OK, so we lost and won't be challenging for the Carling Cup, but what a performance and what heart.
Burnley FC and everyone involved there should be so proud of what they achieved in almost arctic conditions on Wednesday night.
It was freezing cold, raining, and your extremities were numb, but you forgot all that as you watched YOUR team playing with pride , team spirit, commitment, and heart.
In 30 plus years of watching Burnley, on Wednesday night I knew why I did...
Here is a report from a 16 year old who was there....written from the heart by Ben Redman.
And here is another report fromTony Scholes.

OK...
Right - let's get this show on the road!
What are the resolutions for this year...
Well, lose weight...so to that end I an attempting NOT to buy any processed meals - you know, the 5 for £4 type! They might be easy, but can't be good for you.
I'm a member of Slimming World, and so far have nearly lost 1 and a half stone, so that's they way forward this year. To get to target, and to cook from scratch as far as possible.
Well....10 minutes to cook some pasta, and bung in some mushrooms and onions and tomatoes and ham is hardly time consuming (shame I'm not a great fan of pasta....!! )
Cheaper too.
MAKE MORE BEARS!!!
This year I turn 55 in November - the age at which my mother died, so it will be a poignant birthday. My elder siblings are in their late 60s (although they'd hate me to mention it!!)...so I'm good for a few more years I reckon., but I will make the most of every day the best of my ability.
So that's another 2 resolutions I guess.
Get fit...I've rejoined the local gym and have a fitness program mapped out.
Oh yes....keep a blog up to date!!!
I think that's enough to be going on with. More may be decided later....who says they have to start on January the first anyway?
And of course I will be following the fortunes of Burnley Football Club....UP THE CLARETS!!
