Mike Garlick: King of the Clause!

Marx brothers called it the sanity clause but in this instance it’s the insanity clause.

We've just got £25m in, let's try and improve the team and stay in the league, what is this defeatist Andy Carroll talk. I don’t write this as a Carroll backer but most on here wanted us to sign a striker before the out of the blue sale of Wood. We now therefore need two strikers as well as RM & CM...

Chris Waddle count?

c0unt. Well there’s nothing in it.

minnieclaret

I’m the same as the OP but more than anything it is the product that is to blame.
Diving, cheating, lying, time-wasting, the mis-use of VAR by the current crop of awful officials.
I watch more rugby now.

I really hope we don’t try and sign him. I would say he his mid table championship level but even that might be a stretch. I can only assume it’s to come in to replace Pieters leaving in the summer.

Or Ben Mee!

minnieclaret

One of the main reasons we have fallen down the table over recent years is the money that wealthier promoted clubs have spent. Wolves were excellent, Villa stayed up and are now improving, Saints have new money to spend, CP and BHA haven’t been tight and all play good attacking football that could b...

I'm pretty sure the transfer happened late July/early August as I was lying on a beach with my girlfriend in the south of France when I looked at the back page of an English newspaper I'd just bought. I was so amazed/angry I went to a payphone to ring home to check it was true. When I got home, I w...

Only caught the last two mins but comms was saying Zaha had shown enough to get a start. Hopefully that wraps Max in cotton wool.

Interesting to see Harry Wilson, a signing Dyche is known to have turned down from Garlick, absolutely ripping up the Championship this year with Fulham.

He ripped up the championship at Derby as well but did sweet fanny adams in the PL.

Is he still in chokey?

He died in January 2021. No tears were shed.

minnieclaret

Totally ambivalent about this sale. For all the fuss about his 10 goals a season the primary striker, in any side, in any division, should be scoring more and very few of them were special goals. He also missed more sitters than he scored. I do feel he’s missed Ash Barnes alongside him more than man...

RIP Ronnie. Died at 78 from cancer. Some wonderful songs produced by her later husband.

Dobo was a shocker but the following March we were top of the league.
Taffy was a shocker but the way he celebrated when Derby won ont’Turf shortly after turned me off him.
Ralph was the one that hurt the most. He was a one man team at the time.

Are you sure he was out of contract in the summer?

Thought I’d read it earlier in the thread. Could be wrong.

minnieclaret

Er shouldn’t that have been done a couple of months ago Illegally unless they had asked our permission. Even at this stage I think he can only talk to foreign clubs as an OOC in Summer. They must have asked. £25m is a lot of money for a guy that will be bench warming in 8 weeks until Wilson gets hu...

minnieclaret

“Unable to compete” not sure what the reasoning is for that. We are in a window so sell one buy one. We also have experienced pros doubled up for every position. As there is zero confidence in the current team it might even be to our benefit.

minnieclaret

Has any club ever come in for Ben Mee? Supposedly on silly wages I’d be amazed if he can get a better offer elsewhere. He might not have had his best season but none of them have.
Up or down he has to stay as our leader on the field.

He’s played as though he was injured all season. There is every possibility he will fail the medical.

BBC4 Saturday 9pm 2eps of 6.
Hidden Assets. A CAB investigation set in Ireland and Belgium.
We’ve had it over here on RTE and it’s a decent show.

Another we’ve had that I’ve never seen listed for UK was Bloodlands. James Nesbitt as a Belfast cop investigating a resurrected case from the troubles.

Fantastic body of work behind him but Life On Mars is my stand out.

I’d like to thank whoever recommended this on the Gomorrah thread, that I can’t find!
Different style than Gomorrah. More sunshine and daylight and business corruption over drug gangs but an excellent watch.

How dare people have a different opinion to you. Does that mean that they’re not real supporters?

But they don’t have opinions. They just sit and cry in their beer. Poor dears.

You ok? Absolutely fine just sick of reading the negative sh1te on here. I SUPPORT Burnley end of. I don’t pick the team, I don’t choose the tactics. I leave that to a guy who knows what he's doing.

If ever there was a season to get out early this is it. Fixture backlog already. Likelihood of more to come. Chance of injuries and suspensions.
Here is a list of the last 24 winners, only two real upsets. I have no interest in it at all.

The interest in the FA Cup can be seen by Skys fixture list.
I think broadcasters have stopped highlighting any event covered by a rival channel.

What’s wrong with Derby? I quite like them. Club with plenty of history and I like their new ground and the two good ale pubs the other side of the rail station. I have in fact got a bet on Rooney keeping them up. I know it’s a long shot but he is doing an excellent job there under extremely diffic...

Good.
The third round tie 1972 with Liverpool, 0-0 but what a match.

Bad.
The Newcastle semi 1974.
The Watford qf when we didn’t turn up.

Was it an Everton replay when Willie Irvine had his leg broke? If so add that to the bads.

As he took them down twice and they have never been close to decent in all the time he was there. If he takes Derby down I’ll be more than happy.

Divock Origi leaving Liverpool. Wanted by 3 Italian clubs but would prefer to stay in PL. OOC in Summer. Fee should be reasonable, wages possibly not. Would be superb for us.

minnieclaret

Fabulous footballer at his best, virtually unstoppable. Sadly his best days were behind him when he landed in Burnley. Could still deliver wonderful crosses but they started coming in from deeper positions. Along with Kevin Reeves the only two ex-City players that earned their corn.

Bournemouth probably matched what we offered as they can afford to. Christie was never going to be offered the same salary as other players anyway.

That move was more likely down to playing time and promotion probability.
