Messagboard panic starting again..... what did Finn Allen do? Played a shot, got it wrong......

Relax, and enjoy the game, whatever happens.

played a ridiculous shot after losing a wicket, put his team under unnecessary pressure. Now look...

Braindead batting

KRBFC

Incredible mini collapse, just play the ball around and win

KRBFC

What on earth was Allen doing ?

KRBFC

They've got some very good players Brighton, no idea why they're so bang average every year.

KRBFC

What on earth makes you think it gives them an extra £50m to spend - it will include a fair amount of conditional payments (including things lije Champions League Qualification and trophy wins) and the base fee will not all be paid up front, the revenue will be booked but the cash will not appear a...

To be fair that’s as reliable source as you get. I hope it happens

Who's the source?

there's amateurs at the Olympics!!

...when did that start?

Boxing is for amateurs, there's been quite a few who purposely haven't turned professional so they could compete at the Olympics.

KRBFC

Nowhere near

KRBFC

Just had a cheeky 20 at 11/4

KRBFC

Dyche just been on the races, I assume the owner is a Burnley fan?

KRBFC

arsenal agree to pay £50m for Brighton's Ben White https://twitter.com/SamJDean/status/1416143372197285892 Not bad value that really, he could stay at Arsenal for 10 years and he'll only get better and he's very good right now. He certainly improves them now, takes up one of the 11 spaces, long term.

KRBFC

The 2014 silver away kit is one of my favourite shirts of all time, masterpiece.

KRBFC

We are badly 2-3 short at the minute so ask again at the end of the window. However I'm excited for real football to be back, it's not been the same without fans.

KRBFC

Imagine actually saying Hudson Odoi has no dribbling skills, it's literally the strongest part of his game

KRBFC

Tuchel has him sussed thats why hes no longer a regular for Chelsea pace for fun but no crossing ability,no dribbling skills and too greedy another media over hyped player file under Tammy Abraham Great as a 16 yr old in Chelsea's youth team but too lazy to learn new skills that would have him deve...

Good enough to play for England but not Chelsea, kind of sums things up if you think about why are some of players aren’t progressing to the full potential.

He's made appearances for Chelsea and appearances for England, not first choice at either.

I’m not really sure what your point is, do you think he’s even close to being in contention?

What is your point? He's 20 year old with potential and previous England caps, the reason he's not in the England squad is because of lack of game time at Chelsea, that could change.

KRBFC

JAHANBAKHSH Possibly going to Feyenorrd. Brighton paid £17m for him and got nothing. Their big spending scattergun approach doesn’t seem to work. Another from the Dutch league with a great goal scoring record, reminds me of Alfonso Alves who Boro bought. Some top players have come from the Dutch le...

KRBFC

I can't imagine that the racism directed at our players would endear anyone to England when they have other options. Money dictates what people do and where footballers work. I'm pretty sure Andre Bikey said he had to carry a gun in Russia due to the racist abuse, it doesn't stop all black football...

KRBFC

I love the fact we continue to surpass all external expectations though. The bookies underestimate us every season which makes me a small fortune for a start. Let them continue perceiving us as minnows. It makes for great entertainment. They don't underestimate us, nor do they continue to perceive ...

KRBFC

Needs a good loan move, a club that needs a right winger with pace

KRBFC

But yeah, in my head Burnley and Barnsley are pretty much the same club. Any stats about records before the 80s or income level this season leave me cold. That's just how it is. Then which stats do you consider to make them pretty much the same club? A few poor years in the lower reaches has really...

But you need to remember for anyone under the age of 50 their experience of Burnley FC prior to us getting to the prem is that we are similar to Barnsley.

in what way? I think they've only played 1 year in the top flight in their entire history. 7 of the last 15 years in League One.

KRBFC

In terms of the premier league finances/fan base we are a small club. That’s what the new owners want to change. When you are comparing against the likes of Liverpool/Man United the landscape changes but I don't care how much money Brighton have, they are not a bigger club. We are held back with Bu...

KRBFC

The small club stuff is from our fans, I have no idea why our fans think we're this tiny nothing club. I guess it gives some kind of extra satisfaction to believe we're a League One club playing in the PL but it's simply not true.

No Phillips….. I salute you!!

Realise I left out Sancho, had to put him back in for Eze. The Phillips exclusion was on purpose though

KRBFC

Pope, Pickford, Ramsdale
TAA, James, Maguire, White, Guehi, Stones, Walker, Konsa, Shaw, Chillwell, Lamptey
Bellingham, Mount, Rice, Foden, Saka, Grealish, Sancho, Curtis Jones, Hudson-Odoi
Rashford, Kane, Greenwood

KRBFC

Interceptions are great, but as you say, what follows is important. I’ve certainly seen glimpses from him, I just hope that he can now push on and really earn a starting place. As I said, I think this is something of a make or break season for him, at this level - he really should be earmarking a p...

KRBFC

It must have disappeared then because there was no correction by you. Anyway, not that it matters just a bit of a strange statement to make up. I didn't make it up, I remembered it wrong. He didn't refuse to play, he was subbed at Sunderland due to being affected by transfer gossip where Dyche said...

When did Ings refuse to play for us?

He didn't, I corrected myself in the follow up post. It was Dyche who said he should've left him out

KRBFC

It was Sunderland away wasn't it, when he got subbed off early for not giving 2 fooks

KRBFC

Not sure some understand what loyalty means. He signed for us on a 4 year deal and stayed 4 years. When you sign a player you are securing his services for that period, it doesn't mean the player has to move on when it suits some fans the best to ensure the club gets money for him. He literally gav...

Isn't Lowton integral to us getting crosses into the box?

His delivery isn't good enough to be in a 352 and he can't travel with the ball well enough imo.

KRBFC

we've all talked about needing pace and we've all talked (especially Dyche) about needing to keep the ball better. In reality at this stage of their careers are Westy, Cork etc going to improve in that area ? I'm doubtful and for me that is a massive problem for us I agree with this, I'd like to se...

KRBFC

Come on KRBFC, you claim to want proper football debate and then post **** like this. I have been asleep every day at least once for the last 12 months, yes. When we played with Pope Lowton Mee Tarkowski Taylor JBG Cork Westwood McNeil Vydra Wood we did well. Look it up. We suffered due to a poor s...

No idea but Armstrong is Finlay Armstrong who has moved up from the U18s

Did we not take a different Armstrong on trial though? A Scottish kid who's Dad was speaking about it, I remember seeing your article on it last week. (I may have got the surname wrong).

KRBFC

People writing off newly promoted sides? I'm genuinely not sure what to expect with the 3. I do think last season was the weakest PL in a long time at the bottom, the 3 who went down did with a whimper which is very unusual, normally 2 put up some kind of a fight. I don't know why we're discussing t...

KRBFC

I assume the ex Rangers lad is one of the trialists. Robert another? and the young Scottish lad Armstrong too

The starting XI isn't way short though.
We need depth, certainly, and it'd be nice to upgrade our 1st XI, but our 100% fit first XI would finish midtable.

Have you been asleep for the last 12 months?

KRBFC

Was this the same season we lost to Rushden and Diamonds? Somehow Papadopolous went on to have a good career after leaving, pretty sure he was in the Greek euro squad.

KRBFC

Pickford worked more than the Italian keeper in terms of chances created not that I remember that many clear cut from both sides, the subs changed it for Mancini definitely as soon as somebody started to tire off they went, I don’t think Southgate trusted our subs to play any great length of time h...

KRBFC

As pundits,ex players current and ex managers have been commenting Mancini made substitutions that changed the game, they ensured that we couldn't really play through midfield and hence dominated the game, the players gave it their all but fresh legs were required earlier. Do you realise we were le...

KRBFC

And if two of those names had Shaw and Walker, we’d be discussing a win, in my opinion. You have absolutely no evidence to back that up, Shaw and Walker over experienced natural penalty takers in Sancho and Rashford? :lol: :lol: You would be whining if Shaw stepped up and missed saying ''Rashford s...

KRBFC

In fairness every single player gave everything they had, in the cold light of day the difference was the greater technical ability of the Italian midfield and a very experienced canny manager who out thought Southgate. No it wasn't, the technical ability of the Italian midfield had nothing to do w...

KRBFC

I said elsewhere. You learn more about people in defeat than victory. Some proper bell ends about yesterday. Especially online. It was funny to see the flip floppers on here, sat there all tournament writing nothing but negative bs about Southgate and the team, suddenly they started supporting, aft...

KRBFC

What a sad state of affairs when the England team have reached their first final in 55 years and our players have to come out after the final and address racist abuse for missing a penalty. Southgate and the players should be supported for doing so well overall, not tore down and sh!t upon at the fi...

KRBFC

Rashford fooled an excellent keeper into going the wrong way. His error was to miss, inexplicably, what was a relatively simple tap in. He did everything right, Jorginho and Bruno Fernandes are penalty experts and there's method behind the stutter/hop run up, its proven to work. Rashford did the ha...

KRBFC

To be fair, everything you've said about my choices applies to yours. Trippier is a dead ball specialist and he should have been on the pitch for the shootout. Both Sterling and Shaw had the benefit of more experience and more composure, so it's not based on "blind faith". Rashford, admittedly, is ...

KRBFC

Rashford and Sancho are hardly novices. Both take pens for club sides (Rashford 3/3 and Sancho 3/3 last season). Also, agree Trippier had a good game but to say we lost control when that change was made is crazy. It was actually the opposite! We regained far more control when we left the 3-4-3 and ...
