Another vote for HAPPA but the Waggoners does nothing wrong with three sizes of breakfast.

Good for you. Just enjoy. For me gnocchi filetto at the Palazzo and a few glasses of wine watching Les Mis again.

Used Affordable skips in a business environment. Easy to communicate with. How important is it that they remove it quickly when full?

COBBLE

Such pathetic scoring against maybe the best in the world.

COBBLE

No criticism. I hope VK takes the good from this ( I thought sticking to our passing game at 6 0 down) was brilliant. Again no criticism I hope the owners realise the greater world they are privileged to be in and accept the challenge.

COBBLE

I don't need to start a new thread but I have to say it is the last 30 minutes that stood out for me. To continue the close pass and moves which define our play and success when 5 or 6 down was brave and shows how committed the players are to achieve something long term. Braves.

COBBLE

I thought Hull looked OK last night, trying to play the right way. The main gap in quality was the pace of Tella.

COBBLE

A small local auditor is not appropriate for the sophisticated and complex business as BFC in its various guises now is because potential investors will be put off by that fact. The finance structure is beyond that of a local business.

COBBLE

I wonder if we play at our most City like that they might struggle. But I just want a performance that makes potential players and investors, potential global fans and high value sponsors feel positive and keen to be involved. I would sacrifice a few points for that.

COBBLE

Love how what appears to be a new Burnley FC investor and US sports megastar has gone to be filmed with his involvement with BFC right outside Brockhall Senior Training Centre, for our biggest rivals. That must have been Ashley Barnes' idea. Love the guy already. 😍. (sorry ClaretPete001) My guess i...

COBBLE

Just shows. If the way you are playing gets you three ahead don't suddenly start playing deeper. By the way I thought the way the lad took the first 2 for Stoke was amazing.

COBBLE

Thanks guys you've lifted the message board to a brighter day. Any pics?

COBBLE

Not yet. We need to hold on to most of the loanees and add at least three, midfield, no 10, and striker.

In the same way that Mr Defour is destined to come back and manage here ?

Lovely romantic idea though I'm struggling with the song.

COBBLE

We will need to score a few as we probably won't keep a clean sheet so I'd start with the twin threat of Zaroury/Benson with Barnes. Tella and JBG on when appropriate.

COBBLE

Yes bad luck but a chance to see how we measure up against the top side in the Premier League before the summer transfer season. I am sure Vincent's young squad will run themselves into the ground trying.

Creative interpretation of the word "bought" there.

Lazy comments and lazy or maybe self centred reactions. Make the effort to watch the programme which generally most folks would to prefer to BFC be utimately owned by a group let d by Alan Pace.

Mm

COBBLE

The producers of this programme obviously wanted to keep the focus and message and about this form of life style/morality that represents their church. The programme shows a night scene at Turf Moor where his daughter is engaged. It's impressive. American venture capitalists do what they do but I th...

COBBLE

A short part of the programme covers Alan Pace and his daughter. Alan is shown in a very normal family situation. His daughter is shown getting engaged at Turf Moor. The Turf looks at night immense. I would trust this man. He is described as having bought the local football team.

April 1958 home vs Bolton Wanderers. 5 year old me passed down over heads and shoulders to stand at the front of the bee hole. A dashing Ray Pointer scored 2. I think past Eddie Hopkinson. 3-1 to us.

COBBLE

Just agreeing with most of you. An amazing, incredible young woman and parents.

If we do go up we will get eaten alive in the Prem playing like that.

I suspect that would not be our first choice team.

COBBLE

Well done Vincent and Craig. Got us through a massively tough period to face the bottom three next.

COBBLE

Pete keep to the technical which you have a contribution to make.

Where do you think we will finish next season. My estimate is 9th to 13th.

COBBLE

I know this is a ratings thread but I think the key to Ashley's brilliance is that he knows his role in a very fluid and clever system and he can do it with all these clever kids. He must love being able to show that he is a footballer rather than be expected to go on there and get the first ball or...

COBBLE

Do all our teams play in the same way as the first team or are there other development needs that take priority?

COBBLE

Not surprised but an opportunity lost in taking Woan and Stone with him.

City win home Rovers away. Chelsea win away Liverpool wins 24 pass goal at Everton. Heaton, Defour goal and several games at OT All outstanding moments and great pride.

Surely, every time he scores we just need a quick blast of Twine Time by Alvin Cash over the PA System.

Glad to sèe you are flying the flag for Alvin Cash! A clever record at its time that didn't inspire me to my best moves! Too slow.

Glad to see this post and the one by Socrates. It was quite bizarre to witness how a poster can be rounded upon on this board for expressing an opinion, which everyone’s entitled to and was actually supported by others as it happens - so he wasn’t alone in holding it. I always ask anyone I meet who...

She doesn't do the scouting, she doesn't do the coaching, she doesn't pick the team on matchday etc. She oversees the day to day running of the club and she's been doing this sort of thing for a long time now. If the squad is underperforming then look at the manager first. Correct. But she is emplo...

Are you referring to her time at West ham or something else? Time at West Ham. The amount they have paid for ultimately unsuccessful players leaves me astonished that she is still employed. Hence my questioning how she can assess others on the Apprentice. I'll distance myself from the other comment...

Er? I'll help you. How can someone who has presided over such a long decline and mismanagement of resources be qualified to judge anything.

I'd have him our squad.

Just saying...

The way we are set up we might as well stick with Jay. He is one of our own.

COBBLE

Did OK with his capability. He made Bruno's goal easy by drawing 2 defenders out of the way to give him a clear shot. My guess he will split opinions as he did here.

I never knew about Joe Brown and his religion. We seem to have a few strongly religious people in our ranks - Dave Merrington, Alan West, Doug Collins.

It would provide some closure if he did or failed to keep either side up. I bet Dwight is jumping with joy. I can't wait to see how he organises passing out from the back.

If we sign him I am sure VK and his team know what they will do with him.

Good catch from Muric aka ****** postman.
