You had obviously never watched him or seen him in glimpses. I had seen him live possibly 5/6 times and a fair bit on TV due to Leeds always being on. Yes last season he had a good season as the focal point of an attacking Gary Monk side, much like Bony at Swansea. Before that whenever I had seen h...

If Bournemouth carry on not playing Lewis Cook I would be putting a cheeky bid in for him also. Possibly Pontus as a back up centre Half too

My apologies if you are reading this Chris. I had wrote you off before we signed you. Thought you were nothing more than a big lump up front. Wow how wrong was I. Your touch and link up play at times was sublime last night. Such fantastic awareness and a true outlet for quick and direct play (not lo...

I see. Well if all we have to discuss ( moan about ) is the recruitment process of a 3rd choice keeper, things are going better than all could have ever imagined. I know....amazing times at The Turf. Just hope SD stays and decides to build the club bigger than any of us can have ever imagined. I me...

Ahh right cheers, thought he wouldn't have been turning down a premier league football club due to other offers, after being released by PNE. He's no spring chicken. It's surprising any young GK get through to first teams, if all clubs use an experienced one to play in the under 23's. No wonder the...

Always been solid in the prem. A few doubts that he may be a little too old but he is in great shape and is one of the reasons for our growth into a squad rather than a team.

Cleveleys_claret

As regards goalie what dont people understand about needing a gk with experience that plays with the U23s. That is what they are signed for. Maybe not good enough for 1st team but good enough to instill confidence to a young u23 backline.

Cleveleys_claret

I struggle to believe we couldn't have signed him the summer if we really wanted him. Let's not forget he was released by PNE, so highly doubt he would have turned a premier league move down. Anyway it's irrelevant. I may be wrong but I am sure he has alluded to outside issues being the reason he d...

I was always led to believe that you start the game with your best players. We didn't today. To a man, they were faultless. Whoever our best team was, it wouldn’t have done better. I agree but and its a big but ...... if we do that the trust in the group for SD can go. Looking in how would Taylor v...

Cleveleys_claret

We need a number 10. Hendrick has done okay but we need someone who can produce a bit of magic. Like Sigurdsson at Everton. Problem is the finished article cost a fortune. Hopefully we have someone in mind and are doing intensive scouting on them ensuring their personality matches that of the group....

Cleveleys_claret

A question for any that watch our development squad matches. Do they defend in the same way as the first team as to protect the GK and narrow angles. Was wondering as not many clubs do this and seems to me to be one of the main strengths SD has instilled in the team. Would be nice to think that SD w...

Looking good so far these two........fingers crossed they stay in for a few more hour and build. Will set us up well for the rest of the series

The players aren't vegan.....its just they are not given what they want at the club cafeteria....hence the photographs of them all stood outside the local Greggs eating sausage and bean pasties and meat and potato pies with the manager

Not a dig? Don't understand that comment. The points are awarded to the players who finish in the top four places in the mom vote and the player ratings, I don't decide them. Well i may often come across as being a bit arsey with yourself at times. I hadnt realised that the cup matches were include...

Time to cut all ties with this joke of a sponsor. No need for the unfunny 'bantz'. Hope Garlick tells them where to shove their money tomorrow.

Zidane to be sacked in the morning.

Now I have to say I wouldnt mind Dyche going there as he is obviously going to be linked to the job

After the padiham comeback the other day it got me thinking of us and our comebacks. My fave being at Oxford with Davis and Weller scoring late on. But my question is have we scored two last minute/ injury time goals to draw or win a match. I vaguely recall or I dreamt it listening to radio lancs ma...

Defour is playing like a warrior this season. The belief SD has instilled in him in preseason has been a key factor. His tracking back has been a joy to watch this season. He tracked back last season but often didnt make the tacle. Last night there were two massive moments which showed this new grow...

Cleveleys_claret

I dont believe that Dyche is the kind of person to leave a club during a season leaving the club in the lurch. Alrhough I could see him possibly leaving whilst leaving the rest of the management team in place. I can see him saying to Woan or even Duff "nows your chance". The structure is in place, t...

Watching on NBC. Main guy just said "will have highlights after the break...which wont be long" inferring because it was 0-0 it had been a boring match. I have really enjoyed it. Not many chances but fast and hectic. Showing another way we can play when needed.

As well as we have played..... The Ice Man has been atrocious. Hendrick not far behind but nice link up play late on

Fleetwood used to announce on average 2000 more fans than were on. This was when they got into the football league. It was a way I was told of cheating the FFP rules. It enabled them to get in players on higher wages and was part of the reason they soon got promoted.

To be truthful I kind of expect the lower clubs to get most airtime. We are in the top flight and have coverage in many more places. If it was reversed I would expect the same although I know it didnt work like that in the past. Not in the know but clubs lower down surely have better links and utili...

Wonderful interview. Really gets the club and isnt a manager that will chase the pound notes for the sake of it. At times whether it was the lighting I had the feeling SD had tears reminiscing. Often said I can see in 10/15 years many clubs being managed by ex burnley players of his reign. Hearing t...

Hypothetical question....if whilst Clarke was drunk driving he hit your child would you accept his defence of suffering from depression? My lack of empathy towards him is his lack of regard for anyone else. I mean he does a magazine cover mocked up and then mentions the lorry driver. I am sure that ...

Also was it depression that made him bully Wade Elliot and constantly make homophobic comments to him?

How is it ignorant to question things? Instead of just constantly accepting that someones actions are caused by depression. Depression surely shouldn't define a person

Cleveleys, you're on to a loser here old boy. Best not to fan the flames. Though I wonder if Carlisle would have the support of many here if he had never played for us. Yeah I know.

Why does anyone do after dinner speaking? Probably because they enjoy recounting stories , the laughs and the memories. Yes they get paid, but to some it's a way of holding on to their past.

His own foundation which will never open you mean. Only 3% of the money required to set it up raised in over a year since its birth.

As has been pointed out, he has his own foundation. He regularly speaks out about mental health issues, and if this helps in any way someone who is feeling depressed or whatever, then surely that can only be a good thing, no?
