system.

Dennis Booth has neglected his supermarket chain to look after the lads. Billy Barr is no longer in Viz magazine. The new physio is not a fat twat, that's all really.
What type of game can we expect you to play?
Sudoku.
Rivalry aside, whats your honest opinion of the Clarets?
You've got 11 very good championship players, you need to keep them all fit and happy for 75 per cent of the season to have a chance at the top six.
What do you think of our manager (Steve Cotterill) and do you particularly rate any of our players?
Cotterill reminds me of Graham Taylor. If he sticks with you long enough I think he'll take you to the Prem within five years. But he's wanted by so called 'bigger clubs' in this division and is probably as like-minded as the aforementioned Scottish turd.
Where do you think you will finish this season?
Top six again.
Whats your score prediction?
2-2
And finally, can we see a repeat of 2000 with us both going up? That would be fantastic wouldn't it?
Not this time.

Yes partially down to the manager but I think the other players have learnt how to play alongside him.
What about Billy Davis, the midget whinger? Be honest- you were gutted when he left!
Nope, glad he left. After his behaviour, there was no turning back for him.

If the deal went through, I think Patrick Agyemang will fear Lucketti's pace.

All of 'em really.

Left back. And sometimes the goalie.

I hate you Hillybillies.

Cotterill is a fantastic manager. You don't deserve him. I rate Wayne Thomas and Michael Duff.

Re: A few questions
Hi, how are you?
P*ssed off and fed up (although thats all work-related!)
Looking forward to Friday?
Yep.
Will you be heading up to the Turf, or watching it in the pub? On the couch?
Watching it in the pub
Nugent is missing for you guys, you'll miss him won't you?
Hmmmm..... well he's largely been disappointing this season and has only started to perform in the last two games. We'll miss him in a sense, but we've got good back-up
Gifton Noel-Williams had a horrid first season for us but has been excelent so far this term and is almost like a new signing, the same can be said for Dichio by all accounts- why has he suddenly come into form? Is it the new manager?
I would certainly say its down to Simmo. I remember a Carlisle fan saying how good Simmo was at improving players. Simmo has instilled confidence into Dichio and has been playing him how he should be played. The same is applied to Sedgwick and Agyemang.
Simon Whaley- bargain of the season?
Hell yes! He's had his bad games, as do all players, but his all round play is absolutely fantastic and is a joy to watch down the right wing. Chips in with his fair share of goals, most of them fantastically finished.
In recent season's you've had a poor start and then been fantastic at the end, are you doing it in reverse or is this season your time to shine start to finish?
Well its our time to shine! We've started the season well, so its down to us to continue it. Although i'd accept this season as a period of transition after all the crap that happened in the summer.
What about Billy Davis, the midget whinger? Be honest- you were gutted when he left!
Well I didn't want him to leave when the Charlton job became available, but his conduct was an absolute down right disgrace. After that I just wanted him to f**k off.
Last season's Turf Moor clash had a big build up, but the game itself was not the most entertaining 90 minutes ever. Both teams have had significant changes since then, do you expect am entrilling entertaining goal spree, or a dull 0-0?
Don't think it'll be a dull 0-0. Both sides have made some quality signings since and it will be a tight game. From what i've seen on highlights, Burnley look to be more attacking minded this season, same as ourselves. I'm going for an entertaining 2-2 draw.
Speculation in the press has linked us with Chris Luketti, how would you feel if the deal went through? And what about him scoring the winner for us on Friday?
I would wish him all the best if he joined Burnley. He wasn't absolutely brilliant for us, but was committed to the cause. I'm sure you felt the same when Eyres joined PNE (although he really WAS brilliant!). If he scored the winner for you, I would feel gutted, but if he didn't celebrate much then I would respect him for it.
Some of your fans have been moaning at the lack of tickets that we've given you (despite the fact that we have given no less than PNE requested) but will you sell them all?
Its been quoted in the LEP that the club are confident of taking 3,000. Hard to say whether we will or sell ALL tickets, as of course its on Sky.
Operation Yellow Fever! Your all bananas are you not?
Yes!
So other than Dichio, which players should we be looking out for? (I'm not Steve Cotterill's scout, honest)
Whaley, Pugh (if he plays to his strengths), St Ledger, Grezza and maybe even Sedgwick!
Where are your weak spots? Where would you like to see the team improved? (I'm really not)
Left back! Matt Hill has been very poor this season and is very often outpaced. Keeps backing off too much instead of challenging. I would like Davidson to fill that role instead, instilling more pace, more experience and someone who doesn't back off.
We've already heard about Simpson, but how about the rest of the backroom staff? How is the fans feeling towards them and the board/chairman?
Well from what i've heard, Dennis Booth certainly seems a character!
As for the board and chairman, I hope they continue doing the excellent job they are doing.
What type of game can we expect you to play?
Like we've played in previous games, but I can see this being more of a battle. We'll certainly be 'going for goal' (if you catch my drift).
Rivalry aside, whats your honest opinion of the Clarets?
Well I think the reason you are playing well is all down to Cotterill. Can't really say you're a well run club due to whats happened in the past. But it would be great if we both went up to the Prem.
What do you think of our manager (Steve Cotterill) and do you particularly rate any of our players?
I think he's done a fantastic job on such a limited budget and has made some very good signings.
Where do you think you will finish this season?
I actually predicted 2nd! But I would accept just a top 10 finish.
Whats your score prediction?
2-2
And finally, can we see a repeat of 2000 with us both going up? That would be fantastic wouldn't it?
I think we could see a repeat and I hope we do! Would be great for Lancashire too.

Hmmmm..... well he's largely been disappointing this season and has only started to perform in the last two games. We'll miss him in a sense, but we've got good back-up
Gifton Noel-Williams had a horrid first season for us but has been excelent so far this term and is almost like a new signing, the same can be said for Dichio by all accounts- why has he suddenly come into form? Is it the new manager?
I would certainly say its down to Simmo. I remember a Carlisle fan saying how good Simmo was at improving players. Simmo has instilled confidence into Dichio and has been playing him how he should be played. The same is applied to Sedgwick and Agyemang.
Simon Whaley- bargain of the season?
Hell yes! He's had his bad games, as do all players, but his all round play is absolutely fantastic and is a joy to watch down the right wing. Chips in with his fair share of goals, most of them fantastically finished.
In recent season's you've had a poor start and then been fantastic at the end, are you doing it in reverse or is this season your time to shine start to finish?
Well its our time to shine! We've started the season well, so its down to us to continue it. Although i'd accept this season as a period of transition after all the crap that happened in the summer.
What about Billy Davis, the midget whinger? Be honest- you were gutted when he left!
Well I didn't want him to leave when the Charlton job became available, but his conduct was an absolute down right disgrace. After that I just wanted him to f**k off.
Last season's Turf Moor clash had a big build up, but the game itself was not the most entertaining 90 minutes ever. Both teams have had significant changes since then, do you expect am entrilling entertaining goal spree, or a dull 0-0?
Don't think it'll be a dull 0-0. Both sides have made some quality signings since and it will be a tight game. From what i've seen on highlights, Burnley look to be more attacking minded this season, same as ourselves. I'm going for an entertaining 2-2 draw.
Speculation in the press has linked us with Chris Luketti, how would you feel if the deal went through? And what about him scoring the winner for us on Friday?
I would wish him all the best if he joined Burnley. He wasn't absolutely brilliant for us, but was committed to the cause. I'm sure you felt the same when Eyres joined PNE (although he really WAS brilliant!). If he scored the winner for you, I would feel gutted, but if he didn't celebrate much then I would respect him for it.
Some of your fans have been moaning at the lack of tickets that we've given you (despite the fact that we have given no less than PNE requested) but will you sell them all?
Its been quoted in the LEP that the club are confident of taking 3,000. Hard to say whether we will or sell ALL tickets, as of course its on Sky.
Operation Yellow Fever! Your all bananas are you not?
Yes!
So other than Dichio, which players should we be looking out for? (I'm not Steve Cotterill's scout, honest)
Whaley, Pugh (if he plays to his strengths), St Ledger, Grezza and maybe even Sedgwick!
Where are your weak spots? Where would you like to see the team improved? (I'm really not)
Left back! Matt Hill has been very poor this season and is very often outpaced. Keeps backing off too much instead of challenging. I would like Davidson to fill that role instead, instilling more pace, more experience and someone who doesn't back off.
We've already heard about Simpson, but how about the rest of the backroom staff? How is the fans feeling towards them and the board/chairman?
Well from what i've heard, Dennis Booth certainly seems a character!
As for the board and chairman, I hope they continue doing the excellent job they are doing.
What type of game can we expect you to play?
Like we've played in previous games, but I can see this being more of a battle. We'll certainly be 'going for goal' (if you catch my drift).
Rivalry aside, whats your honest opinion of the Clarets?
Well I think the reason you are playing well is all down to Cotterill. Can't really say you're a well run club due to whats happened in the past. But it would be great if we both went up to the Prem.
What do you think of our manager (Steve Cotterill) and do you particularly rate any of our players?
I think he's done a fantastic job on such a limited budget and has made some very good signings.
Where do you think you will finish this season?
I actually predicted 2nd! But I would accept just a top 10 finish.
Whats your score prediction?
2-2
And finally, can we see a repeat of 2000 with us both going up? That would be fantastic wouldn't it?
I think we could see a repeat and I hope we do! Would be great for Lancashire too.
Re: A few questions
Looking forward to Friday? Yes, but more looking forward to Leeds on Tuesday as we are at home. Its not the same watching it on Sky
Will you be heading up to the Turf, or watching it in the pub? On the couch? Sky on the couch
Nugent is missing for you guys, you'll miss him won't you? We have plenty of attacking options (fingers crossed paddy is fit)
Gifton Noel-Williams had a horrid first season for us but has been excelent so far this term and is almost like a new signing, the same can be said for Dichio by all accounts- why has he suddenly come into form? Is it the new manager? definately the new manager
Simon Whaley- bargain of the season? - yes
In recent season's you've had a poor start and then been fantastic at the end, are you doing it in reverse or is this season your time to shine start to finish?
start to finish, we have had two seasons where we have done the business in the latter half of the season, now we are building on that experience.
What about Billy Davis, the midget whinger? Be honest- you were gutted when he left! to be honest, yes I was but now i realise it was a blessing in disguise, we play better football and look whwere we are in the league
Last season's Turf Moor clash had a big build up, but the game itself was not the most entertaining 90 minutes ever. Both teams have had significant changes since then, do you expect am entrilling entertaining goal spree, or a dull 0-0?
should be a good game, both teams flying high, the rivalry goes with out saying. recepie for a thrilling encounter one would think
Speculation in the press has linked us with Chris Luketti, how would you feel if the deal went through? And what about him scoring the winner for us on Friday?
Iwant him back at deepdale to be honest, and I think he wants to come back aswell so I would of thought signing for you lot would hinder his chances
Some of your fans have been moaning at the lack of tickets that we've given you (despite the fact that we have given no less than PNE requested) but will you sell them all? away day at burnley, yes I would of thought so
Operateion Yellow Fever! Your all bananas are you not? barmy army
So other than Dichio, which players should we be looking out for? (I'm not Steve Cotterill's scout, honest) all over the park we can do damage
Where are your weak spots? Where would you like to see the team improved? (I'm really not) have no real weaknesses, last season it was lacking goals, so far we have improved on that
We've already heard about Simpson, but how about the rest of the backroom staff? How is the fans feeling towards them and the board/chairman?
back room staff and everyone at the club is doing a good job, keep up the good work
What type of game can we expect you to play? attacking football
Rivalry aside, whats your honest opinion of the Clarets? inconsistent normally but have some good players
What do you think of our manager (Steve Cotterill) and do you particularly rate any of our players? good manager, good coach. you could do alot worse than him. i think andy gray is a good signing too.
Where do you think you will finish this season? 3rd
Whats your score prediction? 2-0 PNE
And finally, can we see a repeat of 2000 with us both going up? That would be fantastic wouldn't it? definately, raise the profile of lancashire clubs
Thanks, and good luck after Saturday!
