If we get relegated this season we will be in a far more perilous financial situation.

is it worth the £2.00 to look at each of these documents or are they heavily redacted?

Chester I would be more than happy to contribute to the costs of getting to the middle of this labyrinth. You are doing important work here.

Well nobody knows for sure but the strong balance of probability is that we will be in deep financial doo-doo. ALK have paid WAY over the odds to make the takeover happen, and have loaded the club up with debt to pay for it. It looks like an enormous gamble. Credit where it's due, some of the ideas ...

25 million for Wood is the best piece of transfer business I can ever remember. And I remember we got 1.2 million for Wayne Thomas.

And I’m pretty optimistic that Weghorst will be an upgrade.

Of all major sports, the NFL seems to have the highest proportion of good quality, exciting games.

Bills - Chiefs last night was unbelievable!

I'm obsessed with Footy Scran! Sadly it really highlights how limited the Turf Moor catering is.

30+ years ago we played Chesterfield away and won 1-0 with Peter Mumby scoring. The pie was so tasty that I still remember it.

Pace has sanctioned the deal now because he’s desperate for cash to complete the purchase of the club.

Oshkoshclaret

If the declared intentions of my (season ticket holder) friends and family are any indication, this will be quite comfortably our lowest gate of the Premier League era.

Oshkoshclaret

I am not a fan of Lewis Hamilton, but he was clearly robbed today.

Oshkoshclaret

I'm about as confident as I was walking off the Turf having lost 5-1 to Everton.

Oshkoshclaret

I think he should try McNeil up there with Wood. #10 is supposed to be his best position. And if "Doubting Tony" would be so kind as to poo-poo this idea, that could be a really good omen

I heat my house exclusively with wood, sustainably harvested from my own property. Carbon neutral. Greta should be very happy.

I’m expecting this to go about as well as when Channel 4 invited Oliver Reed to a late night debate with a feminist, and gave him an open bar.

I've had BURNLEY in Wisconsin, Texas and currently Kansas...and make no apology for it!

Messi???
Flat track bully.

If anything the opposite. Stats shows that Messi has performed at a much higher standard against big teams and in important games. Compared to Ronaldo who has padded his stats with a lot of goals against weak teams.

The worrying thing about Darren Bentley leaving is that he's the one person that has been consistently responsive and customer focused.

Oshkoshclaret

Darren was nothing other than exemplary in all my dealings with him, and I wish him all the best for the future. It worries me that he's leaving. New owners will always bring change, but I thought he'd make it because he was one of the rare examples at the club of a staff member that was relatable a...

Some of the best penned in moshing frenzy behind the goal you’ll ever see when that went in. Only eclipsed by nob end away in the sherpa some years later

The footage from that game encapsulates the style of an era. Rolled down socks, tiny shorts, untucked shirts, Mariner’s mullet.

Southgate is the FA's wet dream in terms of being a media friendly yes man. For decades this has clearly been a more important part of the job description than actually winning matches and trophies. I would be delighted to be eating my words later in the summer but can't see us winning anything with...

A multimillion pound investment, but I'm sure there is a solid business plan behind it, in terms of increased revenue. I think it's great. Most of all, I love the statement it's making: moving forward, we will be operating at a Premier League standard. I see this as a calculated move to show in a hi...

Alan Pace comes across as a decent bloke. I think we know where he stands on this from a morals and values point of view. But he'll also need to look at it from a hard-nosed business point of view. He's got an urgent need to raise capital, to complete his purchase. That will be doubly hard, until th...

I think we should f them off and good riddance. And the Premier League preserve six spots and start-up assistance for fan-owned replacements - - Manchester Blues, Manchester Reds, London Spurs, London Gunners, London Blues and Liverpool Reds. As with AFC Wimbledon I think they'd carry a solid 90% of...

I remember the Darlington trouble well. It was premeditated, as the Longside filled up there were a couple of dozen strange faces acting suspiciously and they seemed to be wearing a 'uniform' of what I would call a lumberjack shirt. In the photo above, the lad above the T in The Angels advert is wea...

This is either a ridiculously low wage for the job that's described; or the correct wage for an admin assistant with a ridiculously over-inflated job description. Either way, this doesn't reflect well on the club.

If Anthony Fairclough was responsible for hiring Jeff Brown, that tells me all I need to know about this situation.

I hope we sign him, so he can be Claret Toney

Oshkosh, are you from Wisconsin by chance?

I lived there for 12 years but am in Kansas now.

I would also say that the person who is doing the best job of selling the club globally at the moment is not employed by the club and is not even a Burnley fan. Andy Jones at The Athletic, from his own curiosity and desire to understand his subject matter does more to tell the story of Burnley to n...

The analogy with the Green Bay Packers is not a particularly strong one (I'm from Burnley but lived in Wisconsin for 12 yrs). Their fan catchment area is at least an order of magnitude greater than ours and the salary cap in the NFL is a huge leveller. But I do agree that they seem to have achieved ...

The on and off field activities of our club are absolute polar opposites. On the pitch, we are about to secure our 6th consecutive season in the Premier League and have a team that has won games at most of the major clubs in the country - Liverpool, Man United, Arsenal and Everton to name 4.

That's the most perfect 'stanchion' goal I've ever seen Burnley score.

News traveled much slower back then. I got close to Bootham Crescent for the match, and was confused that the streets were empty. Learned about the tragedy from a sign outside the newsagent.

Paul Weller was one of the worst players I have seen grace Turf Moor. He lacked pace, desire and heart.

I admit that I'm not rushing to buy the book, but that's harsh.

Have you thought of applying Tony?

Not sure anyone knows more than you about Burnley, and your relationships with other CEOs are clearly an advantage?

On the downside it might mean you’d need to jack this in.

I must say that was a world-class cast, Marple.

Football appeals to our deepest tribal instincts...we stay connected to those that we perceive as being part of the tribe

What Garlick and Banaskiewicz have done is morally no different than what the Oystons did at Blackpool. They've been less blatant about it but the end result is the same - the asset has been stripped and the money is in their pockets.
