Signing number 3? Welcome back Jonesy

I hope that we didn’t pay for him to go out to Portugal

And yet if anybody on here suggests that us getting a rich owner would be a good thing, they are told we would then be the next Bolton, Portsmouth, Rovers etc

Makes you wonder how he was England number 1 for all them years along with all that he managed to win with City

I’m confused about this obsession with policies for an independent MEP candidate. I have no real feelings either way towards Tommy Robinson but I would question what would the point of him having a policy on the British Steel debacle as mentioned in a post above.

I’m not having a go, it’s just that the coverage has intensified over the past 2 years, but I’m still not interested. That said, in regards to the Burnley Ladies, I didn't even know we had a proper team to be fair until last week. I wasn't sure what League they’ve even won. I don’t know what the qu...

So the bad luck of Coyle leaving mid season didn’t lead to us going down? The other thread would suggest a lot of posters on here would disagree. It can be lucky to have no bad luck!

Is this what getting old feels like when people you remember as being young players start becoming managers

MRG

I think my point has been made so I will leave it at that before things start getting silly.

MRG

I have no idea of the in’s and out’s of the decision making process within the club. As per my initial post, ‘the club and board’ would certainly cover the spectrum of those involved with recruitment.

Have you come up with any other team that haven’t added a single first team player in 3 windows?

MRG

No, I believe it’s absolutely accurate to say that we have not improved our first team across 3 transfer windows which in terms of recruitment is a massive issue. I doubt that you can find any other club (potentially in the football league but certainly in the premier league) that haven’t improved a...

If I see Tommy Robinson it will be one more time than I’ve ever seen the Bishop of Burnley and I’ve lived her all my life.

I’ve zero desire to see Robinson but what gives the Bishop the right to speak on my behalf?

The Chairman

MRG

I’ll help you out, it was summer 2017. We have had 3 transfer windows since then and we haven’t added a single first team regular to the squad. Now find me another club that haven’t improved their first team for 3 transfer windows! Anybody who doesn’t realise that we have a big issue with recruitmen...

If Crouch stays the club & board have once again shown that they simply are unable to manage the recruitment of a top flight club.

Wardy is summed up by the 2nd goal in the 2-0 win at home to Liverpool. If you get chance to watch that goal again it's a classic counter attack and Ward is the furthest player up the pitch when the goal goes in even though he starts the move from our box...best left back I have seen for us, certai...

I knew that this was coming from late 2018. There had been some concerns within the club about some ongoing issues with his knees.

A fantastic player for us over the years and a player that I wish nothing but the best of luck in whatever comes next for him

I got married in the early 90’s to a young lady I loved passionately. The way she treated me and left me, left me with a real bitter dislike. Sure, we had some really good times - but I’ll never forgive her. I’ve moved on and happily remarried. I wouldn’t want to be in her company again in case I s...

It was the washout that you would expect!

Shoulder of Mutton in Hebden Bridge offers some really good food particularly their 3 course Sunday Lunch for less than £20.

It’s certainly not a place to go for a ‘fancy meal’ but the food is of a really good standard

Lowton/new Tarks(if he stays,Gibson if he goes)

I’m sick of pointing out that Gibson can’t replace Tarks as they don’t play in the same position

MRG

Does this mean that Ched Evans is now a premier league player? I think he is only out on loan at Fleetwood

Gibson is a left sided centre back, just like Mee. He is not a suitable replacement for Tarks

We are looking to book a decent cruise for 2020. We have never been on a cruise holiday before. Do any of you have any tips on do and don’ts? Where is best place to book at a decent price?

You think I haven't tried to imagine a scenario where a police officer is repeatedly beating a handcuffed, non-violent civilian? He wasn't even being arrested for a violent crime. He has some weed on him. https://www.romfordrecorder.co.uk/news/teenager-arrested-on-suspicion-of-assaulting-police-off...

Simply not good enough at this level. A new right back is a priority

Can you offer a summary? Is it about NHS buildings?

Heaton 6
Lowton 6

The change since Heaton has come in has been obvious to see. It's clear at the games that he organises the back four far better and they are more confident playing in front of him than Hart. I believe Hart should be our number 3 for the remainder of the season and Pope on the bench. Your post raise...

MRG

Hart did absolutely nothing wrong and it’s embarrassing that we continue to make a scapegoat of him.

MRG

I may of missed the update but can anybody enlighten me to the reason that he is currently unavailable? Is it me tsk health issues again?

MRG

Where do Brighton pick up their points from them remaining fixtures?

MRG

It showed the police in a very poor light last night. Such a big case and one 1 officer knew the details yet he was on holiday!!

I thought he would get off with it as the evidence could easily be disputed therefore it would be difficult to prove beyond reasonable doubt
