I was sure this would be the year we'd sign him.

More chance of finally landing Andrew Driver this year, maybe we'll get Lansbury next year.

Wembley09

Looking worrying for the LB position.

Gathered hours ago Maatsen wasn't going to come, but was hoping we might have had some other targets that we moved on to.
With less than an hour to go, I can't see it.

Wembley09

Wouldn't have been surprised had that been given, very lucky JWP.
Definitely not complaining though, keeps them on 0 below us.

Wembley09

They're stood outside that terrace street entrance right now on Sky, I remember going there.. strange going up some stairs over peoples backg arden to get to the stand.

Anyway be interesting to watch a Luton home game in the PL.

Wembley09

Lokonga was at palace on loan it could be the case that he just wants to remain down south (London area) maybe family or other ties although bedfordshire isn't exactly that but it's a damn sight closer than lancashire. Didn't it break down over personal terms, I remember reading something about tha...

They are putting 2 and 2 together, Dodgson was always going on loan today

Think it was because a journo posted something about it earlier on Twitter, take it with a pinch of salt though.

Dodgson loaned out to Barnsley - good sign that a LB is coming.

Chelsea will still be trying to persuade Maatsen to move, they need it done for FFP reasons.
Not sure if signing a forced Maatsen is good or not, would his head be clear or would he still be thinking about being at Chelsea..

I’m still hoping for Eden Hazard to be confirmed

He's speaking to Remco van der Schaaf to find out how he got on being a non player here

Wembley09

there are deffo some people that would complain if we won the Premier League by 1 point that it wasn't 2 I always remember Stan Ternent bemoaning certain sections of Burnley fans, claiming even if they were top of the Premier League they'd be moaning. This was after they were complaining and booing...

He's signing for Bournemouth.

Yeah, I was responding to Ric who said he needs his head checking for turning down Milan for Bournemouth

I think Milan turned him down (that article I quoted was from 5 hours ago)

Wembley09

Anyone who turns down Milan for Bournemouth needs their head checking tbh I think Milan backed out of the deal.. AC Milan have dropped their pursuit of Patson Daka due to their inability to get the deal done in time and are now closing in on another target, a report claims. In the last hour we rela...

Wembley09

Good I honestly don't think he improves us. He left Liverpool an has scored 2 goals at AC Milan. Not worth it it my view. Jay can do that Yep, I'm another one glad he turned us down.. save alot of money that we would have been contributing towards his wages. He's been underwhelming for Milan, and t...

Not sure his own morale will be so good if he is still here and not starting any games

True, although I'd like to think he's happy

He always appears happy enough, like a level headed guy.. team player.
But yeah, with lack of game time who knows..

Wembley09

Taylor is so not up to it. I love how all these comments are made when he's rarely played for us in the last year. Once he starts playing again he'll be slated. So many clueless comments on this thread. TRUST VK! Yeah like I said, it would be throwing him in at the deep end.. to put him straight ba...

Dodgson set to join Barnsley on loan if Maatsen signs

https://x.com/jamessavundra/status/1697 ... 88387?s=46

That would suggest it’s him or no one?

Barnsley are going to be let down too then

Sky sports now reporting Maatson deal agreed

Sky have since said, that even though a deal has been agreed.. the player is leaning towards staying at Chelsea.

Wembley09

Give Taylor a crack at it for 6 months. If Maatsen was preferring a move to West Ham (if true) and wants to remain at Chelsea, everything is pointing towards him not wanting to be here. I think Taylor would be fine dropping into a back three and at left back, especially as we can use his experience...

Wembley09

Pull the plug now n move on if ian not keen. Lokonga going on loan to Luton. :lol: Definitely time to move on, his heart is clearly not on the move (seem Chelsea want it more than him) We don't want a player here regretting the decision to come, and wondering what could have been. Let him stay at C...

Bit disappointing so far. No new rumours amd god knows how many pages discussing Maatsen who now doesn't want to come. It's going to be a very long evening.

We've had many a long transfer deadline days, especially in recent years under Dyche and no budget.

Wembley09

SSN now reporting that Maatsen is leaning towards staying at Chelsea despite a fee being agreed.

Hes not.coming

See what the day brings, but I can't see him joining today either.
He will probably stay and see how he gets on at Chelsea, then if he doesn't break into the side regularly enough in the next few months.. MAYBE we will get him in January, hopefully for cheaper

Wembley09

So Chelsea now want less money for maatsen when they said he wouldn't move for less than 20m There will be add-ons, the deal will be no where near the reported £31.5 million Initial fee could be around £13m - £18m with the potential to rise with performance based add-ons. £2/3 million avoiding rele...

Charlie Taylor center back and Maatsen left wing.

I think Cape Verdes are two hours behind us?

In the UK summer time, yes

Wembley09

Did seem like Chelsea might be pushing the move, they publicly announced it (even though it's been reported Maatsen wants to stay)

Funny how Chelsea are bothered about FFP when the new owners have spent over 1 Billion.

Is Wembley09 posting from Cape Verde, he seems to be an hour behind everyone else?

So it's you who put the spyware on my Laptop! I need a better anti-virus to stop showing my address/personal details.

Wembley09

I don't think he is reluctant to move. I think he wants to move. It is more likely that personal terms have not yet been agreed between BFC and Maatsen. That can be sorted. Yeah I'm hoping so, just a little worried as a few are going around saying he doesn't want to move. Hope it's all just specula...

Wembley09

Says here he's reluctant to move https://twitter.com/JacobSteinberg/stat ... 6577102296

Can also see in the comments that alot of Chelsea fans want him to stay.

Wembley09

Would have been nice of him to tell Vinny at the start of the transfer window. Things change quickly in football. Maybe recently he fancies his chances at Chelsea? On twitter lots of Chelsea fans are calling for him to stay. The Chelsea fans are slating Cucurella's performance midweek, and want Maa...

Knob-rot.

If he didn't want to leave Chelsea he wouldn't have allowed all this to happen.

I hope so, I would be gutted if he chose not to come!

Wembley09

Yeah seen on twitter that sources are reporting Maatsen is not keen on leaving.
He wants to stay at Chelsea, but they want to reduce squad size with recent in comings.

Wembley09

Fanatstic news if true

Wembley09

Probably already been posted.. but only just seen on SSN that Harwood-Bellis gone to Southampton on loan for the season, with an obligation to buy for £20 million if they are promoted.

I would have liked to have seen him back here, I think THB alongside Beyer would have been decent at this level.

Wembley09

I was reading a Bristol article last week, basically saying that they were glad we were in for him.
They were worried he would go abroad and they would get a mere £200k in compensation, they seem to think they will get a 6 figure compensation from us, they reckon around £1 - £2 million.

Wembley09

Most of them in the CFS are the ones that used to sit in the Longside lower (closest to away end) always causing bother.

Same type that chucked the bottle at Joey Barton's head years ago.

Wembley09

Great signing, welcome Berge!

Wembley09

I wouldn't mind Bradford away. Short trip, good away game under the lights and expect a big following & atmosphere from the Clarets.

Wembley09

It seems from what Kompany has seen of him over this summer, he doesn't think he will be good enough for the Premier League (which alot of fans already think after what we've seen from him for us and Man Utd) imo apart from working hard, he's never looked good enough for the Premier League. Pretty s...

Wembley09

Is the gold badge/umbro logo to go with the gold sponsor W? Despite the still white W88 text underneath it.. Apart from the sponsor it's a nice looking shirt, nothing about it looks like Burnley though. Looks more like the casual shirts you can buy in the club shop. Doubtful I will buy any of the 3 ...

I do like it but can't help but think, that image is just missing some top hats and smoking pipes

Wembley09

Watching the Premier League summer series last night and saw a couple of Villa fans in the crowd wearing the W88 sponsor shirt.

Had to look twice, I thought it was maybe some Burnley fans on holiday taking in the game

Wembley09

I was shocked to hear the news yesterday, so young.

I remember him scoring that nice 1-2 goal for Ipswich in a thumping there years ago. Found it on YouTube

https://youtu.be/uZhzWsbmt7k?t=02m45s

RIP!

Wembley09

I don’t know for sure but I’m guessing this? Third kit 2002-03 Was that the midweek night game away at Ipswich, where Dimi Papadopolus (spelling) scored a last minute header in a 2-2 draw? Seem to remember Ipswich being really fancied that year, having just been relegated.. in the Championship but ...

Wembley09

It’s already evident after 20 odd minutes that he unsurprisingly suits Kompany’s style far, far more. Will he be a goal threat though? Probably not - but, he’s showing he can contribute here, for sure. Same at Man Utd, he worked hard but didn't look good enough. No surprise he never managed to scor...

Wembley09

Apart from Ingles, Burnley and odd Burnley player names.. I have no clue what they are rambling

Wembley09

I’m not a fan but it’s far better than on the shitty picture from yesterday. Actually I don't know now seeing it fully in game. The picture in the 1st post didn't show the full right side. I thought it would have been all claret with claret sleeve opposite to the otherside. Didnt realise it's just ...

Wembley09

Is that the new away kit?
Looks nice if so..

Wembley09

Maybe these fans are just human, like Wout himself.

Like the tantrum he had at Watford away, or refusing to play for us in the English 2nd tier.. as it was 'beneath him'

Everybody can act inappropriate/get carried away.

Wembley09

Can a club decide when to play their games, just like that? Can't find much on it now, but found this from 2012. Looks like they asked opposition teams to do it. "Southend United have revealed they asked all the other League Two clubs to switch matches at Roots Hall to Friday evenings. This week's ...

Wembley09

Hope they pull through, be sad to see another old club fall. I remember a fair few years ago now, when they moved most of there home games to Friday night kick offs. I was always wondering why they were playing on Friday nights, till I searched online. Apparently it was a fans favourite polled by th...
