Steady signing and allows us to let Darikwa return back to league one / lower Championship, now we have decent cover at rb

Better than Darikwa I suppose. Not one to really get excited about.

Very good signing. I presume Darikwa will go which leaves us stronger.

Its a steady signing.

I genuinely don't understand any other reaction than "good cover at RB, prem experience"

Lowton is 28. Bardsley will provide stronger cover for two seasons. Tendy isn't a prem player.
An upgrade at an affordable price. I only see positives.

Bloomin' heck, Dyche knows what he's doing. How many times were folk on here last season complaining or pointing out that Lowton was at fault for goals conceded? With Darikwa his understudy, we were left with an issue down that side.

Welcome to Turf Moor Mr Bardsley. Good, solid signing.

Cover in a position we needed it.
As I said on the other thread, I'd be much happier with him than Darikwa at right-back.

A solid signing. Hasn't changed my day but he'll do a job. More so than Darikwa...

Same with the Walters signing, experienced player who can do a job if needed and will be looking to push for a first team place to keep the others on their toes.
Now hopefully a couple of really good signing to come.

Defensively miles better than Darikwa.

If Lowton was a couple of years older, perhaps we'd be looking for more of a Charlie Taylor style signing. As it is, Lowton could easily be our first choice for 3 or 4 more seasons so would be tough to persuade and up and coming right back to sign on.

He's better than our current cover. Not one that's going to set anyone's pulse racing, but our squad improves again. No need to be disappointed with this signing. I just hope we have one or two signings left where we can say "that's an improvement to our first 11". I'd settle for one more in fact. Cork is the only one so far.

If it improves the squad which this does it means the team isn't weakened if there is an injury. More competition for the place should in turn improve the team. As long as we are not paying him a fortune and he doesn't mind being on the bench for spells I can't see a problem with it.

I think most agree that he's better than Tendy and, if nothing else, will keep
Lowton on his toes.
So squad strenghtening in this position makes solid sense.

Now for a centre back and that all elusive pacy winger and we're sorted
and as strong, if not stronger, than last season.

' I hope he is someone SD really wanted...not just because he's cheap'
What's not to understand. Daft comment. Do you honestly think SD would sign players he didn't want. SD please can you sign someone else because the transfer fee isn't big enough for some teenager to w*nk over.

2/3 more and we will be looking strong

We are signing proven premiership players and people still moan. Granted they may not be coming from the so called big teams but we are Burnley don't forget. We are getting together the strongest squad we have ever had. Good bit of business i believe.

Never played below PL since 2008 with 225 appearances but some say he's not good enough for us. We are coming on!
Wayne Rooney thinks he'll add some punch.

ok, to simplify it for blackrod [as he seems to have sh1t for brains]. was he SD's first choice, second even. were they deemed too expensive for us so we had to settle for someone cheaper.
