Re: New signings by Wednesday?

Think we'll sign Hugill, Robinson and a few other kno-bender players with the spare change we've got down the back of our sofas.
We can then stick them in the u23 development team, get them to wash our multi millionaire first team players ferraris and then maybe loan them out to the lashers.

In the context of the magnitude of the game, and the fact that both goals were scored into our own fans I cannot remember Burnley (or any other team come to think of it) scoring 2 better quality goals than we did that night.

Right up there with the best games ever as a Burnley fan.
