Do you seriously get it in 4K? I’ve tried various streaming sites, boxes, Kodi this, IPTV that and never found a stream that was anything like proper HD, never mind 4K.

If it’s available outside of SKY etc, I’d love to know how to get it.

It does partly call into question the importance that we place on having the right characters in our squad. Something that by accounts we place a great deal of focus upon. It may just be unfortunate but it’s not the first time he’s been in the press for the wrong reasons. Hopefully he learns from th...

Chubby Brown is massively racist and misogynistic. I don't want a comedian to pander to the lowest common denominator, I want them to make me think. Swearing or using serious topics as the basis of a joke doesn't have to be offensive though. Is he or is that his comedic style - pandering to an audi...

I don’t like comedians who appear to get more laughs from being rude and offensive. Chubby Brown being a prime example.

That may be where I heard about it, but I feel sure (could be wrong?) that it's been said that there is no "right to light" and when neighbours complain about planned extensions etc they often mistakenly focus on the light they will potentially lose, but it's not a valid argument. I had a...

If I remember rightly the issue with local residents wasn't about light (apparently legally you have no "right to light" and can't normally object to building work on these grounds anyway, but I may be wrong) came when the Jimmy Mac went up and those close by couldn't get TV reception. Al...

Vaping wouldn’t be so bad, if it wasn’t for those with the car battery sized units that seem to be all the rage. Any bigger and they’ll be developing a ghost busters style back pack to carry the bloody things. The volume of vapour, in mushroom cloud proportions whilst smelling of a tarts handbag, is...

I remember that tackle on Hoskin, from being a very young lad. It was a shocker. As a youngster watching Burnley at the time, when Hoskin came into the team, he stood out to me (admittedly with not much quality to compare him against, nor with much watching experience at the time of judging players)...

Two seasons ago on the train back to MK from an away game at Watford I was chatting to other Burnley supporters And 4 out of a group of 6 and 2 saying nothing said that Stephen Defour was the best player they had ever seen playing for Burnley You’d have to be of a certain age to have seen better, s...

Some twattery on here! Stealing a wage etc. etc.

Shame we didn’t have more from him but it was a risk we were happy to take, when we signed him. Best of luck to him - hopefully he can have a good injury free run.

DCWat

Wood was like a schoolboy against Van Dijk.

OK he’s the best centre half in the world, but that begs the question, why was it apparently a tactic to hoof it to Wood, who is generally pretty poor at winning balls in the air, or making use of his size, to at least make it awkward for the opposition.

DCWat

Blunderland is pretty explanatory, as with Chelski and Citeh. Ones like Wet Spam seem a tad daft.

I think I’m right in saying that some referees instruct the linesman not to flag for certain decisions, whilst others want them to flag. It certainly appears that way when watching games. Line outs, and offsides to a lesser extent, are probably pretty easy to implement, using technology. If both can...

It's all in the past now but it was the incident in cherry tree that I stupidly got involved in. Nine years not a punch thrown but quite simply we shouldn't have been there. Enjoy the day - a nine year punishment, coinciding with our most successful period for decades must have felt like a life sen...

Can I ask what you did that resulted in such a long ban?

No different to Neville being in commentary for a United game and to be fair to both him and Keown, there was no bias.

We do seem to love to think otherwise though!

DCWat

If we’ve confidence in the ability and potential of a player, such as Phillips, we eventually need to take a bit of a calculated risk. The transfer fees are astronomical but assuming said signing delivers, we would be quids in. Last window or the one before, I remember posters saying that we don’t n...

I love this rule regarding the signing of youngsters and what is allowed.... “The player's parents move to the country in which the new club is located for non-footballing reasons.” There must be hundreds of parents of young African players who were already considering moving to Europe for reasons c...

A mate of mine, to our amusement, told us on a night out in Leeds the other week, that he went to see Saville’s cortège go through the City (I think Saville may have been held in The Queens Hotel for a time, for people to pay their respects). Whether or not there were rumours before, he was certainl...

Personally feel it should be regionalised in some way. The costs and hassle involved for 2nd division teams who are already playing 46 games and then with trips in the week for cup matches. Its not like they get planes like some of the top clubs will. Long bus journeys which have been proven not to...

It’d be bloody magic if we made a final! We will never win the top division again, unless something drastically changes. There is though, always an outside chance of a cup. A favourable draw and who knows? Just look at Wigan. It may have lost some magic but there’s still enough there to make me want...

Bit like the FA Cup,no one cares. The FA Cup winners should get a champions league place and the league cup winners a UEFA cup place.

He grew into the game and of course got two assists. I was far from convinced in the first half though - some very poor defensive headers, right back into the centre.

He was much better in the second.

DCWat

Not that I do it, but all of the rating criteria remain relevant, with it without VAR

DCWat

Did they just say that there aren’t the resources to have a VAR referee at each ground and so all decisions go to London for review!?

That’ll speed things up on Saturday with 6 games going on.

Some heads need wobbling to Richter scale level! All signings carry a risk but this is one that ticks so many boxes that needed to be ticked, it’s madness to see this as anything other than a positive signing.

Assuming we manage to get Drinkwater wrapped up, are we expecting any other incomings? I am not being greedy with that as if there are no departures I am not convinced we need anyone else, just wondering really.

I look forward to wondering why my weekly 2000/1 acca didn’t come in.

Treat it as a bit of fun - it’s far more interesting than popping a couple of quid on the national lottery.

DCWat

Pretty perfect signing for us, assuming it all goes through. I’ve always seen him as a grafter, prepared to get stuck in, but offering a threat going forward with some clever passing. A 4-4-2 player as well. Ticks plenty of boxes and only gone 29 earlier this year.

DCWat

You lost me at “a Kardashian”

DCWat

I’d be surprised if this does happen, but very pleased.

Someone able to break up play and then play accurate balls out to either flank could really ease some pressure and set us on the front foot. We’ve had a tendency to utilise our centre halves for that, perhaps more than we should.
