Burnley Reserves at FES
 
Nothing on the official site, so may not be happening (even though it is), but Burnley are to play their reserves games at the FES next season.

Burnley haven't officially confirmed it either but apparently one of our coaches let it slip on radio last night.

Doesn't make sense to me if Stanley reserves and Burnley reserves are both going to help wear the pitch out, can only assume there is a few quid in it for Stanley ?

Not again! The last time Burnley's reserves used our pitch for the season, our reserves were unable to play their fixtures at our ground as it would've meant too many games being played on it.

Terrible news, if true. Why don't Burnley want to play their reserve games at Turf Moor? Oh - is it to save their pitch then?:(

Why is this bad news??

There will be an additional 11 matches; so an additional 11 occasions to increase revenue for ASFC.

Who takes the money from the socal club??? ASFC

It also gives us the opportunity to get closer ties with a Championship club.:)

They don't use Turf Moor because of infrastructure type reasons. Why use a stadium that hold 22,000 people for a crowd of 300???? To satisfy THEIR safety certificate they will need stewards,supervisors,ball boys, St. Johns, car park attendants, doctors, gate men, office staff; the list goes on.

They come to the FES and due to the compact nature of our ground; 90%less staff.

Why do all the bigger clubs use alternitive grounds???? Because it costs a fortune to open a large stadium. Bury at Radcliffe, Rochdale at Rossendale, Tranmere @ Vauxhall, Blackburn @ Morecambe, Bolton@ Leyland, Blackpool @ Fleetwood, need I go on???

Oh and there's also a small matter of a friendly on the 14th of July.

Please leave the running of the club in the hands of the experts;)

Does that mean Stanley Season Ticket Holders will get on for free to watch Burnley Reserves? Give something back to the fans as well as another possible incentive for buying a season ticket!;)

It would be too expensive. Land with planning permission is worth a small fortune.

pretty much non-league grounds? will Morecambe still be hosting Rovers?




I don't particularly like the idea of it and it is true that we stopped playing extra games onit due to the unnecessary wear and tear on the pitch. But if it puts money in then .....
