So all being well my beloved Clarets will be in the Premiership next season. My Son, Nathan has asked for season tickets for next season, but that would mean putting Gul's respray off until 2015. Can't do both, so what should I do?
Errrr, respray obviously. and get Sky so your boy can watch Burnley lose on telly. Hang on, Burnley in the Prem????????
Thanks for that, and I will now show my wife that you agreed with me. We've had season tickets before, and we started to miss games for various reasons, so wasted money in effect. Are you a Norwich fan joi?
Car or football.....car wins mate simples
I'm with Graham here, unless someone throws in an odd shaped ball, to make the decision harder :buttkick:
Who's gunner by the winner out of this tho mark
As a Blackburn fan I think you know the "correct" answer to your question! ;)
[QUOTE=The Flying Moose;699117]As a Blackburn fan I think you know the "correct" answer to your question! ;)[/QUOTE] Gul re-spray it is then, which is definitely my preferred option. Bit more than the season ticket though.............
heres my logic on it. spend money on a square bit of tin with 4 wheels. or spend quality time with your son. they will always be a car in your life but spending time with your son is much more important if you ask me. its a no brainer. family first then the car. always this order

Nathan gradually lost interest cos of X Box issues, and we missed several games.

Do the prep work on the car yourself with your son, then take him to the spray shop with you ;) Oh who am I kidding...
[QUOTE=The Flying Moose;699134]Simple then! Do the prep work on the car yourself with your son, then take him to the spray shop with you ;) Oh who am I kidding...[/QUOTE] Now there is an idea. Most of the cost is in the prep work, so Nathan and me do as much as poss of that. Just need a couple of front wings now..................
[QUOTE=foammanmark;699138]Now there is an idea. Most of the cost is in the prep work, so Nathan and me do as much as poss of that. Just need a couple of front wings now..................[/QUOTE] is it that bad that it needs a full respray. what you looking at for a full shoot. i can get a cracking job done for around 1k. if it was my car getting done id want the doors wings and bumpers removed then paint the shell then the doors boot bonnet bumper and wings. thats me though. im very fussy
Which one will you enjoy more? :) Personally I liked the idea of you two doing the prep work together and visiting the body shop. He'll remember that and learn some stuff too. You can still go to some of the matches maybe? Got to admit I'm not a big fan of football though
Gul respray! Footballers have enough cash! And its an investment in the Gul.
Id get the season ticket, Burnley will only be in the prem for one season so you might as well enjoy it, just look at the Cardiff/Palace fans this year... Enjoying the ride, your car will still be there next year.
I agree with neal, you never know how long they'll be there or when they'll next be in the prem. .......although, after yesterdays result against leicester ;) ;), you still need a few points to be certain.
id get the respray mate,its gonna be painfull watching burnley in the premier league.....trust me I know what im talking about I support west ham lol
[QUOTE=foammanmark;699059]Are you a Norwich fan joi?[/QUOTE] Yep. getting a bit twitchy now
Respray fella As a Cardiff can this is the first year in 23 yrs I haven't got my session ticket and it's because we are in the prem Much more fun in championship and much better away days
get the respray mate, and bring it down to were i work. we will do a proper job for you:)
Same here mate watching Portsmouth. Had a cracking time watching them win the championship lots of away days. As soon in the Premier League whipping boys not so much fun.

Enjoy while it lasts
[QUOTE=no1tosh;699511]get the respray mate, and bring it down to were i work. we will do a proper job for you:)[/QUOTE] Talk to me Sir!! I'm not bothered distance wise where it goes for the proper job. Give me some details please, and I'll get in touch. She's off the road until week after Easter as the MOT expired last week, but she has plenty of tax on her.
[QUOTE=siamblue;699527]Same here mate watching Portsmouth. Had a cracking time watching them win the championship lots of away days. As soon in the Premier League whipping boys not so much fun.[/QUOTE] If we do go up, then we will no doubt be next season's 'whipping boys'.
So it looks like we're going to do it the difficult way, which doesn't surprise me at all. If we won today, and Derby didn't win, then Burnley were promoted. Guess what, we lost and Derby won. Surely, we can't give an 11 point lead away which is now down to 8, can we?

[QUOTE=no1tosh;703109]no problems mate, the body shop is in bury, it's called martin brearleys on millet street opposite the nissan/toyota dealer. ill get you the proper address and phone number tommorrow, i cant remember it lol.[/QUOTE] Thanks, and I await to hear from you. If you want to see the car, then that can be arranged sometime soon'ish(just out of MOT, and I'm not sure when I'm sorting her). I will also need some work on my C70 at some stage as well.
ya no probs pal if getting it over is a problem i can always come to you and take some pics of where it needs atention ect.. and pass them on to my boss
[QUOTE=no1tosh;703153]ya no probs pal if getting it over is a problem i can always come to you and take some pics of where it needs atention ect.. and pass them on to my boss[/QUOTE] It's a full respray that we're looking at, unfortunately for me............ The C70 is just the lower parts of the doors/rear quarters upto the plastic side trims. She's had a fairly poor respray in the past I was told by the previous owner.
Get it resprayed as being the whipping boys wont be nice
Especially when you come to the ethiad lol
[QUOTE=abdul;703493]Especially when you come to the ethiad lol[/QUOTE] No worries there Abdul, and we'll just do 'a Wigan' on you.
So Burnley won promotion, and I've resisted buying season thickets so far. That's £700 in the re-spray fund, so a great start.
[QUOTE=foammanmark;708937]So Burnley won promotion, and I've resisted buying season thickets so far. That's £700 in the re-spray fund, so a great start.[/QUOTE] Good choice
[QUOTE=abdul;708960]Good choice[/QUOTE] Just £1,800 or so to find now.................
Did u get intouch with notosh abt price for a respray
[QUOTE=abdul;708966]Did u get intouch with notosh abt price for a respray[/QUOTE] I'm seeing him tomorrow about his alarm/keyfob issue, but I will be in the C70. As soon as Gul is MOT'd , then she's down to tosh's for the re-spray quotation...............

[QUOTE=foammanmark;708971]Of course I can. Just stone chips Abdul?[/QUOTE] Yes stone chips
Now if you supported Blackburn you could have both.... They probably cant give the things away, unless there is an upsurge in scarf wearing chicken spotting.
[QUOTE=Loadsamiles;708974]Now if you supported Blackburn you could have both.... They probably cant give the things away, unless there is an upsurge in scarf wearing chicken spotting.[/QUOTE] Looking at your avatar, and you must be Sir Drivealot. Are you from Blackburn joi?
[QUOTE=Loadsamiles;708974]Now if you supported Blackburn you could have both.... They probably cant give the things away, unless there is an upsurge in scarf wearing chicken spotting.[/QUOTE] You've been talking to me about shimming on T5D5.
I was from Blackburn... LOL Brought up there. The place is a pile of crap these days, although I was there last weekend catching up with folks and picking up the V70R from Tim that has just had the 2.5 stripped out and replaced as it split the liner repair (was already split and repaired before when Ben had it but the repair only held for 40,000 miles). It's just had a shimmed 2.4 block fitted so I never need to worry about that again. Now I'm in Lisbon for the summer... It's cheaper to live here, and in no way compares to Blackburn at all.
