Got to say it's the first time I've seen the MOM awarded to a player who gets 1 for, and didn't bat..

I thought that was an odd decision. The MOM should have been the Littleborough stumper. He took some fantastic catches and stumped Ben Heap.

C’est La vie.

Not sure what the delay is around announcing Ramsey but I expect an announcement very soon.

I still believe Lokonga to be done also but I was told that there’d be no imminent announcement on that one.l as he’s still injured.

arise_sir_charge

Don’t think it has to be clear and obvious does it for a potential red card? We weren’t sure whether it was even a foul but there is absolutely no doubt that it’s a red card. That’s where I think VAR is terrible though. Generally with a bad challenge you get a feel from the crowd reaction, the play...

Why be so glass half-empty? We played ok today but were outclassed against a world class team. We have a gap next week to give Vinny more time with the squad (rumours that Ramsey was there tonight). We all saw after WC what more time at Gawthorpe can result in. We also play a Kane-less Spurs (who f...

The simplest question with the red card is, if that’s Walker catching Zaroury does Oliver call it back? The answer is obviously no he doesn’t, so it’s never a red card.

arise_sir_charge

Was going to say, that doesn’t defy the offside rule but it does seem to defy the laws of motion.

arise_sir_charge

You see, I didn’t think that was a tough game to watch. I thought we gave everything against the best team in the world and to watch some of our tactics in the press work and but for a couple of world class interceptions by Rodri, we’d have been through, I thought that was brilliant. Rodri is some p...

Messi is small but he's done alright

Yes, because Messi is the barometer against which all small players should be judged. He could cut it why can’t they all eh?

Just finished episode one Pace was clearly a bit shell shocked when we got relegated judging from the look on his face Interesting that he felt that one candidate was very similar to Dyche, that maybe didn’t go in their favour, and also VK may not have been their first choice originally but he talk...

Some proper crackpots on here.

arise_sir_charge

I think Berge fits what we need more.

I’ve said that I don’t think Cullen is in anyway light weight but he is small. Had we signed Hamer that would have been a midfield that Ken Dodd would have been proud of.

6.5% ROI - purchase price only?

You can only say “purchase price only” if you choose to disregard all other income streams.

Anyway, replacing ‘proven’ premier league quality with unknown cheap foreigners will never work will it Dan.

arise_sir_charge

Anybody who doubts our transfer policy only has to look at the absolutely insane fee Brighton have agreed for Caicedo. We just need one of these players to come off and they are all paid for. Exactly this. Also Southampton with Lavia etc. young players, who’ve done ok in the Prem but have potential...

VK saying that Ramsey is close is effectively saying it’s done. That’s because it is.

Never say never at the moment .. some of these suggested timelines are way off

So you’re not expecting Ramsey today then?

It’s all very exciting but at what point does the squad become too big? First we’re signing goalkeepers we didn’t know we needed, then a clutch of wingers ( to add to the clutch we signed last summer) now we’ve seemingly gone from nought to 3 central midfielders in a day, and we’re still short of a...

I’m definitely not on the wind up and it’s someone who is trust that has passed the information to me. I see what Ornstein has said but I’m told all that’s done and he should be in the squad Friday. What I will say on Lokonga is that I did ask was he sure it was Lokonga as we’ve been linked with a l...

why not available for Friday? Is that because of injury?

Yes, still not fit.

arise_sir_charge

They’ve both done the media stuff today, Ramsey likely announced tomorrow and available Friday, Lokonga not available Friday so they may space them out.

Ramsey and Lokonga done by all accounts.

An observation from this and the transfers thread but Coolclaret is possibly the least cool claret there is. Not in his dress sense or anything like that, I wouldn’t know he could be cool as cheese in that way but he gets awfully hot under the collar and anxious about things. Maybe a name change to ...

Surley it's a 1 year extension, he had a 4 year contract played a year leaving him 3 years left but now has a 4 year contract again by extending it by 1 year

Which is the exact same as a new 4 year contract.

It's shite, and embarrassing.

Why is it embarrassing?

It’s in line with all their other fan denial type stuff, pick the obvious stereotype (which is present for good reason) and lay it on thick.

As said above, it represents a large chunk of this forum.

Brilliant, albeit I appreciate it will offend some folk.

On the Lokonga point. I was told that someone looking very similar to him was at Gawthorpe all day yesterday.

Heckingbottom on Berge: Speaking to Talksport, Heckingbottom admitted he was “hugely disappointed” by Berge’s departure. “The timing of it, and the fact he's going,” he added. “In my mind I'd prepared for both [Berge and Ndiaye] a long time ago and drawn up plans and presented them to the club, say...

I’m not sure about Hamer. Older and much smaller than Ramsey. I think Ramsey will suit us better longer term.

For those travelling back out of Burnley on Friday night it may be worth checking there are no scheduled closures on the M65 on Friday night. I’ve been caught three times in recent months with late closures when returning from work events. Tends to be specific sections ie between junction 6 and 7 et...

What is it with fans getting excited about YouTube clips when they watch the players? They only ever show the best bits, never showing the times a player struggled to trap a bag of cement. Even Weghorst looked fantastic in his video. ;) Are you joking? They only show the best bits? Thanks for the h...

I’d be surprised if we aren’t looking to be a part of the Premier League series, next summer, assuming we stay up. Does this tournament offer much value to the smaller clubs, when we know that all they really want is Man United and the likes? Is it possible for little Burnley to take more than thei...

Here’s one.

If we could get Tella by using Brownhill as part of a deal with Southampton would people take that?

I would.

My only concern is purely how we can ever service the debt if/when we get relegated (which we almost will in the next few years, but don't return). If we do a couple of years in the Prem, using this model of buy young and develop we will have some players worth an absolute fortune or have cashed a ...

He won't be in the starting 11 often though if we sign all our targets so how many free kicks will he be on the pitch available for?

There is an advert, playing literally every break on Sky programming with the thickest Burnley accent possible saying “These Americans, they don’t get Burnley” or something like that.

To suggest the owners didn’t get stick/blame is daft.

There was ok Enty of criticism for the board and it increased when we sold some players. Asset stripping and sportswashing two notable and ridiculous accusations.

I'm hoping that you're right and I'm wrong, but given this summer's incomings, I feel that the shareholders will want to see some income. It’s the shareholders that are sanctioning the spending. As it happens, there is no doubt that is the longer term plan and I think Southampton are showing us wha...

Always fascinated with the suggestion that Dyche might come for Taylor. He seemed to go out of his way to pave Taylor out to me. Erik Pieters played plenty of games when CT was available.

Burnley town centre is way too big.

If you could concentrate everything around the kite recent developments Next, Primark, Pioneer Place and work from say Road Vera island down it would be much better.

I saw Sheff Utd a few times on TV and four players stood out - Berge wasn't one of them. They were Ndiaye, Ahmedhodzic (who scored as many goals as Berge) Bogle and McAtee.
