Biggest team's in the championship at the moment At the moment and in general are two different questions for me. Teams will see us as a scalp this season. Normally I’d put us around mid table but I’d have us in the top 3 for the upcoming season along with Norwich and possibly West Brom. If we are ...

Tbh is wouldn’t be that hard to improve on our midfield. If he has good technical skills, he already has a head start!

Really saddened by this news today. It’s come as a shock. I can only repeat the sentiments of this thread, a brilliant bloke who brightened away days up. I have lots of happy memories of him. Rest in peace Rocky.

Surprised our resident experts aren’t giving us the lowdown on Muleka and Bastien. I must admit, I’ve never heard of them.

Nor have I, but I have to admit it’s far better than being linked with an Andy Carroll.

This is something that has interested me for a while, as the great Yugoslavian sides were all but gone by the time I understood the game properly in the early 90s. Just listened to a preview of this on the radio… Lots of footballing stories to do with the breakup of Yugoslavia and the emergence of ...

Oh and a gk

Let’s assume those two sign. As things stand, where would we need to strengthen?

For me a back up left back, a cm (2 if I’m greedy), pace out wide and a striker. That is assuming nobody else leaves.

gandhisflipflop

I think unless a big club offers 40m plus, we should be rejecting. The only way I’d accept less is if they include an option of a loan back and a sell on fee for example - 25m and we get him back on loan for this season to continue his development

It’s an amazing film. It beats bohemian rhapsody for me and that was outstanding. It’s very difficult to play Elvis without coming across a joke, but he did it so well.

I don’t get this left sided cb and right sided cb nonsense. To me a cb is a cb

gandhisflipflop

Assuming those are the next 2 through the door, along with McNally, you would assume that barring wing backs, that’s the defence sorted and we can look to recruit in more attacking and midfield areas.

No surprise there.
I wonder how Bobby Thomas will do under VK's coaching, perhaps he'll step up.

Doesn’t mean he isn’t coming. Just not on a perm. Probably a loan and if we go up, look to either get him back or buy him outright.

And that's what it was

Would it be a case of ‘not being able to afford his wages’ which I would find astounding, or a case of him wanting extortionate wages to sign which would be more than we are willing to pay?

gandhisflipflop

Agreed Notts. Too many on here think it's like playing football manager. Very quick to cast off experienced players and think that these prospects are just going to slot in seamlessly and play wonderful attacking football to boot. Just because we have a big name manager. I fear a lot of people are ...

Failed medical sounds likely if we are willing to pay more for Ballard than McNally Just thought, if Oxford turned our bid of 1.75m down and asked for something ridiculous like 3-4m, then maybe we could have been negotiated up to the Ballard price initially. Either way, I’m happy that things appear...

Quite possible. Sounds like McNally was our number 1 target.

I’d hope that was the case, as opposed to mcnally being the back up. If it is, then I can’t understand wanting to pay more for Ballard than mcnally. Anyway, I trust the process.

Pete O Rouke says we are close to signing Luke McNally from Oxford.

Maybe the reason for pulling out of the Ballard deal then.

Always makes me laugh how much people love to quote the orient game but no one ever seems to say, "remember the days when we won the league".

This was always my argument when people referred to the ‘orient game’.

gandhisflipflop

Someone’s just posted on social media Jack Butland for 1m as a rumour. Just passing that on but would be a very good signing in my opinion.

gandhisflipflop

I’m just glad I got my chance to finally thank him for THAT goal at the supporters clubs end of season awards a couple of years ago. Top man.

gandhisflipflop

I can see him dropping back into the championship. Either that or go to rangers or Celtic where he will need to ‘reinvent himself’

gandhisflipflop

Makes you wonder in previous transfer windows what the real issue was when we weren’t signing anyone and we were kept being told that players only signed for us towards the end of a window because they want to see other offers they may get

gandhisflipflop

Plenty of talk as per but still no signings. I won't believe one Iota of the the speculation until the person is an actual claret. We have been let down and hoodwinked by the last owners so many times over the years that I have little optimism I have faith again, mainly because the owners name isn’...

Not when he won't play until mid-season.

That depends on how long he takes to get ‘Kompany fit’

As above. Are we expecting any new signings to be unveiled?

Yes, because I know he’s not good enough for the prem.

Wallace is good enough for the championship and could be good enough for the prem.

It’s not rocket science

We aren’t in the prem though are we?

There were a few signs from Brownhill that he could be a decent player. In the main, I’ve been disappointed with him though I wouldn’t write him off just yet, especially in the league below and presumably playing a very different role.

I think he will be a revelation under Kompany.

gandhisflipflop

Yet so far we’ve re-signed Jay Rod (32), Cork (32) and Barnes (32). Barnes chose to activate his extension - nowt we could do with that. Jay and cork are excellent players at this level. Do you seriously think when people mean buy low sell high that the entire 1-11 is going to be made up of kids? T...

I think certain people need to get used to the reality of our new business model.

This isn't about asset stripping to clear debts. The new business model is buy low, develop and sell for profit. I'm fine with that.

It’s a shame that some of the fan base are too dense to see it.

gandhisflipflop

I think had Jack cork had been selected more often last season, we would already know our fixture list by now. Superb player. Good signing.

Some bad ones. Leeds and Norwich away.. they should have seen us relegated straight to League One.

Describing the Norwich performance as league one is an insult to league one. I have rarely stood in disbelief at a performance, but I did that day, and the drive home was bad.

Trying to put them in a line up....

Sorry if I’ve missed something but who is this lad at Swansea people keep talking about?

gandhisflipflop

It’s double standards because you are having a go at fans for being ‘obsessed’ with debt, yet state that Garlick shouldn’t be anywhere near the club (despite being on the board) due to selling the club knowing that it would result in us being in debt. How does Pace want what’s best for the club any...

gandhisflipflop

Your double standards are quite amusing. You recently said that Garlick should be nowhere near Burnley ever again. How is it double standards? I don’t think he should be near the club again. He claimed to be a fan, and put his own interests ahead of the club. Why he sold, and what he gained form it...

Sigh all you want, but until Pace/ALK pay the money/debts back they will, quite rightly, never be accepted by many

It isn’t quite rightly though, is it? I’ve never known a fan base to be so obsessive with debt. Why don’t you give him a chance to pay the debt back?

The same owners who got us relegated with the biggest debt in the clubs history , I missed that when Pace and crew took over .

Again, perhaps Dyche thought he had enough with what we had. We didn’t improve the midfield under the previous owners.

Yes I know this but the other half is still owed to us from Newcastle and when due it will be paid to "Burnley" then we'll use it to pay towards debt

It will be used to pay of the people who have advanced the full amount.

gandhisflipflop

What ambition did ALK have? left Dyche with a **** old squad. 3 transfer windows are barely spent a dime net ALK had so much ambition, Pace said himself they didn't plan to add anyone during January until the shock departure of Wood.

We got half up front and we'll get the other half 12 months later the cheeky oil rich B@STARDS, any dealings from now on with them should be all up front or f off, they can afford it

We’ve borrowed the other half so we could get the entire fee.

We’ve had the money for Wood, haven’t we?

Yes I think he means minus the Weghorst fee we still should have around 12m of it left unless of course that was used in the 15m loan repayment
