Aston Villa is apparently the first to redesign their club crest under new Premier League guidelines. Interestingly, the guidelines suggest that fans must be consulted. Who or how many, I’m not sure. FAB? Anyway, credit to Villa, they look to have gone about their redesign the right way and they’ve ...

My understanding is that those affected were given an initial compensation payment whilst the Post Office and Government squabbles over agreeing full payments, meanwhile this has been going on for so long that some of the postal worker victims have now died. Their families continue the fight for so...

I really wouldn't want to stay in this division because someone got docked points,the only reason we should stay in this division is on merit.

If a team stays up by flouting the rules, have they done so on merit?

Stranger for me is that it’s Benson’s side of the pitch where we have struggled to find an effective option. JBL very hot and cold (mostly cold), JBG a solid option but not much of an attacking threat. All the others are better on the opposite flank. Benson’s downfall though appears to be his suscep...

I won’t believe it until their chairman comes up with a free Manuel Benson tweet.

I don’t necessarily find that cringe but wouldn’t be necessary with a walk out song. A walk out song that has, or could have, some Burnley associated lyrics, prompting a song from the crowd would be the ideal, for me. Dirty Old Town has been mentioned a few times, which I think has promise. Surely ...

I understand Greater London gets a lot of money for infrastructure repairs/upgrades, but in terms of £'s per person using the services its probably fair? Probably a fair comment in some respects. However, how much would the £ per person rate come down up here, if we had even a half way comparable p...

I'm deeply flattered by you interest. I can't honestly find anything to be positive about right now that's Club related, which probably explains it.

As soon as the rule came in this season that once the physio is on - the player concerned is off for 30 seconds, they all just stay down but dont call the physio. I think the second is more to stop players pulling this stunt, rather than someone hitting the deck for 15+ seconds randomly mid opposit...

That’s fine il leave this post for others to debate. Didn’t realise happy clapper was a derogatory term, I thought it meant a supporter that only sees the positives. Happy Clapper isn’t used in that sense - it’s used as a criticism - as you well know. It’s akin to the also annoying labelling of som...

DCWat

Big fan of the first rule. In two minds about the second. It will potentially encourage players with genuine injuries including head injuries to continue playing to avoid their team going down to 10 men during an important phase of the game. But glad to see something being done about players wastin...

Haha now the insults come out. Classic uptheclarets. The bullying will be along soon. Come on mods post like this are how it starts. Perhaps a little self reflection would help to avoid these sort of replies, as well. Debate the topic - less of the ha ha’s, happy clappers, etc. The tone of some of ...

Completely different scenario, not even remotely comparable. Even if we were to do a direct comparison, Dyche had nothing to spend. He was also exceptionally close to staying up that season. At no point This season have we looked anything other than cannon fodder. With Dyche you at least knew we st...

DCWat

It’s a very fair comparison two managers that have had a similar amount of games in this league? (I guess you could argue VK has got spend considerably more than Laws did and had longer with the squad). Just answer the question, would you stick with Laws? Would you have sacked Dyche during our firs...

DCWat

I think based on this season it’s safe to say we stand more of a chance of survival with cooper IMO. You haven’t answered my question about Brian Laws? By your logic, Dyche would have been potted at the end of (or perhaps before the end of) his first season in the Premier League. I dread to think w...

If only it was just corners (at either end) that was the sole issue. There are a variety of issues across the team, yet there seems to be little being done to solve many of them. It seems to be rinse and repeat, in the hope of a different outcome. Of course a huge part of the problem is personnel. I...

DCWat

That they do. Maybe they should put as much effort in to preventing this kind of thing as they do with their over zealous announcements about going on the pitch (which nobody does). They must know where these were sat. Ban every claret number that bought tickets for those seats for a start. Not to ...

DCWat

We’ve absolutely no chance of staying up.

Too many simply not good enough for this level. We’ve even longer than last season to know which division we will be playing in, next season.

Let’s hope that the planning and recruitment is more effective this time.

I'm surprised Kompany let Ash go given our striker situation at present. He can't be on that much money at Norwich?

Hmm, Kompany is a lot of things, but able to predict what our striker position would be months after letting Barnes go, isn’t one of them.

Sorry to hear that Tom Lockyer has collapsed again in the game at Bournemouth. Praying for a positive outcome.

I hate seeing stuff like this - glad to read that there were penalties dished out (hopefully very harsh penalties at that).

Perhaps read through spikes history of posting, any chance of a dig at the owners is never missed. Do you think it is an accurate comment that the club want's to be disliked ? I’ve no time, nor inclination to trawl through historical posts to make such an assessment. If context was needed to apprec...

DCWat

Yes, you can imagine it is really high up on the list of things to do in the day to day running of the club. Perhaps they should apologise daily for not being local, maybe even sell Royston Vasey FC scarves How have you reached that conclusion from the posts prior to yours? Is it small time to be p...

DCWat

We pick up far too many silly yellows, these days. There certainly seems to have been a change in mindset regarding yellow cards, since Kompany arrived.

I’ve not seen comparative figures, but I’d guess that our yellow (and red) cards per game is at a much higher level under Kompany than it was Dyche.

It's been a slower start to the season than most of us expected but I have a good feeling about the Brighton game.

Probably easier to say what we don't need. I’m not sure that’s the case, to be honest. We aren’t that far away from a pretty decent and well balanced squad. The most frustrating part is that the funds were there to ensure a balanced squad. In previous seasons, being a few players short of a genuine...

Moving some on, be that on permanent or loan deals, is the starting point. From there we really need to be looking at full backs, central midfield and a striker. If there are some incomings, I hope that at least one is an experienced, drag the team by the scruff of the neck type player. The way our ...

De Gea or Onana, I know which one I’d want in my team - it’d be the one currently sat in his arse with no club.
