Re: Nathan Tella

One of the most exciting players to pull on a claret and blue jersey.
It was a delight to watch him play for the Clarets.
Played with a chuckle in his boots.
Well done Nathan.

Re: Everton - 2 more points deducted.

We've all seen now how the Premier Leagues justice in this process works. First it was a 10 point penalty then that was reduced to six on appeal and now they've added another two point deduction. How amateurish this all looks. Forest, Chelsea and City must be quaking in their boots.

Re: Season tickets next season

The club must be expecting that relegation will result in fewer season ticket sales, therefore increase them across the board to offset the losses of a few thousand less season tickets.
As for the prices for a burnley fc twix next season, you'll probably need a bank loan.
