Keep an eye on Ludvig Aberg.

While most of the field struggled with the wind and the greens - he quietly shot 69.

You can take it a step further and apply that to the football club itself. Did they buy BFC at a cheap price? I don't think so. On the back of 5 consecutive years in the PL with no debts and a huge cash surplus the club was probably at its peak in terms of valuation. But then again they didn't buy ...

Everton de-brief is out now. Hopefully without any of last week's glitches.

Also keep an eye out for a rare Wednesday episode dropping this week - an interview with football finance analyst Kieran Maguire who takes a broad overview of what the club's accounts mean.

If you look at the case of clubs where things have gone badly wrong in the past, it would suggest there are a number of red flags to watch out for: 1. Large loans/debt 2. Excessive transfer activity combined with poor results and running at a significant loss in transfer dealings. 3. Lack of transpa...

Edwards is a good manager, good man too. Whilst you would have to congratulate them on taking the risk on Barkley they are VERY lucky they got the version of him they did. Its not about luck. Its about managing players. People thought Dyche was 'lucky' with Joey Barton. But he was able to manage th...

Any normal football club would be looking to change manager of this season.

But Burnley is no longer a normal football club.

If it's Grand Old Team they want everyone dropped and everyone sacked. Given half a chance they'd start handing out P45s to themselves. It's not exactly IQ central. Many moons ago, one well-known Everton fan actually did famously go "scuttling around in taxis" handing out redundancy notice to his o...

I thought these were the accounts covering the financial year ending July 31, 2023?

Watt's involvement was announced in May 2023 - within that financial year.

Or am I missing something here?

It should be ok now.

No idea what has happened (was the same for me earlier) but it seems to be fine now.

You’d imagine JJ Watt has invested in ALK along with Malcolm Jenkins and Dude Perfect which is why they say they are part of the ‘ownership group’

I don't imagine that Dude Perfect has invested in anything to be honest!

I've presumed that was a kind of influencer contract.

Who is the new director per the director’s report V Torgovnik Does not sound American He is American. New York/New Jersey area. Noticeable that JJ Watt is not listed as a director. He is routinely described as 'co-owner' or 'minority owner' or 'minority investor'. It will be interesting to see whic...

Appalling. I wonder how many people are outraged about this compared to say, the colour of a cross on a football shirt.

Burnley have done pretty well at retaining attendance levels after being relegated. Partly as a result of being successful in the Championship of course.

But this is a pretty good way to break that trend.

forzagranata

American owners......

There are no reduced prices for pensioners at all in American sports. As a result, you don't see many over-65's at games in the USA.

The only time I have seen anything close to a reduced rate is for armed forces veterans.

So ALK would find this a strange practice.

Q: What sort of things did you have to think about when you made that (Muric) decision? "Not much, what's best for the team, that's all.

Yeh found a few that say they show sports only open at dinner time. Interesting that it’s not on US TV. Is there a way I can stream it on my laptop Forzagranata?

Not really the point I’m making. I’m saying that these organisations still insisting on suits and ties (usually grey ones purchased from Burtons or Greenwood’s for less than £30 !!)…..are hardly great examples of people or organisations that you respect or want to deal with. Do you think if Pace wo...

forzagranata

Funnily enough the institutions in the last couple of decades that have decided to keep the old suit, shirt and tie dress code are often those that have failed to move with the times in many other area too - like technology, flexible working practices, online presence etc etc. Look at many local co...

In a meeting at his office on The Strand, he wore jeans, and a pair of boots, with an actual hole in the sole. (He apologised for the condition of his footwear - as he had his feet on the table for bloodflow, after a football injury.) I can assure you that neither he, nor the household names who so...

Yeah - point more is that there is a difference between loans for development (such as those we see with Dundee etc) and loans because we can't sell them and want part of their salary off the pay roll. The former can be an intelligent way to give young players experience, the latter is a sign of pro...

I would certainly expect a mass clear-out - whether it is a necessity for financial reasons or not. It's going to be very interesting to see if ALK are ready and willing to go through a third straight summer of mass player trading and acquisition.

Pacebots is used by those not old enough to say happy clapper

No, there is a clear difference between 'happy clappers' - who I respect for their loyalty and optimism - and the handful of people who spend their time rushing to the defence of even the slightest, mildest criticism of Alan Pace.

forzagranata

Ok the Pacebots are going to double-down on tee-shirts and baseball caps....what a surprise!

forzagranata

Ask yourself this - if you were in legal trouble and you went to see a lawyer - serious business - would you be more likely to hire someone wearing a suit and tie or someone in a baseball cap and tee-shirt?

If you are owner or manager of Burnley FC it should be serious business too.

That's just the way of the world, long gone are the days when everyone wore suits. You can be wearing well over £1000 worth of clothing in just jeans, trainers and a top with a baseball cap.
