In August though, we sold Keane for £20m and Gray for £18m so surely this amount is greatly understated, how can these accounts show a true and fair view? There is reference to Keane, Gray and others in the accounts but they were sold after the accounting yer so couldn't be included. The accounts a...

One of the players constantly targeted by the Burnley crowd - times when he got dogs abuse

Thread now closed and, hopefully, all the appalling racist comments have been removed.

That Met Police game was a shocker...they were better than us on the night ...no fluke. Tony will know , but Im sure Aiden O'Neill played that night.Always remember the parents of the Met Police lads after the game...some of them were in tears. As bad as they were, I wouldn't say they were better t...

The batsmen who aren’t really good enough to get into the test team but do on the basis that they slap the bowlers who aren’t really good enough for the test team all over the county grounds...

I remember watching the Youth Team lose at home in the Youth Cup to Metropolitan Police a couple of seasons ago. That was the nadir - worst Youth Team I've seen at Burnley in 50 years. There's certainly been progress since then. Huge progress since then. Still a long way to go but we are getting a ...

Lost 2-1. Much,much better in the second half and so unlucky to go out.

He’s kept up his excellent form from the sound of things. A Stanley supporting mate reckons he’s the best centre half they’ve had. Very promising considering they've had Kevin Long there too and he’s done well when called upon in the Prem this year. I've not seen him play at all this season because...

They changed the rules at the start of last season so the free kick is now taken from where he played the ball. Slightly alarming that professional footballers aren't aware of the rules of the game they play- makes you wonder if they're aware they have to kick the ball between the posts at the oppo...

Silkyskills1 wrote:Thanks for that. Sorry to be pedantic on this but if,say, Jack Cork amassed more than 10 cautions before the end of the season would it have any bearing on the start of next season?

It’s 32 games for any 10 game suspension. According to the FA he’s on 8. After that it’s 15 yellows.

ClaretTony

Didn't think he could have long left but wasn't expecting that news today.

Gareth Barry, albeit out injured, was out in a nightclub on Friday night. That wouldn't happen at Burnley, nor would we be nicking taxis on a training camp. They have clearly undermined him from day one.

Jay. Since August 12. 134 apps.
Charlie. Since August 13. 120 apps.
Danny. Since August 15. 10 apps.
They have all had their injury problems.

Jay's not been troubled by injury for some time though - the other two have.

Just on a more cautionary note, Jack Cork was booked. Is ten yellows still resulting in a two game ban? Think Cork has nine now but stand to be corrected. Thanks. The cut off is 32 league games and we've played 31. Cork is currently on 8 with Barnes & Bardsley on 7 - so with one game to go we are c...

I think tight fitting shirts might have a detrimental effect on the sale of replicas

I think we've moved on now. Our squad, our team, is considerably stronger when any of Jay Rod, Austin, Ings were with us. Two of those three don't play much either because of injuries.

All three were terrific for us, don't think anyone could question that, but we move on.

ClaretTony

Nor do I and there is a strong chance he doesn't make it at Spurs. But when we signed him on loan Spurs were clear there was no permanent signing clause in this agreement and I think that says something about how they currently view him. I don't have any details of the loan contract so wouldn't kno...

It's ridiculous. We were discussing this, not in relation to Northwich, yesterday on the way to West Brom. It was more relating to local football where teams are now having to play three and four games a week. We thought it might be time for some of these leagues to consider a summer league rather t...

And I was in the away end behind the goal and I am mystified anyone could have thought NKoudou had a better game than Lennon.

ClaretTony

Yeah, I only noticed as lots were getting pictures with him so I had a good chat with him at half time. He was very open and speaking to lots of supporters. I’ve sat with John B in the away end and I’ve seen Brian Nelson in there too previously. Never previously seen the chairman though. Good on him.

ClaretTony

Also regards yesterdays match, sometimes just having a player with pace on the flank like Lennon and GK it can unsettle the opposition before a ball is kicked and influence the way they set up during the match. They were so deep 1st half they really obvs were fearful of the two pronged attack but t...

I think he’s been fantastic for English football but he probably should have gone by now and would then not have faced the criticism he does now. He’s as stubborn as a mule and appears hell bent on continuing.

He’s probably not up his own arse like Bamford but our squad are really tight knit which is a massive strength.

You’re right, he did see a lot of the ball.

Away again next week. I know its a long time since the league fixtures automatically scheduled home and then away matches. But why do they bunch two home or away fixtures together? Often it can mean two home fixtures in four days and then over three weeks without a home game. I can see the down sid...

I was stood next to the Chairman and his son yesterday in the away end and he was beaming with pride as the 'Were all going on a European tour' rung out from the away end.

Whether the rule is a good one or a bad one, it's been in place since June 2016 so you would have hoped at least that the players understood it.

Too hard to judge off one showing what we should be doing.. In any case Spurs rate him enough not to want to sell. I don't know Pochettino's plans so couldn't comment on that. I do take the point of not judging on one showing but he had so many opportunities yesterday and wasted virtually all of th...
