Let's hope that whatever is going on is worth the wait. We have a team capable of getting results and you know what - the international break has allowed time to be spent on our shape and getting players back so hopefully we can start our season tonight with a nice win. True , but you wonder just h...

It somehow combined the jokes about the Chairmans name with the fact he may he a stumbling block

"stinking block "

Surely we now at least know that the " Theres nothing happening, its a load of nonsense " brigade have been shown to be wrong by the Chief Exec's remarks.

randomclaret2

Perhaps he will be the first of our multi million pounds post takeover signings ?

I get the feeling that the people stupid enough to believe anything Daniel posts are the same people who voted for Boris Johnson!

I was hoping we might have a politics free thread about something that is actually of vital importance to fans of the club....

The 2 Goalies are called Holy and Savin

Chief Exec

randomclaret2

At least theyve come out and communicated, so well done to them for that

I see Matty James has gone from Leicester to Barnsley on loan. It seems like years since he actually played for Leicester. I had forgotten he was still there.

Not a bad transfer window after all. Tarkowski staying, McNeil signing a new contract, a solid midfielder joining the club.

randomclaret2

I'd actually forgotten the transfer window was still open, I expect us to sign nobody, so if that's the case I won't be disappointed. Now if we can get our walking wounded back in the ensuing weeks we could yet have enough to survive, and that's the number one aim this season now, 17th would be vie...

The problem though is he gets asked questions on a subject that is outside his remit. But you are right, we don’t really hear from anyone else.

His answers then become the view of Burnley FC , for right or wrong.

randomclaret2

Have to say I was very disappointed with Dyche’s comments on PPV today but he shouldn’t really be asked those questions by one of the broadcasters involved. He said he’s a football fan but I don’t think it’s possible for him to be aware of supporter issues. SD is the only voice from the club we eve...

Its " One club for All " dont forget folks ...

randomclaret2

Roy, you mention reasonable posters actually becoming increasingly entrenched and frustrated and I actually think the issue around almost everything that's being posted on here right now, is as much to do with us losing the first 3 league games of the season, POSSIBLY due to having what for us, wit...

randomclaret2

I think the frustration thats around might dissipate somewhat if the club itself was more open about the true financial picture, rather than having to rely on nods and winks from individual posters on here . I greatly appreciate the knowledge and information from those who understand the finances mu...

randomclaret2

That wide right position is a problem. JBG is to put it mildly , injury prone and shoving Brownhill out there makes us less effective centrally. Lets hope the club's decision to have no cover in that area doesnt come back to bite us.

Im not sure the Plane banner company are taking bookings from Burnley fans at the moment...

Much of what they’ve proposed will happen. Parachute payments being the big one that would affect a club like ours. What would we do with an £80m wage bill and no parachute payments?

Im not sure how you conclude from today's events that Much of what they've proposed will happen

Project big picture makes it even riskier us signing anyone on a decent contract.

In what way ?

randomclaret2

We cant keep kicking the can down the road indefinitely...an ageing squad, with lots of them out of contact in the next year or two means signings will have to be made.

randomclaret2

Another day, another pointless International

randomclaret2

Lucky lucky people

randomclaret2

Do you think we have signed any off that list this summer Tony ?

randomclaret2

8 first year scholars in the starting 11, and the team was taken by John Townson

randomclaret2

You can go round in circles all day long,but the fact is we have a squad extremely light on numbers, witnessed by repeatedly only having 12 or 13 senior outfield players since the resumption after lockdown.How anyone thinks that is acceptable at a Premier League club is completely beyond me.

randomclaret2

The squad that started LAST season ?? Were talking about this tranfer window

randomclaret2

Sounds like Boden is falling for the spin now...reason after reason after excuse after excuse why players arent signing.

Yes, and it had to stop.

I wondered why we'd only signed one first team squad player.Even though he's 31

Or the chairman doesn't want the club ending like some "last chance saloon" for senior PL players?

Half of our squad are over 30

Looks like its a " fingers crossed " season ahead

He talks about things having changed at the EFL since he was appointed, and I think we can safely say the same about his previous employers

That went well...

Good to see West Ham potentially being given a bigger say in the running of the game that their tremendously succesful history fully merits.

Jetting all over Europe for Internationals inclyding friendlies at this time does seem a bit mad

Wasnt the over-riding factor in all Howe's transfer dealings the need to cut the wage bill ?

Sorry, I misunderstood you Tony.I thought you were responding to Quickenthetempo' s comments about overhauling the squad

God help us if we do. I wouldn’t want to go through that again.

Whether its SD or another manager ,relegated or not, the squad is ageing and is going to need a major overhaul over the next 18/24 months

Im sure Ive read somewhere the game has been put back to the Monday, or am I imagining that ?

Four current or ex clarets in that lineup ... I never thought I’d see that.

And all 4 of them combined cost us something around £5m !

And how did that work out... we won the lottery yet 2 years later we were back at square one.

Maybe the question to ask is where would we be if we hadnt taken that chance and hadnt gone up that year ?

Shhh...everythings fine..

Youll find Will a certain element of Burnley fans who simply will not have a word said against the club.Those for whom Burnley Directors in particular are a breed above criticism. Incredibly such folk were around when the club was literally at deaths door in the 80s and they are certainly a vocifero...

Why is there all of a sudden a spate of posts claiming we have no financial ability to bring in players? Has Garlick finally broken his silence?

Wonder what could have given folk the idea that we have no money ?
