You’d imagine genk will wait until they have had both legs of their champions league qualifier before they do any business with tresor

And Tresor himself might want to wait and see if he's giving up a CL campaign if he moves

The big shame for me is the awful-looking sponsor on the kids kit which is what I will have to look at on a daily basis for the majority of the next year. Hopefully this has just been mocked up and they can look to reduce the size at least. JJ Watt is already on social media showing off his kids’ n...

Playing devils advocate, if THB is available for 15m and yet we’ve gone for the untested Coulibaly, could it be that VK saw enough last season to NOT be interested in THB….? - Seems odd also that he would plump for O’Shea instead - unless THBs availability has only just materialised of course and no...

No he wasn't.
He had that purple patch in the last season under Dyche but overall he wasn't worth signing, I said as much when he arrived and nothing changed my mind during his two spells with us.

That Bournemouth game though (sigh)

James Garner? the central Midfielder who’s played 1 game as right wing back?

Too much of a maverick for my liking

Selby Claret

So Coulibaly deal is reported as agreed on BBC. Loan with option to buy at 15 million as is Trafford purchase I’ve now lost count of how many CB and GK’s we have. This is getting stranger and stranger by the signing. I am not complaining but I just don’t understand the logic Norris gone - replaced ...

Yes no idea where Luke came from.

Luke Steele was Barnsley keeper for many years

Selby Claret

I hope he stays. Luke Steele couldn’t even get in the Rovers team in lower Championship and struggled massively at Sunderland, yet last season he was arguably the best ball playing keeper in the Prem for Brighton. Not the best keeper but quite brilliant with his feet. Muric can certainly be a good ...

In my time watching Burnley we've had 5 England goalkeepers - Chris Woods, Paul Robinson, Nick Pope, Joe Hart and Tom Heaton. Obviously they weren't all capped whilst playing for us, but I bet we've had more England capped goalkeepers play for us than any other team. City have had (this century): J...

May be wrong ,but I can’t think of many players that have come directly from Utd ,and have been a success for us,possibly Eagles.

Michael Keane wasn’t so bad

Interesting how numbers evoke memories of players who - although they played in the role ‘typified’ by that number - never actually wore it Eg Blake never wore 10 for BFC (8 and 20) Other names on peoples lists include Briscoe Marney McNeil and Barton associated with numbers they never wore for the ...

I worked at The Royal Armouries in Leeds in the late 90s and the Waddle family came to visit not long after his departure from Turf Moor. His son was wearing a Sunderland shirt. Feeling brave I asked Waddle and his wife why he wasn't wearing a Burnley shirt to which his wife replied: "That thing's i...

Don't know about that question but I heard on commentary today that he's either one behind or level as our top scorer this century.

Level with Sir Robert Blake

He's being facetious Frank but let's try and put some meat on the bones on this droll thread:

We actually are Double Champions of the Championship and are now alongside Newcastle, Norwich, Reading, Sunderland and Wolves as the only clubs to win it more than once.

Fulham?

Selby Claret

Technically the EFL championship is the old Division One - so we’ve now won in 1921 1960 2016 and 2023

Imagine getting angry and wanting to fight because someone likes a team with a different coloured t shirt. Bizzare.

You’ve just nailed religion there in a nutshell too

Selby Claret

With fringe players they are often good enough for one or two to slot in to a functioning unit that’s ticking over nicely

It’s when you pick six or seven all at once that the team suffers and the unit stutters - as was evidenced for 10 years under Dyche with his cup selections

Selby Claret

Nobody to blame but ourselves really

Johann, Twine and Roberts should all score in that second half from 9 yds but Benny has to show them how it’s done from 25

Poor finishing regardless of the officiating

ESPN+ got this all wrong - they covering Millwall vs Bristol City. Should be us or Sheff Utd

Especially when you consider Millwall are playing Birmingham

I'm confused - didn't the top flight only start in 1992?

Selby Claret

Am I right in thinking there’s a double jeopardy rule now that means pen + red no longer happens - ie the pen is punishment enough

Therefore by committing the foul outside the area it benefitted us more for a free kick and a red than a pen and yellow

Or did I just make that rule up….??

Come on lads. Let’s get it over the line tonight, then win it on Monday.

By ‘win it’ on Monday do you mean the game or the title? Because only one of those two things can happen on Monday

Their number two keeper is cup tied so they go into the final with their number 3.

Their no 2 Dubravka, as well as being cup tied, will actually win a medal for Man Utd if they win as he played in the cup for them on loan

Barnes to bash them about and put us 4-0 up by 70th, Foster to come on and get a 20 minute hat trick and win the game 7-0.

Top of league streets ahead of everyone and yet this message board still is cluttered with pessimism
