Met Paul Stewart yesterday.

Nice chap and full of apologies for his time at Burnley. Said he was in a bad place right then.

Timing is everything

Down_Rover

I agree Arfield personifies everything this club about and how will we manage without him and Brady.

Maybe this is his agent playing a game. With Brady out it his best chance to up his wages

Down_Rover

I cannot accept Manure have got anything right until they sack the Moaner.

He is destroying one of the iconic (true, whether you like it or not) brands in our game, if not the game itself.

Down_Rover

What about Arthur Gnohere? Thought he was best French claret

Down_Rover

virtually every PL team is looking for goal scoring strikers. They are as rare as hens teeth at the moment and will cost far more than we can afford. With the three we have plus Walters and Wells we are better placed than most even if none of them fully fit the bill. Foe what it is worth I think Vok...

That is a good shout CT. Parking anywhere near the Etihad is a nightmare. I live in South Manchester and get home from turf Moor about an hour before my neighbours who park there. There is a shuttle bus that leaves from near Piccadilly Gardens and returns from the main road near the away end ( turn ...

He’s just been sacked. Does that make it easier or not?

Down_Rover

I think we have to be very careful. One of the reasons we are doing so well is the togetherness of the group which means players like Tarks, Pope, Long (to name just a few) have been willing to wait their turn. Bringing in players over others' heads could damage that ethos by far more than the perce...

Who is Woods?

Down_Rover

Pointless thread. I doubt there are many clarets who would swap Defour for Sigurdsson.

Down_Rover

Thought Taylor looked good going forward but looked like he did not know his role defensively. Surprised because he has been here long enough for the structure to be drilled in by now.

Noticed Defour took time out to encourage and advise just like tarks and mee did for Pope when he came in

Down_Rover

He was just papering over the cracks. The best team won on the night and by that I mean the team with the winning mentality. As the last 15 minutes wore away Stoke were content with a point and considered it a huge achievement. We, on the other hand, were still looking for three points. The body lan...

Can we have a tapas bar and a cappuchino lounge for the fans that get bored when we aren't winning?

Down_Rover

I've seen Alejandro Darío Gómez play a couple of games for Atalanta recently and he looks a class act. He's 29 though so maybe a bit old. However, he's a lad who plays in any of the front 4 positions of a 4-2-3-1. Good workrate and real quality on the ball. He's scored 29 in 107 Serie A games so no...

Marney = played no serious football in an age and prone, as we all know, to serious injury. Not even convinced he can make a proper comeback. Wells = would like to see him given a go but untried and doesn't come here with a great pedigree. Walters = I have questioned (hopefully wrongly) his signing...

Down_Rover

I hope the club are looking for potential cover for Brady but we have 5 or 6 games before a newbie can land so the priority must be to shuffle the squad first. If that works then no need to buy a winger in January and money can be spent on original targets In the squad we have Marney Wells Walters a...

Down_Rover

Dean Marney? Alongside Cork and Defour Hendrick out wide, Walters Wells might play a role too. We have a decent squad and would rather try these guys before spending on an unknown emergency replacement Whether or not Taylor is the man is up to SD and his team, none of us have seen enough of him to k...

Surely Club Vogue is sufficiently differentiated from Vogue Magazine.

What about Jeff HendriX?....

Down_Rover

Surely some of the players who could play in these games are out on loan which is why we are having to field such a young side. This is a good question. We have many loan players at many clubs, some of whom must feel isolated. If they were at home they could play in these games which would make us ...

... will the howlers and wailers start a Dyche to Watford thread.

Indeed, this might be what Dyche's agent has been planning.

just saying

Down_Rover

Will be a better option off the bench than Westwood, and he hasn't done much wrong

Betfair update. Only £7k staked today, nearly £5k of it on BFS

He is now slight odds on, SD is 3.7/1

Down_Rover

What may be most relevant is amount of money staked which is only visible on betfair.

£72k has been staked, £31 k on SD, £16k on Bfs and £11k on the other fat one

Bits and pieces on the rest

Btw Dyche now fav on beffair

Down_Rover

I read it differently in that many people think Dyche would be most likely to leave IF Everton offered him the job. Could not agree more. It is a huge IF. For all the right reasons most of us think Dyche is a superhero, but the fact remains that his best ever performance is 16th in the PL. That rea...

Down_Rover

Looks like the sensible vote is Sean Dyche then

Down_Rover

I think if Everton appoint a manager who's best ever performance is 16th there will be meltdown amongst the Everton fans. Same may apply at King Power.

Think Sean has a bit more to prove to those that live outside Turf Moor before he gets a job where expectations are as high as these two

It would be a bit of a hoot really. How much did a sell Keane for? Are you the guy who wrote the cheque?

I want Ireland to qualify.

If they fail we will have at least three players on a downer on Saturday compared with one likely non starter in Vokes

Down_Rover

The FA should ask our Board to recruit a new manager.

1. They have an excellent record in recent times, only Laws was poor, and even he might have been the best applicant given the perilous state we were in, and more importantly,

2. They would ensure the best candidate was not Sean Dyche

Down_Rover

Comparing the teams player by player does not answer the OP question. If it was a matter of who had the best players there is no doubt England are better than Burnley, but they are also better, on that basis, than any of the home international teams ( inc Republic of Ireland). Their record against t...
