I'm gobsmacked I really am.
Personally I blame LCC and Burnley Council for this fiasco.

Been in the 110 Club before a game many a time. For one of my mates back in the bad old days it was obligatory, '4 pints in the 110 Club before a game is the only way I can bring myself to go on and watch them'. I knew exactly what he meant.

We used to go in the Rose and Thistle club pre match and watch the racing before shooting off to the turf about 5mins before the match started late 70s early 80s..Good Times.

It does sound like something that back in the day a good fire and insurance claim couldn't have put right, maybe the insurance companies have long since got wise to that one and it's not an option any more.

I mentioned on here a couple of weeks ago mon ami, trying to negotiate safe passage either on foot or by vehicular transportation between the Mecca roundabout and Turf Moor is fraught with danger.It does sound like something that back in the day a good fire and insurance claim couldn't have put right, maybe the insurance companies have long since got wise to that one and it's not an option any more.
LCC & Burnley Council need to be held to account for this mess.

How long has this been dragging on for mon ami, I'm sure I was reading about it in summer.
