And there is part of the issue, cycling is still not clean. They have just developed newer better ones. I think it was 3 years ago the peloton set the fastest ever TdF. The riders even set some of the fastest climb time too. EPO set a very high bar for what could be achieved, a bar that has been be...

He has been in the squad, probably for the best part of 6 months now. He may be there as a training aid for Mee and Tarkowski, but he still has to play in the training games, renowned for their intensity, and closeness to real life, he will still be playing alongside a striker he can learn off, and...

And so ends the thread. This should’ve been the second reply and the thread locked.

I haven’t made any nasty comments. You have a history of creating lies and spreading them on this messageboard. I have compared the stats of Corks premier league career against Brownhills. The simplest form of comparison possible, I am not trying to fall out with anyone. You asked what sample size ...

Thanks. Interesting...

I think (yes I think), Tarks has a big part of this deal. Once we know about Tarks we will know about Jones.

So Jones is still coming in then ?

I think so yes.

But when everyone is doing it, what’s the alternative? Smoking, drinking, drugs, racism, whatever is your tonic, it’s all wrong we all do it because of the pressures around us. You need to read a lot more about cycling, the culture, the European snobbery, the European racism towards the US and Briti...

Arnt you too busy making up rumours about this football club to be paying attention to this page? I posted the stats on the Brownhill thread. Statistically Cork is better in nearly every single statistic. But that doesn’t suit your narrative so you just say people need to give there head a wobble. ...

It doesn't help when so much of the "info" you pass on turns out to be total nonsense. The way you present the "info" is laughable. I make it clear what’s mine and what’s someone else’s.

He is to be admired for this? Decent honourable athletes with integrity dumped their careers because they couldn’t make a living trying to cleanly keep up with a drugs cheat. He most certainly is not to be admired. We don’t need to look at anything else he may have done, it was done by cheating. Th...

Daniel, Do you honestly think that Sean Dyche would put a player on the pitch if he didn't see something in that player? Not at all, I think there must be potential in abundance for a manager such as Dyche to trust him in and around the 1st team squad and on the pitch But potential, is just that. I...

absolute nonsense, one lad has just gone to Barrow who are fighting for their life at the bottom of league 2, he's hardly kicked a ball for us so why have they taken him ? Benson was at Grimsby last season having hardly ever or never kicked a ball for us and was outstanding - they took a chance on ...

Was in awe of him, especially after reading “it’s not about the bike”...turns out he was right. It wasn’t about the bike... it was about the drugs. Now, he’s just a drugs cheat.

You dont hear much on Bradley Wiggins these days... You do if you look. Considering he’s going through a messy divorce with a new misses in tow. He’s wisely keeping his head down. Caths also battling her own demons and then there’s kids to think of. Think I saw him about to announce something with ...

Danieljwaterhouse

Agree with everything you have said. Fact of the matter is we score more goals with Cork in the team. What’s your sample size? Are the games comparative? Or is Mitrovic and better striker than say, Werner, he’s scored more goals in English football, so HE MUST BE. Some serious head wobbling needs t...

Jack Cork steps straight back into central midfield in place of Brownhill Josh as done well but imo he is not yet quite ready for Premier league football, he needs to improve his offensive play Can't believe anyone would suggest Jack for right side midfield when we have had problems with central mi...

On being an active squad member of a premier league club, having made a couple of first team appearances from the bench. That pedigree would outstrip a lot of players open to League One moves, and is not unreasonable to suggest he may be suitable. He’s not an active member, he’s been given a brief ...

Danieljwaterhouse

Daniel, on a completely different topic, where is the signing that you were talking about the other week? It was second hand info, as stated, so who knows?! I was told it was a championship right back, who was having a medical. You get slated on here for providing info that’s passed onto you. Peopl...

6 months in league one would do him the world of good then we can look at him next season imho

On what pedigree is he moving to league one under? Why should a team take him?

We’ve a massively over inflated ‘we’re premier league’ ego when it comes to youth players.

You are 2 times behind a broken clock for being right. Nobody will do or have any need to apologise to Walter Mitty

That’s funny, but everyone calls for me to apologise all the time, which I have when I was wrong.

Save this post, and we will see how it ages

Danieljwaterhouse

He’s really not What makes you think he isn’t? He can’t play in a two in the premier league. His legs are going, his head can’t compensate enough to be effective. He’s technically good, but gets played around far too much. He’s a great pro to have around the ‘group’ and on that basis he has a place...

Danieljwaterhouse

Surely you shouldn't be trying to put anyone down after your raft of incorrect "facts" over the last few weeks. The two are entirely unrelated, and I’ve made it very clear, what I believed to be a fact, and what I thought was second hand or dubious information. I’m not putting anyone down, it’s a s...

Danieljwaterhouse

He looked good against a championship midfield, he’s a championship midfielder at best.

Danieljwaterhouse

Cork still has to convince me that his legs haven’t gone. There’s no way he could cover the ground that Josh Brownhill does. And that is such an important part of the way we play. Cork like Barnes has been a great player for BFC, sadly his time is coming to an end. There’s a place for both in the i...

and yet the lad who signed from the Championship for 6 million quid still has 10 more interceptions than Kante, who cost Chelsea something like 30 million, has won the World Cup and earns 150k a week The very best players, read the game ahead of time. If a player has high tackle stats at CDM I’d wa...

You honestly reckon Brownhill could play for United or city.

I do, I think he’d be more likely to play in a United team, than city.

I think he’ll be a Milner of his generation.

I’d be worried that Koop, once he’s calmed down, might relook at that display by Tarks and be trying to look at him as a third option to replace Matip.

Danieljwaterhouse

Absolutely spanked.

Danieljwaterhouse

I don’t know who it is, what position. Just that his medical was today and that it was to be passed on at the presser. First singing under a new era is always a big deal. Pace et al will want it to be a positive show of intention. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I will admit my transfer source has no links with the club...

Think we’ll have to agree to disagree DW You can teach an older dog new tricks or st least improve what they struggle with, if you can’t it makes a mockery of football coaching and all training - not just in football.

Couldn’t disagree more - otherwise why would anyone practice If you can’t write with your left hand - practice for 2 hours a day - evaluate the results in 6 months and guess what. Same with trapping a ball or using your “wrong” foot You’d be proficient, but you wouldn’t be natural. Have a read of B...

Danieljwaterhouse

No excuse for poor technical skills - you just practice them until you get better, then practice some more until you get good, then practice some more until you become excellent. They have all day every day to do it Really? That’s not true, not even in the slightest. You can track technical ability...

Danieljwaterhouse

Anybody with one working eye can see the OP has a valid point. Dwight and Charlie work well down the left but the right hand side is all off the cuff and then lump a crap cross into god knows where. Our midfield never get beyond the front two. It would help if we passed to a teammate. All things th...

Don’t we all! Good chatting, thanks for taking the feedback on. Fingers crossed we can both rate him a 10 off the back of a hat trick on Saturday!

This has been some top class moderating. Exactly the way things should be handled.

We often bemoan, and rarely praise, but this is worthy.

Danieljwaterhouse

I don't think Tarks will go till summer, but Tomori is definetely worth looking at for his replacement if Chelsea are willing to let him go. Tarks is one of the only top class Cb’s that isn’t European cup tied. Silly money could arrive at the chairman’s door. Don’t think Dyche will be falling in hi...

Danieljwaterhouse

Fine point, but then you want our midfield to dominate and they don’t. You’d want our cb’s to push though and force the midfield on, which Tarks does, but Mee would be found out positionally. Our fullbacks are limited so you’d expose them as they readdress their positional decisions.

Danieljwaterhouse

True, but you can only play what’s in front of you. What I saw suggested he has something we don’t in the first team - raw pace. So I’d keep him and test him against tiring prem defences. Think it’s so important for the U23’s to get opportunities to be in and around the squad rather than shipped ou...

And so was Vydra.

I take your point, but Vydra scored, and is proven in English football. His goals to minutes says so.

Danieljwaterhouse

Unless Vydra goes we don't need a striker. Rodriguez is due back into the fold and Mumbongo looks a prospect. Burnley FC can not justify buying a new striker when somebodies form dips - and let's face it that's all that's happening here. Barnes and Wood have contributed massively towards us reachin...

Danieljwaterhouse

Wood is a good striker for OUR system. He’s gold in our system. In the pragmatic system that Dyche deploys week in week out, and that has seen us be very successful. You can’t just drop a player into this system and hope they’ll be a success. Salah would struggle in this system. He’s flown at Roma A...

I think we need to remember how distracted Tarks appeared when he thought he was off. A window opening has a strange affect on players. Minor issues become niggles and niggles escalate.
