For me I'd have 8 Claret and blue shirts around the Wembley 09 shirt.

The newspaper headlines when we sneak a Champions League place on the final day of the season.

Camarasa is good player and did well for Cardiff last season. Probably their best player. Two things though. Firstly, didn't Warnock have something to say about his attitude last year? And secondly, I'd have thought we might be after more a defensive minded midfielder. Don't know about his attitude...

Goobs

Some very sensible comments there about concentrating on U23's and not thinking about the first team. Good look to the lad.

Goobs

£50m and they can have him. Dyche knows how to spot a good CB and we already have Ben Gibson in the wings (don't care which foot he prefers to kick with!).

Does he? Why? Hasn't been the case with a number of other players in recent years so not sure why this one has to be different. Ings, Boyd, Arfield, Ward have all run their contracts down. Ings we still got money for and doubt anyone would have paid much for the others even with 12 months remaining...

Tiny club. Fairytale story... Cough cough

He and Mace Goodridge came in on trial towards the end of the 2017/18 season and both did well enough to get deals. Both started last season really well but Goodridge then did his cruciate and is just on his way back. Benson, I thought impressed, but he missed the end of the season with a hamstring...

Goobs

Benson was never a youth team player at Burnley, we signed him from Arsenal last summer. I think he's got something about him. Haha got me on a technicality there CT. I should have said development squad player. Hope you are right as I like nothing more than seeing young players breakthrough and do...

Goobs

Burnley would have to be Waddle in my lifetime.

Other clubs has to see Leeds in with a shout David Hockett or something like that brought in from like the 8th tier or something or Barsteward's very own Henning Berg.

Goobs

Is Benson going to be this season's exciting preseason youth?

Plays well in the warm up matches, looks the part, then barely ever seen again?

Would be nice to see a few of our youth players start to break through together.

Goobs

Depends what sports you want to look at and what you class as world cup winners. We have had many world champions in all sorts of sports (far too many to begin to even try and name).

Are you just classing team sports where there is a competition named "the world cup"?

Goobs

Lorry overturned on Greenhead Lane. Road closed and will be for a while so avoid.

Goobs

But the point is, you and others would like them to move away, despite them being here longer than BFC. Do you think we should move away from our current ground, given a good offer? I'm more than happy for them to stay. Depending on the offer I wouldn't mind us moving somewhere else in the town if ...

Why did they have to fist bump after every point, They're not tennis players

The first game of the season will be Southapmton. All friendlies mentioned are PRE-season. You're welcome!

Goobs

Think they've shown their intent already by the contracts offered, they prefer £8m now & maybe put towards a CM or £3m in Jan when choice of midfielders is less. Just can't get a handle on the Hart situation tho They offered him an extra year which signifies that the want him here for another t...

rob63 wrote:Great! But how long do the club give him to make up his mind?

Depends on our intent really.

If he is going to be number one then possibly until January. If we are happy with Pope or Hart being our keeper then yes let him go provided the offer is right.

Goobs

rob63 wrote:So we let him go next year to another newly-promoted club? For nothing, & lose out on £8/9m-ish for groundhog day to happen?

What if he stays, plays and signs a contract extension in the next 12 months?

Those two points are not mutually exclusive. You are right but IMO so is QTT.

Goobs

We will all have opinions on this, and we will choose one or the other, but I think Tom is technically the best of all our goalkeepers. You are right definitely a split of opinions over all three of them. I agree with Heaton being technically better than the other two (just) but Pope has a big adva...

ClaretTony wrote:I totally agree with that

I partially agree with it. He would be a big loss as he has been fantastic for us. However IF Pope continues from where he was pre injury then Heaton is certainly not miles better and I'm not even sure he's the better keeper.

IF Heaton goes then Pope has to be number 1.

Wrong season. We only got three all season. First was at Palace that Arfield took when Ings had gone off injured. Ings took the next one to get a draw against Villa and the next one was against Leicester which he did not want to take. So before you start rubbishing it, and it is fact, I’d get the r...

Thought this was going to be about a takeover bid. Disappointed

Goobs

Have to agree with this. Completely fine signing as backup. But after McNeil we have no other first team player under 25. Jay is only going to add to our squad of 30+ years players. How many outfield players in our usual starting 11 are over 30? I make it none in fact Cork is the only one to have r...

Chris Eagles on trial at Oldham - another who divided opinion. Decent on his day however there weren't many of them.

The money the cricket club makes on parking and beer sales would go a long way to their running costs for the year.

No surprises he is good with a name like that.
