Only if you can make it as far as the gate whilst still in possession of your wallet. :tic01:

A bit late to influence anyone whether to go or not, but you should. But be very careful. Burnley fans can be extremeley aggressive and unpredictable. Something to do with inbreeding. They are referred to as "Dingles" in many of the away fans' chants - and for good reason. In their last home match against arch enemies Blackburn Rovers, Rovers laid on free coach transport to the match to protect their fans. The coaches parked end to end with no gaps between to prevent Dingles getting at them after the match. Police security was enormous. So what did the frustrated Dingle yobs do? They turned around and vented their frustration in their own town centre. Can you believe it they ransacked their own town - smashing shop windows and causing havoc.

Away fans' chants that Caley fans will be far too polite to sing include:

Small town in Blackburn - you're just a small town in Blackburn.....

Your Mum's your Dad

Your Dad's your Mum

You're interbred

You Burnley scum

Yeah 2-0 now Chris Eagles scoring.

Apparently they had a bit of trouble in there were more fans turned up for the game than tickets that had been printed so a lot of Burnley fans never got in or left before anything was sorted out. It was not a sell out or anything like that just not enough tickets were made for the game. I think a few big signings were made in the last week and the interest encouraged more fans to come than the club envisaged.

Does not sound like we are doing too well.

Said Cally are poor, that Accrington and Bradford 'had more about them'

Does anyone know what our starting line up was or who is playing now? Can only find the Burnley line up which looks like a decent team to me. Never heard of the goalkeeper before though.

Barrowman had a goal chalked off "6 yards offside" Caley are "worst pre-season opponents so far"

Updates from the match can be listened to *here* 2BR local radio down there.

Music is mince, intermittent cricket commentry but on a plus note I don't think Scotty will be barred from listening in Canada

2-1 according to Burnley message board Barrowman. Keeper mistake. Keeper subbed along with about 3 others.

burnley completely dominating and gifted us a goal

[Guest birdog]

Barrowman has had the ball in the net twice in this match against what I would imagine is a half decent defence, hopefully a good sign.
