Watching a Burnley side owned by the Saudi state fielding a world eleven would be the most plastic, unauthentic thing I could imagine.

You're right tbh, it definitely suits a club like Newcastle more.

KRBFC

Newcastle fans are in a difficult spot because I’m not sure how easily I could just walk away from my club, or even stop attending. But surprised to see the number of people on here who would have no issue with our club being run by the Saudis if it brought success. Symptomatic of the today’s gener...

I know. What's your point? Some people taking the moral high ground likely voted and gave power to people, who then armed Saudi Arabia and dropped airstrikes in Syria. People like to sit and throw stones, we should look closer to home. Maybe we should question the morals of those sheep voters, are ...

Do you post this **** just so you can get a reaction and into an argument? How the hell does a football owner change a town for the towns people?

They dump millions of pounds into the local area, like the Thai owners at Leicester have done.

It's not the UK government that are taking over Newcastle United.

But people in this country vote said government into a position of power. Also, the UK is Saudi's 2nd largest arms dealer....

But if anyone is still in doubt, well for a start ALK don't murder people, ALK don't bomb civilians in Yemen and kill children, and ALK don't lock up and torture people who criticise them. Differences of degree are real differences. Get it? How many innocent people did the UK bomb and kill in Iraq ...

I want Burnley to be the very best team around and I'd love to see the local area thriving, there's only one way to do that.

No thanks. Burnley are one of the few proper success stories in football.

Chelsea just won the Champions League, that is success. Nobody outside of Burnley gives a toss how much money we've spent.

KRBFC

I remember a team somewhere that got taken over by wealthy Indian owners.. they were going to buy Ronaldinho and rule Europe.. can't think what happened to them Are you really comparing the millionaire Venkys to the trillionaire Saudis? I read this takeover would see them become the 2nd richest clu...

So if we're in League One in 3-4 years time, our income will be massively reduced because we're servicing god knows how much in club credit?

KRBFC

he's clearly talking about ethics and on that front he is a trillion percent correct. Also, you'll never win an argument by calling someone an idiot What does ethics have to do with footballers pay? they're part of a gazillion £ sport, they are paid accordingly and inline with the revenue generated.

KRBFC

Burnley bring in £130m a year income from the TV, you're stupid if you believe the players don't deserve a fair cut of that.

Burnley can sell Dwight Mcneil to another club for £25m+, but you believe he should be paid a Doctors salary?

He deserves to be paid what he's worth in the industry.

KRBFC

It’s bonkers complete madness the money that’s involved, no logical understanding to what a careworker earns as an example & a footballer, I’d be in favour of a complete boycott with everything to drop the money to a reasonable sensible level no footballer should ever earn more than a doctor or a n...

We would be missed when absent. Everton are now, not dissimilar to our style. That is Benitez and yet he is lauded. The Prem want big city teams with big modern stafiums to look good on TV.

I'm surprised they don't steal officials from other countries and sign them to contracts.

What a league the PL is at the very top, incredible teams, the standard has never been higher.

Comes from a James Milner throw in who shouldn't even be on the pitch, well done referee

How was that not a yellow card, then referee gives Liverpool a soft free kick to send Pep over the edge.

Have you seen the ageing dross SD has at his disposal ? You can’t make a silk purse out of a sows ear

He signed and kept these players mate

KRBFC

The positives today were Collins looked really good and Brownhill played well. I'm not sure praising just 2/14 players is really a positive though

I'm bored already. Take it easy.

Did Krul even make a single save apart from the speculative Mcneil effort? You can keep wishing and praying, the facts are the facts.

Did we play well? If you create plenty of chances but draw, then you're a team that knows they are creating enough chances and on another day it will fall for you and you'll get the points. You were referencing previous games and said ''we've drawn games we should've won''. Not winning while playin...

No it isn't.

If you can't win while playing well, when are you gonna win?

KRBFC

I am not usually a glass half full person but today I think we actually played well. We had loads of chances and just didn’t get the run of the green. We had them pinned back in their half for long periods and forced loads of corners. Yes the corners were poor as were Taylor’s numerous crosses but ...

Who thought we'd beat Man United at Old Trafford and ruin Liverpool's record at Anfield. We were minutes away from beating Leeds and had Cornet stayed on, we'd have beat Leicester. We've drawn games we should have won, and lost some games we should have at least drawn. Drawing games you should've w...

Westwood scores well on here because fans love running and booting it in the air, they don't know any better.

KRBFC

You rated Westwood a 3? They had an identical performance Brownhill looked to run in dangerous areas, pass and move, advance the team up the field. I thought Westwood looked to smash it into the channels and give the ball back to Norwich. Zero composure from Westwood, zero tempo setting. Brownhill ...

4 wins in 27, no home wins since January, setting a club record in the process, barely looked like scoring against the one team worse than us, on the occasions we do take the lead, we don't hang on to it. Not much going for us is there? I was wondering why fans on here were claiming 4 wins in 27 is...

Brownhill was our best player and the main positive was that Collins look very comfortable and played well.

Agree with that, that was Brownhills best game for us, he was everywhere. Scoring him 5 or lower is clearly biased hatred nonsense

Same with all these people on YouTube, they've had to continue to evolve as the years have gone by to ensure they stay relevant. So they stop doing just gaming videos or unboxing items and they move on to live action videos as well to keep the subscriber numbers coming in. My son is looking at doin...

I don't mind new ideas in the marketing, at least they're trying to grow social channels.

KRBFC

Imagine watching Ashley Barnes upfront every week and thinking ''yeah, that goalscoring Tammy Abraham fella isn't good enough for us''

KRBFC

Some Burnley fans didn't think Jack Grealish was good enough for us when he was at Villa in the Championship. The same applied when Jesse Lingard was mentioned. Harry Winks would get into our midfield, no problem at all. The way some of the idiots talk on here, you'd think we have Seedorf and Pirlo...

Another hyped up Spurs "rising star " not good enough for a poor team like Spurs and definitely not what we need

Oh yeah, like Lingard, Abraham and Hudson-Odoi

KRBFC

Based upon current performances I would have to agree but in general I would say Pope is a better keeper. A lot these days does count on ability to play out but for me keeping the ball out of the net and dominating the area is more important. Pope hasn't been keeping the ball out of the net, Ramsda...

I like the idea tbh, gives fans the chance to travel to watch their side and also will only boost finances/reach/viewing figures etc.

KRBFC

It's genuinely surprising how little football managers see, do they completely ignore what they see from players and just pick based on previous loyalty or something? How Eric Dier is a Spurs central defender i'll never know, how many times do we need to see him all over the place for managers to se...

I wouldn’t say they are all better goalkeepers than Pope. More desirable yes (kicking), but not better. That’s why Pope suits us. He’s on a slight dip in form but he has previously given some awesome performances for us. They're all better all around goalkeepers than Pope, you can argue 1 or 2 on t...
