Agreed Dave, put simply England have no idea how to play 5 day test cricket.
How’s their record been? Under this no idea how to play test cricket theory?
Their problem is they pick a small number of players who are not good enough…. Namely Bairstow.

Will The Yorkshire lads actually contribute anything positive at any stage…. Big drops and no runs is all
they keep contributing so far.

India a man down now as Ashwin has had to leave the game.
Seems to be a growing rumour that Stokes will allow them to make a like for like substitute and Washington Sundar will play.

You’ve got to be positive at times, Dan. Take Ben Duckett for example. What a glorious innings and now looking set for a 150… perhaps even a double century. Positivity breeds positivity
Reported.... hope you get banned.

I believe it's the advent of 5G radio waves.... it eliminates semi skimmed milk bacteria, meaning your milk will never go off.
Or they fry your brain, so you can't smell off milk any more.... maybe that's the situation.

Move Twine and BPF into the second category and rename that category "whether they come back depends on whether we get a suitable offer which gives us a profit" and I think that is about right. Twine and BPF I think might be options next season, e.g. if Trafford is sold BPF presumably comes into ou...

My guess would be
BPF, Roberts, Weghorst, Twine, Egan-Riley, Churlinov, Bastien - aren't likely be back at Burnley
Mcnally, Costellor and Obafemi - won't be back if can be sold for a profit
Zaroury, Mellon and Dodgson - likely to return

Odds reflect what bets have been placed. If I put £1 million on us to stay up today, the odds will change massively. Not because the chances of us staying up have changed, but because the bookmakers need to cover my bet in case it wins. Odds reflect the betting patterns, not reality. Hence why the ...

If there's not an awareness, they could always look at the betting markets. Burnley are median price 1/6 to be relegated... or there is around an 86% likelihood of relegation happening.

Another pair of fails from the overweight Yorkie. At least he’s not dropping them behind the stumps as well in this series.

For a start, 111m euros is £95m. Quite a few of them are also incorrect. Ramsey was £12m, not £14m. Amdouni’s €18m will undoubtedly include bonus clauses. Odobert was reported at €11m not 12.

Quite a few erroneous facts unchallenged of late on there.

60’s was always a favourite… chance for a spectacular volley to bounce down off the crossbar, which was often the frame of the swings.

This Burnley way over values style over substance….. but when people pay £90m for players like Anthony, sancho, Aubemayang etc…. You can see why it fits the business model.
