Yeah I appreciate that, I realise that this season you have only played twice on the crown this season, but its more the fact that both teams plus the stanley under 18's have played considerably more than that over the last few years. How the pitch is now has been contributed to by over use not this season but in seasons previous, without the necessary funds being made available to do the much needed repairs each close season. This isn't burnleys fault, that lies at the feet of the cardboard one again i'm afraid. Combine this with the almost freakish weather we've had over the last 6 months and ta da!! We have opened accy open air swimming baths!!!

To be fair dave I think you're absolutely right and its not only the burnley fans that would like to play someone different. I haven't been to the burnley friendly for a few years now, I just don't see the point of watching football, whilst wondering if its gonna kick off between a few 'so called' burnley and rovers fans. It just spoils the experience for me.
