The Cricket Club is also at the right end of Turf Moor for visiting fans - probably not more than 10 minutes from finishing our pint to being in the ground. Instead of heading to the cricket club car park, we parked in a pay and display next to Tesco's for £3.50. From the outside it looked very old and a bit grubby. Giant Yorkshire pudding (not sure if that was special for the visitors), sausages, chips and mushy peas for £3.50 and a pint of Thwaites bitter for £2.50. The facilities were clean and tidy although a bit dated. We looked for some other pubs that did food but they were all packed out. Burnley had been struggling at the time but Turf Moor very often a potential slip up for any of the top six sides.The journey wasn't the easiest around rush hour down the M62 M60 etc. It is a small all seated single tiered stand, with a row of supporting pillars running across its middle and has windshields to either side. Turf Moor is a fortress, but Burnley must do it away if they want to flourish in the Premier League By Oliver Brown 21 Jan 2017, 9:45pm.

But at this stage of the season, as they say, the result is all that matters. M61 and M65 were easy.

It's only a ten minute walk away from the centre.Once arriving at the ground we had a look around the club shop. I've always wanted to go to Wembley for an FA Cup Final so I wanted us to put on a show here.We parked at Burnley Cricket Club which cost £7 but is right next to the ground. The older stands (which includes the 50 year old away end) didn't look or feel too bad for their age either - aside from the away end wooden style seats, but as with most away games we were stood up anyway.After a sticky start to the season and a big home loss at Old Trafford six days prior, our fans were right up for this, wanting the team to bounce back and getting behind the team and manager. Well worth the walk up the dodgy staircase. We didn't have a particularly large following that day, and I don't know how much noise we generated from the perspective of those in the home stands, but Turf Moor struck me as being a bit of a library. A good place to head for away supporters, especially as most away fans seemed to park here too.The ground appears nothing special from the outside. Individual food and drink prices were also cheaper than most other grounds.The coaches were lined up outside the ground and we were given a Police escort back to the M65 motorway.I loved the Turf Moor ground.

Burnley has a reputation for not being the most friendly away ground but I have never encountered any problems when watching Bournemouth (I know it's very different for local derbies!) 'Squished' is very much the word to describe this (!) Turn right at the lights into Church Street (A682). For the "old school" experience, it's a pretty good day.I was really looking forward to the game as I'd never visited Turf Moor before and Boro were looking to make it seven away wins in a row the last away defeat being at Burnley, back in April.Traveling was easy as being based North of the border, we took the train from Glasgow, changing in Preston (50 minute wait) and were in Burnley by 12.30.We followed the directions provided in the Guide, from Manchester Road Railway Station. I highly recommend the cricket club. From 1902 to 1904, the club The stadium has been used for other sports than cricket and football, including Turf Moor has been Burnley's home ground since 1883. Also, it's where the legend that is Jimmy Anderson learned his trade and as an avid cricket fan, I was excited about that! The concourses below the stand are not for the faint-hearted if your team has a large away following, as it is like a rugby scrum to get a drink. The first few rows of seats were old wooden ones painted then further up the stand there were plastic, we had a very good view of the pitch from our seats but two areas in the stand were behind two steel girders.Not the best performance from Newcastle United. The atmosphere was flat amongst the Norwich fans which was a shame considering the good acoustics that the Jimmy Fishwick stand can create. and we ended up ditching queuing up - it was all a bit chaotic, to be honest. There was a marquee near the entrance that I believe sold beer and pies, the marquee eased the congestion somewhat. So much so that the Club balcony was taken up with a number of Bolton fans singing away!The ground from the outside doesn't look particularly attractive. With 20 minutes to go we had missed a penalty and had a man sent off in quick succession but Burnley failed to respond really and we comfortably held out to take home the 3 points, much to the delight of our loud following. Once Sam Vokes came on for Burnley they started winning more in the air. "Robbie Blake would be high on any list of footballers who keep a sense of perspective, very grounded.

Aaron Lennon signs for Burnley...and looks far happier than at his Everton unveiling

finds Liverpool's same problems come back to haunt him Sean Dyche sings praises of summer signing Jeff Hendrick after stunning goal helps Burnley sink Bournemouth Manchester Road is a 15 minute walk away and is served by the faster express service from Manchester Victoria. Not sure how many realised that they have three qualification rounds before the group stage though.Turf Moor is a mixture of two halves. Turf Moor is a mixture of old and new. So 2-1 Burnley was a great result for them and another poor performance for City. If I had a choice I would go the Cricket club for pre match food and drink (which I had done on my previous visit) next time.

We went in the Cricket Club. There are some Burnley fans in the James Hargreaves Stand who do their best to get the atmosphere going, but they never really succeeded on my visit.
