Whiskey thread now? Hubby drinks Islay Whiskeys from Ardbeg. Got him a bottle of Udegail for Christmas. He had finished it by New Year. I think he may have a problem.

Me too for Xmas. Too good to drink fast

A wee dram tonight tho after the Malbec has run out

We've to get to about? 37 points by May and even for SD that's going to be almost miracle proportions from where we are now. Yes, we're playing pretty well, especially defensively, but the front 2 look extremely flat and that's an issue in itself because we really don't get many goals from elsewher...

This is my browsers spellcheck team when I type in the first three letters of our players surname

Look at our forwards!

TBH they haven't been as good as that recently

Rather than start a new thread I’ll slide this in here. VAR decisions by club. Doesn’t tell the whole story as we've had a few that didn’t even get to VAR, Newcastle first goal & Ben Mee at Leeds spring to mind. https://www.espn.co.uk/football/english-premier-league/story/4182135/how-var-decisions-...

F the national team, I only care about club football.

But it was winning the World Cup in 1966 that made football in England and that applies to other European nations.

If the kids of today are playing Xbox then sheer apathy and price will kill the golden goose

Down_Rover

No.

We need players who get the ball to our strikers

Down_Rover

It is not just the top 6

I think I read that Dyche has beaten every premier league and championship club he has ever played

Down_Rover

They might if they give Arteta too much time at the helm. his fledgling management career to date is as assistant to a team that walks all over the opposition and has a second XI that could come close to winning the title. It is a different job raising a dispirited team from the floor, new territory...

The money was there, as we tried to break our transfer record with a record bid for Phillips remember ( thought to be 20m ), also we went upto 12m for Adams apparently, so the funds were there and I'd not say either were first team ready for the premier league. I think you can count on 1 hand the a...

Down_Rover

It isn't

What we need is for Pope to be tested in a competitive international.

Wont happen because he has no experience of playing in a competitive international

He will have to be patient and wait until Pickford gets injured or suspended

Dwight McNeil has nearly all the letters of "Technical" except the "a" and Charlie Taylor all except the "n" in their names...

So both have the most "Technical" letters in their names

Most commentators call him Dwight MacNeil

Bingo! All the letters

If you don't concede you get at least a point. If fact you only need to score one for a win

Dyche will never get the respect he needs from a squad of international players, the media, or the FA. Good god he played for Chesterfield and managed Burnley. It is much easier to have a wimp like Southgate in charge. He obeys the rules, picks the players from the money clubs, where the media can m...

This.

Couldn't turn the pages quickly enough

Down_Rover

Were there any offers for them? Were the (combined) offers in the region of £100m? Was SD prepared to lose two of his crown jewels? Don't you, and NewClaret, think that MG and the Board did not consider all options? Reading some comments on here makes you think that the Club is run by 5-year-olds. ...

Down_Rover

Thinking outside the box we could have sold Pope and McNeil for nearly £100m invested in several players and still have change

Based on their respective performances so far this season it would have been a master stroke

The benefit of hindsight

One would have expected them to have a quiet word with Dyche before appoint him

If we get to the point of having to sell to finance the costs of Covid it should not be assumed that the market will pay what we want or need It will be a different market. We will be Smalling as a distressed vendor and there will be less buyers around as Covid hits them too. The market in this circ...

If we literally can't afford to spend any money then we should have sold Tarkowski and got in two or three players for the money he brought in. Sticking with the current squad amounts to throwing in the towel. It's mismanagement of the club. It that means paying more in wages and devalues our squad

Down_Rover

Seems to me that the only thing we know that the Board are guilty of is not spending money that they have not got I guess all you moaners used to shout and scram every birthday and Christmas when your parents could not afford the present you wanted. That wasn’t their fault. It is life KBRFC. I have ...

The behaviour of England players over the last 12 months beggars belief

No punishment no good behaviour

Sterling Grealish macGuire Greenwood Foden Walker and now these three. Nearly a whole team there and they are only the ones we know about

Southgate should carry the can for this

If Ben Mee not fit for next game Jimmy Dunne must play

Kev is 30, there can be no improvement to come

Dunne deserves a chance

I don’t know why you keep saying that like Eagles wasn’t a good player????

Like I say all about opinions

I didn’t rate Eagles and his career doesn’t suggest he was top drawer.

Down_Rover

How many times have you seen him play? While I was surprised we were in for him, I wouldn't say that from what I've seen of him. Plenty of times for Derby and Bournemouth Struck me as a poor mans Chris Eagles. Bits of talent when teammates give him the ball but a luxury in a team set up like ours N...

I would think Dyche thought he would be a good signing given that we were trying to sign him. Babyliner - not heard that one since primary school, but that's not the first word that came anywhere near my head to describe Wilson. For once I agree with LTL. His heat maps suggest Wilson would not fit ...

Wilson scored 7 goals last season in a struggling side from out wide - how many did our wingers manage - 7 between them ?

Cos he is a babyliner.

No room for one of them in our team

Dodged another bullet.

What really interests me here is who within the club thought he would be a good signing?

Down_Rover

I like that we allow people to freely express their views on here

Cheers me up at times

Looks like Burnley’s valuation was nearer the mark than the seller on this occasion

Damn good job they didn’t get impatient and offer the asking price
