Palace - 30% possession and one shot on target but it could well be enough today Vs City

Chelsea take the lead at Newcastle

GodIsADeeJay81

From this day forth, it's the new match day ritual and you're no longer allowed in (assuming we don't throw it away 2nd half)

We clearly have better luck when you're not there

Scores goals out the ass, no idea why Parker didn't fancy him, was left on the bench for the playoff final if I remember correctly and barely figured last season when they needed goals. 18 goals before November is ridiculous. He's never been that prolific in the top flight. The championship is perf...

Not disagreeing KRBFC…….some serious money sunk into that list but given achievements over his tenure he deserves surely to be cut a bit of slack given events …….but you’re not wrong that ultimately he has to deliver……… UTC and let’s hope tomorrow brings that win, even a “scruffy one”!

Christian Eriksen: Inter Milan midfielder unable to play for club after cardiac arrest - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/59096086

He will probably be allowed to leave for free, but it remains to be seen if he will face similar issues in other leagues.

GodIsADeeJay81

which is exactly my point, where is the forward thinking in that? we are putting tissue paper over gaping holes by signing players who are old, on big wages and not good enough? What happens when Cork isn't good enough (like now)? Where's the striker to replace Barnes? This is the part where you ne...

They were two separate deals, it wasn't a swap deal. Shows how little you know..... Anytime you're ready, please point out where I've stated it was a swap deal. I haven't, because I'm not sure it was, I just know we did better out of that sale of Vokes and signing of Crouch than Stoke did. Expert o...

I hope Sidney knows more about cars than he does about football or you're in deep trouble

You're not telling me anything I don't already know. And no professional footballer should be content to sit on the bench, this is so wrong. Crouch was intending to retire at the end of that season, we just needed him for 6 mths. He didn't cause any aggro etc. We got a shed load of money for Vokes ...

GodIsADeeJay81

So why didn't SD just offer Reid a coaching job? Why bother with Crouch, a couple of million off the Vokes fee but we could have looked at a younger player with potential, who in the short term could have sat on the bench until the 85th minute. We needed a player for the bench for 6 mths who was co...

GodIsADeeJay81

Walters - injury Crouch - great deal, for free and we got shot of Vokes for millions. Reid - didn't do much but it's been explained time and again Dyche values certain people because they help keep the dressing room Stable. All you're doing is showing how little you know, or understand with that rant.

GodIsADeeJay81

We didn't pay that much for Gibson, it was probably about half.
Hendrick - integral part of the team during his time here, regardless of your opinion about him I'd suggest we probably miss him.

Brady - that injury did for him, that cannot be planned for.

GodIsADeeJay81

To add, some pistons were bent with initial problem I was right then, the crank went which is why the head had to come off. I would've put a recon engine in then tbh, or 2nd hand one that comes with some sort of guarantee. Having to put in new pistons with con rods, crank bearings/shells and assume...

I didn't mind Boyd, wasn't the most technical player but you knew you'd be getting 100% the majority of the time just from seeing his running stats.

Did us well, and from the looks of it had a reasonable career.

I wish him well in his future endeavours

2020 club accounts. We broke even with revenue of 134 million. Wage bill was 100 million (rose by 13m from season before). I assume wages are possibly even higher now with the inclusion of Cornet, Roberts, Collins and new contract for McNeil. We had players leave the previous summer who weren't rep...

GodIsADeeJay81

£100m? Where do you get that figure from? 20211028_225403.jpg Overall wage bill for the entire club was £100Million in 19/20 I'd say yes we do alright in regards to value for money, given the length of stay in the PL. We are currently in transition though, so with the new signings and more to come ...

GodIsADeeJay81

Initial problem was rattling engine which led to total breakdown. Car is still at garage awaiting o ring replacement tomorrow. They suggest all 4 being placed as they dont know which is at fault. Erling ones x 4 at £15 each plus 140 for labour Rattling engine? So the timing chain then, which is qui...

They're just trying to deflect from the whistle blowing going on and their failure to deal with some of the crap on their apps.

Out of interest, what was the initial problem, because it's odd to replace a coil pack along with a head gasket etc? Last time I did a cylinder head rebuild on a petrol I checked the condition of the fuel injector seals simply out of habit and because they were a pig to get at and it turned out the ...

They've just sold the training ground to themselves as a way of dropping money into the club again, without having to convert debt into shares etc like the normally do. They wanted to sell it to a property developer but that didn't go down well with the locals. I'd expect to see that one revived whe...

Come on DJ even you can’t be saying our lot are better than Billing, Lerma, Pearson and Lewis Cook. All of them midfielders walk into our starting eleven.

Dunno, they're a league below for a reason and no one seems to have rushed to buy them from what I saw.

He hasn’t had an injury since January 2020.

He hasn't played much since then either, 1000 mins in total.
He only played 35 mins for West Ham in 2020 and left them in the summer of 2020
The rest at Bournemouth after joining them in Jan 21, predominantly as a sub.

If this happens, it would appear the club are valued at £600-700 million, not bad for a club who don't even own their own ground

I don’t think many people are actively Dyche out. However I don’t think Pace will hang around, his investment depends on Burnley staying up. If we go down I’m sure he will be running back to America quick enough Impressive. Pace won't flee at the first relegation, he'd need to sell the club first a...

No, it was just a question because ANY other manager in the Prem with those stats would be gone new contract or not, I am sure there will be clauses in the contract to mitigate any payoffs.

Norwich haven't sacked Farke and he's got far worse stats.
Apart from that though, you're right

Pity we did not move for Will Hughes before he went to Palace. Big improvement on Cork, still got the legs and loads of experience. He wasnt expensive either

I'd forgotten he went to Palace.
Yet to make an appearance for them, I'd be tempted to try and loan him in January

GodIsADeeJay81

Are you seriously comparing our midfield to arsenals? Our midfield is bottom end championship standard. The point is we can’t get anyone else until January. Wilshere could sign today and play at the weekend. In that case he is a definite improvement so even if it’s just a 9 month contract we should...

Puts to bed the oft repeated claim that people don't have a choice about watching Burnley/football teams.

True, but they tend to play a brand of football that is better than ours We have morphed into Stoke under Pulis, and its not a good watch at all We made an effort to get different players in this last summer to improve our style, AMN and Christie being the two we missed out on. I suspect next coupl...

A bit depressing, but with the addition of the Roberts long throw, we are now essentially Stoke Its not great and I hope we can return to the more exciting but pragmatic football we are capable of as soon as possible Long throw ins are seen as a viable tool, hence why a number of clubs have employe...

The only surprise is it took so long, but it's finally happened.

GodIsADeeJay81

Not surprised it's happened, it's a rule in most other countries.
Maybe it won't be a bad thing in the long run, Dyche might even use 5 from time to time

GodIsADeeJay81

This is where I come across as really naive, but won't Newcastle's potential purchases be capped by FFP? Amusingly Ashley ran the club so well financially that they've got more wiggle room than most at the min. They can spend several hundred million over the next year or so and still be within FFP ...

I think the word ‘fee’ is confusing. Loan fee, doesn’t include wages normally.

Some loan fees include a contribution to the players wages, we had Nugent on loan and paid a % of his wages and the loan fee covered the rest of it pretty much

Maitland-Niles stayed after a chat with Arteta, who promised him more game time.
So far he's barely had any, starting just once and the rest coming on late in the 2nd half.

Very realistic chance he will want to move in January at this rate.

I think his contract runs out in 2023
