The newspaper says it is the biggest Burnley site and they praise Clarets Mad for its team news, match reports, player profiles and historical archive, but they were particularly attracted by what they referred to as the fan-orientated content which includes features such as
I Support Burnley,
Worldwide Clarets,
Clarets Gallery and of course the ever popular
Message Board.
They also highlighted the brilliant
Year of the Youth Campaign that has been running since March, informing all their readers of the superb effort that has raised in excess of £12,000 for youth development at Turf Moor.
“You will really have to check out Clarets Mad to see how good it really is,” the newspaper wrote before giving us a 4 star rating.
I suppose it is a bit like the Oscars and it is now my turn to thank everyone – so I won't break with tradition and I'll do just that, to everyone who contributes articles and match reports to the site, to those who have backed the Year of the Youth campaign to make it such an incredible success, to everyone (well, nearly everyone) who uses the message board, and to everyone that visits us at Clarets Mad.
Yes, a big surprise yesterday, but an enjoyable surprise.
