Missed the boat with this one. If anyone has two spares (together as it’s for me and a 9 year old), let me know!

Indecisive

He was very loyal as a player Easy to be loyal when you are playing at an elite club. General consensus seems to be that he will see the ‘project’ here lasting a few seasons. Hope that is the case. Just if you were plotting a career path for him, objectively you may question whether he’d want to ri...

Indecisive

Initially when we were relegated I thought we may struggle to attract Kompany to the club… however looking at it now, is it possible Kompany would have chosen to manage us in this scenario over coming in as a premier league manager, given the choice? We all know he’s pretty much on Premier league mo...

Indecisive

Not fickle much us Clarets fans Haha. This was my first thought when he scored. He didn’t deserve some of the stick he was getting, and from a fair few on here there was zero respect for what he’s given us over the years (similar situation with dyche). At the end of the day though all football fans...

Indecisive

Abandoned is an emotional word that doesn't seem to apply but in fact he did leave for more money, and of course Premier League football. No-one can blame him for that but let's not make him out to be something special beyond him giving good service for most of the time he was here. Good service fo...

Indecisive

Drink driving incident aside, I’ve nothing but respect for Barnes and his time at Burnley. He’s been great and by all accounts a positive influence on and off the pitch. The deep desire by a number on this board of always needing to have players to target negatively is one of the most depressing asp...

Indecisive

A few on here seem to compliment the ref on adding 10 mins tonight. He couldn’t do anything else in the circumstances. He added time on he is obliged to add on. What he could have done is took an ounce of control in that second half. He was genuinely shocking and had zero authority or control. It wa...

There should be a rule that a team who time wastes cannot benefit from it, tonight they had a chance in the dieing seconds, ref should be able to end game when the team who hasn't time wasted scores.

Sack that rule off if we get promoted and are the underdog every week though, yeah?

Indecisive

If gudmundsson performs like he did in the first half every match the current set up is ideal if you ask me. A high energy Last 30 mins from Benson is going to terrify any full back in this league. Back in May I never thought I’d be watching two players as exciting as Zaroury and Benson ripping team...

Indecisive

Very decent team I thought! Set up well, knew where our threats were coming from and managed to look pretty dangerous on the break. For the resources they have you’d have to be pretty happy as a Rotherham fan. Bar a daft red card tonight, they’d likely have been going home with a result. The time wa...

Indecisive

Jay has shown this season just how a clever and natural a footballer he is. Adapting his game as he gets older and clearly Kompany has a great deal of confidence in him. Between him and Cork we have two really smart intelligent footballers who I think have been integral to this squad gelling as quic...

Indecisive

Great video. Particularly love tella, zaroury and kompany celebrating at the end. We all want to see passion from those wearing the shirt, and it’s clear we have got plenty of that this year. Puts a smile on even the most cynical football fans face I’d imagine 😊 Let’s park the penalty discussion now...

Indecisive

To me he’s got some great ability but he’s going to struggle at the top level until he can find A better way of keeping his head. He looks way too impulsive. It could be a youth and experience things, but you’ve got to use your brain in games. To be honest he’s probably getting the best coaching her...

Indecisive

It will be a tough game today I think, particularly if we are missing Cullen as well as Cork. I’m hoping for the best but 9/2 for a Reading win is almost tempting. Hoping our team aren’t quite as complacent as some of the fans. We’ve been doing well, but there will be some slip ups along the way. Fi...

Indecisive

Well done Kompany. An honest and thoughtful answer, but is anyone really surprised by that?

Can’t help feeling we have been astoundingly lucky going from Dyche to Kompany. Both really do seem to be great managers and thoroughly decent people.

Indecisive

Probably more aptly titled the "corpses of London". Very true to real life - if real life consisted of 4 or 5 cockneys murdering 40 odd gypsies on a camp site with automatic weapons and a man-bag full of hand grenades....! I mean it was interesting for about 2 or 3 episodes in the way that the firs...

Indecisive

He’s developing a brand new team from scratch and seems to be getting them buying in to his preferred style of play.

Gives the impression of someone who will be a top manager. I may be wrong, but we’ll see.

Indecisive

Played some very decent stuff. Not quite opening teams up enough but would have been very deserving of 3 points today. I can tell you now, they will be buzzing with the point. The reality is, and if you’ve listened to the Bellamy interview our management team know it….we are a completely new team, a...

Indecisive

Decent chef line up so expect the food will be good. If I lived more local I’d be tempted. Price is pitched about right for me, for what’s on offer and the location. The idea is to raise money after all! I know it’s been done to death but honestly the constant digs at dyche on here frustrate the hel...

Indecisive

I would recommend; The White Swan Northcote and if you fancy a drive, Moor Hall or the Bran at Moor Hall in Ormskirk is excellent and a real treat The Barn is just about affordable. Moor hall is bordering on ridiculous now price wise though. With modest drinks you are looking at £7-800 for an eveni...

NJ Filled it in. And they do actually answer LS7's question.

With this team now a prime Danny Ings would be in his element. Would be very confident of automatics.

Indecisive

Time will tell. Though Southall and Bassini aren't really appropriate comparators because they both (with all their faults) put money into their clubs. their clubs owed money to the owners, which of course creates problems of its own. But Burnley owe nothing to Pace. Quite the contrary, he owes wel...

I heard that Weghorst was an absolute model pro throughout his time at Burnley.

I don’t have any hard feelings about what he’s done and totally understand.

The dyche view?

From all accounts seems to differ from the players view as the season progressed (and dyche left).

Indecisive

No I’m just curious, some people seem obsessed with the sales paying off debt narrative (I’m open to that being the case to an extent btw and it’s quite likely) but fail to comment on what I mentioned. Taio beat me to it. The net spend is the significant figure if you are discussing owners putting ...

What’s your comments on us being the top spending club in the league and likely soon to be one of the top spending clubs ever seen in the league?

This definitely makes you sound like you are on Pace’s payroll and I’m not even bothered

Indecisive

I don't know how the financial picture of BFC is so alien to you, Chester and others have literally broken it down for you but you still fail to see it. You aren't even being objective with the club/ALK, straight on the defensive. Should we not be objective? criticise ALK for the academy downgrade ...

Scott Twine WILL be great too

For some reason I feel both him and McNally will slowly start to have an impact.

Got a friend with a lot of knowledge of the lower leagues and he is convinced we’ve struck gold again with centre halves, after the likes of keane, tarks and Collins.

This is exactly what my son will be doing when he makes his decision.

I suppose maybe there’s some worthy discussion after these first few games of who we think will really push on and become the key players in the team? … or maybe not

My 9 year old mentioned to me the other day how he’s struggling to pick his favorite player now. In his words… It was nick pope but he left Then it would have been tarks but he’s gone Then it would have probably been Ben mee or Dwight McNeil but they’ve gone Then it would have been cornet 😂😂 I’m not...

Indecisive

If we are seen to block the (upward) career path of our best players we will be much less likely to attract decent young prospects. Hadn’t actually viewed it this way but it’s a fair point. Either way it really would be unfair for Pope not to be allowed to move on. He’s a model pro, and he clearly ...

Indecisive

What Everton’s fan base, and I suppose pretty much all to some extent, fail to realise is quite how much the toxic atmosphere in the stand and online can affect the players. It’s often a self fulfilling prophecy. Fans write off a player or decide he’s useless and start barracking him, the chances of...

Indecisive

He’s so cool, calm and collected and comes across very intelligent. Regardless of peoples views of Pace, on first impressions, it really does seem like he has recruited well here. I was (and am) very much a Dyche fan. But in a way, Kompany is probably the ideal replacement because he is so different...

Indecisive

It’s very very likely that Cornet will go before the end of the window. He comes across completely the opposite to Weghorst, and does appear to be a popular guy in the dressing room. Whether all this is just him (or his advisors) being PR savvy… or he’s just a genuine good guy, it really doesn’t mat...

Appalling decision to sell an obvious super centre back, for pennies

Pennies

To be precise 2065000000 of them.

Indecisive

Despite him not always being given the credit he’d deserve I’d say Cork has been the most valuable to us. Raw ability… Defour is a shoe in.

Quite an easy pick for me with these two.

Indecisive

Sure I’d heard when the season ended a deal had been pretty much agreed. Maybe Kompany didn’t fancy him taking up what would likely be one of the higher wages. Could be a mixture of that and him not fitting into the system. Also he was such an influential character. He’d been stepping into a coachin...

Indecisive

Jay particularly I could see being very useful in the championship. He’s actually a much much more intelligent player than some on here seem to give him credit for. His movement and natural footballing brain may help him adapt as his age starts to show a bit. He knows the division and I could see hi...

Indecisive

I find the disrespect and undervaluing of our players quite baffling. Both JRod and Barnes are very solid finishers. In an attacking team in the Championship, where they’ll get that extra split second of time and the Keepers are far inferior, they’d both do very well. Maybe not 20+ but possibly. I ...

Indecisive

People questioning whether Cork is too old … he is incredibly fit and you can just tell he is a complete professional. Think Kompany will see him as a key player this year tbh. We were much better with him than without him last year, and the championship is a long way off the standard required in th...

Indecisive

GK, RB, and two centre halves very very easy. Also Defour, Dwight and then Ings and Wood up front I would say. On potential you’d maybe put Collins alongside Tarks, as ultimately I think he’ll be a superior player to Mee (not taking anything away from Mee, who has been phenomenal and is a shoe in, i...

Swansea fans are a bit scathing on their player on their forums. I take a lot of credence in that but will obviously judge anyone on what they do for us.

Had a few players like that with previous clubs…

Scott Arfield… Ashley Westwood… Lowton.

It wasn’t subtle really though, just that I was led to understand it would be tomorrow.

So many rugs pulled from under us over the last few years that everyone is going to be sceptical until it’s officially announced.

The fan base is in dire dire need of some positive news.

Indecisive

No real reason for this question but was just wondering what a typical assistant manager would expect to be paid at premier league/championship level?

Similarly back room staff, coaches etc.

Indecisive

Could quite feasibly go from having the best centre half pairing of Collins and Mee stay, to the worst, if they both leave. If I was the new manager I’d be doing everything to convince Collins another year of developing and playing every game will ultimately see him an even better player and end up ...
