Martinez was brilliant yesterday. Not sure what his TT is like but he could be another grand tour GC contender at Ineos if he's ever given the chance.

I was on the train organised by Beeky and Colne Clarets. Only just made kick off Me too. Think we spent longer sat at Crewe station than we did in the stadium. Also went to the SVT final on the train with Beeky. We had the best seats in the stadium, front row of the top tier bang on the halfway lin...

What amazed me was if I remember correctly there was about 82,000 there for a match between two 4th division sides which beat the crowd for the England v Scotland international just prior. I think, although stand to be corrected that there wasn't a bigger attendance at Wembley after that game as it...

He would be showing a lack of ambition if he didn't go to palace now. As much as I'd like him to stay I would also be excited by a new manager and new style of football. You never know it could work out good. If both positions at Burnley & Palace were empty and you asked any manager to pick a job 1...

You’ll never stop it whilst you’ve got a hole in your backside, people will always miss penalties & sitters & get sent off & be born with different coloured skin ect ect, I’m just using trigger examples, so you either continue doing the same thing & keep experiencing the same problems or you go dow...

Not think Burnley are a strong contender for relegation?

I think SD would be confident that he would achieve a higher finish with Burnley than Palace next year.

Where has Rashford wilfully invited racial abuse?

Try and keep up. He has a twitter account, that means he's fair game.

TheFamilyCat

If previous abuse history is apparent in most cases that’s the case, if everytime I walk into the same pub & a same bloke who’s tougher than me keeps punching me in the nose, I’d avoid the pub. If you like to keep your nose intact it tends to be a wise course of action. You'd be happy as the victim...

TheFamilyCat

Looks like I failed.

Quick question though. In what way are people "wilfully inviting abuse"?

TheFamilyCat

Anybody with a modicum of intelligence would realise that’s the solution but instead let’s all persist with something that gives us trouble & carry on moaning about something we are all in control of. It’s like persistently suffering from heartburn but continuing to eat vindaloos & phalls. I'm goin...

Tomorrow's a flat stage which should give Bernal an opportunity to recover.

Almost 10 minutes and no mention of derisory so far, is this a record ?

I don't know about derisory but I, for one, am embarrassed.

TheFamilyCat

One thing that really interests me is the reaction from Stoke fans. They are saying 25-30m is his real value. Must be some player if that’s true. Can’t say I know too much about him to judge other than seeing him play once earlier in the season. Football fans do tend to talk a lot of **** though.

TheFamilyCat

Amazing that a central defender only makes 29 tackles in a season.

TheFamilyCat

Who do we think have been some of the best signings this season. Obviously excludes us as we only made one. For me Leicester-Forfana West Ham-Coufal, Souchek, Lingard, Dawson Saints-Wolcott Newcastle-Wilson and Willock Brighton-Wellbeck Man Utd-Cavalli WBA-Gallagher Villa-Konsa,Cash and Watkins Pal...

115 but ran out of time. Reckon I'd have got a few more with time to go through them again.

Shame I missed Burton, would have given me four answers!

Thank God for that. He'll never find out how much all the other England players earn now.

Has a cash buyer I certainly won't be putting any of my money into such a depreciating asset as an electric car. I honestly can't see myself ever buying an electric car, I couldn't be arsed with charging the bloody thing. Just imagine Fulham away and having to charge the bugger three times and stil...

Very emotional first ever win for todays victor. He looked to be crying with 400m to go. As predicted changes at the top of the heap. Fabulous last half hours racing. Think I'd have been crying if I tried to ride up there! Bernal was fantastic again. Yates further from the lead but still a good day...

I don't know why but I'm pleased to see former league clubs get back into the league. Probably for nostalgic reasons from our 4th division days.

How many Englishmen have won a league championship this season?

Stones, Walker, Sterling & Foden. Guessing Rangers have one or two. Any others?

My money’s unsurprisingly on Egan ( he owes me after the disastrous tour last year) but I think Yates is holding back and might have a little blast this week.
Great stage tomorrow

Mentioned on commentary today that Yates hasn't been well so will be interesting to see how that plays out.

Nuno leaving Wolves --‐----‐-> Richard Eckersley's transfer to Burnley.

Only on UTC.

TheFamilyCat

I don't care what the owners set out, a solid midtable finish is about right for them especially after they lost one of the best strikers in the league to injury. You're probably right based on realistic expectations but they failed miserably against the owner's targets (if I recall the targets cor...

The Jimenez injury and Jota leaving has hurt them immensely, still a decent season for them.

Is it a decent season for them? Didn't their owners set out some wildly optimistic targets; Europe then CL within 4 years or something?

TheFamilyCat

Been a good race so far, Wednesday's stage on the gravel sections was great viewing.

Tomorrow will be killer, one of the toughest climbs of any race.

Bernal and the whole IG team look very strong.

The commentators' love-in with "Remco" is starting to get a bit tedious though.

TheFamilyCat

I've spoken to a couple of safety officers at PL clubs over the last year and the amount of planning that has gone into this, from Project Restart and the brief reopening prior to Christmas to fans returning at all grounds this week, has been huge.

Fantastic thread. I hope our Ashley has taken the time to read this because I’m sure it would cheer him up no end.

He's already tapped Jakub up to be his defence counsel.

Legends/heroes - semantics. The visuals that the club release show the words Burnley Legends so I guess that’s where I got that word from.

Yes and it quotes the source, the source is an inside snake and shouldn't be commenting on private stories to the Sun newspaper.

Even if we keep Pope I would seek an experienced back up because I don't think BPF or Norris are yet ready for an extended spell in the team. Heaton is likely to sign for Manure so I suggest someone like Butland or Berkovic. one thing that struck me yesterday was that Norris had to tell the defende...

Are you suggesting he has no idea of how much the best players in the country earn?

There is also the matter of another club wanting to buy him.

I think everyone is forgetting you are innocent until proven guilty. Being charged does not mean you are guilty of the offence. Give Ashley the benefit of the doubt for the time being.

Just browsing club partnerships at other places and I've noticed we don't have an official snack partner.

Depends what you read but some reports have him on £25k per week. Others up to £47k per week.

His current salary is irrelevant.
