That ball he played into open space on the left near the end should have resulted in a goal. Vokes (as has so often become the plot) messed it up. He's the one who I think has to go.

A Super League would require paying a franchise fee. Then, it would be just like North American sports. Without the chance of promotion/relegation, smaller clubs would just wither away.

Thanks, Royboy. So what I'm talking about already exists, just in a less formal way. I still think that if all of you minority shareholders got together in a more organized way that you would have more influence in the club. Just don't include KRBFC.

Re: Burnley worth buying
I think that the average supporter should be allowed to buy shares in the club, as long as it doesn't surpass a certain percentage. Put it in a Supporters Trust, and don't let the total exceed 30% of gross investment. I don't want KRBFC running the club.

In the middle of play, NBC cut away to replay that one-handed catch, just to point out that he had a fistful of the defender's facemask as he made the catch. Should have been off-setting penalties, and would have changed the game completely.
