Burnley1989

Not convinced they’re a deterrent these doorbell cameras, folk can now see the bloke who’s burgling him with his hood up and face covered, even when face is clear the police won’t use it as evidence either.
Just seen a waste of time

Usually deals are done so they don’t have to pay them up. Wasn’t it Man U who were paying for about five managers at the same time? What we do know is that it would be very costly to sack him as it was when Sean Dyche was sacked. Him getting us relegated will massively effect that figure though, I ...

Burnley1989

Yes, just about my thoughts. There's blind faith and knee jerk reactions, most of us are somewhere in the middle. My judgement will now be based on the summer window and the two or three glaringly obvious positions where recruitment is required with the right type of player. Hopefully we don't have...

Just a word for Vernon Masara, the goalscorer. Only 16 and has now been fast-tracked into the U21s.

Well done Vernon!

I’ve only seen him twice, looks to have the potential needed to make league football, very quick on the ball.

So you don't think we will get the money back on any of them?, or make big profits on the ones we paid a lot less for that you haven't mentioned. Odobert could go for more than we paid, should we decide to sell, probably more if we keep him a season, for example Your wasting your time, they’re out ...

Burnley1989

Is anyone else sick of teams cheating? Everton, Forest, Man City and probably Chelsea all in breach of FFP/PSR rules. Even with points deductions to some of these teams it will hardly affect their league status. This shows that it is worth breaking the rules and cheating for the clubs involved. I a...

Burnley1989

One thing that is clear, some UTC posters have really lost the plot and James Trafford is spoiling their quality of life. The level of knowledge of the art of goalkeeping is now above the levels we saw when Hart was 1st choice. Some comedy gold on here. The boards gone a little mental, we now even ...

That's just the way of the world, long gone are the days when everyone wore suits. You can be wearing well over £1000 worth of clothing in just jeans, trainers and a top with a baseball cap. I remember 15 years ago you couldn't get in a bar in town wearing trainers (even Lacoste polos were banned in...

5 in my close mates WhatsApp group didn't bother going on and watched at home which is disappointing, although I was half tempted, it was a nice day and what else was I going to do?

Burnley1989

Bit harsh to blame Pace, he's backed VK, who's made poor signings and decisions.

Burnley1989

I dont see what VK obviously does in him, I'm not even convinced he's a good championship GK but when you're playing the system we are and he's expected to be on the ball a lot, getting on his back is only going to cause him to make more mistakes so I'm not sure what fans are trying to achieve there.

Burnley1989

When did we become a fan base that boo's our own players? You need to take a good look at yourself if you're doing that.

Its a game ffs

Everything tells you to concentrate on our own problems and increasingly miserable season. But it requires real discipline not to find this a bit funny.

I would love it, purely because I don’t want to play them next season.

Saying that, the championship is brilliant for playing proper NW clubs

Burnley1989

I think we are clutching at straws to find some enjoyment if we are focusing on them getting relegated whilst we stink out the premier league and look likely to finish rock bottom

Burnley1989

I’d be amazed if it’s open for another 6 months, we don’t do quick and this isn’t a quick job either. You can see their Leica total stations that are set up in fields monitoring the drift and land movement on the bends, they probably need to close it to heavy wagons full stop tbh I was up at Nissan ...

Mee was excellent for us. But saying he was better than Tarkowski is stretching it somewhat.

It’s not just stretching it, it’s absolute nonsense

Burnley1989

I think the majority of us will renew, what else are you going to do on a Saturday?

Burnley1989

Still not sure where I stand with it, I need to listen to both sides really to form a view.
It’s a really sensitive subject

I remember that a few seasons back, in Sean Dyche's team, we had some great runners. Was it Scotty Arfield who always had the best distance covered stats?

George Boyd I think

I'd rather have fans wanting rovers to win a one off cup game, against a premier league team, which has absolutely no bearing on us whatsoever, than the so called Burnley fans who spend every waking hour on here, slagging off the team, owners, and manager of the club they allegedly support. Ditto, ...

I remember suggesting the Brentford model was the way to go on here a few years back (when we were PL and they were championship) and almost getting laughed off the board.

I think I remember also, if I remember correctly a very prominent member was one that called it out as rubbish

Burnley1989

I think this series has been a lot more competitive than normal but the last 2 games have very much been back to what we would usually see. They beat us in this game for example with 4/5 of there best players missing, I know we are missing Brook and Leach who would both have played and you could st...

India collapsing at 131/5 after cruising or 84-1, no boundaries hit for an incredible 25 overs

Looks like we’ve found a future star in Bashir, remarkable for a young lad that barely bowled in first class cricket.

Im wondering if its the younger supporters- under 30's who are the negative ones, these fans weren't watching Burnley in the 80;s when we we in the old fourth division- be interested to see a demographic, surely somebody as the data somewhere?

Funnily enough from my experience it’s the opposite.

Burnley1989

220 lead looks a long way away with this attack.

Who knows how the new ball will play on this wicket, the cynic in me thinks we needed a few more.

Burnley1989

I'm sorry to burst your bubble but Burnley has been the laughing stock of the PL. One lucky season finishing 10th won't change that. It's a terrible team and VK made you guys look good last season for the first time. Then to blame him for getting beaten by better teams with more money and better pl...

Are people starting to believe the information that I heard at the start of the season yet?

When fit, contractually, Trafford has to start!

There’s nothing else that can explain why Kompany won’t drop him.

No

Probably best not to trust what you say ,you obviously tell lies.

I can show you up if you like, would you like to know how many times you've mentioned him so far this year?

Burnley1989

It probably is the worse we've been at this level, I like Kompany but he's made so many huge mistakes with signings and selection.

I keep thinking he will turn it around but Ive seen nothing all season to suggest we are anything but a bottom 3 club.

I suggest you look at all the posts regarding Trafford this afternoon,one of the Trafford in brigade was suggesting that there were just 10 people on this board saying how bad the guy is.

I couldn't give a toss, I'm talking about your obsession, you literally talk about him 24/7.

Fill in chuffing blank (. )

Your obsession with him is a bit weird now.

Did it need yet another thread? Do you lack any attention at home?

Burnley1989

The thing that annoys me is Kompany puts all the blame on the class of the opposition, it’s his poor selection most of the time that’s costing us, I’m not sure he’s got a clue what most fans think

With some of the vitriol aimed his way by some of our 'supporters' I don't think he's ever going to recover as a BFC player.

Yep, think ref and VAR got it right, Brownhill didn't really have much choice but to try and stop him.

Instinct tells you to grab the player there, I’d expect 99% of us would have done the same unfortunately

I guess he just needs to get lucky with a manager..give him little to no money to spend then he can walk off with any profits the said manager manages to miraculously generate. Good gig.

That’s what a good businessman does
