It would be nice to have him play one last game in a Burnley shirt before he leaves, so the crowd can give him a proper send off (booing every time he touches the ball)

Deffo not free kick goals, Ronaldo is terrible at free kicks, his stats prove it, he was the 2nd worst free kick taker in Europe at one point.

Wow second worst out of 750m people

The OP forgot to add it was yet another penalty. I rate the guy but half of his goals are FKs or pens.

Free kicks and penalties famously not counting in competitive matches

claret2018

Half of of the Pele goals you just have to take his word for.

If football ever becomes as dull as rugby I’ll be the first to stop watching. Give me prima-Donnas feigning injury and rolling round on the floor trying to trick the ref over Tory American Football any day.

Let’s be honest who actually does 20 in a 20 zone. Its going to make barely any difference, but some people need something in their life to be angry about, and this is the latest thing the Mail has told them to.

The gent I sold a car too.
He said his work journey has gone from 20 minutes to 50 minutes most at crawling pace and his petrol use has gone up by 60-70% per week. That’s a massive increase in emissions over the 3 million people in Wales.

There you have it, definitive proof.

Bike tech has certainly come on leaps and bounds.

My mountain bike has wireless gears! I thought it would be a pointless novelty until I tried them, they work so much better.

Aren’t we about 18 months late to the party with this? I thought this stuff had died a death now after being widely accepted as being a con.

Is it really so crazy to pine after the best manager in many of our lifetimes?

I haven’t seen anyone mention Coyle.

At least I can switch it off and start making tea now

Ah well, looking forward to the championship next season anyway

Some posters would have Pope, Mee and Tarks playing every England game if they were in charge.

The one thing I’m sure we can all agree on is that it’s funny it happened to Liverpool.

To be fair teams have figured us out. They are pressing us to death so we don’t get on the ball

So you keep saying

Luton look awful, got to win this

claret2018

If we get beat it’s no problem, we can’t be expecting to win games against these top 17 sides.

The nation has lost its collective mind over this tree. Yes it’s bad and shouldn’t have been cut down but you’ve got people on here wishing harm to whoever did it, and someone calling it terrorism??

I hate to think how some people cope when actual bad things happen.

I had no idea Neymar had gone to Saudi.

Probably the most overrated player of his generation

Absolutely no chance this is some random clown who fancied a bit of random vandalism.

It’s a professional job that requires know-how and specialist tools. Somebody’s been paid by someone to do this, likely a local farmer/landowner who has got fed up with the number of visitors to the area.

What was the 3-0 defeat to Spurs about 5 years ago when Kane scored a hatrick, just before Xmas?

It’s the perfect example of the sunken cost fallacy

Playing well and not winning is a sure sign of relegation

Skimming through the thread and it seems some folk only ever want to see straight white men on tv.

claret2018

It’s a totally unnecessary and outdated type of show now, everyone gets their football news from other sources.

Interesting one - only Jay Rod remains at the club who has taken one for us.

There can’t be many other league clubs that can better that.

I agree there’s an inherent bias in decision making towards the big clubs as well as the home team. This isn’t corruption, we’ve been on the right side of these sort of decisions plenty of times. I remember Vokes blatantly handballing in the buildup to the winning goal against the then current PL ch...

Probably a fair result.

VAR clearly not working though is it

"tedious conspiracy theories" Serie A had matchfixing in the 00s. The amount of money at stake in the Premier League, for major organisations tied up in the clubs and for the broadcasters, especially with having fashionable big brand moneymaking clubs do well and keep the money flowing, is so much,...

It was a handball, end of story. Pack it in with the tedious conspiracy theories.

That Everton performance was turgid and I almost feel sorry for their fans having to watch that every week.

Almost certain they’ll go down this season.

Lol none of the stuff in that email is surprising or even noteworthy

Post of the thread. Absolutely spot on.

I remember when everyone laughed at degrees in “media studies”. It should be a mandatory part of the school curriculum along with critical thinking and modern history.

claret2018

Some people aren’t happy unless they’re complaining about something in their life. When there’s nothing to actually complain about they make things up.

Yes

Yeah the VAT thing is a moot point, it’s payable then reclaimable. Technically there’s VAT on transfers from abroad too, only it’s in and out on the same VAT return so no actual cash flow disadvantage.

If supporters were being paid to be there then there would be a strong case for staying until the end, but seeing as we pay to be there frankly anyone has the right to do whatever they like with regards to staying or going

You’ve left it a bit late if you want to move this weekend! We had to book a couple of months in advance when we moved recently.

I’ll dig out the name of the removals firm if you like, they are based in Burnley and were very good.

Edit- it was Craig Atkinson Removals

Burnley fans are in the media when they do stupid things, which unfortunately is a bit more often than most other clubs.
