£20m + of signings on the bench there and that's with Defour injured too.

JohnDearyMe

Still in a relegation battle in my eyes especially given our away form. Hopefully we'll start to address that on Saturday

Coyle did well in cup competitions for ourselves, St Johnstone and Bolton

JohnDearyMe

Think we can finally put to bed the idea that we've never signed a decent non British player from outside the UK

If Norwich's manager was to be sacked this weekend (which doesn't seem to be beyond the realms of possibility) i wonder how that would affect things?

JohnDearyMe

Many great roles noted above. Always like his performance in Watership Down. Added an extra layer of melancholy to the film with his voice

JohnDearyMe

Can't imagine him establishing himself with us in either top flight or championship given he's dropped down so far

JohnDearyMe

There's an urgent need to get in another centre midfielder now given the likelihood of a significant ban for Barton.

Find it quite satisfying that despite all their money they were embarrassing in Europe

He really lacks class doesn't he?

JohnDearyMe

No, still very angry. Robbed of another point that could prove vital in the relegation battle

JohnDearyMe

He's never gracious in defeat, only in victory

Touche, although to nitpick a little I'd say he was improving the squad's depth rather than adding something we don't already have. As solid as he looked last night, I reckon his main role for the rest of the season is going to be as it was against Southampton where he comes on late in the game as ...

Chris Boden is a nice guy and i think he's a good football journalist. Not sure why he seems to provoke so much anger on here from some people

JohnDearyMe

Any news on how his performances so far this season?

JohnDearyMe

Remember that well :lol: I had a 5 hr drive each way to take my daughter to her first visit to Turf Moor, thinking after 90 minutes of football that I had made a bad decision. Only to find that I had witnessed 'one of those moments'. Also that it had been live on BBC2 all along :cry: Brian Law's ba...

Away at Blackpool in the 90's. A Blackpool fan was getting interviewed for some BBC documentary in front of the Burnley fans and made the mistake of goading us. Naturally the Burnley fans responded in kind and the chap ended up getting arrested. Still one of the funniest things I've seen at a footba...

I didn't. Cost us any chance of getting anything from that game; thought it was a silly thing to do.

So why can't the turnstile operators have a pile of tickets, sell them, scan them and hand them over? I assume it's because they don't think the turnstile operators are capable of handling cash (or don't trust them). Jim Thompson would not be impressed at the state of the turnstiles if that is the ...

JohnDearyMe

Having previously worked on the turnstiles at Burnley I'm struggling to appreciate why they can't accept cash.

JohnDearyMe

Oh dear

JohnDearyMe

"well thought of within the corridors of power at Turf Moor"

Corridors of power...nice turn of phrase

JohnDearyMe

I get your point. It would just be helpful to fans who do need to book their travel in advance if it was clear when the announcements for televised games were going to be made throughout the course of the season

JohnDearyMe

I know, just what are Sky playing at pumping our club full of cash since May 2009 and then expecting us to change the date of a fixture without checking the timetable for the trains. You'd think they'd give us a least a months notice, oh hang on a minute... Unfortunately due to how many train compa...

After visiting their new ground in December i couldn't help but feel sorry for West Ham fans. The owners got a great deal for the stadium which ripped off the taxpayers but for the fans it must be awful having to have that soulless stadium as your home

JohnDearyMe

Yeah i know what you mean. Can be pretty frustrating when it comes to planning weekends away when you can't get the cheaper advance tickets

JohnDearyMe

Apologies if it has already been discussed but does anyone know when the televised games for March and April are likely to be announced?

I'm looking to sort out train tickets to a few games

JohnDearyMe

If you're into that sort of thing I caught a performance of a show at the Minack Theatre on my recent trip down there. Outdoor theatre cut out of the rocks of a cliff above the sea. To be seen to be believed. Also helped that the show on at the time 'The Clockmakers Daughter' was brilliant. I've al...

JohnDearyMe

Didn't think it was a penalty either

JohnDearyMe

There was a huge phase of throwing folks tape, toilet rolls and till receipts etc I spent a full week ripping newspapers into squares for a game at West Brom only for them to confiscate them on arrival. I was gutted and that put a stop to me doing that again Same thing happened to me at Wembley for...

JohnDearyMe

Best atmosphere at an away game I can remember 7000 behind the goal in what is the best stand you can have. Terracing underneath the seats made sure all the noise carried and we had a further 1000 in the home stand. 24 years ago today, madness. I'd agree with that. I also remember there being huge ...

Lots of great options listed but that would have been in my top 5 too

JohnDearyMe

When he has time to weigh up a cross or pass i think he struggles. Far better when he has little reaction time and has to be more instinctive

JohnDearyMe

We are playing like we don't believe we are capable of getting anything away from home. Too much timidity yet again.

Awful performance against an awful team

I might be getting this mixed up but i think he was due to do it a year or two ago but it didn't happen. I stand to be corrected though

Didn't realise he had suffered such a bad injury in the past

JohnDearyMe

I went for Brentford but if the MK Dons game had been screened on Sky too I'm sure it would have got a few more votes
